I think many people forget how much or why they loved beyonce because its easy to call someone overrated when they decide to stay in the industry for sooooooo long AND not keep true to the OG sound that made them famous (in this case rnb) but fact remains, whilst people call this women overrated or complain about the massive fanbase of hers, the new generation keeps looking for her replacements lmao despite disliking her lol. Beyonce proves over and over again why she is such a great performer. She is only of the lasts mainstream artists left that would still be famous if we still lived in radio times because she brings TALENT and not looks alone
There isnt anything to compare other than influence. In the younger generation Taylor Swift is definitely more influential, that being said talentwise the two can NEVER be compared. Taylor Swists rise to stardom in the mainstread media is mostly because of the new representation she brought. Back then the mainstream scene consisted of mostly racially ambigious black women and a few white brunettes lmao. Yound, Blonde, Blue eyed AND Country? Yup people were going to vibe with it.
So everyone else in the industry is ugly and mean? Be for real. Some Black Americans disliked her because of the whole colored ish. Nobody cares that she is pretty, confident and nice. Its a shame she fell for the whole thing and is now lying about being a black woman but hey thats the american music business. The people obsessing over the whole Tems, Tyla and Ayra ish are mostly africans and mostly due to the tension between south africans and west africans.
I love how Tems, Ayra, and Tyla are showing that there's no need for rivalry….. In this age where fans are used to pitting super talented artistes against themselves, it’s so refreshing to see these queens always giving positive vibes and celebrating themselves
Blk people need to stop the unnecessary comparisons, debates, and negativity. They’re all wonderful - Beyonce, Janet, Tyla, etc. Please leave your own people TF alone.
The body shaming is crazy to me .Some people wish they had Tyla’s flat stomach .The image and body shaming is crazy .She is petite and that’s just her body .Like leave the girl alone bruh.The same people talking are the same ones wishing .
She is skinny with a nice body like coleray. I don't see what people see, I've been around for a long time, I've seen beautiful women come and go in this industry. One thing i know,when you come in wearing no clothes, you stay with no clothes. If you demand you wear clothes you are no longer needed in this industry. Tyler can sing and dance, its a shame.
11 subpar ⚪️ girls can be popular all at once but let a few super talented, dedicated and outstanding black pop girls in and there can only be one?! God get me off of this planet
That has always been the agenda in America. Divide and conquer so that the Culture implodes from the inside out, with everyone pitted against each other instead of standing together to form a mighty fist. That has always been the biggest fear of the citizens in a racist society who know they have much to atone for and are terrified of the Karma that IS coming. The hope is that the Culture will be destroyed before that happens but God has other plans for his Chosen Ones. Fight the programming. Fight the powers that be.
It’s giving Tyra Banks vs Naomi Campbell. Ppl in the 90’s acted like there couldn’t be more than one amazing Black supermodel and they’re doing the same thing in this case as well
Many are envious of her beauty and talent plus they hate to see an unapologetically confident woman from an African country being proud of her culture and not relegating or diminishing it for Western culture.
I know! It’s so weird lol 😆 like the things people are mad at her about don’t even make sense. And she’s so sweet and talented and I love and adore her ❤
I don’t care how beautiful people perceive Tyla to be. Africans have proven disrespectful to black Americans. Her fanbase will remain mostly African and that’s fine. Let her people make her famous…her popularity with black Americans will be short lived because we do not relate to Africans.
As a South African living abroad I’m just happy to walk into a club/event and hear African artist. There was a time when that wasn’t a thing and only a select few had that worldwide outreach, now it’s not just a handful and it makes us feel at home when we are very far from home.
@@ilovelife3328 Sorry but unless americans learn what true Amapiano is,Uncle Waffles will never be mainstream in america. Uncle Waffles could have been the face of Amapiano, she was already bigger in South africa than Tyla, but she isnt because she does ACTUAL Amapiano. Amapiano isnt the music Tyla does despite it being marketed that way. Amapiano is closer to housemusic than ANY other american genre and well house music is already not that popular in America, its more of a mainstream genre in European countries.
@dehititih7571 Yes, I agree. I grew up listening to Baltimore House music (a regional favorite in Maryland/DC) so I think that’s why I took to Amapiano so easily when I first discovered it but a lot of Americans aren’t familiar with that particular musical sound so it may sound too “foreign” their ears. I haven’t been too successful with getting people I know to embrace the genre to be honest along with other regional music I enjoy such as GoGo music (DC) or NOLA Bounce music. I find Amapiano to be so energetic and uplifting to the spirit though. It’s become of of my favorite genres to listen to daily! Chris Brown’s collabs with Nigerian musicians had a HUGE hand in popularizing Afrobeats in America and I think it would take for some AA artists to collaborate with the likes of artists like Uncle Waffles to properly “break/introduce” this sound to American ears.
Props to YOU Empressive for giving Ciara a shout out as 1 of the best performers because she truly is and has BEEN since she came out. She doesn't get the same stages as Beyonce maybe due to the politics of the industry and the team behind her, but I respect you for always being unbiased and REAL!
While I agree Ciara’s a great dancer, she doesn’t have the charisma and grace. Performances aren’t about just being a great technical dance. It’s about the soul within the dance, the storytelling, the vulnerability, femininity etc. Beyonce brings all of that to the table and more (MJ did as well). Ciara also seems to only excel in Hip-Hop street dance. She doesn’t seem yo have range. While Beyoncé has given us from Hip-Hop street dance, to Contemporary dance, to Arabian belly dance styles, to various African dance styles. Beyonce created signature walks, signature stances, signature hair flips, signature facial expressions, signature entrances. Ciara doesn’t seem to have any signature or be known for any or as many as Beyonce. Also, but most especially, Beyonce is a vocalist-entertainer who can also sing incredibly well live while dancing, which seems to fascinate people a lot. Ciara is an average singer who can’t hold a tune live talk-less of when dancing. So she’s not in the same ballpark as Beyonce. These are the reasons I think Ciara doesn’t compare. She’s a great dancer and the female equivalent of Chris Brown (in my opinion) but she simply doesn’t have the full package to be classed a great entertainer or be compared to MJ the way many people compare Beyonce.
@ I’m not doing a stan comparison of artist with you! I stated how i feel & agreed with Empressive, do your homework on the Legend that is Ciara. She does not have the same vocal ability, facts. Janet doesn’t either. Ciara had for years poured her heart into her performances there’s a lot you can research. & Beyoncé is mainly a “hip hop style dancer” anybody can see that. I said what i said you don’t have to see it for Ciara and “nit pit” what influence/signatures she had and don’t have cause it’s there and been. The people that see it, do & will continue to! And KNOW she deserves more than she receives and deserves to be put on major platforms just like other artist!
@@squarcircle2254you are out of touch with Ciara. Her first video goodies included a signature move. To me she's a better performer but she doesn't have all the theatrics or the budget. Beyonce has a very big budget to go over the top. But I feel usher Ciara Janet usher and Chris brown are better performers as they come up with their own moves.
@@XxiliketwinkiesxXidw why her pathetic fans always talking about "hate" when smbd disagree with you Not everybody has to love her witchcraft, without Sasha she would be nothing ya know?
I love how you took so much time to shout out all of the great performers that are out there! A lot of the new artists out haven't really gotten their stage performances together and some of them seem to not care to but the industry still has more than a few top-tier performers doing their thing!
