Beyoncé
This is when I say Beyonce is the first of her kind. She's surpassed MJ performance wise years ago. Just NO ONE compares to her and has done what she's done in soooo many aspects. She's expanded on what we think an artist truly is. It just doesn't make any sense how extraordinarily talented she is. We really haven't had a legend quite like her yet. She's broadened what we think a legend is. She's a whole new different breed and to the point where it leaves you speechless. She's like one of those historical figures you read about in mythology where they have one name but to the general public they have THOUSANDS they're referred to as. Because of how much of an enigma they are. These Acts really just have had everyone in a tizzy and continues to revolutionize what we see as music today. And it's just beautiful watching what this woman is capable. It's beyond words at this point.

WAIT WHAT!? YOU ARE LYING RN, WDYMMMM!? Twitter Hive truly is the most fun yet DELUSIONAL stanbase. I get so embarrassed reading their theories.

Act III is 100% gonna be all forms of rock, and will def include sounds from huge white rock artists too. Because most huge white rock artists were also influenced by black artists. There's no doubt that Act III is rock, but what grinds my gears are the Hive that are STILL trying to think/infer otherwise. Like I'm sorry but why is it that we ignore the very obvious signs while coming up with the CRAZIEST theories of things she's neverrr hinted. It's mostly Twitter Hive too that do this. I want her to have of course black influence throughout the entire record but I want her to be completely OUT of her comfort zone. Yes this is gonna sound very Beyonce but Beyonce is not the R&B girlie she once was. When I think of Beyonce I don't think of R&B anymore, I think of a blend of so many things. She's just quirky, and that's what I love about her.

Beyoncé
This is LITERALLY what I'm talking about. It's just a universal fact that no matter who it is, male or female. She ends up getting talked about and it's so f*cking iconic to see! I LOVE IT!!!

Beyoncé
Girl that's not my point, it's the fact that the hype is also surrounding Bey. When Bey releases 99% of the time we are concerned about Bey and only her. But for some reason everytime a different pop girl releases they somehow include Beyonce and it's just a testament to her cultural relevancy lmao. This ain't delusion girl it's straight up facts.

Better Producer: Taylor S VS Beyonce VS Mariah
Beyonce literally has videos of her vocally producing in the studio, even one of her producers that she co-produced with has a video that goes viral every year of him talking about producing with her and how she makes him an even better producer. But if you want BTS of every single producer that claims they produce, just for them to "prove" it then that's just null and void lmao. She and Mariah are in fact producers.

Better Producer: Taylor S VS Beyonce VS Mariah
Also the fact that we are even arguing whose better when it's Mariah is widely renowned as one of the best producers in music and Beyonce is literally labeled as #6 as the best producer of the 21st century. Like Taylor isn't even in the conversation. Y'all can start as many ATRL threads as y'all want and run as many polls, but it's literal fact about Mariah and Beyonce.

Better Producer: Taylor S VS Beyonce VS Mariah
Girl they are A lot of them use pro-tools and know how to use it on their OWN. Pro-tools is so f*cking difficult to use, even having the slightest knowledge of it is impressive af.

Better Producer: Taylor S VS Beyonce VS Mariah
100% Mariah and Beyonce. They're the reason why artists like Ariana are becoming more recognized as being phenomenal producers as well. Taylor is a good producer but she's so limited that I feel like it limits her musicianship a lot too. She's not a very versatile artist so it limits I feel what she can do production wise. She's more of a songwriter imo and that's okay.

Beyoncé
Man, Beyonce has gone ghost and she's causing MORE controversy than all these other girls that are about to release an album or are still in an active era!!! I can't!!! I'm loving this! Oooooo, ACT III is gonna be so INSANE, I CAN'TTT!!! Why are these weirdos still TALKING ABOUT HER!? It's so funny.

Bigger? (sales, streams, acclaim, tour gross, records, etc) Cowboy Carter VS. Mayhem
Mind you, it's a COUNTRY album. Cowboy Carter was just a bigger era/endthread. No one gives af anymore.

Beyoncé
Not only just black but of color PERIOD. Beyoncé has by faarrrr the most diverse fanbase I've ever come across in real life. I live in Austin and when it's Beyonce night at one of our local gay bars here it gets PACKEDDD LIKE CRAZZZYYY!!! Like people of ALL colors. Not only that but Beyonce fans are literally so HOTTTT OMFG. Seriously the Beyhive has to be the hotttest stanbase, I'm not even joking lmao.

Beyoncé
Y'all, as much as we love Beyonce and the power she holds (literally arguably the most powerful female artist alongside Madonna and Taylor, in history). Let's not act like Beyonce would release during Taylor's release. If there's one thing Beyonce loves more than music itself is creating a MOMENT. And no way in H*LL is she gonna ruin her #1 debut album streak for one of the most important albums of her career alongside Taylor. It's not smart at all and would completely overshadow the intention behind ACT III. Beyonce isn't "scared" of Taylor, moreso she is someone that is very intentional and loves creating a cultural moment based on the music alone. And she knows what releasing alongside Taylor will do and she's not about that. Beyonce would not release while Taylor is and that's ok to admit.

TikTok vs Instagram
As someone who creates content, TikTok use to be SO AMAZING, especially post pandemic. You actually had creative freedom. But now it's just on a STEEP decline and Instagram is easily taking the cake now. The moderation on TikTok has gotten INSANE and ever since they added TikTok shop, it's gotten so much worse. With Instagram you can actually talk about pretty much anything you want and not be censored. You'll still be put on the FYP, and tbh the DM feature and connecting with your audience is SO MUCH easier on Insta. TikTok use to be so amazing but now it's just on a steep decline. Instagram Reels are lowkey starting to take over and I lowkey don't mind. And it keeps improving. As much as I HATE Mark Zuckerberg, he did eat that ONE lil thing up.

Beyoncé finally an Emmy winner, 'Beyoncé Bowl' wins Outstanding Costumes
Beyoncé should've won this Emmy a loonnggg a** time ago. I'm glad she won it now and it was long overdue. The Netflix special ate and I'm certain the next one will and I can't wait for the Little Hemmhroids meltdowns then too. But I do want to say this, Gaga stans really are the most MISERABLLEEE stanbase. 100% you guys really are the most embarrassing AND r*cist stanbase I think that has ever graced ATRL. Y'all really think Gaga is entitled to everythingggg, huh? Even after YEARS of not only just flopping but making bad music ON TOP of the flopping? And she comes out with ONE decent album that didn't even see the Top 10 for longer than 4-5 weeks (could've been shorter if Bruno didn't do that favor for her) and y'all really think she deserves everything under the sun. Especially if she isn't even NOMINATED for it either, LMAOOO!!! Watching LMs get cocky about Gaga's current success is like watching someone drinking clean water for the first time.
