If you really think Beyonce will be around in 20 years I have a bridge I want to sell to you. She is not on P level talent wise and I don't think she is going to have the ability to be around in 20 plus years. Again, I think it's interesting that folks paint the newer generation of artists with the same brush...I got a little secret for you: There are great artists from the past whose career did not last for 20 years...But, their music and legacy still has a profound effect....The point is, while beyonce aint no Chaka Khan the girl has some talent...If you can't pick her from a lineup from Ashanti, Cassie, and Sierra, That says more about your generalization for today's music than anything else...[/quote ----- If you can't pick her from a lineup from Ashanti, Cassie, and Sierra. I can pick Beyonce from the line up. The others are her Clones. They all suck ass. Please name the great artist that did not last 20 years ? Because if the did not last I doubt you can name them. | |

going by what the article said, it wasn't about beyonce being nervous about performing with "a living legend." quite the opposite. she didn't think it was important. in other words, she thought it would be bad pr to perform with some old guy who doesn't sell records anymore.
we may want prince to matter in the pop world still but, the plain fact is, he doesn't. not the way he did in the past. he matters now only based on what he's already done. his current self/work is irrelevant in today's pop world. it happens to (almost) everyone. | |

If you go to other boards even Hip Hop fans give P props. To still have 2131 even on the charts with no radio airplay kind of shows that the public is interested in P music. | |

dseann said: ThreadBare said: Prince hadn't even had as much visibility as Sting, before that. My point is about relevance and popularity. Most teens couldn't care less about Prince, even after his resurgence. I think you're both missing the point. Beside looking pretty with a hugh ass Beyonce isn't much of a musical talent. All her songs have the same kindergarden sounding melody's to me....but I'm old school....I could be wrong. I think we all have to acknowledge the fact, whether we like it or not that she happens to be the hottest thing in music(why I don't know), so they had to pair her with the most significant artist of the 80's. His Royal Baddness... The Bitch should have been honoured to polish his high heeled boots much less share the spotlight with his royal highness. ----- "The Bitch should have been honoured to polish his high heeled boots much less share the spotlight with his royal highness" I agree with you 100% if she did not want to perform with him someone else would have.

That mixture of old and new guard, an Ehrlichtrademark, has kept the audience for the CBS broadcast trending younger, even as the show itself has lost viewers overall. Ehrlich credits the revised nomination procedures with part of that, for making the nominees more vital overall, but also with the Grammys' reach and clout among several generations of artists. "We all want to be contemporary," he said. "We all want to feel as current as we are timeless." That's why, two years ago, Prince and Beyoncé stopped the show with their incendiary duet - a performance one of them was very reluctant to agree to. "I had to persuade [Beyoncé] to do that," Ehrlich said. "It wasn't that she didn't like Prince. She just didn't quite understand how important that would be, putting that in a musical and a historical context." i think princey just wanted to -check on it- up close . | |