Ciara as a performer should be revered more. Her stage prowess is dynamic to say the least. She can arouse a crowd not only by breaking out into an intricate, footwork-heavy 8-count but she can also stand firm and still on stage, crooning out her ballads, and command the same level of attention. Love that you recognize her greatness in performance.
Nah. Ciara is a great dancer. But she’s just like JLo. And frankly Jlo might be better. She’s so pretty and always looks good. But there’s a reason that, for all her comparisons to Janet, Ciara is never in the discussion for “best performer alive.” She’s almost boring.
I love the fact that Tyla clapped back these people need to leave that girl alone plus they trying so hard to pit Ayra against Tyla but it will never work. NEVER I also believe they Ayra is very much a Rihana fan she must’ve been watching all her moves and stuff.
You have to watch it once for the emotional experience and then again to breakdown all the moving parts 🙌🏾 And then a third time to keep your eye on what Blue Blue is doing
Because people have different perceptions of what is attractive to them. African, Caribbean and even Blk American men are generally not into skinny women. He shouldn't have body shamed her but let's not be culturally dense. It's no coincidence that Tyla is heavily admixed and has that shape. Most Blk women don't phenotypically look like her nor have her body proportions. She looks good on her, but her shape isn't the cultural standard amongst Africans and others mentioned.
Exactly her body is perfect imo, and that’s just it an opinion we all have one. lmao if it isn’t exactly what you are attracted too then move on and keep it pushin!! No need for the critics, the comments or the negativity. People just love to hate. SAD
@@user-dv3kq3rm4h I've seen a lot of black women with tyla shape. It's just that they promote a thicker shape in certain black culture groups and are put down if you are too skinny.
@@user-dv3kq3rm4h In one of her songs, she said that people prefer girls from joburg, but the timeline confirmed they prefered the curvy girl from Lagos 😂😂
People don't realise that the more hate and backlash Tyla keeps getting the bigger the star she is going to become. And I'm not even a behive but I really enjoyed Beyonce's halftime performance the trolls are just going to bring more eyes to her performance. So keep on hating haters
Ayra is Nigerian, and Tyla is South African. Although they are both African, the 2 countries have different culture and sound. People are so DUMB because if you are musically tuned.. you will know they are completely different. And you know all these negative comments are our own black people. Nigerians (African) have so many dance moves that even chris Brown performed, at his shows. So what's the bloody difference. I am black, but my race, get on my nerves. The negativity is CRAZY KMBT 😡 It's not a TYLA MOVE.! It's a Caribbean and African culture move. And they don't know that it was here, well before any of us was even born.Their only seeing it now.. 🙄
It's not a Caribbean move, don't bring us into this. Yes we whine and do similar movements but not this specific combination of moves that make up that dance.
@@MissN77South Africans invented it, Tyla is a South African and we South Africans are happy that she got to share the dance on an international level... You will deal, cause I am stating facts and not an opinion.
She shared her opinion, which is that Chloe, along with other artists she listed, is a good performer in her own right. How does she "not belong in this group project"?@@blackculturematters1404
I guarantee everybody that's complaining,can't sing nor dance as good as her or at all😅.And we already know that they don't have looks that could compare 😅
We MAy not be Able to sing or Dance BUT we know what we like to Hear because our EARS have been fine tune by great artist prior to Beyonce so we definitely know hearing great Music sound like cause we are the Consumers
Tyla is so unproblematic and smart. She knows to kind her business and NOT SHARE anything about her personal life and steer clear from drama yet remain relatable. She can sing and dance. She’s beautiful. She WILL be a global superstar.
I’ve never considered myself the biggest Beyoncé fan and I probably never will be but I always learn to give credit or credit is due rather if I’m a fan of a musical artist or not. When it comes to longevity, stage presence, consistent body of work and impact… Beyoncé checks all of those boxes. Would I consider her to be the greatest life performer ever? I mean she’s definitely in conversation but yet you have others like Michael Jackson, Prince, Madonna, Mick Jagger, Freddie Mercury, Lady Gaga and so many more to name so it’s gonna be hard to get a definitive answer to that question.
Well part of your list is dead like we comparing her to dead artist let that synch in and the rest of yo list no shade them white artist not touching her and I love gaga but no
People can continue to try to take down Beyonce (the greater Pop Star in Black Culture since Michael) but still she continues to Shine. Love to see it. Stay mad, haters. 😘
People that don't like Beyonce aren't Haters, I'm not a fan because her music don't move me. Her music sounds the same. Now, Pink, Lady Gaga, Rhianna Kendrick, Jill Scott and others, that's music to my ears and soul.
Wow, where do I begin. The hate Beyonce gets is real and its shame. They are just haters. That guy that commented on Tyla body is the reason women have body issues now. I'm you made the comment you made. Also, you are right that dance is not new! Shesh, we can all be great! No, it's envy out there.
At first I was worried that the Tyla news was about her and Tems beefing. I love that she clapped back at the dude, he was rude af. All 3 ladies are gorgeous and it’s lovely to see that they’re not letting ppl project their negativity onto them. And so sad too that most of those comments were from Black women across the diaspora smh
@@kadijahreneeshe’s not a black woman she’s a multiracial woman and that’s okay. This does a big disservice to mono-racial black women who are kept in the shadows.
Beyoncé really is the best performer alive. I saw her during the Renaissance tour and she was worth it! She gave amazing live vocals, beautiful visuals, great choreo, and even gorgeous outfits too! Her energy is always top notch. Her Halftime performance was amazing. I love how she brought out multiple artists who featured on Cowboy Carter. You can see the passion in every detail. She learned from the greats like Michael Jackson and Tina Turner.
This wasn’t even her best performance and she still shut it down. Her worst shit better than these girls best shows. I like that Beyoncé puts in effort. And the production is there
At this point so many people dont like Beyonce because shes a beautiful black talented woman. I am not a fan nor worshiper of hers as i dont believe in the idolizing of anyone. The worship of her is actually very sickening. But that doesn't mean u can ignore her talents and that she is not an elite performer because she absolutely is. Nobody is michael jackson, but can u mention her among the greats like Michael Jackson.....absolutely!
Some people may dislike Beyonce because you say she's because but most people simply don't like her for other reasons. She ain't no Kelly Roland and she just don't sound good to many including myself. She just don't do it for a lot of people and that's okay because no one is loved by everyone and the only one that should be loved by everyone is Jesus Christ! I enjoy Janelle Monae, Jill Scott, Missy Elliot, Kelly Roland, Rhianna, K.Dot, Pink, Lady Gaga and others, but I sure as hell don't call people HATERS because they have a different opinion then mine. What's wrong with folks these days?
Pink is the S**t! And her vocals out shines Beyonce's vocals on sunny days! Beyonce can't hold a candle to Pink, Cynthia Erivo, Lady Gaga, Jill Scott vocals. Period. Bey beat them in dancing only!!
If you pqy close attention, all these people that say Bey has no talent or She is overated, when you confront them they come up with the Diddy narrative... They have nothing objective to criticize.
I genuinely don’t like that because the reality is Nigeria and south Africa have a love hate relationship… the dance is South African per se but black people and waist movement are so rooted doing any dance that involves it is next to second nature and the last thing Ayra is ever gonna be is a copycat these people need to calm down
@@pelomk9022 How do you explain Rihanna dancing like that back in 2006? She's from Barbados. Hip wining and booty popping is not exclusive to the Bacardi dance.
Better performer doesn't u know off people when he gets jealous isn't stomping on people to get to the top the list basically goes on and on really😂@@jojosurrayyah

