Is Beyoncé the greatest artist of all time?

I'm not a huge Beyoncé fan (though I used to be in the mid-2010s), but yeah, I think it would be hard to deny that she is definitely one of the greatest artists of all time. Maybe not the greatest, but definitely up there. Not only her undeniable talent, but also her work ethic, the scale of her ambition, her perfectionism and vision, and her longevity and consistency. Personally I don't really relate to her energy -- I think she's become too polished and presents herself almost more like a goddess than a real person, she's not relatable at all anymore, and I find her perfection a little bit boring. I vibe more with the (sometimes messy) authenticity and rawness of Britney or Rihanna. But that's just personal preference; Beyoncé's status as a pop music legend is an objective fact.

Well said

One of. She has the talent in singing, dancing (although there are better dancers than her) and performing (she's not a great actress tho), the work ethic, the catalog, the impact (despite being inspired by Janet and Tina, she did have impact but not bigger), the artistic vision, deserves her success and has most of the things a talented artist possess. Deserves recognition but not to the extent the beyhive always pushes. She's already a legend tho but as far as being THE greatest.... Well one of.

Greatest? No

Top 10 sole female? Yes

I’ve always thought she was boring as a solo artist.

Destiny’s Child hit way different….I’m a fan of that era. 

[mean little lips]

I like her but no

The way y’all talk about her/ obsessed over her here it seem like it 🙄😩

[jamesedward94]

Is she ONE of the greatest? I would say possibly. THE greatest ever? Absolutely not. Besides Single Ladies, it’s hard to think of much she’s done that is considered iconic. Michael Jackson and Madonna could be considered for greatest of all time, but that is only considering pop music. You still have artists like Paul McCartney, Elvis, and Whitney. Hard to pick the best.

No that would be Taylor Swift, just playing the victim in everything.

Has enough money and idiot followers to be a huge bully.

I feel like Beyoncé has more of a narcissistic God complex. How the right wing media reveres Trump, is how the left wing media reveres “Queen” Beyonce. The Beyhiv can’t debate or use logic when it comes to people having a difference of an opinion in any sense when it comes Bey. Beyoncé is more political and can rile up her base. Taylor has a lot of influence, but she gets her fans to bully her ex boyfriends, not the general public.

I don’t get the Trump comparison;  Beyoncé isn’t supported by White Supremacists
