Beyonce. Still top album charts around the world making history that these other girls wish for. Stole the show at the BB awards. Video only been out for a month and already picking up nods while Rihanna was paid dust with 5 videos. Beyonce is on every mag. Well check Forbes next. Because this... No wait Beyonce still made more money while sitting on her butt while Rihanna worked or butt off.

The difference of talent, critical acclaim, respect is so huge between them.
Beside Beyoncé is WAY ahead of Rihanna with only 4 albums while Rihanna has already 5 out. I mean 13 ****ing grammies in 4 albums. Rihanna is not even a threat to Beyoncé, that is why I can't be pressed when it comes down to her.

I think about it this way. If some kind of an event had to pick one black female artist in for an event for ratings, critical success etc....Beyonce would be the #1 choice without a doubt. This is her most unsuccessful venture of her whole career and she is STILL getting relatively good critical acclaim, good sales for having no singles etc....only Beyonce could do this. If Rihanna put out 2 flop singles, her album would flounder and she would not be headlining anything. Beyonce is still THAT CHICK, and you will deal.

The respected black female icon of this generation: Beyoncé.
Rihanna can never have the sweeping demographic Beyoncé has.
Basically all audiences of all ages v.s. teens and pop-addicted clubbing females and gays. There is no comparison. Beyoncé has the power to immortalize herself along with other icons such as Shakira. Rihanna doesn't have that power.
Bey has already achieved things, chart-wise, the other girl could only dream of. Not to mention talent, pop culture impact, awards, respect, acclaim, etc. all of which the other girl is highly deficient in.
Beyonce will always been on top because she's managed to stay relevant for a decade now.
Rihanna could never, because she is somewhat of a FAD.
When Bey gets on a stage, it's not only about her image, she can back it up.
Rihanna can sing, but it's not anything special. And don't tell me her hip swaying
and spinning is considered dancing. As mentioned above, she is 2nd tier.
Rihanna is currently more successful. However, Beyonce is the bigger start - the better performer - the more respected act - the one who paved away for Rihanna, etc. Sort of like Britney & Gaga.
I like both but I prefer Rih, however they're fields are different, Rihanna is more pop-oriented hence she does better globally than Beyonce but Beyonce is a big star everywhere, she paved the way for Rih cause she admitted she was highly influenced by Beyonce, it's just Rihanna is more popular worldwide speaking