@jojosurrayyah Michael gained global stardom without all this technology. He is still running circles around favs in death. Still topping charts, there is literally nooo comparison. Alive for me is Chris.
Tyla is the one that copied Ayra Starr. It’s just that Tyla blew up first commercially. Ayra was out way before Tyla dancing like this. It’s y’all that’s just now paying attention.
@@Tolaimad stop lying ,Bacardi is a dance style from South africa ,it's from skhothani culture its not Arya stane or whatever her name is ,she copied it when she saw Tyla doing it
@timesup4454 Arya Starr been dancing that way since she came out and she was out way before Tyla. After they collaborated on the song “Girl Next Door”, Tyla started dancing like that. Tyla said it herself in an interview early in her career that she use to watch Arya and she was one of her inspiration. Fact! I’m sorry it’s hard to hear. 🤷🏽♀️
Right. Tyla has mainstream appeal and benefits from societal colorism and favoritism. However if you say this, you are a hater. There is absolutely nothing new about what she does.
I think people are so quick to compare Tyla and Ayra instead of understanding they’re friends. You’re going to have similarities in mannerisms and interests with your friends. They’re around the same age, both African and make music. They’re going to overlap
Beyonce is the best female performer alive today. What makes Beyonce still stay relevant and mainstream to this day is the fact that she isnt basic. She performs and sings as if she was ugly. Old mainstream artists were famous for having the whole package. Its not hard to be a good singer, its hard to be GREAT singer. Older Generations come from a time were it was all JUST about the vocals or dancing ability. In this generation its ALL just about the looks. People will hype you up and call you iconic, or pretend like youre the best singer or artist in the world if you are pretty. Beyonce could easily decide to be a basic performer but she still bring those crazy vocals and dancing skills to the stage every single time. People can hate all they want but one thing they cant do is EVER call her overrated considering the people we make famous, icons or mainstream TODAY
If Beyonce looked like Kelly Price or Fantasia; they’d be calling her underrated. That’s really the messed up part. They can’t come at her looks, her singing, her image as a whole so they just say “she’s overrated” with no reason. Jealousy is real. I get why white people do it. Just never understood why black people do it too.
@@lancomenyongo7346 people also forget she has an ORGANIC fanbase cultivated over 2 decades. Many of today’s artists just have followers online. Beyoncé has real fans that buy her music and concert tickets. Not online bots or paid promotional campaigns. Beyonce dropped an album with no promotion and it went #1.
@@lancomenyongo7346 whats funny about the whole worshipping comment is the fact that the ONLY reason people are "worshipping" her is because we keep making people famous and hyping them up just for being pretty. If we kept the same high standards we had in the 90, meaning if we ONLY made people famous who had CRAZY talent (AMAZING singing skills, AMAZING dancing skills, AMAZING performers AND Original) instead of making them famous for looking pretty, then we wouldnt be "worshipping" her because she would be around MANY that are just as talented as her AND mainstream. However that is just not the case. Whenever she performs I am newly reminded of how low quality todays mainstream artists are.
@@akacedlemme retype my comment cuz it was somehow deleted. If Beyonce looked like Fantasia or Kelly Price; people would be calling her underrated. And I hate the whole “yall worship Beyonce like she’s God” but turn around and call Jay Z Hovah. People like Beyonce because she’s a great artist
@@akaced these days people aren’t “worshipped” for their talent. It’s only due to their beauty or bank account. I feel like that’s why a lot of people like Jay Z so much. Cuz his music has always been “meh okay” to me. Beyoncé kind of upgraded his image
Nothing wrong with Tylas body. She's petite but curvy. I hope the girls keep being friends regardless. Bacardi dance is not new... I'm ssying this as a Jamaican 😅
You know, I’ve been watching Empressive from South Africa for years, and I must say I really appreciate that you include well researched and referenced African pop culture. I also appreciate your efforts in making sure you know the distinction between Nigerian music/culture/artists and South African music/culture/artists ❤. It’s really offensive when Americans group it as one thing. It’d be like if Nicki Minaj and Taylor Swift got classified as R&B just because they’re American. 😅
It's not offensive when people pretend like music category and ethnicity is the same thing. Tylas mainstream music is not amapiano. The songs that made her viral in the US are indeed more afrobeat, american and Caribbean influenced than amapiano. I don't know why people are so.despetately trying to dilute and erase what amapiano is just to get recognition in the US. Nobody can tell me Uncle Waffles and Tyla make the same kind of music
@KB.23 water literally has less than a teaspoon of Amapiano in it. It has more rnb and afrobeats in it than anything. Same with jump that I would even argue has more Caribbean influence. Same with push to start, Same with literally all her mainstream songs that have all been produced by the same nigerian. People are tone deaf when they call that amapiano and rnb and if afrobeat and afrobeats weren't nigerian genres, nobody would be trying to hide these facts. Dancing Barcadi to every song isn't going to change the musics genre. As someone to loves uncle Waffles and Samthing Soweta, I think it's kinda insulting how far people go to dilute and erase the genre
both ladies were inspired by the great singer and dancer and very beautiful Tshala Muana, look her up . she was the Queen of a Mutuashi dance and a Muluba babe.
Too bad you the only one that thinks that cause she didn't go viral but tyla does so the numbers speak for themselves, only a hater would think they do better at copying someone else's originality😂photocopy will NEVER be better than the original, you do have a problem with her actually cause you made sure we knew you ddnt cause you came across that way by eve comparing them so you said that to damage control n hide your hate behind "I don't have a problem wit tyla" while saying comments to get her dragged by comparing her😂what an unbalanced being you are sies umdala
The obsession with trying to humble Tyla is insane. They want her to be insecure and shy so they can compliment and uplift her and be in charge of her happiness…you see it all the time - an openly confident black woman pushed and pulled till she looses her confidence and then they start showing love and support.
I remember you made a video saying Beyoncé wasn’t a legend yet it was around 5-6 years ago… I will say in this age she’s definitely one of the longest running entertainers of modern day artists she’s on her way not a lot of artists last over 4 decade eras
Exactly…I remember that as well. Or even her hating on this album and totally ignoring the vocals, history, meaning, arrangements, etc… it was purposefully ignorant of its greatness. This is why real talent and determination will always humble the haters. Keep pushing forward black women ❤
