She really is the hardest working woman. Dedication, Drive, TALENT and a perfectionist on top of it.

That's why these Rihannas are easily replaceable but there is only ONE Beyonc?....

I don't agree that Rihanna is replaceable. I don't know what it is about her because it sure isn't vocals or performing ability but she has something and there hasn't been a girl since she debuted to come through and match her success.

Well we see what she's actually selling on Billboard so her spot is definitely up for grabs at this point. If they were so confident in her ability to slay they wouldn't have Samsung buy her plaque.

Maybe yall are mistaking being "replaceable" with "success".

Rihanna is replaceable in the sense that ANY OTHER girl can get up on a stage and give what Rihanna gives. ANY girl can go to a studio and sing what someone else sent them as a demo and not write a word, any girl can be lazy and not give 100% every time they get onto a damn stage.

F*ck how many #1s your label helps push you to get, we are talking EASILY replaceable that someone else can do the same damn thing you can. Not to mention, all 5 of Rihanna's last singles haven't performed what she was capable of doing on the charts, SO she may REALLY have been replaced already...

Bey is the hardest working woman in the biz and she's the total package for an entertainer but she's not the best singer. She doesn't have the best music either.

But I'm glad she's gonna be another black legend in music. Show the future gens how we were always supreme.

boy please, Jayz was definitely behind her the whole way, she just didnt fckn hit. He was even on her first single calling her the princess of rocafella. was she not on the same stage as rihanna IN THE PLACE THAT BEYONCE WOULD BE? Teairra just didnt resonate with the people, ya'll have to strop trying to discredit rihanna because YOU dont like her. Her success and accolades kinda speak VOLUMES but ok :dead:
