Kodak Energy Posted November 8, 2023 Posted November 8, 2023 Yes Taylor has more commercial success. But Beyonce gets a lot of disrespect on this site considering how legendary she is. With DC, Beyoncé is one of the top 5 biggest women ever in CSPC and solo she’s one of the top 5 in record sales. Plus she has more critical acclaim than any other woman. She’s also slowly approaching Mariah to be the biggest black female artist ever. 2 1

Critics?! Easily one of the most acclaimed female songwriters/popstars ever Other artists?! Countless of them citing her as their influence. Music Legends?! Just last year Carole King called her, her granddaughter, Billy Joel, Paul McCartney, Dolly Parton, Bruce Springsteen etc. Sales and streams?! To the point we can't make celebratory thread about her unless it's an out of this world achievement. Awards?! Both of them decimate the competition whenever they are in the running. Random People?! Almost 4 million people attended the tour. Commercially she towers everyone and as another user said, I don't know why Beyoncè was singled out, when if anything, every other female artist should be gasing up to catch up to a singer in her 20+ years career, who's still shaming them with no.1 single and album and 500+ million dollar tour.

Donquizote Posted November 8, 2023 Posted November 8, 2023 (edited) 100% YES. Taylor has been bigger than Beyonce since 1989. People who think otherwise are delusional stans Let's not forget also the fact that Beyonce needs 100 songwriters to write an album while Taylor doesn't need anyone Edited November 9, 2023 by Donquizote edit 2
Vixen Eyes Posted November 8, 2023 Posted November 8, 2023 yes and no. i think Taylor is bigger with the help that her fanbase is louder than Bey's. 1
TYMPS Posted November 9, 2023 Posted November 9, 2023 There are a lot more basics than bad ******* in this world. Simple as 1

You have about 33,000 posts, and I only have like 150. I don't think I'm the one that needs to be going outside! On-Topic: It was just an observation I had from the recent Hot 100 news. 6 1

For this argument to make sense, you would need to say that the majority of people would rather get a free coat from Walmart. 3
ALA Posted November 9, 2023 Posted November 9, 2023 Well yes I think it's going to be telling when the Renaissance film comes out. I don't think that will open to even half of the Eras film.

Badgalbriel Posted November 9, 2023 Posted November 9, 2023 Was this thread necessary? Everyone knows this. Taylor is bigger than everyone that debuted in the last 25 years. Why single out Bey? She's doing more than good enough.
Lagerfeld Posted November 9, 2023 Author Posted November 9, 2023 1 minute ago, Chris said: I can have 100,000 posts and it still does not negate the fact that you need fresh air. There is no correlation. More posts = more time spent on ATRL using your device = more need for fresh air. On-Topic: I find it interesting that Taylor manages to dominate the top 10 of Hot 100 with every album release. Don't you? 1 1
LoveInStereo Posted November 9, 2023 Posted November 9, 2023 Yes & the rationalizations in here from ppl acting like Bey is making high art in comparison to Tay are laughable 2 1
Chris Posted November 9, 2023 Posted November 9, 2023 Just now, Lagerfeld said: More posts = more time spent on ATRL using your device = more need for fresh air. Do you see me making stupid, repetitive threads comparing pop girls though? That was the entire point of me mentioning fresh air to begin with, inbred. 1

Sazare Posted November 9, 2023 Posted November 9, 2023 No Beyoncé is a deity. taylor has just managed to linger around a la Maroon 5, P!nk, OneRepublic etc… 1
Devin Posted November 9, 2023 Posted November 9, 2023 y’all itching for another Hive-Swiftie fight we are exhausted.
needs Posted November 9, 2023 Posted November 9, 2023 Taylor was getting lunch boxes from her mom when Beyonce debuted. No comparison y'all make will make Beyonce less impressive. 3 1
The Music Industry Posted November 9, 2023 Posted November 9, 2023 Taylor passed Beyoncé like a decade ago
