Setter!!

When does Beyonce EVER follow anything? She always does her own thing, and has been trendsetting since DC with her rap singing to BEYONCE with the release strategy and the fact that the global release schedule has changed to Friday because of her.

Trendsetter

[Shinning]

Trendsetter. She's the standard.

-Rhythmic vocal delivery (rap singing) false

Absolutely true. That style of singing didn't become a trend until Destiny's Child had success with it and that's a fact.

-Surprise releases - wasn't the first person

What other mainstream act released an album with zero warning or promotions? And please don't say Bruce Springsteen or Radiohead because they didn't. Are you saying that the slew of surprise released albums that occurred after BEYONCE were just a coincidence?

-All the blatant Irreplaceable knock offs - many songs were big and had similar patterns of irreplaceable

Like?!

-Dual singe releases - false

I could be wrong about this, but I don't recall dual single releases really being a thing before the IASF era. Please enlighten if someone did this before her.

-Bootylicious arguably started the 'licious' trend. - Destiny child not Bey

What is the difference? Beyonce was the one that wrote the damn song

Beyoncé is a trendsetter.

Setter for the most part. However, although great, much of the content on ST was following.

Following who?

[Optimus]

Beyonce- Trend Setter

Now: Taylor Swift

Did she start a trend? Or she is just following what is popular? Did she bring anything to Pop culture?

[AMENHOOKER]

Trend follower, for sure.
She tries so hard to be hip and fresh, even her social media interactions prove this.

[GreatCoolBright]

Follower haha

[Nemo]

These days, I would have to consider her a trend follower.

[Nialler]

[Homogenic]

The epitome of being trend hopper

[halcyonday]

[Luigi]

trendsetter!

[Gary]

Taylor is a trend follower imo

[Marvin]

Katy: follower
Rihanna: follower
Gaga: setter
Beyonce: both
Taylor: follower

Gaga is the only the trendsetter of all of these tbh, but Beyonce does have her moments. With 4 she did whatever she wanted to do but 7/11 is her obviously following the trap music trend.
