And if you want to know what the black community thinks all you have to do is look at BET, which clearly favors Beyoncé.

IDK what some of you are in here talking about because Black men don't "respect" Rihanna. They just think she's hot.

And people don't respect Rihanna for being "real" and "open" about her sexual side. Those are the exact things she gets dragged for. And after the whole Chris Brown incident the entire community as a whole just poked fun at her and she lost whatever respect she had. The same goes for the talk about Drake, Meek Milli, etc.

They think that's a good thing.

Most older women look up to people like Alicia Keys more than Beyonce. Beyonce is seen as highly overrated by the black community. They don't consider Rihanna overrated, because her music has more of a universal appeal rather than just the urban community. And work ethic? We are talking about Rihanna here! She's the busiest woman in the music industry today! Also, nothing about Beyonce is humble. That is just her trying to portray that image again. Listen to Diva and tell me if she's humble. Look at the gifts she had gotten for her baby as if Blue Ivy is more precious than any other woman's bundle of joy! As far as Rihanna being respected, like I said, more people say she is REAL. Whatever she does, it's GENUINE.

Sounds like you're putting your own opinions on the black community.

And people supposedly hate Bey because she bought gifts for her baby? Ch bye. You just lost all credibility.

Just a few minutes ago someone on my FB called Rihanna a smut She's not respected

And on mine, someone just called Beyonce a wh*re for putting out a raunchy song like Dance For You when she now has a daughter. We all know that Beyonce WANTS to be the ROLE MODEL because she thinks that is what will be her legacy, whereas Rihanna wants to be HERSELF and enjoy making music in the process. Another thing, Rihanna is from Barbados, a culture she said is more sexual than American culture.

Why do I feel like the only people who'd vote for Rihanna here are all her white stans whose "black friends" conveniently respect Rih more for being more "real" or w/e.

[coolcristobal]

I voted for Bey, but that was just judging from my black friends who bop to Dance For You, Run The World, and BTINH

These threads are becoming predictable. I already knew who this involved. Smh

But Beyonce. if only they respected her enough to buy her music.

[liberalmusiclover]

LOL. Some people lost respect for Bey when they saw her with Kim K. Even Solange had an opinion about that

You mean the older women who dragged her for f*cking a married man?

[Cap10Planet]

Beyonce is more respected by not only black people, but all walks of life.

There's a reason urban/black fans go crazy every time Rihanna gets nominated for anything related to "rhythm and blues," while someone like Beyonce, who is now recognized as a pop star by many, is still praised with R&B honors.

Black people use Rihanna for her hooks in rap/sung collaborations and a few of her own songs, but that's where it ends. Beyonce is royalty in the black community.

I'm sure more black people purchased 4 as opposed to "the black madonna's" latest album.
