Dan Doctoroff‘s ‘Bloomberg’ welcomed Billboard’s Bill Werde to its home on Friday, calling on the tastemaker to join the company’s ‘Market Makers’ TV show for a conversation with host, Stephanie Ruhle.
There, hours removed from its surprise launch, Beyonce’s brand new LP became the topic of discussion, seeing its roll out and impact on Pop culture analysed by the Editor, sharing why he believes its release ticks many a ‘game changing’ box.

Queenbey!!!
This is one of the most fierce comebacks ever. Not only is it different but shes slaying after 2 days and itunes sales alone.
The interviewer b**** is so dumb.
Kiiiiii @ the Gaga shade.
I get chills thinking about how King/Boss/Diva Bey is for putting together this awesome body of work and rolling it out the way that she did! I’m in awe of her! I’m stunned and I’ve been that way since I’ve got my hands on the album Friday! She’s just phenomenal.
He preached.
How much of this guy bills does Beyonce pay? Many people are getting sucked into this album hype. Nothing special about this album tbh.
3:00 HATERS YOU HEARD
LMAO YESSSSS SHADE GAGAS FLOP ASS
YASSSS!! GET THAT PAYCHECK BILL!!!
Beyonce letting her music speak for itself unlike someone who has to hype their basic edm music up and try so hard to portray it as art.
@Molly exactly!
She f***** did that. It’s time for every gyal to step their ma f**** cookies up.
Not Beyoncé’s album release being discussed on Bloomberg. This is next level. New rules.
And just like that,beyonce done slayed every b**** in the game. Lord,I can’t deal right now. Just when my hair is starting to grow roots again,she snatches all over again. Ugh,why bey,why?
But wait why did the lady drag gaga like that!
BEYONCE IS OLD FAT WASHED UP AND DONE RIGHT?
SHES ALWAYS TEN STEPS AHEAD OF YOU N***** LOL
The queen. This made me love bey even more
-plays haunted-
IT FEELS SO GOOD TO GLOAT!!! THIS IS ONE FOR THE HISTORY BOOKS. You trolls can NEVER come for the queen again! CIARA STANS should just jump from a bridge and join her dead ass career
LOL That woman was throwing so much shade! From Lady Gaga to the Pitbull remixes..I live. I heard Beyonce has sold 68,000 in the UK from only two days, out selling Katy and Gaga’s first week sells with no promo.I hate to compare but that’s crazy, congrats to her!!
YONCE ALL ON HIS MOUTH LIKE LIQUOR OMFG BEY WHY?!?
She looks a lot like Ciara.
Slay b****. This is how its done. You can’t deny she has huge impact. She also clearly has the most longevity out of her whole generation of peers.
@Slayriah you jealous or nah? kiiii
SLAYRIAH, YOUR FAVE COULD NEVER.
Beyonce snatching all types of wigs honey!!!!
My fave could never what???
Lol
Good loard bey is talented I can’t stope listening to her album is master pice thank you bey for putting out such a fine quilty album you a make a lot of is happy god will continue to bless proteict you jay blue and your family for life long happy ever lasting long happy married more success with this fine album and all you do keep the good work Sam
The hive be acting the f*** up now though. Just wait till all the hype dies out you’ll be seething. & Rosie and the other bandwagons will resume dragging.
IM SO HAPPY FOR THE BEE HIVE!!!! You guys deserve this the most. All the hate from Navy & yall Queen shut everybody DOWN. Congrats To The Bee Hive.
The Album is beautiful. I must admit tho. If the videos didnt come with the album I would not understand the songs at all. BUT The videos make me understand everything Beyonce is trying to make us experience. This was a BOSS move by Queen B….
Ciara fans should never talk about Beyonce again TBH… Beyonce outsold the last 3 Ciara albums within 24 hours maybe less than that. FLOP ASS MESS
Your fave could never pull off a stunt like this @slayriah. I thought she was such a legend and could sell of her name alone? Where’s “The Art Of Flopping Go” on the charts dear? LMAO. GRAMMYS 2015 here we come!
@Stephy the Lambily. Thanks babe.
Your right, my fave would never sell 14 songs. -and 17 videos for only $15.99
Mariah does sell off her name Hun, that’s why her lowest selling album is gold. Even after she was dragged for Glitter she still came back and got a platinum certification for Charmbracelet.
I respect commentators who aren’t insecure or threatened and can give credit where its due. Beyonce should not be doing this period according to some haters previous rants. You can longer shade her for being scared, being irrelevant so they’ll always find something else to move on to. This is going to be a great year for her simply because she has earned a lot respect for making an album like this. Shes’s also coming after her highest grossing Tour. She just keeps slaying
You’re***
You’re right because people damn sure wouldn’t buy it with her can’t sing anymore ass LMAO! I hate to drag Mariah because I was a fan IN THE 90s but I love to see you seethe!
