Today, after what seemed like an eternity, Beyonce released the single ‘End Of Time‘ to UK digital outlets.
Available in the US April 24th, expectations for the cut have never been higher- with many fans hoping it marks her 1st #1 single since 2008’s ‘Single Ladies‘.
So, with the world gearing up for its launch and Knowles readying her return to the stage in a matter of weeks, we ask:
Will ‘End Of Time’ Reach #1?
Weigh in below:
HELL NO
Wish it had a REAL video!! that song goes HARRDD!! #1…hmm I doubt it!!
I like beyonce but this song aint good enough to reach number 1
If Beyonce and her team record label don’t push this song with promo, video, performances then NO
Im very sorry but no it wont.
The Beyhive are so unorganized and so blind they can’t band together to get asingle into the top ten let alone to number one.
The 4 era has proved that whenever Beyonce has done well it is because of the general public and NOT her core fan base, which is why she debuted with 300k and its no coincidence her first album came in with a similar number.
Until the hive accept and realize that the 4 era was a flop, B will keep on flopping. Almost like what happens when an alcoholic cant see they have a drinking problem.
If they were SMART, they would band together like the Monsters did and stage a mass purchase on the day it comes out, but they wont…. because they’re stupid.
nope
REAL MUSIC (EXCEPT HYPE ADELE) DOESN’T REACH N0.1!!! SO IT’S JUST HOPING – N0.1’S DON’T MEAN SH*T WHEN YOU HAVE BREAD – GRAMMYS – THE BEST PERFORMANCES!!!
THE B**** WASHED UP ALREADY.. NOBODY WANNA SEE A BABY MOMMA GYRATING AND SWINGING AROUND A BLONDE WEAVE ANYMORE
Newwwwwww Video plsssssssssssss not that s***
Of course it will….
No it will not. Sorry. On the other hand, WHERE HAVE YOU BEEN will.
Im not sure about # 1 but we are coming for that Top 5
Excuse me, to the above comment, since when did ‘real music’ stop reaching #1. Was it as soon as Run The World (Girls) s****** dipped on the Hot 100 or when Best Thing I Never Had fell and bumped its head worldwide. Please let me know.
The way I see it, your comment is the VERY reason Beyonce’s sales are the way they are. Beyonce’s music isn’t any more real or fake than Rihanna’s, Justin Bieber’s or Nicki Minaj’s ok. Beyonce thought she could pull an Adele and release an adult contemporary album that would sell itself. WRONG!!!!!
She overestimated her brain dead stan base who work on a ‘m***** see m***** do’ basis. That means they will only support something when its already doing well instead of supporting it from the beginning so it can do even better.
I really have to hand it to the Navy and the Monsters, because they show you other b****** how a fan base should work.
True…BUT 90% of the songs that reach #1 these days don’t belong there.
i doubt.it gives me a similar ‘run the world’ vibe,and again,no catchy chorus.considering RTW flopped,this might be too.I like the intro though
Spend that money Jay
@Greg
100% Agree
No because she is doing no promotion.
it COULD
if she performed on American Idol, a Talkshow, and Goodmorning America.
but she wont so no it wont.
i dont know, probably not. mainly because it
a)isnt produced by david guetta
b)doesnt say “put your hands up” repetitively
c)doesnt have pitbull talking shite.
countdown was rubbish. end of time is better.
No, because real music never reaches number 1. I would like it too because it is different and worth listening : )
minajesty,
your comments are full of so much b******* but u are a nicki minaj fan so im not surprised u have a single digit IQ figure. you know nothing about how the music industry works, go ‘head wallow in ur ignorance
——————————————————
as for this post, it’s really disappointing how Bey and her team have handled this single. i had such high hopes …. with the remix competition and all. i dont wanna say too much though, there may be hope yet for it in the US and rest of the world but its chances are def ruined it in the UK. i dunno whose idea it was to release an EP in Apr so randomly and only digital release as well knowing she has an older fanbase.
EOT is my fav Bey song ever, if it doesnt become a hit, it’s cause she doesnt want it to become one as this sloppy treatment indicatesso im not stressed. I’ll continue jamming to it on my ipod. i dont stan for chart positions. if they dont know how to handle singles then she shouldnt release any, release your album and go on tour period!
