Well, I think the main diffrerence is Solange writes her own music (to a larger extent than Bey does). Bey doesn't really have ghost writers, all of her writers are credited, she never claimed to be the main writer behind most of her songs.. actually, I'm not sure if my first claim was true.
But I still consider Bey an artist. I don't respect her as much as, say, Prince of course.. but she's always been involved in the creative process of her albums, especially her last three.
By the way, Raphael Saadiq was all over Solange's album, can't really go wrong with that.