FUN FACT: EVERY Beyonce album has outsold each Mariah album released in the 2000’s except Emancipation and she will NEVER SEE THOSE NUMBERS AGAIN! LMAO
I apologize to the lambs that respect Bey for her talent and POWER but some of yall take us there!!!!!!!!!!!
How da f** did u escape rehab?
FUN FACT: The Emancipation of Mimi (which isn’t even her best seller) outsold every album that Beyonce has released.
& your “fact” s not factual because E=MC2, Charbracelet, and Glitter all sold the same as 4. You tried and failed.
I don’t need to apologize to anyone.
Go worry about the non existant art of letting go and stop swimming in the past. NOW its all about QUEEN BEYONCE #Bye.
KEEP CLINGING TO THAT 2005 ALBUM LOL
SHEL NEVER SEE THOSE NUMBERS AGAIN LIKE I SAID LOL #SEETHE
Fun fact: Beyonce has outsold Mariah Carey in various international countries with just 4 albums and less time.
FUN FACT: BEYONCE IS EN ROUTE TO HAVING A $200-$250 MILLION GROSS WORLD TOUR
FUN FACT: BEYONCE CAN STILL SING AFTER 16 YEARS AND HELLA WORLD TOURS
Okay Mr. Smarty-pants, let’s see if your Queen could get four songs to number one on both the billboard pop and hip-hop/r&b charts off this album. Plus her songs not singles since she make albums have to be #1for at least 7 consecutive weeks. Let’s see if she could pull this stunt off if Bey’s the so called Queen. Oh yeah, her haters will be checking the charts every week. Now we’re making it new rules since the Beyhive wants to talk all that noise.
Lol and Beyonce will never see those numbers PERIOD
Fun Fact: Mariah is the best selling female artist of the Nielsen Soundscan Era and third overall artist.
‘Beyonce makes albums not #1 singles’ and thats exactly what she intended to do.
Singles are for Katy Perry, Miley Cyrus and Rihanna. Bey has been there done that. 600k(possibly more) in THREE days on iTunes ALONE. When will your fave?
Yes Bill said it all perfectly.
Fun Fact: Beyonce started to practice vocal runs after listening to Mariah Carey’s ‘Vision of love’
I won’t go in on Rihanna too much because she’s up there with Pink and the QUEEN tour wise. F*** a #1 single. Psy had a #1 single. What’s your point???? Kiii!!!
Yeessss b**** keep clinging on to those receipts from when Bush was still in presidency
Don’t care. The GP has made their decision. We know who they love more. #NEXT #DONEWITHYOU #NEWRULES
Please, everyone do not listen nor entertain Slayriah.. She is not a true lamb. Mariah Carey loves Beyonce. Mariah Carey grew up with Jay Z back in their hussle days. Ignore her & enjoy your moment of Queen B Slayage
Sorry Stephy! I really don’t like to drag Mariah or ciara but you know how these stans can push your buttons
Stephe the lambily is officially my favourite lamb on TGJ. So honest and unbiased
The hive wanna add Beyonce to the list of legendary Divas. Whitney has Diamond albums, Madonna has diamond albums, Celine has diamond albums, Mariah has diamond albums, Britney slays with two diamond albums & then there is B***** who has zero. & even if her desperate fans try to manipulate with DC sales, there still is NO diamond album. Poor dat. What kind of queen? Or king ?
*Stephy
@Stephy girl i know the b**** is so pressed. Its like it wants mariah to get dragged. I don’t know why its so jealous of Beyonce. Its a walking contradiction talking about Mariah being way above Bey but constantly trying to justify herself against her.
B**** shut up! I’m not a real mariah fan because I don’t like Beyonce? What kind of non-sense? I don’t care about Bey nor do I care about her husband. Besides, it was Mariah who gave Jay is first major hit anyway.
& not when you always talk crap about Rihanna. Please exit.
Like anyone who stans for a legend should just be happy to let the younger girls do their thing.
But because Beyonce gets the most praise and accalim and is actually very talented the b**** is pressed. Funny how it praises basic b****** like britney but hates on Beyonce and Christina who actually have talent.
And actually , you are not a real Stan if you’re gonna like someone because your favourite artist does. I have my own mind and I think BEYONCE IS WACK…. A TRUE BASIC B**** like the rest.