@the real xoxo: i totally agree 😀
if she released it as her first single, i could have reached no.1. i now doubt it, but with a hot video (not the live version, even though it’s good) and several appearences on tv it could be possible. but i don’t think she will promote it well
Didnt she have a while ago to release this song? sorry no one wants to hear anymore s*** from 4closure. That era is OVER. Take care of ur kid and come back with a new album with better songs! My best advice cuz I do love me some bey!
This is not even debatable. “End of Time” will not reach #1. Gotye is killing it with the Fun song. What maybe can, or be a better choice, is Schoolin Life. End of Time isn’t a much radio banger, its not catchy, its just a song, too many great competition. Its shocking to know Beyonce stands for Real Music but will not release. Schoolin Life, I MiSs You, Lay Up Under ME, I care and Dance 4 U with hands on promo.
@MINAJESTY – – “The 4 era has proved that whenever Beyonce has done well it is because of the general public and NOT her core fan base…”
——————————————————————-
No artist cant survive without the GENERAL PUBLIC buying their music. The Beyhive are the only one feeling Beyonce’s music this time, hence the lack of album sales and top tens/number 1s.
I dont think EOT will top the BB100 even though it should.
This era was a mess. RTW was a terrible mistake. EOT/CountDown should have been the first set of singles. Its time Beyonce to sing about something else than Relationships, Love and Female Empowerment.
LOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOL
IM A BEY STAN AND I NO THAT IT DEFINETLY WONT
THATS JUST DELUSION!!!!
A TOP 10 WOULD BE GREAT BUT VERY UNLIKELY DUE TO PROMO & GETTING OUT TO THE GENERAL PUBLIC.
SO NO
I’M A BEY STAN
AND THIS IS MY FAVORITE CUT OFF THE ALBUM
UNLESS SHE PROMOTES AND PERFORMS THIS THEN NO.
I HONESTLY FEEL THAT THIS SHOULD HAVE BEEN THE FOLLOW UP TO RUN THE WORLD THAT WOULD HAVE MADE IT TO #1 THEN… BUT A YEAR LATER MAYBE NOT…. BUT THEN AGAIN… LOOK AT SWEET DREAMS… SHE WAITED 2 YEARS TO RELEASE THAT AS A SINGLE AND IT WENT TO #1 SO MAYBE THIS SONG WILL HIT IT TOO.
ALL SHE NEEDS IS A GREAT VIDEO FOR IT AS WELL. PLUS IT’S A GREAT SUMMER SONG TOO
LMAO!!! NO for sure!!!
*for
i hope so but…………….. with no promo and a out of this world video and especially killing live perf i m sorry to say hell noo team bey for this era is lazy as hell…….
all jokes aside. Doubt it. I love Beyonce but it’s too late for another single for 4 to even be considered. Move on to a new album….but hey you never know. We all know what happened with irreplaceable….
To the jerk who said Beyonce tried to copy adele? Adele isn’t the first person to do adult contemporary. I am Sasha fierce the first disc was actually ac that sounded like it landed from the 70’s/80’s. So stfu.
also if the beehive is stupid for not banding together. Then the navy is even dumber for buying rihanna’s crappy ass ttt.
Lmao in what world?
Why are we still talking about this album?She doesnt care about this album ➡
@JOHN92
couldnt agree more
@HEREYOUGO
its not even so much about the timing but the fact that they are not helping the song in the least bit., it doesnt even have a video, wth, a 1st single can chart high due to hype w/o vid but not a 5th. if i were her manager, the whole world will be haralding this Beyonce’s comeback single. the remix will be the new life it needs, that way those that already will have something to support, both versions would chart on bb. hopefully she gets things right next era. all artists have this kinda dumb eras at least she got Blue Ivy out of it, that’s priceless. they need to learn alot from the endless mistakes this go round
No! i think that song is not good like each song of 4! she need to come with a news album with a concept! & good clip! except “run the world” all that clip was bad!
Or like i ever say, she need her father! or going back with destiny child’s!
beyonce was being a stupid b**** in this era and i as a stan even know that. singles should have been
1.end of time
2.best thing i never had
3.love on top
4.party
5. run the world
6. i care
Though it deserves to, I don’t think it will.
