We know that already...

I just disagreed with what the DJ said and just expressed that sorry if your butt hurt over the post

I don't stan for her I actually agree when people say she isn't creative etc because it's true. That's really the main thing I don't like about her the praise she gets don't match other than that she's whatever to me and some songs I do like but I don't stan for her. But she seems to be really a cancer to your body that you get so worked up over it. You talk about her alot lmfao for someone that doesn't care Let people think shes better than janet etc we know it isn't true I'm not butthurt over your post at all but as usual you think everyone is against you all the time I actually agree with some of your post.

Well you cant blame me for that because you clearly instigated that

If your gonna dish something out, or be a smart ass then your gonna have to take it

Its not my fault there are a MILLION threads on her on this site that is primarily devoted to Funk/Soul artists. I dont make those threads. But YES I am going to give my 2 dollars and some change from time to time in them ... since I love music and Im very opinionated about it.

Its not my fault their are a bunch of ridiculous comparisions between her and MJ, Prince, and Madonna

Its not my fault, I was minding my business driving in my car and turned on the station and this fool talking shit about Janet.

So yea I just vented about it. I dont make apologies for my post or feel like I owe anybody an explanation for my opinions afterall thats what this board is for.

I dont see you complaining about the million of theads made on her, Rihanna, Bieber, etc threads made on artists people really dont care about here, I dont see you say anything about that but as soon as somebody criticizes them on this PRINCE SITE/FUNK/SOUL artist site... someone is over the top....

yea okay...

People on the radio these days don't know their head from their ass, even on the oldies stations too. One morning, there were two DJs, a male and a female, and they had just finished playing Robert Palmer's "I Didn't Mean To Turn You On". The lady DJ said "He's not the one that originally recorded the song, a female recorded it first but I can't think of her name.". The male DJ said "I think it was Whitney Houston." and the female DJ said "Yeah, that's the one.".

These artists are not paying my bills so why should I care really.

someone on another board yesterday made an interesting comment

She's just not a creative person.

She's a great popstar, but she's not a musician, a creative person. People talk about the lack of personality in what she does, but it's obvious to me why there's none there, it's not about her. It's about putting on a great show and doing a great video, but she's not lost in it. This to her is a business. She's good at what she does, but it's not about being a musician or expressing anything, it's about being good at it.

Madonna is nothing compared to her in terms of singing and dancing and isn't even as beautiful as Beyonce, but Madonna is an artist. She uses her music and performances to express something. She totally changed the game, she was hated by many people because of many of the things she said and did, she never played it safe. But she's now an archetype of modern music. In 50 years time people will still compare all new female musicians to Madonna, I don't even think that can be questioned. It's like Marilyn Monroe or James Dean.

But it's true though, in this mess of Lady Gaga's and Rihanna's and Katy Perry's and Justin Bieber's, who else is there? Someone who is just really good at this job is hard to come by.

Because the people who pour their guts into this business and make it about them always end up paying a price and getting messed up by it. But I would rather watch them sing and dance than the others.

it was in response to this article

This past Sunday, Beyonce put on one of the greatest Super Bowl halftime performances of all time. For 12 exhausting minutes, Queen Bey entertained like I’ve never seen anyone entertain before.

It would be criminal to just state that she sung and danced her ass off; the performance was so much more than that: there were flashy lights, explosions, these insane aerobic dances, giant Beyonce faces and Beyonce duplicates. There was even an appearance from the two Destiny’s Child members that didn't become homeless, Kelly and Michelle.

I enjoyed the show and treated it like a big budget summer movie: a fun, special effects-ridden spectacle that starts to show its flaws the harder you think about it.

Because, while Beyonce's Super Bowl performance might have cemented her legacy as the greatest entertainer we have in music right now — and, quite possibly, of all time — the performance might have also confirmed that she doesn't have the songs to match her mighty status.

She's a musical icon who doesn’t make iconic music.

It's stunning when you think about it. There's not a current artist in music with her skill set: She sings and dances better than everyone else in her field, and it’s not very close.

However, when we talk Beyonce, we have to talk legacy. We’re not comparing her to the Rihannas and Lady Gagas of the pop world. She’s passed that. In a sense she’s Thor — a God amongst mortals.

So we compare her to the icons: the Whitneys, the Princes and the Michaels.

And if you hold Bey by those standards, like we should, she falls short.

During the Super Bowl halftime show you are given 15 minutes, give or take, to cram the cream of the crop of your catalogue into your performance. In 1993, probably the first year when these halftime shows started to get good, Michael Jackson performed "Billie Jean" and "We Are The World." Years later, when Diana Ross hit the stage, she performed "I Will Survive." When it was Prince’s turn, he killed by performing "Purple Rain" — In the actual rain.

Here’s the lineup Bey hit us with on Sunday: “Love on Top,” “Crazy in Love,” “End of Time,” “Baby Boy,” “Bootylicious,” “Independent Women (Part 1)” (which are both Destiny’s Child songs), “Single Ladies” and “Halo.”

All good songs, in some cases great songs when you compare it to what was released that respective year, but when you look in a historical sense, these tracks don’t hold up.

And for that reason, I get somewhat disappointed when I think about Bey's career (disappointed — which is perceived as hate by you Beyford Wives out there who defend Bey like a lioness defends its wounded cub.)

Bey is not the only one I feel somewhat frustrated by. In the acting realm I look at someone like Will Smith, who turns down Django Unchained so he could get Men in Black 15 green-lit.

I'll give you this, Bey heads, I think she's trying harder than Will is. While on B'Day and I Am... Sasha Fierce Bey was slaving away to the radio, 4, her latest album, saw her take risks I’ve never seen before.

Not too many, though.