This platform coddles mediocrity. It’s a generational thing. They like relatable weak vocals they can follow along with. Not special voices. That’s why she’s always d eating Chloe. When all along it was Halle with the unique sound.
Bacardi dance? Um we do that dance in the Caribbean, even in Tanzania thats the signature dance and if Rihanna was doing back in the day, how did Tyla popularize it?
Empressive doesn’t know what the hell she was talking about, what people are missing is there’s different variations of that dance in many African/carribean cultures. Some focus on hips, butt, legs and some use all body parts. It takes skill and seeing tyla and rih I can see they’re both doing 2 different things. Even in my culture we have something similar to that as well. What ayra was doing also looked slightly different .
Doja cat and doechii are the only gen z artists eho can truly dance well, sing well, write and compose their own hit music and dont need choreography and 40 dancers behind them to make their performance look good.
I get why you are saying, but Arya and Tems are also confident African women, and we have to be honest about Tyla stans. Sometimes, when they speak, you can hear the xenophobia and racism in their voices. On X/Twitter, Tyla was body shamed by that irrelevant man, and instead of dragging him, tell me why the next day... Tyla fans start bodyshaming Tems and Arya .
Tyla's nationality is African. Right? However, why does she skate around issues involving race and ethnicity? Either way, she's more hype than substance.
An on-going topic on tiktok about black women (or presenting) being bullied for being skinny, it's happening to Tyla in broad day light on social media. These are the same people who villanize women that end up getting bbls
@ like I’m sorry I wanted to see the hype of the performance however I still question who she really is behind all the fame and scandals … I do not have to like her because she’s a good entertainer
It’s a performance. You don’t have to like it or her.but why is watching a halftime show to see who the performer is “behind the fame and scandal?” Lol. Like how is that a goal when watching someone perform?
I am different generation when Beyonce came up I was in my mid 20's so truthfully I am can't be a Beyonce Fan Cause I grew up On Michael Jackson as a Performer Whitney Houston as a Singer, Janet JAckson & PriNce, Played all his instruments Wrote his songs & performed. Tina Turner these are My Standard So I knew how Beyonce came about from Destiny Child saw how she evolved and changed over the years not impress at all by her evolution she's alright but not great in comparison.
Different types of performers with different sounds and styles. Also, your critique is disingenuous because each of those artists received criticisms ranging from Whitney's lack of dance moves, Janet's weak voice. Prince's feminine ways, etc, etc.
From my personal experience being petite and black, black people in a particular get triggered by skinniness because of the worldwide appeal it has. Tyla is attractive to white and powerful elite, which makes people very uncomfortable. Her image gets pushed as the preference because that is what they pedestalize. Black people naturally hate anyone who can level up out of their community. I've been bullied by girls 5x my size and even had guys compare me to them. Black people hate thin women because they have cross-over appeal and more status and relevance.
For your standards maybe, but in Africa and in black culture people usually prefer Tems type of body, but They both are really Pretty and good looking, you don’t need to put women against women
@@RingsOM you’re ignorant for assuming all of Africa is the same. Somalia, Ethiopia have their own beauty of standard. Egypt and Morocco have their own beauty of standard. South Africa has their own. Nigeria and Ghana have their own. Maybe you guys like big bodies in Nigeria but you claim that for all of Africa when there are many cultures and preferences. Tyla has features and body that fits every cultures preference. I’m sorry that’s just the facts.
There is a reason why whenever Beyonce performs, the conversation about who the best performer always comes up......and I think there is a difference between a dance performer and overall performer...dance ,stage command , vocals, range....come on Beyonce ticks all those boxes
Empressive at 2:08 when u were mentioning some of the best performers u forgot to mention Britney Spears & Madonna. Both of those women paved the way for Lady Gaga who mentioned.
@canishshasaulsberry7503 Ok so Britney Spears may not be doing tours anymore but she's still an elite top tier performer who has paved the way for some of the female artists today.
Britney has always performed half way and been sloppy. Go back and watch a concert. Madonna is laughable too. That woman barely moved in her younger days. Now she doesn’t do much either.
Beyonce's performance was good but not epic, in my opinion. Most of Michael Jackson's performances were epic. No matter if it was live or, in his videos. Michael would do dance moves and choreography that could not be done by the average person. Beyonce dancing and choreography is good, but it can be done by the average person. Also, Tianna Taylor is a really great performer, but she got shut out, like a lot of others have been. Only certain ones are allowed to be showcased and allowed to shine.
I really believe that Tyla's beauty/ talent makes some people SO uncomfortable...Tyla reminds me of that pretty popular girl in school that alot of people hate without a reason, but when you get to know them, they're actually a sweetheart. Like she's talented, beautiful & minds her business and yet the SMALLEST things (even her dancing in the club with her friend) folks will try have a go at her. I really believe folks want to "Humble" her and feel the need to give hate, not knowing that it's truly just jealousy/ envy they're projecting on her. GO TYLA!💝
I pray to god Tyla doesn’t change her body ! Her body is literally ART 🖼️ her in that met gala dress is everything ! She’s doing amazing and right now model body are in right now ! She’s doing amazing in music Tyla is killing it in Africa and worldwide from Korea to Japan to everywhere! I love Ayra and Tyla ❤ People body shaming her are crazy
The way I think of Stan’s are like children who think nothing in the world existed before they were born. Like how does a whole TYLA invent a dance style and think no one else has ever done it before or can ever do it again. 😂😂😂
I agree... However, there were a few ladies in the past that were far superior to Beyonce in vocals and dance training: Liz Minnelli & Goldie Hawn did a tv special back in 1980 that feature a song and dance from the musical Chicago (LIVE singing and dancing) Shirley Maclaine also did a tv special showcasing her ability to sing and dance. These woman are trained tech dancers. Beyonce is good, no doubt but I wanna see how she does without all the backing tracks and enhanced mics while still dancing and performing. I'm tired of seeing Bey do Tina Turner.
I’m happy Tyla Ayra and tems not beefing. Idk why people want a brandy vs Monica moment with these girls. It’s not that serious.