XXX that’s what I’m saying! The Hive hasn’t given a f*** about the other girls! We are in utopia right now!! We been defending Bey forever because she has always received unnecessary hate. Let us enjoy our f****** moment and stop trolling!! That goes for every stan base
Beyonce is slaying omg. I love the album, it her best most artistic and deserves all the success.
Sorry Stephy,but we have to finish dragging this b**** so it can officially go away. Sorry Mariah,I still love you tho @SHITRIAH B****,stop holding on to those stale receipts. You are so quick to drag bey with Mariah’s diamond albums from the F****** TWENTIETH CENTURY. Will she ever see those numbers again? The same Mariah you are bragging about is the same that shelved her album because she was intimidated by Yeezus- F****** YEEZUS. Diamond albums don’t mean s*** if you can’t do the same now. Look at Britney. What do her fans have left to brag about. F****** 1999 receipts. Same with you. That is just pathetic. You may think you are dragging the hive,but the hive is dragging you. Queen Mariah respects Queen Beyonce and vice versa. Your fave knows her place,and so should you. Now go back to your seat,plant your ass on it and SHUT THE F****** HELL UP
Christina? The one with the f***** up vocal technique? The one that strains on every note? Sorry hun, but I’d rather save my ear drums from such excruciating pains…
But she could still wipe the floor with Britneys ‘voice’
Lol what kind of weak drag, Mariah may never see those sales again, the same way Celine and Madonna won’t, but at least she has seen those sales babe, Beyonce never has and never will.
Mariah can no longer sing and she could never perform. Therefor you should dismiss yourself from this post @TROLLriah. I hate Mariah just as much as you hate Queenyonce so I can drag her for days but Id rather now. I’m much too busy enjoying this new album to give a f*** about a lip synching drunk h** has been stans opinion. 🙂
^^Rather not***
Where are the receipts that mariah shelves her album because of Kanye? There was a RUMOR about her being upset that the label was putting most of its attention into promoting Yeezus and not her. But guess what, it was a RUMOR, nothing that was proved true. Please try again. Your attempt at dragging the queen is very entertaining. <3 <3 <3
Mariah can still sing. Go watch her impromptu performances.
ANYWAY!!!!!!!!!!!!! No lies were told in this interview! ONLY the QUEEN could pull this off. NO ONE else! Bey is here to STAY and SLAY!!!! Stay mad lessors. 😉
I have the album its absolutley fantastic. She took a risk and it pulled off she gets my respect.
So she just coincidentally shelves her album prior to the release of Yeezus? *rolls eyes* and keep saying that bey will never see a diamond album. Every time you haters open your mouths,reality bombs on you. Example:Cake like lady gaga- Beyonce will never open with 1.2 million sales first week
Forget B*****!!
Where is your other fave Nicki? Lol @ her making the same amount of money as Mariah when the Barbz make it seem like she’s some huge businessperson. Where is High School? When is Pink Stink being released?
Okay, well if this album is certified diamond then I will Bow. & Cake like Lady Flopga is right though, Beyonce isn’t opening with 1.2 million first week sales in THE US. Don’t get it twisted babe.
Lmao at you dragging nicki in this when it has nothing to do with her. Why is she slaying things past female emcees failed to slay? Forget all the popular music receipts. Bring in the HIP HOP receipts because I sure as hell will drag you with mine
How much did she put in his pocket? We know this s*** is not going to do well on the radio without its “visuals”.
Once all the hype dies down its going drop off and commit 4lopicide.
Beyonce = Queen of Payola. kii
And within 48 hours,she has shifted 600k figures. Brand new predictions are in and they say that she will open with 1 mill. And the sales keep increasing each day. DIGITAL sales.
But Queen Latifah is slaying the ratings with her new daytime talk show though. & Kim is slaying h*** with that new Japanese look. The Barbz overhype Icki. And don’t try to make it seem as if Nicki is a hip hop artist only. Not when she has released all those pop records.
Hahaha he said it perfectly. Congrats Bey. She keeps proving them wrong with every step. I just heard Drunk In Love on the radio.
When was that 600k figure released though? If it was today there is no way that it will sell 1.2 million in The US first week.
I cannot help but observe the fact that EVERY ONE I know in real life who stans for Icky Garbaj and Be-YAWN-ce is a ghetto ass dumpster-juice ass bottom-of-the-barrel trash bag ass HOODRAT.
Whenever I go out to the mall or anywhere, i could hear Mariah’s Christmas music slaying the radios, but I could never hear any of the 190 millions singles released from 4.
