How come nobody in the industry respects Rhianna like they do Bey? I mean if shes supposed to be so great, how come her peers never acknowledge her as a serious artist? The whole enitre industry will at least tell you that Bey is a legend and that they respect her, even if they don't particulary care for her music. But I've never heard anyone really speak in admiration of Rhianna or her career except for her fans.

Maybe it's just me, but I've always been impressed by people who have the respect of their peers--their competitors, their rivals.
