It's called being pretentious and try hard, something she master during her "I Am...Sasha Fierce" era but now it's old and paired with laziness and lackluster appeal. Aretha Franklin "grew up", had a child and still had good music, along with her more grown cuts, during the 80's. Beyonce just try to hard to be different and legendary with the most boring approach.
