Recommended Posts

Or is it still Madonna?

 

The number of times she re-invented and pushed boundaries with her music :clap3:

 

RnB, Pop, Hiphop, Dance, Country

 

We need a Jazz album next

Queen of Rock :clap3:

Of this generation? Absolutely. I actually respect that she went straight into full on the genre she’s experimenting with too. There’s nothing “pop leaning” whatsoever about 16 Carriages or Texas Hold Em. It is throwback country to a T.

She's following Madonna's path for sure, the genre switch is always better when its not out of desperation :eli:

I don’t want to call one queen over the other but I truly believe she is Madonna’s successor in that regard. It seemed apparent from Lemonade but now when you look at what followed (side projects EiL, Homecoming reinventing even her own hits and The Gift included) and the rumours of a rock act closing the trilogy. She’s going full blow genre change but making a project that will seemingly somehow still connect and she’s not afraid to do it wholeheartedly.

 

It’s not exact but there’s a loose comparison of the 00s being her finding her footing as a solo artist (80s), the artistic growth of the 2010s (her Madonna 90s) and the dance, country etc directions of the 2020s just like Music and Confessions. She clearly took inspiration from the best. Even more mad when you think she has 4 albums with a girl group on top of all this.

Exactly. She really went 180 degree with each release while still making it very "Beyonce"

Both of them are queens but let's stop comparing people (whether it be Bey, Taylor, Rihanna, Gaga) to Madonna pls it's a setup at this point :sistrens:

She’s such a creative mastermind. The way the genre-hopping never feels forced either.

 

Beyoncé definitely is one of the Queens of Reinvention.

No she’s not.

 

She’s just following Madonna’s playbook, which has already been followed by Gaga.


Her album is being compared to Joanne of all things. :rip:

By who? Gaga fans? The same ones who didn’t learn their lesson after they tried that with Chromatica? :rip:

Pop, r&b and dance are three different genres sis. 

 

OT: Yes she is of this generation. Madonna will always be the OG.

Nobody come close to MADONNA when it comes to re-inventing.

 

Beyonce did country already 8 years ago ("Daddy lessons") so if something shes GOING BACK to that sound, not re-inventing herself.

Very true - if anything she’s regressing.
 

and Daddy Lessons is a million times better than either song she recently released.

Madonna will always be the queen of reinvention, that’s not up for debate.

 

Bey on the other hand is branching her brand to other genres she dipped in in the past and that’s fantastic 

 

Madonna changed musically, physically and visually in every era. I mean, just compare Music to Ray of Light, the only song connecting those two eras musically is impressive Instant and without it you’ve got two completely different albums and artists metaphorically speaking.

No. Changing genres is not innovative but expected. No shade or anything wrong about that. After all, every pop girl is still walking on Madonna's footsteps wether they want it or not.

Country is a risk. It didn’t work for Justin Timberlake or Lady Gaga that well but we will see how it works for Beyonce .

Lady Gaga did house music and country music much before Beyonce. 

 

If anything Beyonce followed Madonna & Lady Gaga playbook.
