Why do women hate Beyonce?
I swear, most of the female friends I knew in school are dissing her any chance they get on Facebook. I don't get it.

It’s simple shes overexposed and overhyped. She’s not as nearly as exceptional as everyone thinks. She puts effort in what she does and I give her credit but the way people talk about her is as if she’s on the level performance wise as Michael Jackson or a singer like Whitney Houston, Mariah Carey. If she’s not even on their level then why tf is she deemed “Queen” it’s a joke. She doesn’t have any ranges in her voice, her dance moves are so choreographed and robotic that it sucks the life out of it. She’s very simple Its like she can do something so simple and basic but she gets praised for it, and it’s annoying af. I don’t hate her at all, and I give her credit for always going all out in her performances but let’s not act like she’s this phenomenal human that is godlike because she can keep an audience entertained for two hours.

@SW-User can you blame her? If I was in her position, I would wanna be overexposed and overhyped as well.

@Billybob2 And hopefully you’ve earned it unlike someone. She’s mundane to me, and it shouldn’t be shocking to know people don’t like her. She doesn’t give me a reason to praise her the way other people do when like I said she’s not an artist to that extreme, I don’t think shes earned it. There are millions of Beyoncé’s but there will only be one Michael Jackson. Really hate comparing those two and I don’t mean to bring him up in a Beyoncé conversation bc they are completely different, but I’m using him as an example of a rare act. Beyoncé isn’t rare.

@Billybob2 She hasn’t earned being praised the way people do. They treat her as if she’s a remarkable act when she’s not. She’s a hard worker sure, who in the industry isn’t? why is the golden light always shining on her? She can dominate on these wack ass artists now sure, and honestly I think that’s why because she’s better than her competition and I’m talking about these bubblegum pop stars and stiff ass rappers like a Cardi B and a Taylor Swift lmaoo ofc Beyoncé will stand out but put her back in the day she would be a joke.

@SW-User I like her work and her, why is that so damn hard to understand?
SW-User
@Billybob2 Look, you asked the question I’m giving you answers. Why is it so hard for YOU to understand that people don’t like her? we dont have to like every artist that gets shot up in the damn industry especially people that aren’t nearly as great as they are hyped up to be.
Billybob2 · 26-30, M
@SW-User but I think she is as great as she's hype up to be, eber thought that her fans see something that you don't?
Billybob2 · 26-30, M
@DudeistPriest Okay, so?
SW-User
@Billybob2 I honestly don’t even think you guys see anything great, I think you guys are just feeding into the industry and what they slapped and molded together over the decades that she been in the industry. Now y’all are used to her and fan over her simply over her name alone. They created something so huge that now you all believe something that isn’t really there and it’s sad.

@SW-User that couldn't be farther from the truth, I actually loved Florida Gergoia Line and Nickelback before they got all the hype. I've been told more than once that my taste in music is shit.

@Billybob2 Selling out is a negative character trait.
Billybob2 · 26-30, M
@DudeistPriest Nobody tells me what to buy, you can tell me my taste in music is shit but I genuinely like her music.
Billybob2 · 26-30, M
@DudeistPriest I'd have no shame in selling out.
SW-User
@Billybob2 I’m not going to tell you your music is trash, but it doesn’t hurt to know why people may think that way lmao. You do you though.
Billybob2 · 26-30, M
@SW-User I mean you have to admit, there has to be at least a few people in the world that genuinely enjoys what she makes. My grandma does too.
Billybob2 · 26-30, M
@SW-User that's usually what happens when artists get popular, companies put them on a pedestal whether or not they actually understand the target audience.

How is it true? Because people like what is familiar and comfortable and using the technique called the Millennial Whoop gives them that. Look it up. Think about that the next time you listen to music so you won't feel like you've been played.
"Nobody tells me what to buy"
Au contraire, you're told exactly what to buy. Max Martin and Dr Luke (Lukasz Gottwald) probably wrote what you've been hearing and buying for the past two decades. It's a formula they've used to corner the market with thousands of songs they wrote in the Top 100 Charts regarding what you like. Just these two guys and this is why (at 7:00min)...[media=https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=oVME_l4IwII]

@Billybob2 Not necessarily they have to make sure they’ll sell, clearly she has. She’s placed higher above everyone and it’s dumb, but that’s the industry for ya that I don’t give af about and I’m not supporting her but others do whatever. I’m not losing any sleep so idc. Lmao. U pop on man 🤘
Billybob2 · 26-30, M
@DudeistPriest I don't know how many times I can tell you but I genuinely enjoy her music. If I was the way you say I am, I would be a huge fan of Justin Bieber and One Direction, which I'm not.
