Why does Beyoncé never sell as much as Taylor?


Recommended Posts

It's known Swifties have racial bias but to say you stan someone because they don't have to wear wigs and they wear their natural blonde hair is kinda insane :hoetenks:

What? Mariah and Whitney are black and they are Legends. 

 

Why can't Beyonce achieve that success just because she is black? 

Whitey houston is the voice but her music appealed to  a lot of YT people which caused the black community to clown her. Mariah Carey is not black. Beyonce music doesn't consist of a bunch of dance pop and Ballads. I wish Y'all would stop this ****.

Where is the talent? And don't even BOTHER saying her songwriting because I've seen those lyrics and an 11 year old can replicate the same thing.

Great . Maybe Beyoncé will write some one day.

Taylor is simply better and more talented. 

Is the talent in the room with us?

We did in the 90's with Brandy

You having to go back 20 years to find an example, and using someone who clearly did not ascend to anything near legendary status is kinda my point.

Oh, now you are saying Mariah is White?

 

 

There are Black pop stars more successful than Taylor, so your logic is flawed.

Nah you gotta be one silly mf to have brought race into this and to be so confident that you're actually onto sumn about it. Taylor isn't about to open with 4x more sells first week than Beyonce because she's WHITE. 
 

I hope Taylor snatches AOTY right in front of Bey just for that **** and laughs at her as well. Pathetic

Anything that is more accessible, more mainstream, more white, more American, more girl next door, more digestible, will always outsell quality.
 

Example: More people eat at McDonald's daily worldwide than at Mastros just sayin :gayoncecat3:

Taylor is more relatable, people of all ages can relate to her not just girls and young women. Beyonce is too private for people and barely has any personality to relate to her. 

cmon now. :rip:

Honestly that is one of the things she's most commonly accused of, being basic for the sake of being relatable. Neither Taylor nor Beyonce would be where they are now if they were some niche avant garde artists.

 

Beyonce's latest project has done amazingly and comparing her to Taylor is like comparing Taylor's releases to 25

I think they're saying she's mixed.

Mariah carey is not black. Beyonce is a black light skin woman. There is a difference and you know it.

Being mixed and multi racial doesn't equal black. I love mariah but this is facts.

Taylor would get dragged severely lmao. That tortured whatever album was mid just like midnights. I bet billie album will be way better and more artistic. A shame on Taylor Swift for having back to back albums without an improvement. Folkore/Evermore was great but in order to appeal to basics she is back to making these redundant tracks.

What's funny about this discourse is that the explanation given is not a jab at Taylor Swift. The question was asked as to why she does not sell like her and the answer is simply that she faces more barriers because she is a black woman. I'm not even a Beyoncé Stan and it's clear that she's not as successful because of her race. 
 

Taylor Swift fans really want Beyoncé fans to say that Beyonce is not as talented as TS? Urm if so, then maybe we should just agree to disagree.
