Who is a better singer?

You have to ask that question, Karen was the ultimate, a perfect singer with unpeccable annunciation, depth, range and class. The other person you speak of has an average voice at best, a product of commercialization, she often struts around like a slut and caters to a lost generation of thumbed down illiterate drones who wouldn't know a good singer if they heard one.

Karen Carpenter was about substance/virtue and also happened to have had a great voice. Beyoncé Knowles is a media fabrication who was created by a disgusting media/pop culture in order to destroy minds and mock virtue. An average talent given the false monicker of greatness by people who have no moral clarity or knowledge of music.
