There are others who have plenty of awards too, like Eminem or bands like Coldplay. Anyone can list a list of accomplishments like that and make their fave sound impressive. Besides, Beyonce is not close to being the best-selling, most acclaimed or most awarded artist of this generation. I mean, some of those things  "performs at the Grammys", so have zillions of others. "Gives birth to her daughter Blue Ivy"  This is what people drag the Hive for.
I'm going to say no because at the end of the day what makes an artist accomplished is the quality of their art and the work they put into it to create it. Beyonce is just not at the level where you could say she is the most accomplished artist. Someone like Kanye West, Arcade Fire or Daft Punk are much more appropriate for that title.

This whole post
And, at the end of the day, Beyoncé's only outstanding album so far is Self-titled, so she has yet a lot to prove musically.

So you clearly know almost nothing about Eminem, outside his sales.

They all probably respect Beyonce too. I posted the receipts. When people in the industry (producers, writers, record execs, artists alike) gave their opinions on who the Greatest artists of all time were Beyonce was the highest listed of her gen. at 52, Eminem came in at 79.

This decade alone, Taylor Swift, Lady Gaga, Katy Perry, Rihanna have all sold way more records and had more number ones than her 
She's all smoke and no flame tbh.

It's not about chart success but it's about her marrying Jay Z? 
Since when is giving birth such a big career achievement 
Anyway she's not the greatest female artist let alone the biggest artist of all time

Yes, she's one of the most accomplished. And to the girls in here arguing about the newer generation. Go start a thread and list their stats of 10+ yrs of slayage and domination.

Beyonce has it all. And that's a FACT. There hasn't been an area where she's not successful in.

I mean this woman has a Legends of Rock exhibit at the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame before her time, the first ever. She has a soda can with her face on it.
