That took me two minutes to write - check the timestamps. Not my fault if I can think/write quickly. 3 paragraphs and 3 lines is not an essay. It's barely even half a page of a novel.
And yeah, the navy constantly claims that Beyonce follows Rihanna and the hive constantly claims Rihanna follows Beyonce - and you know what? We're all right. They both do.
F*** me. It's perfectly fine for all our faves to be influenced by Bruce Springsteen and Michael Jackson and Whitney Houston but God forbid they get influenced by each other/their contemporaries and current artists who are hot right now. Beyonce influences Rihanna. Rihanna influences Beyonce. That's how the industry moves. You pay attention to what other current artists are doing and what the current popular sounds are. That's how you know what's popular and what people like.
Everyone on this site needs to stop being so ****ing territorial over their fave's material.