Why is nicki fourth on the forbes “Highest hip hop earnings” list and the ONLY female emcee on that list? She also has the most billboard entries by a female emcee. Four years into the game
I don’t understand why someone that stans for aq legend felt the need to come to a Beyoncé post and compare their legend to lowly Beyoncé. Where’s the sense in that???
Please do yourself and everyone here a favour and go listen to one of Mariah’s diamond records and leave the Beyhive alone!
With the sales increasing each day,of course she will arrive to the 1 mill mark by the end of the week. Don’t underestimate the Beyhive. Having to put up with the taunting and teasing this entire year,we are super pissed off
Not u bragging about Nicki’s Billboard entries though. She only has 17 billboard entries that are her own songs . The remaining remaining 20+ songs are features. All of Mariah’s entries are her own. Bow down
Slayriah you are such hater! Beyonce likes & respects our Queen Mariah. Why do you need to bash that woman. Beyonce is the best entertainer of this generation. I may not like her music that much but one thing I respect about B is that she is so hard working. Beyonce is trying so hard to make the music industry FUN again. What she did with this new album (whether you like the music or not) was the best thing that happen to POP MUSIC ALL YEAR. Just congrats & keep it the f*** moving. I love my Mariah Carey but Mariah could neva do something like this not even in her hay day.
As far as yall dragging Mariah Carey, Beyonce & Rihanna its honestly pointless. You really cant drag people that have sold 100+ million records. Those names are now apart of POP HISTORY. Ciara & other flop ass messes YOU CAN DRAG.
BUT YOU CANT DRAG SOMEONE LIKE….
Mariah Carey: Sold 250+ Million Records. 18 number 1 hits…
Beyonce: Sold 120+ Million Records. THE BEST F****** PERFORMER ALIVE…
Rihanna: Sold 150+ Million MAYBE EVEN MORE IN JUST 7 FUCKIING YEARS!!!!! THE BIGGEST POP STAR OF THE 21st CENTRY IS RIHANNA!!!
Legends like Mariah can never be dragged…
Icons (Soon to be legends) like RIRI & BEE CAN NEVER BE DRAGGED
These are people that can be dragged…
1.) Ciara
2.) Chris Brown
3.) Kelly Rowland
4.) Ashanti
5.) MC Hammer & MANY MORE
Hoodrat.
Slariah Carey is a complete idiot. Read your statement again. WEEK not 3 DAYS!!!! How stupid can someone get????
“I love my Mariah Carey but Mariah could neva do something like this not even in her hay day.”
Lol so Mariah couldn’t release an album with 14
Songs and film 17 basic music videos and sell it all for a ridiculously cheap price? Hmmm, what are you actually trying to say babe?
Hate on Nicki all you want but she is the biggest female emcee of this generation #FACT
Anyway 600k would still be Beyoncé’s biggest opening week so team Beyoncé and the Beyhive stay celebrating.
@TINAGARBAJ
NO BXTCH, you’re the one who is dumb, I clearly meant SALES WEEK.
Lmao b****,what did I say? We are talking about hip hop! Stop dragging Mariah into this to justify yourself!
Of course she could release it, but it wouldn’t sell or shoot to #1 in 100 countries. No one would give a f***.
Hive is celebrating and rightfully so, and when the Musicians whom Beyonce has Shut down momentarily , awake from dazed
and getting the air knocked out of them, I am curious as to what is going to happen. Beyonce is ahead because shes got the hook up. Jayz,Pepsi and her own Star Power.But after all the dust settles and shes on the rode again it will be very interesting, to see just how tight she shut shyt down. When the new year stars it will be off to the races, all over again, will Beyonce still be the front runner, we shall see.Enyoy Hive you have Earned It.
Five freaking #1 singles? Bey-tards are y’all kinding me? Yall trying to come at that foolishness about not having #1 singles, and yall bey hive talking about she been there done that. Nah bruh, not in 2014. Let me tell y’all one thing, and this goes out to Columbia records, to Sam , and all the way down to the beyhive. If this chick does not and I repeat does not have at least four songs that make it to #1, we will make sure that Beyonce will not see another solo album in broad daylight. It’s not a threat, it’s a promise and trust me I will be writing Columbia records if 4 or 5 of her songs don’t make it to to number one.F_ck an album sale, I have seen plenty of artists who didn’t do well with their albums then made a complete turn around with a hit song from a movie or a TV show then wind going platinum with their albums. So don’t come at me about got damn album sales. Since her ass wants to be on Michael Jackson’s level so damn bad, this chick better have at least 4or 5 number ones on this album or else Bye Bye. Like y’all said, “NEW RULES” for 2014. We’re not playing these games with her anymore.