There isnt anything to compare other than influence. In the younger generation Taylor Swift is definitely more influential, that being said talentwise the two can NEVER be compared. Taylor Swists rise to stardom in the mainstread media is mostly because of the new representation she brought. Back then the mainstream scene consisted of mostly racially ambigious black women and a few white brunettes lmao. Yound, Blonde, Blue eyed AND Country? Yup people were going to vibe with it.

People don't like Tyla cause she's confident, beautiful and seems to be a nice person. People hate an outrightly confident woman
She literally has a body of a goddess. I wish I had that waist!
Beyonce is not confident! You can hear it when she talk
So everyone else in the industry is ugly and mean? Be for real. Some Black Americans disliked her because of the whole colored ish. Nobody cares that she is pretty, confident and nice. Its a shame she fell for the whole thing and is now lying about being a black woman but hey thats the american music business. The people obsessing over the whole Tems, Tyla and Ayra ish are mostly africans and mostly due to the tension between south africans and west africans.
@@BK-md9cf that's true ,they are projecting their insecurities on her especially darkskinned unattractive women

The body shaming is crazy to me .Some people wish they had Tyla’s flat stomach .The image and body shaming is crazy .She is petite and that’s just her body .Like leave the girl alone bruh.The same people talking are the same ones wishing .
Her torso is so pretty to me. Can’t explain it.
It’s thick crazy men from what I’m seeing
She is skinny with a nice body like coleray. I don't see what people see, I've been around for a long time, I've seen beautiful women come and go in this industry. One thing i know,when you come in wearing no clothes, you stay with no clothes. If you demand you wear clothes you are no longer needed in this industry. Tyler can sing and dance, its a shame.
Tyla's body is on point IMO.
Yessss
It is!!!!!!
Literally outstanding
Ideal body type really. Slim and curvy.
Exactly! I prefer her body type over this BBL trend.

@ Who 🐩?
Either way Bey, is Bey….they’re all amazingly talented, inspiring each generation to come.
The comparisons of women of color in the music industry never ends. It's as if only one can be on top at a time.
11 subpar ⚪️ girls can be popular all at once but let a few super talented, dedicated and outstanding black pop girls in and there can only be one?! God get me off of this planet
That has always been the agenda in America. Divide and conquer so that the Culture implodes from the inside out, with everyone pitted against each other instead of standing together to form a mighty fist. That has always been the biggest fear of the citizens in a racist society who know they have much to atone for and are terrified of the Karma that IS coming. The hope is that the Culture will be destroyed before that happens but God has other plans for his Chosen Ones. Fight the programming. Fight the powers that be.
Exactly. People act like only their fave should be recognized. I support all the ladies.
It’s giving Tyra Banks vs Naomi Campbell. Ppl in the 90’s acted like there couldn’t be more than one amazing Black supermodel and they’re doing the same thing in this case as well
People keep trying to humble Tyla everywhere she goes it’s so weird. She hasn’t done anything wrong and she’s very talented.
Many are envious of her beauty and talent plus they hate to see an unapologetically confident woman from an African country being proud of her culture and not relegating or diminishing it for Western culture.
I so agree! I love Tyla and I think her album was really good. I don't understand why she gets so much negative attention
I know! It’s so weird lol 😆 like the things people are mad at her about don’t even make sense. And she’s so sweet and talented and I love and adore her ❤
I don’t care how beautiful people perceive Tyla to be. Africans have proven disrespectful to black Americans. Her fanbase will remain mostly African and that’s fine. Let her people make her famous…her popularity with black Americans will be short lived because we do not relate to Africans.
Temps is also African
As a South African living abroad I’m just happy to walk into a club/event and hear African artist. There was a time when that wasn’t a thing and only a select few had that worldwide outreach, now it’s not just a handful and it makes us feel at home when we are very far from home.
I wish Uncle Waffles would blow up in America too. She’s so amazing and criminally underrated!!! Coming from an AA who LOVES Amapiano! 😍
@@ilovelife3328 Sorry but unless americans learn what true Amapiano is,Uncle Waffles will never be mainstream in america. Uncle Waffles could have been the face of Amapiano, she was already bigger in South africa than Tyla, but she isnt because she does ACTUAL Amapiano. Amapiano isnt the music Tyla does despite it being marketed that way. Amapiano is closer to housemusic than ANY other american genre and well house music is already not that popular in America, its more of a mainstream genre in European countries.
Reading this honestly makes me so happy for yall❤
@@ilovelife3328 shout out to Uncle Waffles!
@dehititih7571 Yes, I agree. I grew up listening to Baltimore House music (a regional favorite in Maryland/DC) so I think that’s why I took to Amapiano so easily when I first discovered it but a lot of Americans aren’t familiar with that particular musical sound so it may sound too “foreign” their ears.
I haven’t been too successful with getting people I know to embrace the genre to be honest along with other regional music I enjoy such as GoGo music (DC) or NOLA Bounce music. I find Amapiano to be so energetic and uplifting to the spirit though. It’s become of of my favorite genres to listen to daily!
Chris Brown’s collabs with Nigerian musicians had a HUGE hand in popularizing Afrobeats in America and I think it would take for some AA artists to collaborate with the likes of artists like Uncle Waffles to properly “break/introduce” this sound to American ears.
Props to YOU Empressive for giving Ciara a shout out as 1 of the best performers because she truly is and has BEEN since she came out. She doesn't get the same stages as Beyonce maybe due to the politics of the industry and the team behind her, but I respect you for always being unbiased and REAL!
While I agree Ciara’s a great dancer, she doesn’t have the charisma and grace. Performances aren’t about just being a great technical dance. It’s about the soul within the dance, the storytelling, the vulnerability, femininity etc. Beyonce brings all of that to the table and more (MJ did as well).
Ciara also seems to only excel in Hip-Hop street dance. She doesn’t seem yo have range. While Beyoncé has given us from Hip-Hop street dance, to Contemporary dance, to Arabian belly dance styles, to various African dance styles.
Beyonce created signature walks, signature stances, signature hair flips, signature facial expressions, signature entrances. Ciara doesn’t seem to have any signature or be known for any or as many as Beyonce.
Also, but most especially, Beyonce is a vocalist-entertainer who can also sing incredibly well live while dancing, which seems to fascinate people a lot. Ciara is an average singer who can’t hold a tune live talk-less of when dancing. So she’s not in the same ballpark as Beyonce.
These are the reasons I think Ciara doesn’t compare. She’s a great dancer and the female equivalent of Chris Brown (in my opinion) but she simply doesn’t have the full package to be classed a great entertainer or be compared to MJ the way many people compare Beyonce.
She is my fav!
@ I’m not doing a stan comparison of artist with you! I stated how i feel & agreed with Empressive, do your homework on the Legend that is Ciara. She does not have the same vocal ability, facts. Janet doesn’t either. Ciara had for years poured her heart into her performances there’s a lot you can research. & Beyoncé is mainly a “hip hop style dancer” anybody can see that. I said what i said you don’t have to see it for Ciara and “nit pit” what influence/signatures she had and don’t have cause it’s there and been. The people that see it, do & will continue to! And KNOW she deserves more than she receives and deserves to be put on major platforms just like other artist!
@@squarcircle2254you are out of touch with Ciara. Her first video goodies included a signature move. To me she's a better performer but she doesn't have all the theatrics or the budget. Beyonce has a very big budget to go over the top. But I feel usher Ciara Janet usher and Chris brown are better performers as they come up with their own moves.

