Rihanna sounds the same on every album but Beyonce doesn't. Ok girl. This doesn't make you a better stan it makes you sound delusional but I'll let you have it. This thread has gotten messy enough with people denying facts and trying to make Beyonce seem like something she's not and doesn't even try to be. I'm over it

No, Beyoncé really doesn't.

This thread doesn't feel messy. Most people agree that Rihanna is diverse and if you would look at a single album by her, you'd find more diversity than on a Beyoncé record, but she keeps rotating her genres, so it's not like she's doing industrial-rock now. Everything she's done, Bey's done.

She has elements of Rock but never had a proper rock song, she has some electro elements but not Electro or house song.

In other words she takes risks by bringing new influences on the table, but not BIG ones by changing her whole genre.

That made absolute perfect sense, you have enlightened me (no shade at all)

Christina has tackled

Pop, Rock, Jazz, Country, R&B, Latin, Electronic, Pop Rock, Dance, etc...
She's BY FARRRRR the most versatile and diverse artist of our generation

Her song smashed but she's offended thousands of people who normally wouldnt care for her and turned them against her,
Sampling and doing songs of different genres is one thing but completely appropriating someone's culture is entirely different

Rihanna is a studio puppet. She'll take whatever song they give her regardless of style or genre.

So yeah, i guess that makes her diverse even though many different artists record in various genres.

Yes. Russian Roulette Man Down, Rockstar 101 were all risks.

[ryanpittman97]

Beyoncé isn't really all that diverse either, she makes R&B and Pop songs, never has she tried her hand in Rock and Country.

Y'all keep saying that, but where's your evidence? Have you been in the studio with her? Do you know her recording process? No you don't

Stop making bull**** claims if you don't have the receipts or evidence to back it up

ok.

Cause all our faves are studio puppet. That's why she rejected most songs because she'll take whatever they give her. Not the puppet rejecting songs.

Rihanna has no niche and very little originality. She's simply here to give us hits.

I'm not even touching your OP, but please know that Natalie Maines is the lead singer of the Dixie Chicks. Jennifer Nettles is from Sugarland. #thatdamnNAVI #highereducation

Rihanna has no musical no roots tbh, maybe because she had no creative control in her early years. Destiny's Child always had creative control even while recording their first album. That's when Beyoncé came up with her signature sound. So for Bey, R&B is where she'll always feel comfortable. I think Rihanna is more at ease singing reggae-pop songs.

I don't want to get into Rihanna's vocals, because I don't think they're good at all (though there's improvement), but Beyoncé's vocals at 25 were impeccable, so it's not just experience, but training.

I didn't come at Beyonce's vocal there's nothing wrong when I say that she got her voice now because of experience (or you are saying that training isn't experience?)

Rihanna has musical roots, she was first marketed as rnb/dancehall/carribean and since then she branched out
She doesn't ave the luxury of being in a girl group. So expereince wasn't really there for her. Now she's 8 years in and she's not only known as an rnb artist, but also a pop artist.
