Beyonka has never been an acclaimed artist, it is another lie spewed by her fans. She is microwaved producer-based pop same as Rihanna, Britney, Katy etc etc. It is why her attempts at trying to be recognized as a "true artist" destroyed her career, people can tell the Emperor is naked.
She is an acclaimed artist. She always gets rave reviews. Even when the albums are mediocre, she always gets placed in Year end lists.
