what's more a metacritic wasn't even in existence when a lot of legends existed or otherwise there aren't metacritic scores of many legends.
And the VMA performance even though brilliant, isn't proof of legendary status.

It's not just the one metacritic score. You're acting like each piece of evidence is the only one presented.
It's the fact that she has it ALL. Huge single success, huge album success, success with another group, unbelievably acclaimed albums, ridiculous tour grosses, a reputation as a great performer, standard-setting vocal technique, a global presence in pop culture, etc. etc.
Sure you can break down each individual bit and say "OH! so and so is slightly better!" but no one else has it all. You sound like you're just trying to be as narrow focused as possible instead of looking at the big picture.