Ciara as a performer should be revered more. Her stage prowess is dynamic to say the least. She can arouse a crowd not only by breaking out into an intricate, footwork-heavy 8-count but she can also stand firm and still on stage, crooning out her ballads, and command the same level of attention. Love that you recognize her greatness in performance.

Nah. Ciara is a great dancer. But she’s just like JLo. And frankly Jlo might be better. She’s so pretty and always looks good. But there’s a reason that, for all her comparisons to Janet, Ciara is never in the discussion for “best performer alive.” She’s almost boring.

Because people have different perceptions of what is attractive to them. African, Caribbean and even Blk American men are generally not into skinny women. He shouldn't have body shamed her but let's not be culturally dense. It's no coincidence that Tyla is heavily admixed and has that shape.

I’ve never considered myself the biggest Beyoncé fan and I probably never will be but I always learn to give credit or credit is due rather if I’m a fan of a musical artist or not. When it comes to longevity, stage presence, consistent body of work and impact… Beyoncé checks all of those boxes. Would I consider her to be the greatest life performer ever? I mean she’s definitely in conversation but yet you have others like Michael Jackson, Prince, Madonna, Mick Jagger, Freddie Mercury, Lady Gaga and so many more to name so it’s gonna be hard to get a definitive answer to that question.

Beyoncé really is the best performer alive. I saw her during the Renaissance tour and she was worth it! She gave amazing live vocals, beautiful visuals, great choreo, and even gorgeous outfits too! Her energy is always top notch. Her Halftime performance was amazing. I love how she brought out multiple artists who featured on Cowboy Carter. You can see the passion in every detail. She learned from the greats like Michael Jackson and Tina Turner.
This wasn’t even her best performance and she still shut it down. Her worst shit better than these girls best shows. I like that Beyoncé puts in effort. And the production is there
At this point so many people dont like Beyonce because shes a beautiful black talented woman. I am not a fan nor worshiper of hers as i dont believe in the idolizing of anyone. The worship of her is actually very sickening. But that doesn't mean u can ignore her talents and that she is not an elite performer because she absolutely is. Nobody is michael jackson, but can u mention her among the greats like Michael Jackson.....absolutely!
Just an opportunity to see hundreds of Black people in all-white in unison is applaudable
@SuiteVII agreed! Not to mention showcasing genre we created.
Agree she not the greatest but definitely can be mention among the greatest just like Usher And Chris Breezy in their generations
Some people may dislike Beyonce because you say she's because but most people simply don't like her for other reasons. She ain't no Kelly Roland and she just don't sound good to many including myself. She just don't do it for a lot of people and that's okay because no one is loved by everyone and the only one that should be loved by everyone is Jesus Christ! I enjoy Janelle Monae, Jill Scott, Missy Elliot, Kelly Roland, Rhianna, K.Dot, Pink, Lady Gaga and others, but I sure as hell don't call people HATERS because they have a different opinion then mine.

Beyonce is the best female performer alive today. What makes Beyonce still stay relevant and mainstream to this day is the fact that she isnt basic. She performs and sings as if she was ugly. Old mainstream artists were famous for having the whole package. Its not hard to be a good singer, its hard to be GREAT singer. Older Generations come from a time were it was all JUST about the vocals or dancing ability. In this generation its ALL just about the looks. People will hype you up and call you iconic, or pretend like youre the best singer or artist in the world if you are pretty. Beyonce could easily decide to be a basic performer but she still bring those crazy vocals and dancing skills to the stage every single time.
People can hate all they want but one thing they cant do is EVER call her overrated considering the people we make famous, icons or mainstream TODAY
If Beyonce looked like Kelly Price or Fantasia; they’d be calling her underrated. That’s really the messed up part.

