  1. There's so many iconic ones to choose from, but for me personally it's
  2. I LOVE the music video, and you can clearly see that she put A LOT of effort into it. This is 20 years into her career, too
  3. James_Joint replied to M A R C's topic in Base
    I remember when Rihanna slimming down use to mean a new album was coming. The good 'ol days.
  4. Not Lana's album doing the same numbers as an album that had a viral number 1 "hit", a worldwide stadium tour and an AOTY win at the Grammys And yet those fans use the no promo excuse
  5. I just recently discovered Balu Brigada as well as this song and I am OBSESSED. I cannot get enough of it, the production is so gooood and I LOVE the strain in his vocals in the chorus.
  6. I feel like indie pop/rock and more guitar centered music has been on the rise. Sombr has had a lot of success already, Malcolm Todd has been on the rise, Domenic Fike is having a breakthrough with "babydoll", with other artists like Steve Lacy,Omar Apollo, and Mk.gee having a similar sound and have all been on the rise. Justin Bieber's latest albums and songs like "daisies" also have that sound, not to mention Charli just released a "rock" influenced album and many predict Beyoncé's upcoming album will follow the trend as well.
  7. This is the first time I actually watched anything related to this girl bc I assumed she'd be terrible, but she's more insufferable than I could've imagined.
  8. Single ladies or 3, they both seem forgotten, and 3 has aged better while single ladies was bigger at the time. Rude Boys replay value even after all these years is insane though. She really made timeless music.
  9. I can't lie, I always questioned the timeline of his backstory and if it was being exaggerated in an effort to offset his straight-cis-white-male privilege. For example, he says he was homeless as a teenager, but we also know he had millions of followers on social media as a teenager. This is sad and traumatic though, I couldn't imagine losing both parents while so young.
  10. I would say Beyonce, as she's the only one who the media and publications condition the public to believe they're supposed to like, or there's something wrong with them. That's why unless it's made up to push a narrative, nothing she does is actually controversial, risky, or polarizing. People feel like they're allowed to not like artists like Rihanna or Taylor, whereas Beyonce is off limits.
  11. Atrl ignores him because he's a man, and others ignore him because he sings in Spanish, but imo he really is the modern day King of Pop, and Un Verano Sin Ti is the modern day Thriller.
  12. I didn't say writing credits have anything to do with vocal credits, I was pointing out how those artists contributed both, and didn't receive credit as a feature. I don't expect my points to be understood by you, though. It's not your fault, sweetie
  13. So do you think Charli XCX should be officially credited as a feature on "Same Ol Love", or Taylor on "This Is What You Came For", or Meghan Trainor on "Ain't Your Mama"? And they helped write all of those songs, so Beyonce actually contributes less than all of those examples But HFTW is one thing, "Pink + White" shouldn't even be brought up in this conversation. I've heard that song so many times in the last 10 years and only just now when I listened to it for the sole purpose of trying to hear Beyonce, did I hear her
  14. Not her audio presence being so minimal that you need to watch the music video to see that she's contributing
  15. Im not surprised at all. Her older music has aged terribly, and her new music is terrible upon first listen.
  16. Imagine thinking streams=impact By this logic, is Dance Monkey more culturally impactful than Break My Soul?
  17. She should remix "card declined" and "yeah" by collaborating with the version of herself that writes more lyrics.
  18. Diet Pepsi by Addison Rae, which peaked at #54 on the Billboard Hot 100, currently has 647,044 daily streams on Spotify. This is more than the daily streams of every Beyonce single released this decade, combined. Keep in mind, this includes two multi-week number one peaking songs from two number one peaking albums, that are argued by many to be some of the most culturally impactful albums of the decade. Diet Pepsi - 647,044 Break My Soul - 73,2254 Cuff It - 167,670 Virgos Groove - 30,774 America Has A Problem - 38,008 Texas Hold Em - 196,594 16 Carriages - 24,317 II Most Wanted - 31,417 Combined Total - 562,034 We should consider promotion, as Addison supported her single with a music video and a headlining tour that included theaters and many arenas, whereas Beyoncé's singles were only supported by two worldwide stadium tours and numerous Grammy awards. Are you surprised? Or was Diet Pepsi truly just an underrated cultural force, in hindsight? discuss. Disclaimer: This is not a question being asked to shade Beyonce or her daily streams in ANY way whatsoever, but rather to highlight the cultural impact of Diet Pepsi, as few artists come to mind like Beyonce when it comes to cultural impact.
  19. Break My Soul Cuff It Texas Hold Em Stuck Wit U
  20. And then if we ask why 15 other people are credited for writing the song, they'd say "Beyonce asked her assistant for a water bottle while she was writing the song and Beyonce gave her a writing credit."
  21. She's the biggest nepo industry plant we've literally ever seen. She never even made music before last year and she's 27. Were you paid to post this thread?
  22. This girl is 27, literally NEVER made a song before 2025, no musical background whatsoever, and her first live shows were at large festivals. I'm convinced everything including the comments on her videos are 100% bots/paid propaganda. It could not be more obvious.