@Slayriah Carey
Actually if you want to be technical Beyoncé’s ‘I AM Sasha Fierce’ received a Diamond Album certification in Brazil.
So Beyoncé does indeed have a Diamond Album to her name.
^^^LMAO do you think Columbia is worried about #1 singles? Her album is one course to sell 1 million first week, and her tour is looking to gross between $200-$250 mill. You’re dumb.
@Slayriah back so soon?
Why would the record label care about a $.99 single when you have an album selling at 15.99 number one album in 100 plus countries. You my friend sound like a f*cking idiot. You got to be like 16 with no concept of money. Have a seat!!!
I know Mooriah half dead stans aren’t coming for THE QUEEEEEEN???? Hogiah is over! The b**** career is on life support. If her record company shelves this album for good. Lmao Its over for her. Nick might as well mooch off another female. And lmaoooo off her stans bringing up sales from when Lincoln was president bwahahahahahaha. That b**** couldn’t sale an orange for 30 cents these days. Face it bitchs. Mooriah can’t sing no more. She can’t sell anymore. She just needs to stop trying and go retire to her barnyard. #HOGIAH
Kesha is a better vocalist than Hogoooriah lmaoooo. The b**** needs to be put out her misery. #WHOWANTWAR
^^^ DEATH
so you want mimi to die…
While THE QUEEEEEEEN SLAYS! Hogiah is somewhere n a corner stuffing her face with chocolate fluff cakes. Wishing she could one day slay so Effortless. #POOR DAT
With all her payola , we know Beyonce pays under the table, no better yet gives head under the table to make it to the top. We all know she likes to be Head in charge. The music industry shall crash and burn. I like I said f_ck album sale with those wack ass slutty pornograhy songs she ‘s singing. Y’all can have it. Well let go listen to some good ole Marish Carey, Whitney Houston, Janet Jackson, and Anita Baker songs these women have a better catalog of music anyways.
Gurl shut up you sound pressed as hell^^^
Nice you are comparing her to the legends and not the basic pop peers though.
This poor child @ Bey makes albums…..Bye b****. I don’t see why ur here anyway since u don’t like her music. Do u have a brain b****? Disappear like Mooriah’s career.
I see some folks trying to throw shade at my girl Mariah. That alrlight, Mimi don’t worry about it come back with a vengeance on they ass. Stop the glitz and glamour put on the jeans, T-shirt, and the black leather jacket with the curly hair and give them visions of love, emotions, and dreamlover Mariah. Show these folks how it’s really done. Mariah, don’t stoop so low and make trashy music bcuz your’re way better than that. Mariah, you make good quality music for the soul. Like Baby face told Toni Braxton, don’t worry about album sales, just focus on making good music. Now “Hurt You” is number one on billboards adult contemporary r&b charts bcuz Baby face & Toni decides to make good quality music not bulls–t!
Bwahahhahahahahahahahaha @ This poor poor half slaughtered lamb. So b**** what do u call Touch My Body and Obessed. That sh*t isn’t soul. The latter is an pressed song about Em, because she know her crazy ass blowed his phone up and left crazy sounds on his phone. Vengeance ?????? B**** get out the clouds. Hogariah is soon to become some delicious bacon.
This is for That Slow Dumb Delusionsl H** @ Flopiah Toure DeFlop…….So i guess Aretha Franklin and Diana Ross aren’t Legendary Divas. Because they don’t have any diamond selling albums n the States. B**** go choke Hogariah barnyard sh*t. And lmao @ Britney being a Diva. You’ve showed your knowledge h**. I say you’re banned from commenting on talent. Stay n the lessor’s post. Everytime i see ur ass n THE QUEEN’S post. I’m DRAGGGGGGGGING ur ass thru the Hills of Hell.
I like Beyonce but I think She cheated?! 14songs with 17videos? Who would do that? She is almost in a “GAGA DESPERATION” mode.
Hes stanning hard
I see no point of comparing MC and Beyonce. They have different styles, one is a legend, one is an icon, and they BOTH LOVE EACH OTHER!!
Why are y’all bringing up Mariah, Beyoce doesn’t compare to her as an artist.. It’s great that Beyoncé is doing very well, but a lot of that has to do with hype. The real keys are to see how consistent the album sales singles are…. When something is hyped it gets plenty of attention. But this album having legs is what’s most important..
@Theman
Oh please, idk if you have watched all of the videos and listened to the album in its entirety, but its definitely worth all of the “hype”…just saying.
The man is part of Mimi’s half slaughtered lambs. He’s part delusional and part b*** hurt. So i wouldn’t take him serious. I luv Mimi’s music but her delusional stans will not come for THE QUEEN.
