And Britney goes 10x platinum and has sold out tours. Your point?

VoicesCarry said:

Talentless pop stars like Britney, Christine Aguiluera and the like will always sellout with garbage because that's just the industry, pop package marketing.

However when Crazy in Love hit, alot of people were surprised and could not help but like the song. People thought Beyonce was through, especially after the Destiny's Child mess. The success of the album was a message that people really believed in her talent as a SINGER and an overall performer. I believe the 6x platinum was well earned and in my opinion was not trash.

Okay, good of you to say IN YOUR OPINION, instead of using sales as some type of barometer of quality. I am totally unaware that people thought Beyonce was OVER after DC3 "finished" - everyone always thought she was being groomed for solo stardom from the very beginning. That was the whole point of DC3, which was always about Beyonce and never about sustaining the group.

Christina Aguilera is untalented Alrighty, then. She and Beyonce have great voices, just need to find material that matches them and cut that fucking melisma.

Excuse me but as a Prince fan first I have learned enough about music to know about quality over quantity and just because YOU are not aware of what the buzz was among several groups about Destiny's Child does not mean it did not occur. Beyonce did her thing on her first solo album and I look forward to see how much she has matured, or not, on her sophomore album before I pass any judgements.

wonder505 said:

Of course I was aware of the buzz on DC3 and Beyonce. Guess I just interpreted it differently than you. DC3 was always supposed to be a vehicle for Beyonce's eventual solo career. That's how Matthew orchestrated it.

And good for you about the album, I hope you enjoy it.

Christina's a much better singer than Beyoncé

I enjoyed Stripped.

Haven't heard the whole album but i really enjoyed The Voice Within and Beautiful

Btw i really don't understand why so many compare her to Britney
Christina is a good singer imo , Britney is ..not

There's no doubt that Christina has one of the best voices in modern pop.

wonder505 said:

Thats VoicesCarry's job. Didn't u know?

Do you think Debbie would rock out with me to My Humps

Dewrede said:

That's Christina's own fault due to her wanting to destroy her "teeny" image and becoming a full blown ho like her competition.

Not saying Britney is a nun but i've seen more trashy image from Christina.

jayaredee said:

Actually people compare Britney to Christina because they came out at nearly the same time. Christina was promo'd as the "talented" Britney for a while in 1999. So she was thought of as a Britney clone, along with Mandy Moore (who definitely does not have a trashy image and is also a better singer) and others.

WELL ANYWAYS BACK TO BEYONCE AND HER ALBUM.

When Destiny's Child was busting out I was jamming Aaliyah. "One in a Million" was the deal, and I had enough of the Salt N Peppa's, Envouge's, and so on.

I find it pretty interesting that after we all lose Aaliyah, Beyonce leave's Destiny's Child and tries to go out on her own. She will NEVER be even close to what Aaliyah was. Beyonce works at being sexy, Aaliyah just was. And we all know who can sing better. . .Aaliyah.

As you can probobly figure out I will not be buying this album like I didn't purchase any of Destiny's Child album's.

Actually Christina and Janet have our running on this fall's female line up so far. But there is still time before fall to see what's up.

Oh hell no!!! Aaliyah wasn't sh*t compared to Beyonce. Don't even embarass yourself.

May she rest in peace, but she was nothing.....until she died.

Then all of a sudden she bacame this "goddess" and people decided they were her fans. They jumped on the Aaliyah bandwagon or so to speak.

Back to Beyonce. This album is going to be hot, I can feel it.

Oh feel it.

I find the timeline of events kind of interesting that is all.


Everytime I do check out Beyonce she looks like she really has to work at what seems to come naturally to a few others. Not to mention how snotty and full of herself she looks most of the time.

Beyonce's career has everything to do with who she hangs with not her great singing or lyrics in my oppinion.

True dat true dat true dat.
That album sucked a fat cock. As do all of Gemini's Twin's LPs. Their last album had a song called "T Shirt" LAME

I wish Beyonce would go the crazy deep psycho meltdown route of Mariah already. I think Dreamgirls might be the next Glitter.

badujunkie said:

Beweave needs a vanity project where she's the only star and gets above-title billing for that to happen. She's only part of the ensemble in Dreamgirls.

badujunkie said:

Oh You wish! Over at the NPG club is a recent picture of Beyonce at the Cannes film festival where folks were able to preview a snippet of the movie. Not only is Beyonce beautiful and flawless, but the response from the crowd was overwhelmly positive at the preview.

It's one thing to form an opinion on a CD that was released, but to wish her movie be another Glitter is just straight up hating! What if the movie is really good, whatcha gonna say then?

allstatenorthside said:

You should be ashamed of yourself of posting something so wack! Aaliyah a better singer than Beyonce? Why don't you watch live clippings of Aaliyah. She has such a weak voice you can't even hear her half the time.

Old & Busted: Madonna vs. Mariah
The New Hotness: Aaliyah vs. Beyonce

Whodathunkit?

That is pretty smart of Beyonce. When it flops she can blame someone else.

Beyonce sucks ass, and Aaliyah is just class.

so we got B. Day and Twenty Years Old in September..

the over-singing needs to end and just sing.

Remember how Whitney would just sing a song.....and you'd go...damn that chile can sanggggg.....

Rhondab said:

EXACTLY, it's like she doesn't feel like she's really sangin' unless she treats the melody like a fucking roller coaster ride