I also appreciate your efforts in making sure you know the distinction between Nigerian music/culture/artists and South African music/culture/artists ❤. It’s really offensive when Americans group it as one thing. It’d be like if Nicki Minaj and Taylor Swift got classified as R&B just because they’re American. 😅
It's not offensive when people pretend like music category and ethnicity is the same thing. Tylas mainstream music is not amapiano. The songs that made her viral in the US are indeed more afrobeat, american and Caribbean influenced than amapiano. I don't know why people are so.despetately trying to dilute and erase what amapiano is just to get recognition in the US. Nobody can tell me Uncle Waffles and Tyla make the same kind of music
😂😂😂😂
@@alexandraimani888 Right!!!
@@mimiad397Tyla does not make afrobeat wtf are you talking about? Water is an amapiano mixed with rnb type of song. Go to bed
@KB.23 water literally has less than a teaspoon of Amapiano in it. It has more rnb and afrobeats in it than anything. Same with jump that I would even argue has more Caribbean influence. Same with push to start, Same with literally all her mainstream songs that have all been produced by the same nigerian. People are tone deaf when they call that amapiano and rnb and if afrobeat and afrobeats weren't nigerian genres, nobody would be trying to hide these facts. Dancing Barcadi to every song isn't going to change the musics genre. As someone to loves uncle Waffles and Samthing Soweta, I think it's kinda insulting how far people go to dilute and erase the genre
Ayra been out way before Tyla. Fans just love to segregate celebs
both ladies were inspired by the great singer and dancer and very beautiful Tshala Muana, look her up . she was the Queen of a Mutuashi dance and a Muluba babe.
Tyla ❤
I'm sorry but Aria did the dance better than Tyla does it 😂. I have no problem with Tyla by the way
Honey, you don't have to have a problem with no one to feel how you feel. It's all good
@christinepalmer5015 I know, but if I don't add the disclaimer they're going to think I'm just saying that because I don't like her
To bad it never trended and will never trend because tyla is just that girl
God bless
Too bad you the only one that thinks that cause she didn't go viral but tyla does so the numbers speak for themselves, only a hater would think they do better at copying someone else's originality😂photocopy will NEVER be better than the original, you do have a problem with her actually cause you made sure we knew you ddnt cause you came across that way by eve comparing them so you said that to damage control n hide your hate behind "I don't have a problem wit tyla" while saying comments to get her dragged by comparing her😂what an unbalanced being you are sies umdala
@@User.777.1 Relax, that girl to you, not everyone else. Hope God blesses you with something else to do
The obsession with trying to humble Tyla is insane. They want her to be insecure and shy so they can compliment and uplift her and be in charge of her happiness…you see it all the time - an openly confident black woman pushed and pulled till she looses her confidence and then they start showing love and support.

Damn . Ayra looks so good with that haircut 😍
I remember you made a video saying Beyoncé wasn’t a legend yet it was around 5-6 years ago… I will say in this age she’s definitely one of the longest running entertainers of modern day artists she’s on her way not a lot of artists last over 4 decade eras
Exactly…I remember that as well. Or even her hating on this album and totally ignoring the vocals, history, meaning, arrangements, etc… it was purposefully ignorant of its greatness. This is why real talent and determination will always humble the haters. Keep pushing forward black women ❤
This platform coddles mediocrity. It’s a generational thing. They like relatable weak vocals they can follow along with. Not special voices. That’s why she’s always d eating Chloe. When all along it was Halle with the unique sound.
@mileenakhan4778 Oop! 😂
Halle is nothing special compared her sis the difference is Disney the small sis got that opportunity
Bacardi dance? Um we do that dance in the Caribbean, even in Tanzania thats the signature dance and if Rihanna was doing back in the day, how did Tyla popularize it?
Mind you, Caribbean is not older than Africa. You copied what your ancestors taught you in Africa. Ya’ll are dumb asf I swear
Empressive doesn’t know what the hell she was talking about, what people are missing is there’s different variations of that dance in many African/carribean cultures. Some focus on hips, butt, legs and some use all body parts. It takes skill and seeing tyla and rih I can see they’re both doing 2 different things. Even in my culture we have something similar to that as well. What ayra was doing also looked slightly different .
Doja cat and doechii are the only gen z artists eho can truly dance well, sing well, write and compose their own hit music and dont need choreography and 40 dancers behind them to make their performance look good.
Doja cat is gen z ?
@@KellzBella doja cat is not a gen z she’s a millennial. She just turned 30 lol
Acting like Normani don’t exist is a interesting choice