It needs a real video.
And also I don’t think it needs to, ‘4’ wasn’t great commercially, but it was critically acclaimed, I think Bey knows she isn’t getting a top ten with this album and I don’t think she is trying to either.
also if the beehive is stupid for not banding together. Then the navy is even dumber for buying rihanna’s crappy ass ttt.
———————————
banding together crap does not work. marry the night never recovered from its position 29 peak. its radio, promo and casual music fans that determines what becomes a hit not stans, that ignorant fool running his mouth knows nothing
the full 4 era has been a shambles, run the world was the biggest mistake she ever made. countdown or end of time should have been the 1st single. and why do people keep thinking that releasing singles without promotion or at least a VIDEO is a good idea? and releasing it for digital download?! r u serious?? its been available from the day the album came out. SMH
please she dont need no damn father, FOH, she needs to learn from her mistakes and avoid repeating em in future, starting with a team shake-up. her album leak was no accident. she needs people who are hungry for success in the industry, people whose paycheck depend on the next hit. they’ll get the job done. on artistic level she’s doin just fine. i applaud her for taking risks with 4 and sticking to her guns, she stuck by RTW like a true artist. she just needs new hands on the managerial side of things
not ah member of the BEEBIVE but if there is any single from the 4CLOSURE
not ah member of the BEEBIVE but if there is any single from the 4CLOSURE era that should be #1 its EOT…
lets hope this bytch is smart enuff to promote it
No, it won’t. The album was released a year ago, all her die-hard fans got it, all the casual fans got it and all the people who are even slightly interested in her have listened to it and downloaded individual tracks, so it’s doomed. The only way it can enter the top 10 (which would mark the first top 10 hit of the era) would be for urban radio, pop radio and rhythmic radio to synchronize and playlist it massively in the first 2 or 3 weeks and this seems unlikely to me.
Btw, did you just post a link to buy the single? Too much! 😛
😆 Her father dont want her anymore
She f***** up the Bday era by listening to Gay-z,he saved her with IASF then “4” with the camel.Well,Assume your mistakes and Gay-z advices.
I am praying for Matthew to let her flop …Sony already has Adele
Maybe it could reach #1 if she and her team give it the proper promo and attention it deserves. A live performance here and there, a great video . . .Hindsight is always 20/20, but EOT really should have been lead single.
Lol I agree of some comments I was attacked by Beyonce fans for having my opinion, I said End of Time isn’t a great song. The BeyHive does needs a leader, and stop being arrogant when someone don’t like their fav song. I always stand with my songs but Beyonce listens to some fans and forget there’s an “International BeyHive”, I find that sometimes hard to swallow. There are days I just wanna give up. I wish I was Beyonce here goes my single choices. Schoolin Life WW single, I Miss You, Europe, UK, Australia, South Africa, Brazil, Dance For You, USA, Lay Up Under Me, UK, Europe, etc I Care Australia, UK, Europe, etc Love On Top (short version at the end) WorldWide. Run The World/I Was Here fan singles.
lol i think someone prays to Matthew Knowles every night before going to sleep. Do u think he gives lives too?
@Kat Deluna fan – Why do hate Jayz so much? Why do u think Jayz had anything with 4 under-performing?
@minajesty
the hive cant band together, why didnt the barbz(really?) not band together for stupid h**, RIM, RR etc.
BRANDY IS HERE!
Matthew gave life to Beyonce,the person you worship 😆 you forgot
Gay-z is the devil,along with Diddy.Gay-z fans are the pits,he own Beyonce brain
Lol. #1? yeah maybe about a year ago. Motha would have to release the greatest video she has ever did for this feat. But imma ride you Bey, you know my girl.
