Only Alicia Keys was able to survive Bey b/c she has a slightly more older fans and critical acclaim that stuck wit her
+ Wrote her own songs.
I'll never forget watching the Grammy's so long ago, and she won SOTY. The only person who walked on stage was her and I thought she was coolest person ever. Everyone else had like 5-10 people with them on the stage, but she was the only one. So badass.
I loved Keri so much in 08-09 like damn
i know they wanted her to be a Bey/Rih competitor when they released Energy, but then Turnin Me On took off and that was that. Hated that look on her, and she didn't need Wayne to make it. I saw so much potential for her as a major crossover girl, then they ****ed it all up by releasing Slow Dance
BTW, Christina Milian has a top 5 hit in the US, she came out in 2001 with her debut so Britney really buried her along with Mya. Her music sucked, because had she actually had a good album she could have probably competed with Beyonce like she tried to do in 2004.