No one is trying to copy rihanna😂😂
Both ladies are better than riahnna
They hate on tyla so much hate to see a confident African woman
I get why you are saying, but Arya and Tems are also confident African women, and we have to be honest about Tyla stans. Sometimes, when they speak, you can hear the xenophobia and racism in their voices. On X/Twitter, Tyla was body shamed by that irrelevant man, and instead of dragging him, tell me why the next day... Tyla fans start bodyshaming Tems and Arya .
Tyla's nationality is African. Right? However, why does she skate around issues involving race and ethnicity? Either way, she's more hype than substance.
@@LUX_8her nationality is African? Are you that dumb?
Asian woman*
@@lyd2460 That’s why I don’t like her and her fans both r4cist and misogynistic. And she’s Asian
An on-going topic on tiktok about black women (or presenting) being bullied for being skinny, it's happening to Tyla in broad day light on social media.
These are the same people who villanize women that end up getting bbls
Fantasia burns the stage, she is outstanding
Stop acting brand new Tyla & Ayra are being compared bc of colorist 🙄 let’s be for real Beyonce & rhianna don’t get compared… bc their both light
Tina Knowles need to sit down somewhere. People will talk about you no matter what you do. What are you gonna do? Fight the whole world? Get over it.
Tyla looks perfectly fine! I hate how ppl feel like every woman should look a certain way.. she’s beautiful just the way she is!
Baby I clicked so fast I almost broke my finger dang 😂😂😂
Well glad to know I wasn’t the only one 😂
LOL ME TOO
😂
Same 😂
😂🤣😂
Why do we all have to like Beyoncé? It’s like forced on people
Exactly!! It’s weird af…
She's overrated af.
@ like I’m sorry I wanted to see the hype of the performance however I still question who she really is behind all the fame and scandals … I do not have to like her because she’s a good entertainer
Look up the word force. 🤔
It’s a performance. You don’t have to like it or her.but why is watching a halftime show to see who the performer is “behind the fame and scandal?” Lol. Like how is that a goal when watching someone perform?
I am different generation when Beyonce came up I was in my mid 20's so truthfully I am can't be a Beyonce Fan Cause I grew up On Michael Jackson as a Performer Whitney Houston as a Singer, Janet JAckson & PriNce, Played all his instruments Wrote his songs & performed. Tina Turner these are My Standard So I knew how Beyonce came about from Destiny Child saw how she evolved and changed over the years not impress at all by her evolution she's alright but not great in comparison.
I agree with you 💯%! Beyonce was pushed because she's light skin. If we're being honest, Kelly vocals are so much better then Beyonce!
@christinepalmer5015 didn't the dad have problems with Kelly too?
Every artist you named admired her so.. 🤷🏿♂
Different types of performers with different sounds and styles. Also, your critique is disingenuous because each of those artists received criticisms ranging from Whitney's lack of dance moves, Janet's weak voice. Prince's feminine ways, etc, etc.
Tina had all her songs written for her tho.
They are so jealous of Tyla….. Get over it she’s gorgeous with a break body!!!
From my personal experience being petite and black, black people in a particular get triggered by skinniness because of the worldwide appeal it has. Tyla is attractive to white and powerful elite, which makes people very uncomfortable. Her image gets pushed as the preference because that is what they pedestalize. Black people naturally hate anyone who can level up out of their community. I've been bullied by girls 5x my size and even had guys compare me to them. Black people hate thin women because they have cross-over appeal and more status and relevance.
My body type is more like Tems, but there is nothing wrong with Tyla’s body, her body is Pretty asf
Tyla has the better body by every standards. Her body is so perfect bc she’s both slim and curvy.
For your standards maybe, but in Africa and in black culture people usually prefer Tems type of body, but They both are really Pretty and good looking, you don’t need to put women against women
@ Africa lol. You mean the continent with 154 countries with different cultures? lol. Slim is always supreme.
I won't waste my time on someone so ignorant. Have a wonderful 2025!
@@RingsOM you’re ignorant for assuming all of Africa is the same. Somalia, Ethiopia have their own beauty of standard. Egypt and Morocco have their own beauty of standard. South Africa has their own. Nigeria and Ghana have their own. Maybe you guys like big bodies in Nigeria but you claim that for all of Africa when there are many cultures and preferences. Tyla has features and body that fits every cultures preference. I’m sorry that’s just the facts.
it's not "tribalist" it would be "xenophobia."
I think Tyla started dressing like Arya Star. I'm glad Arya has ignored it
@@heartsandpearls239 No.
Yaa tyla stole everything from Arya especially dressing
@@namubiruhadijah2348 no she didn’t.
Stop lying !
There is a reason why whenever Beyonce performs, the conversation about who the best performer always comes up......and I think there is a difference between a dance performer and overall performer...dance ,stage command , vocals, range....come on Beyonce ticks all those boxes
She don't tick most of the boxes for manyand that okay. Everyone enjoys who the enjoy
Not to mention uplifting other black people and incorporating black history and education in her performances..
@@christinepalmer5015 ....which box is she not ticking
@@erikaamwaama551the white box
Empressive at 2:08 when u were mentioning some of the best performers u forgot to mention Britney Spears & Madonna. Both of those women paved the way for Lady Gaga who mentioned.
😂😂😂😂😂 we are talking about artist who are still performing today...Brittany has not done a tour in how long????? Also she said top performers now.....
@canishshasaulsberry7503 Ok so Britney Spears may not be doing tours anymore but she's still an elite top tier performer who has paved the way for some of the female artists today.
Britney has always performed half way and been sloppy. Go back and watch a concert. Madonna is laughable too. That woman barely moved in her younger days. Now she doesn’t do much either.
Well that would sit Janet Jackson on top of them ALL 😉❤
@@donjai9366Ma'am, sir, YOU'RE DOING TOO MUCH! 😂
4:29 you forgot Mya
😏I love Mya but come now. She said performer not dancer.
She sure did! Mya is definitely a performer! If you gonna say “Ciara” Mya deserves to be apart of the conversation!
@@MissOJAYso what is Ciara? And Normani? 😕
Beyonce's performance was good but not epic, in my opinion. Most of Michael Jackson's performances were epic. No matter if it was live or, in his videos. Michael would do dance moves and choreography that could not be done by the average person. Beyonce dancing and choreography is good, but it can be done by the average person. Also, Tianna Taylor is a really great performer, but she got shut out, like a lot of others have been. Only certain ones are allowed to be showcased and allowed to shine.
I like that Beyoncé is back at her familiar, sustainable weight. The ultra skinny isn’t realistic for naturally thicker women over 40.
I really believe that Tyla's beauty/ talent makes some people SO uncomfortable...Tyla reminds me of that pretty popular girl in school that alot of people hate without a reason, but when you get to know them, they're actually a sweetheart.
Like she's talented, beautiful & minds her business and yet the SMALLEST things (even her dancing in the club with her friend) folks will try have a go at her. I really believe folks want to "Humble" her and feel the need to give hate, not knowing that it's truly just jealousy/ envy they're projecting on her. GO TYLA!💝
I wish I had Tyla's body shape!!!
Tyla is 1 of the most beautiful girl in the world
Ayra was an artist first Empressive
But Ayra some how still imitates everything Tyla does.
@@SukiyumeAyakaHere its the other way around

Both started out together
9:59 “Tyla Tyla Tyla” while Rihanna the real blueprint 😫🤣❤️
And what's the problem there ?
She is inspired by riri.
Tyla ❤
Yall trying way too hard to cause beef between Tyla, Ayra and Tems. Whilst they just enjoying their life and friendship😂
I pray to god Tyla doesn’t change her body ! Her body is literally ART 🖼️ her in that met gala dress is everything ! She’s doing amazing and right now model body are in right now ! She’s doing amazing in music Tyla is killing it in Africa and worldwide from Korea to Japan to everywhere! I love Ayra and Tyla ❤
People body shaming her are crazy
The way I think of Stan’s are like children who think nothing in the world existed before they were born. Like how does a whole TYLA invent a dance style and think no one else has ever done it before or can ever do it again. 😂😂😂
They’re very slow, stans tend to lose common sense the more obsessed they are with celebs
Beyoncé will always be a vocalist first, before anything else. She's definitely in her own league; rarely do you get a vocalist that can also perform.
She's a performer. She can't sing
I agree... However, there were a few ladies in the past that were far superior to Beyonce in vocals and dance training: Liz Minnelli & Goldie Hawn did a tv special back in 1980 that feature a song and dance from the musical Chicago (LIVE singing and dancing) Shirley Maclaine also did a tv special showcasing her ability to sing and dance. These woman are trained tech dancers. Beyonce is good, no doubt but I wanna see how she does without all the backing tracks and enhanced mics while still dancing and performing. I'm tired of seeing Bey do Tina Turner.
Prerecorded TRACKS!
Social media exposes just how miserable people truly are
Hatin hoes ain’t happy and happy hoes ain’t hatin.
I like Tyla’ sass. I’d love a Nicki x Tyla collab.
Tyla is perfect! She's not too skinny, she's so muscular!
Tylas body is absolutely perfect. ❤
