Impacting people to buy and stream your albums and singles is the most genuine, impressive and important form of "impact" that an artist could wish to accomplish.
Well Beyonce made 256 million on The Formation Tour with 49 shows, while Taylor made 254 million with 85 shows, so she stays winning
Cringe. The 'impressive sales' means people care about her music, what more could you ask as a musician
You're cringing at intelligence?
Everyone can make music. It's what you do with the music that makes a difference.
What does Taylor Swift do? Write poems about her failed relationships, fake relationships, fake friendships and brand herself for the sole purpose of generating money and building a persona both online and in the papers.
That's what you stan for and nobody respects that. It does nothing. No one's talking about it. It's just noise.
People voting Taylor Literally every girl(except white americans) dreamed to be Beyonce as a child. Bey is HUGE in South America,Africa and southern Asia.(where music markets are tragic) So don't come with the the "but Taylor sold more in Japan,!11!!1"

He isn't arguing against that. Yes Taylor was far more successful with sales WW in this past era, no one will deny that. But global doesn't mean to sell more WW, contrary to what ATRL thinks. It actually means to be more geographically spread out.
Selling 1 copy in every country is actually more global than selling say 10 million in the US, Australia, and Canada and 0 in all other countries.
I'm not arguing Bey vs Tay here. I'm just letting you all now what the world actually means.

The Hive and their math logic in this thread is killing me.

1989 was certified 3x Platinum in India and it's almost 2 years ago
Kim Kardashian
Paris Hilton
Lindsay Lohan
Kylie Jenner
and.. Taylor Swift
What do these women have in common?
Widely popular based on looks
Clothing, perfume, etc. Anything that sells
Tabloid personalities, relationships are everyone's news
None of them can sing very well
I mean come on girls. Britney used to be another but at least she can dance.
What does Taylor do except write? Please help me. I'm offended that BEYONCÉ is in the same sentence.

oh my. I love Beyonce but what is this pretentious bull. Beyonce also writes about failed relationship (that's literally the theme of Lemonade), superficial things and Beyonce also has persona she pushes (Sasha Fierce) and she also uses her brand to generate money
Taylor is an artist who writes her songs, of course she's extract inspirations from her own experiences and emotions, that's what artists do. Why are you acting like that's a bad thing

sales is what matters"