Because, remember, she’s Beyonce and part of being Beyonce is being perfect, leaving little room for failure, which a lot time leaves little room for risks.

Beyonce is the most beloved artist this side of Michael Jackson. So I’m going to get scorched for this blog.

That’s fine.

For Bey Stans out there, I'll say this: let’s hear em. What are the iconic songs Bey has? The classic, iconic albums? Can we put Dangerously in Love with the Purple Rains and Thrillers of the world?

Honestly, it sounded ridiculous just typing it out.

Just buzzin' in my Beyhive, ladies @Milkman__Dead

Beyonce: An Icon Who's St...nic Music?

The article is very similiar to my thoughts on Beyonce's SB performance:

[Edited 2/7/13 14:54pm]

And I can to

Which is why... I dont know why your so upset that I responded to your remark. I do this ALL the time when anybody who wants to dish something out at any of my posts.

So this is usual for me, nobody is butthurt

And if it appears I talk about her alot here thats because yall make a a billion threads or make alot of posts on her like she is important or posts that I disagree with. so I simply express my opinion or criticism but that doesnt mean I care about her just because I give my opinions on her I dont make a billion threads on her or topics on her.

I didnt attack you, I just responded to your indirect jab at me that you want to know act like wasnt because I called you out... but okay

These artists are not paying my bills either but for me personally I LOVE MUSIC and I feel passionate about it, I love talking about music and learning about the history of it, what can I say? And you can still express your opinion and speak your mind on it and still know the whole world is not going to come to an end ....

Some people are more opinionated than others when it comes to music but that doesnt mean their going to bed at night thinking about why someone got a grammy and someoen didnt.

This board likes for people to just agree with everything, be neutral, hi-five favorites and not for people to be expressive or opinionated because "there are more important issues in the world besides this music site where people come to talk and give their opinions on music "

Of course there are but if you dont really care about music and expressing your opinion on it etc, then why come to a music site?

rhetorical question not directed at you.

Someone needs a time out.

The world's not gonna end because someone said Beyonce is better than Janet. Simmer down now lol

Predictable

Anybody who has an opinion or criticism (you feel is not important) you feel is making big deal on this music forum that is made for people to give their opinions and to express themselves.

Honey the only person that is clearly upset is YOU You didn't like that I said you're her number one fan (when it was in a joking way) and you became upset. I'm actually laughing at this whole thread. I'm never upset on this forum I love music as well and can debate my views but only with sane people. Not looney tunes

So just because I responded to it... that means I am butthurt

So anytime someone responds to someone elses post, that means their REALLY upset and butthurt?

I didnt cuss you out or insult you in my reply and my reply was sarcastic as well, which is why I dont know why you are tripping

Boo you just said that you was not going to read my long ass paragraph (which I did make long and especially for you ) which you did read and your still replying back to me and trying to prove to me that your not upset at me responding to your post.

I think your the one thats upset because your still trying to prove your not

Bravo to you for debating music with sane people, I wish I had better luck

and I don't know the name of the hosts because I dont listen to this particular station alot only when Im driving from time to time BUT this ignorant motherf!cker, said that Beyonce was better than Janet and that Janet could not feel her shoes. He was raving about Beyonces Superbowl performance and his co host tried to defend Janet but the host kept trashing Janet ON THE RADIO

I nearly had a fit in that car.

I am so glad I was already parked because I couldnt believe what that host said.

After getting what I needed, I went back home and tried a MILLION TIMES to call that station but the line was busy.

I know yall are tired of the Beyonce topics I AM TO but that really disturbed me.

I think what makes it even more sad is the man sounded like he was AT LEAST over 40 (but then again who really knows).

THIS ASS KISSING HAS GOTTEN OUT OF CONTROL NOW

Like they really think she is better than these ICONS and LEGENDS that were creative, innovative and had 10x the talent she does

He was really dissing Janet to the point that it was just disrespectful

People really believe that boring ass mess was better than Prince, Mjs and Janet halftime?????

People must be desperate to watch something or the standards must have just gotten REALLLLLLLLY low.... like BOTTOM OF THE PACIFIC OCEAN LOW.

I couldnt get over that host tried to demean Janets talents and accomplishments like she was NOTHING.... and dude even had the audacity to say she could NOT feel BEYONCES SHOES AND then he had the nerve to say Beyonce could danced BUT TRASHED JANET!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

What a f-ing lie

I am so glad I didnt get through because I probably would have ending up cussing him out, thats how piss off I was

People make it seem like TINA TURNER, JAMES BROWN. I DUNNO MICHAEL FUCKIN JACKSON, JACKIE WILSON NEVER EXISTED and make it seem like she doesnt copy Tina Turner, doesnt have mediocre music and mediocre dancing

Its ONE thing to say... yes I think she did a good job... its another to say it was the greatest of all time ... but it is COMPLETELY RIDICULOUS and KRAZY AS HELL TO SAY BEYONCE IS BETTER THAN JANET and Janet cant feel HER shoes..

Beyonce couldnt fill Janets shoes... WITH OR WITHOUT HEELS

Im just tired of the bs and I know everybody is tired of the Beyonce threads AND I AM TO but I just really needed to vent

It seems people do not know how to give praise to one artist without putting down others. I am a Beyonce fan and a Janet Jackson fan. Janet has Influenced Beyonce and many of todays performers a great deal and She has contributed alot to pop/r&B/Dance music. The DJ you mentioned is just delusional and biased. Beyonce is still BUILDING her Legacy While Janet Jacksons Legacy is SET IN STONE. No matter how dismissive That DJ tries to be about other entertainers that came before Beyonce he can not rewrite history. I Love Bey but I am not stupid and neither is he. He was just trying to be controversial.
