So when someone clearly more knowledgeable than you points out objective evidence ("information based on facts that can be proved through analysis, measurement, observation, and other such means of research"), that insults your intelligence? If so, honey, college probably isnʻt your thing because youʻre going to be insulted A LOT.
|
Clearly more knowledgeable how? I never listed my educational nor professional credentials. So how did you come to that conclusion that he's more knowledgeable? I mean this is really stupid. He is more knowledgeable because you like his opinion better than my opinion? Dumb.

Nope, that title belongs to the sensational Kelly Clarkson.

To be honest though, I think Beyonce's main advantage is her EAR.. her improv/interpretiv ideas, her knack for building instrumental with creative and thrilling vocal flourishes..ornamentation. She's extremely intuitive from musical perspective..

STOP. IF you were, you would have had an INTELLIGENT rebuttle, instead of a pseudo-academic essay. And while weʻre on the subject of insults, maybe stop calling people stupid because you consult a dictionary on occasion.
Talk about "Dumb"....

No I clearly said He was ignorant. I have no problem with anyone's opinion who feels as if Beyonce is the greatest singer in the world. That's their opinion. They are entitled to it. I just said I don't think so. I said he is ignorant for insulting me over an opinion not his taste in singing abilities . World of difference.

Yep. That's how The Hive works, sis. If you praise Beyoncé, you're incredibly knowledgeable and wise. If you critique her, put someone above her, etc.. you have no idea what you're talking about.

I see. The crazy thing is I actually said Beyonce can sing. I just said she wasn't the best singer of this generation.

That's not good enough for them. Unless you put her on top, you're wrong and know nothing.

Yes no other singer of this generation can sing as good as her. And you have to be successful as well like Mariah and Whitney in the 90s. Mess at folks mentioning Jessie J, nobody even knows who she is and Bey is a better singer.

No, Christina Aguilera is but when it comes to production stage wise and by that I mean the hair, the nails, the wardrobe, the lighting, the PR and team and brand pushing she's the best there is. And that's great... I don't know why her fans are so greedy and needy of constant validation of the myth regarding her voice that they propagate.She does well in other aspects of the art of performing, there's no need to come up with these pressed titles that will never hers. You're only born a powerhouse, you don't catch powerhouse,you don't learn powerhouse , you don't buy powerhouse... It's a distinct quality to your voice tone you're born with and Beyonce was just not born with it. The sooner the hive deals with that fact the better for their hearts and minds.

Donʻt try and jump into this thread and post this kind of nonsense. What you described was every stanbase on ATRL, not specifically the Hive.
The poster I was referring to brought legitimate empirical evidence to the table, while the poster you defended simply dismissed it. And youʻre confused why I sided with the former and not the latter? That makes me biased? If I was presented with an intelligent rebuttal, I would be open to disagreeing on the basis of technique. While Iʻll always have "favorites," I can acknowledge when someone is technically superior.
Others here cannot.

Did you read my response which Swissman quoted? I'm on my cell phone and accidentally deleted. He has it it in quotes, dumbass. That was my rebuttal. Sheesh.

I agree. It's what makes her stand out even above some non-mainstream vocalists imo. She has an ear for melody, she's a musician. It's an experience to hear her sing live and hear her rearrange some of her songs and make them better, on the spot.

What empirical evidence? You can't mean YouTube videos? You have no idea what empirical data is.
