Stop it! To know music, artistry, and the science behind making a hit is to knownthey all work together but live serpartely. And knowing that explains the answer you’re overlooking. Cardi B just made history with a hit sing that clearly lacks the depth and critical social awareness you speak of. I’m not saying that to say she doesn’t deserve it her accolades, instead, I’m trying to convey that what’s needed to create a hit record doesn’t require what’s looked for in critically acclaimed music. Beyonce has intentionally and purposely moved away from focusing on producing hits. She is now focused on creating complete and artistically driven bodies of work. She states this in her music all the time. This is why she’s so awarded. Not only is her music current and pushes the culture forward, her albums are well developed, packing congruency, themes while tackling social issues, incorporating pop culture and social trends all while creating new trends... and her album roll outs always end up influencing the business behind music. To ignore and not award this women is the be insane! Non of her peers speak about her not having talent like you average folks. Lol I’m so confused. Prince loved Beyonce as an artistic lol pipe down...Beyonce clearly didn’t win album of the year bc she literally took off her unbiased masked and finally revealed that she is for the well-being of blacks and will stand up against racism. The committee wouldn’t dare risk the respect of their white supporters by letting that Panther wanna be win album of the year. Beyonce knew she risked it the moment she did that Super Bowl. She cried bc she also knew this was her most heart felt work. Lemonade was heaven. In true Beyonce fashion, she worked hard to master r&b while successfully pulling in elements she’s not known for... like rock, folk, and country.. then did it like she’s a leader and all those genres. I don’t mind calling her out when she’s not on point but Lemonade was, hands down, one of the best albums EVER! Sasha Fierece was good music but the actual track order on the album was poorly arranged. That was Beyonce trying her hand at a concept album for the first time. If you ever wanted to criticize her trying it.. that’s the time. But my girl is such a professional and hard worker she wa able to even sale and present that like a million dollars. The self titled album was Beyonce’s best mainstream packaged album and Lemonade was her best artistic album. I’m not sure she’ll ever top it. It legit had everything any artist could want to put into music. It had art. Poetry. Life. Politics. Entertainment. Mixture. Balance. It was futuristic while flirting with the past. She didn’t win because she showed the world she wasn’t sleep and she’s was actually a just a LIGHT SKIN black women. The blonde wig had Sarah thinking Beyonce was really like her.

DONE!
