Whether you like it or not, Beyoncé is one of the most successful artists of all time. She debuted in the 90’s and is the only artist from that era to still be rubbing shoulders with current industry giants at the top.
If anything, Beyoncé is extremely consistent in pop culture. She’s thrived in the physical, digital and streaming era of music. And it is blatantly clear in her success as well as her influence on everyday life - creating sayings (‘I woke up like this’) and consistent hits.
In this thread, I won’t be talking about numbers and sales as Beyoncé’s influence is truly unquantifiable. Instead, I’ll be going over things such as vocals, performance ability, impact and influence, etc.
Vocals -
Beyoncé is without a doubt the best vocalist in the industry. I’ve linked a thread below detailing why she is such a fantastic technical vocalist. https://twitter.com/wiidhalo/status/1294254034505871362

Performance ability -
Beyoncé is also the best performer in the industry. She truly understands what it means to put on a show, curating setlists that highlight her vocal skills and dance capabilities that truly cannot be matched. It is rare to find someone who excels at both.

Impact and influence -
The music industry would truly not be the same without Beyoncé. She has achieved many great feats, many of which include raising the standard and setting the proverbial bar for what makes great entertainment.

Beyoncé is always used as a comparative, seeing as her name is truly synonymous with being the best. She without a doubt set what makes a quality album and continues to do so, being the album artist of our time. Every piece of work she sets out is high quality and acclaimed.
Additionally, Beyoncé shifted the industry as a whole with the earth-shattering drop of her surprise self titled album, being credited with popularising the marketing strategy. This release was seen as an integral factor in shifting the global music release date to Friday.
However, a more specific example of her influence lies amongst her peers and contemporaries. Everyone she is currently rubbing shoulders with at the top has been inspired by her.
This is shown by the likes of Ariana Grande and Lady Gaga, who have admitted they were inspired to start singing because of her, as well as Rihanna, who Beyoncé played a role in helping get signed to a label.
Critical Acclaim -
Beyoncé has shown to be able to garner critical acclaim in all facets of her artistry. She has 3 projects with a 90+ rating on metacritic as well as a ‘must see’ tag for her film Black Is King. She also has many projects with a 100% rating on rotten tomatoes.

Overall, Beyoncé is amazing and these are just some of her achievements throughout her career.
Happy Beyday!
