Beyonce's best performing songs, both solo, and in Destiny's Child has charted better than Swift's top performing songs.

Because there can only be one person on top and people want to know who is superior. I used to think it was Beyonce but now it definitely feels like Swift.

Cuz that's the only way certain groups get respect in society.

Problem is that Beyonce is superior in terms of actual musical talent and creativity -- not to say that Swift isn't, but Beyonce is obviously on a different level.

Not as much respect as Swift, apparently.

Beyonce does absolutely nothing but perform. Someone else writes her music. Someone else choreographs her dances. Say what you will about Swift, but she does write her own songs. I'm not even sure Beyonce has ever touched a guitar.

No she isnt. Beyonce has never created anything. She only performs others creations.

Not to say that I think very highly of Taylor Swift, but she at least creates her own shit.

Beyonce's #1 songs have outperformed Swift's #1 songs.

I'm by no means a Swift fan, but her Folkmore/Evermore albums stand far above anything from Beyonce. The more stripped-back Singer/Songwriter folk stuff fits Taylor so well. Takes me back to talented artists like Carole King.

lol

so unsubstantiated rumors

Anyways, who gives a shit about this, both are highly successful but Beyonce's time has passed as #1 (though lets be real she never was #1 since she shared so much time with Rihanna who at her peak was dominant in a way no woman artist was since fucking Madonna)

I do. I said I dont think highly of her. But Beyonce hasnt even done that. She hasnt written or choreographed jack or shit. Shes a performer, nothing more. I think Swifts music is garbage, but shes at least picked up a guitar so she deserves more respect as an artist than Beyonce.

It is when you use it to write your own music and youre being compared to someone who has someone write all their music for them. Thats the difference between an artist and a performer.

Stripped back acoustic albums like Springsteen's Nebraska, Bob Dylan's Freewheelin', Joni Mitchell Blue, many MTV Unplugged records and of course Taylor's albums show true artistry when it's only your voice and a guitar behind those lyrics. Sure that involves a bit of personal taste, but an artist able to pull an album like that off gains a lot of respect from me, especially when they don't have like 8 people writing their songs.
