At least Demi has more balls to stand by her flops than Rihanna, so I would say so yes. At the end of the day, we can't say Demi is a coward.

I'm certain she'll be performing her flops along with her hits on her tour. Can't say the same about Rihanna.
And also, you can't even compare the two because Demi never released a political song that could've sparked much debate, nor did she leave it to die when it flopped.

Thank you! Even Bow Down, something Rihanna ain't bold enough to do. Beyoncé is studied in top universities all across the country & internationally. & Rihanna is not.

Standing by your song even when radio rejected it? Now that sounds like a risk. Go Bey.

I love both, but Beyoncé recently has taken more "risk" lately. Talking about social issues, not releasing radio singles, etc.

Rihanna seems to release commercial songs that are lowkey slaying the underground circuit, but will blow up like 6 months after her release.

Rihanna is way more diverse

In the real world Beyoncé is praised for it. Rihanna is not

"Pulling A Beyoncé" a term created for her being an innovator. Studied in universities. Music impacting cutlure. Now, where is Rihanna's?

russian roulette

Its a lot riskier than abandoning your flops for a generic dance song featuring Drake.

A "world chart" that no one uses besides you gays on ATRL. Made by 2 queens in their Mothers basement. Slay that basement stat. Rihanna has zero events

Rihanna's songs are more known and more popular worldwide and she has more and bigger hits When you have those, who cares about "events?" That was the point

Right? And if they're going to use that argument, Rihanna has more hits than every pop star...doesn't mean she's bigger than Taylor Swift or Beyonce.

No one cares about quick lil singles, and even Rih herself realized.

Actually, right now, I think Rihanna. BEYONCE has a wider appeal than ANTi does.

Y'all should bump this thread when Bey releases her politically charged album.

the Spice Girls songs are more known and more popular than Jimi Hendrix. but who is the innovator?

nnnnn not the Beyhive clinging onto this thread like their lives depends on it and still losing. They're too insecure. And I love B herself but the hive is just a damned mess

Beyonce is the bigger risk-taker by alot, but she also is more safe in a way

Idk, but I can confidently say they're both big risk takers compared to their peers.

ANTi was certainly a risky album, but if we're looking at the scope of both their discographies it's Bey

Girl sit your black ass down, Bye aint ****
