In terms of pop culture? Britney, so far. But her career is fading, and Beyonce is still going strong.
In terms of actual musical impact? Beyonce. She did a lot for the r&b genre.

- Rihanna
- Alexandra Burke
- Lady Gaga
- Rita Ora
- Little Mix
- Kanye West
She is on the same level as MJ, Tina Turner, Whitney. Lets not forget how she is a political powerhouse. Best friends with the most powerful man in the world. Being the role model to Obama's kids.
Also her being black and R&B will and has had a SIGNIFICANT impact on her career. How can anyone in their right mind expect a R&B female to succeed in a country like Poland. Which is like 99.99% white and full of neo-nazis. Yet she does succeed there. Her genre of music has held her back. To get an idea of how truly successful she is compare her to Ashanti or Brandy.
Beyonce is a music legend and her impact can clearly been seen in her 16 GRAMMYS opposed to Britney's ...erm 1? All music legends and artists have praised her. She is looked up to. Trash your public image all you want and headlines every single tabloid you want, there is still something called an artist and musician.
