Britney, obviously.
Bey has had zero impact since she debuted.

And don't say Bey isn't DC, Billboard says it, so it doesn't matter if people on ATRL think it they should not be included.

If Bey is DC then all those 50 leven girls should claim them too. That doesn't make sense. No one person in a band gets to claim the receipts. Sorry.

Does Britney know how to create melodies and harmonies? Cuz that's Beyonce's favorite part about music.
Britney's music requires more dictated vocals (someone tells her how to sing a part), kind of like with Rihanna's music. |
Never liked when Bey screamed out loud thus letting her back up singers to do their part

EVERYTIME a Greatest Female/Artist list comes out Beyoncé ALWAYS places higher than Britney, this if Britney places at all. Just recently ABC's Greatest Female Artist of all Time, Britney no where in sight. Some girls have lasting impact outside of MTV (Beyonce), while others don't (Britney). Keep fooling yourself. Brtiney is seen as a joke.

britney was hot for about 5 years ('99-'03/'04). during this time she was an undeniable force. i think her biggest impact is her popularizing the image of the hypersexualized teen pop star. also, songs like toxic influenced the evolution of the dance pop sound. but some of you try to make it like britney invented dance pop. the problem with a lot of pop music is it's very disposable. songs like "oops..." and "...baby" were massive hits, but those songs were not revolutionary. outside of being a hugely popular song for a generation of kids what lasting impact have those songs had?
on the other hand, i feel like beyonce has definitely had more impact. she wouldn't have become billboard's top female artist of the decade otherwise. going on 11 years as a solo artist and still on top of her game with no signs of slowing down. while britney is mainly lauded for her first 5 years in the industry and then largely treated as a pop culture punchline.
beyonce has become the standard by which all other female entertainers of this generation are judged. not to mention, all the other girls reference beyonce as an influence/inspiration. everyone from rihanna to azealia banks to adele. girls from pop to r&b/soul to rap. so in that respect beyonce's impact is both wider and more diverse. i rarely hear any of today's recording artists talking about how inspired they are by britney spears. these new school girls will mention britney's predecessors (ex. madonna & janet) before they mention britney. in 30 years do you really think radio will be playing hit me baby one more time, etc? britney and her "impact" will most likely be forgotten and relinquished to a footnote a la Patti Page (sidenote: Patti is one of the biggest recording artists in history with over 100 million records sold, but oftentimes not even mentioned in discussions about popular music). Songs like "if i were a boy," "irreplaceable," "halo," etc. will most likely be all over adult contemporary radio in the coming decades and Beyonce (because of her work ethic and the amount of time she has been successful) will ascend to the ranks of Michael, Whitney, Mariah, etc.
adding credence to the above:
beyonce was responsible for the first major dance craze of the YouTube era with single ladies. from the chipmunks to glee to the numerous imitations.
rutgers has a college course called "politicizing beyonce" which examines beyonce's image and music in terms of race, gender, and sexuality. she has an entire college course dedicated to her at one of the nation's top universities.
she's popularized rap-singing starting with DC's "No, No, No" and continued the progression with later songs like "upgrade you," "diva," etc.
her distinct style of mixing r&b/hip-hop helped redefine the pop and urban music scenes.
her distinct treatment of melody, rhythm, and melisma have also redefined the music scene.
several of her songs have become standard repertoire in talent shows/competitions.
popularizing certain terms and the memorable song catch phrases: "if you liked it than you should've put a ring on it," "to the left, to the left," "freakum dress," "bootylicious" which has found its way into the dictionary, etc. etc.
beyonce's superbowl performance alone >.
and 11 years into her solo career, which is when most artists start to experience a downturn in popularity, she has completely revolutionized the way music is distributed and is still breaking records.

Say that it was honest not to put Britney in this ABC list and I'll lost hope for the hive forever And don't act as if she places higher all the time, obviously not true. At the end of the day, everyone knows the truth
