GP bashing Billboard after comparing Britney to Beyonce

[Doug]

Lmao, not even hating B Army right now for that, keep going girls, let's change the GPs perception of Britney, Beyhive did even more for their fave all these years being delusional till they made it 

[Rachel Green]

I don't think that's the GP tho 

[CJMCH]

Good job Exhale, now we are considered the GP 

No, but for real, the article was great, but there's not way this a "Beyonce era" at all. That part was pointless.

[Dynasty]

This is not gp tho, this is literally all Britney fans

exhale also used billboard's facebook comments as proof that that the GP was "over beyonce" after her superbowl performance this year. we all saw how true that turned out to be. the rivalry is stupid at this point, let both women be great.

There is no doubt in my mind that Beyoncé is not only an extremely talented artist in terms of technical ability, but also her marketing strategy and the way she has convinced the world that she's at least 7 years younger than she actually is. That's remarkable.

However, I'm feeling more and more like she wouldn't have half this much credit if she wasn't attached to the wtf machine known as Jay Z. 

Now, I say this as someone who is living with a hip hop Stan and total fanatic about rap music - JAY Z IS NOT A GOOD RAPPER, MUCH LESS ONE OF THE GREATEST OF ALL TIME. his success astounds me. Nas completely bodied him on that dis track, "Ether." I'm surprised he was ever allowed to show his ugly face in front of the GP ever again after a slaying so absolutely savage. 

I don't know what kind of Whitney/Bobby crack they're smoking at home, but something has lit a fire under their ***** to tell everyone on planet earth that they're THE GOAT and for some reason, the GP eats up this smug egotistical pow trip and gives them praise. They just have an attitude when it comes to marketing that overinflates the value of their work. (See also: Kanye West: Brilliant producer, sub-par rapper.) 

I think they just created a lot of hype around themselves by just talking themselves up and making everyone think they were a lot more relevant than they really were until it actually became a self-fulfilling prophecy. They faked it till they made it and it worked for them. That's all.

mess

I am ashamed of the comparison too. Britney didn't have a fake pregnancy, nor steal any song.

[anakinskywalker]

Where are the lies tho? If you had to name the strongest and biggest artists from the last few years Beyoncé sure would made the list. Britards overreacting, as always

1999-2005 - Britney Spears era (Britney may have peaked from 99-04 but her presence is still felt even in 2005)

2006 - Void; there is no dominant female artist in this year, although Rihanna is gaining prominence

2007 - Rihanna (Britney is prominent for all the wrong reasons, even though her music clearly influenced everything else that followed)

2008 - Beyonce

2009 - Lady Gaga

2010-2013 - Katy Perry vs. Lady Gaga

2014-2015 - Taylor Swift

2016- It's tough, but it looks like it will be Britney vs. Katy vs. Gaga vs. Beyonce

[sexisreal]

bash them B army... drag em' and show them who's the queen 

[Benjie]

We all know it's not GP. 

 

This is a really sweet and positive article about Britney but 98% of comments are about Beyonce, even if it's for bashing her .... that's kinda sad. 

It's the same here tbh that name keeps popping in a lot of threads. I'm a newbie here , so at first that didn't bother me that much  but ...

[blissfuloutsider]

Beyoncé was in a group for awhile to get herself solo... Britney was always solo.. She's been around twenty damn years. Beyoncé latest music is embarrassing hate to say it and I'm nowhere near racist but it was ratchet as ****!!

I mean I get what Billboard was trying to say. 

That article was very positive. I don't think there's a need to complain 

It's a great article.  It's just a shame that they had to use that headline.  They could have chosen any number of headlines celebrating Britney, but they went with one comparing her to Beyoncé.  That's annoying as ****.

Yeah I agree. Beyonce is very successful as is Adele so that was the point of bringing her up. 

Adele is much more successful than that overrated mediocre music joke.

[PervertedSaint]

I just didnt get the article at all.. What was the need to compare Brit to Beyonce ?
