Why: Rihanna and Beyonce both showed their most urban images and songs in their latest albums, the albums are filled with urban songs, touching ballads, sassy attitude and a rebellious attitude. These albums are also considered the best of each artist ( with the exception of Rated R ).
X-Tina's first album (1999) POP
Mixed reviews
Beyoncé's first album (1998) R&B and Hip Hop
Positive reviews
Bey had a sexy and sassy image from the start and please don't ever talk about "urban" music ever again.
So your implying only black woman can make urban music?
Your implying that stripped isnt one of the most influential albums of all time?
Your implying that I dont know what im talking about when i stan for Britney Spear?
Your implying that black women HAVE to make urban music and they cant be inspired by white women?

She also inspired Adele's 21 because the album cover features a picture of her face, and coincidentally, Christina also has a face.
Gaga was doing the technology/electronic themes before Bionic tho
Her Haus has always been inventing and making things like the disco stick, video screen glasses, etc.
Putting a disc drive thingy on Gaga's face does not mean bionic. The bionic nature X used comes from the intertwined formality of person, and machine since they're 1. Basically a robot. Artpop = Bionic in theme.
