Beyoncé has already leveled up after being snubbed at the Country Music Awards. Billboard has named her the greatest pop star of the 21st century.

As reported by HuffPost, the trade publication recently curated a list of the greatest talents in music. On Tuesday (Dec. 3), Billboard released their Greatest Pop Stars of the 21st Century list. The editorial staff ranked the 25 most prominent talents in the game. Included in the exclusive list are the likes of Drake, Jay-Z, Adele, Taylor Swift, Ariana Grande, Justin Bieber, Bruno Mars, Bad Bunny and more. Landing at the top spot is Beyoncé, crowning her as the best of the best with the receipts to match the claim.

Billboard chronicles her epic run of hit songs starting with her first No. 1 single “Bills, Bills, Bills” as part of Destiny’s Child. The group would follow things up with “Say My Name,” which also topped the Hot 100 chart. From there they track her game-changing solo career that has produced several anthems and left an indelible impact on popular culture. Since then, she has won over 16 American Music Awards, 36 BET Awards, 27 Billboard Awards, 32 Grammy Awards and 30 MTV VMA Awards. “There are no flop eras for Bey, no periods where she disappeared for a half-decade, no clear missteps that were not immediately and emphatically course-corrected. There are only varying degrees of winning for over two decades,” the feature reads.