LOL @ people thinking live performances will save EOT. It will never get to number 1. Period. Sweet Dreams did well because Beyonce was having one her most successful era. Since Beyonce was her manager this era, she should be held accountable for the mistakes made. She seems to think we’re still in 1990s. Thank God she’s finally using the internet …
i’ll die first before i worship any human being on God’s soil. the only person dong the worshipping is u thinking somebody’s success or failure is the hands of another human being. lets hope Matthew gives your child life too. maybe if you find love u wont be so bitter or pressed about another family’s dynamics. slandering names forreal…. it should never be that serious
ya’ll all know this another way of getting at rihanna who by the way is on fire right now in music and in the movie world
Blah blah what family dynamics? lmao next
EOT will flop even if it does “OK” it has 0.00000001% chance to get the top spot
Matthew & I are laughing NEXT —->
It’s mathew who made beyonce who she is! with “dangerously in love”! if he never did what he do you never know beyonce! if she begin with bday like first album i’m sure she flop! i don’t understand fan who never have opinion, judgments & always said “amen” of all their star do! & for the beyonce stan! i always love beyonce when she is in destiny child & U are just child! actually rihanna song killed her!
Jayz is her husband and has little to no say in her career. Mathew wasnt part of 4 , so the only one left to blame is Beyonce, but I hope she will learn from this mess of an era.
thats the thing , there’s no Matthew and you. unless u are his new jumpoff, matthew doesnt know u exist or give a damn about u. Bey is his daughter, u are a stranger nobody.
i think Matthew is more worried about getting radio to lift the ban off his artists and his gazillion lawsuits plus child support. btw hows that reality show going?
even if it doesnt reached the top spot, its not the end of time, u said Bey doesnt care about this album so shes not exactly gonna be losing sleep unless of course to baby Blue
Oh the personal attack=lack of arguments
You know beyonce? lmao b**** SIT DOWN
Beyonce has never sold less than 3 millions,the coincidence of Matthew leaving her/or her dropping him wtv.She flopped,EOT will flop
lol: 😆
fine if Matthew made Beyonce, he should have no problem doing it again, every other and i literally every other artist taht has been managed by Matthew flopped. 4 is one sloppy era, it will pass and Bey will bounce back, she’s not the first to have an underperforming album . Matthew on the other hand has managed a thousand and 1 artists, where they at?
Usher’s mum >>>>>>>> matthew knowles
clive davis >>>>>>>>>>> matthew knowles
quincy jones >>>>>>>> matthew knowles
tommy mottola >>>>>>> matthew knowles
benny medina >>>>>>>>> matthew knowles
i know all those arent managers but u get my point
I’m a fan of Beyonce
but I do not think this song will have the first place, the album 4 is not at all bad as some say here, but the choice of single one was badly chosen, and I never saw a promo also botched it badly made that time I do not regret the choice of the world run as first choice but it will come out of the song when his fans leake has everything been done to support the song that is returned in the top 10 in 25 countries at least including France or Beyonce but I was spending time disleyland paris has to do not care who was passing around her and honestly these disappointing jay’z is a bad counselor for her
SO I Go one Holiday come back and you Fools still talking about this FLOP Album! LOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOL I CANT!
This era is done, dusted and CRUSTED! Ain’t nothing gone save it.
She needs to go and raise her kid and then try come back
The fact this b**** has not had a #1 song since 2008 is such a Kiiiiiiiiiiiii
All The #1 albums and Grammys could not even save it.
Yellow Gorillah is back *Sips M***** Juice* MWAHAHAHAAH
i dint attack u personally, Matthew doesnt know u exist, that’s a fact!
u dont know Jay, Bey or Matthew either but that hasnt stopped u from making ludicrous statements this entire era like u dine with them.
no b**** u sit, u aint no fly on the wall, matthew is fired, get over it and move on, been sounding like a broken record too long. if u feel so bad for matthew, taking up recording career and hire him
LMFAO @ her HIVES saying that she doesnt care about this album. She just wanted to make music and she’s unbothered. PUH-LEASE. If this album smashed, you all, would be clowning but since it hasn’t you would resort to say that the most calculated, robotic, pageant based, female artist doesnt care. LIES. Beyonce should take a few years off and have a few life experiences, not JUST floating around on a yacht but actual life experiences and come back with better, more mature, more “I care about this world now because I have a child to bring up in it”-type music and she might have a chance.
Dont make me laugh if Jay cloned beyonce’s success with a ugly talentless bajan w****.Matthew could do it too.
Why being mad at Matthew ?
He is not deranged to the point to give his own daughter compettion!Gay-z on the other hand is,he doesnt care
Matthew is loyal.do you want him to push an artist against Beyonce like GAY-Z ?
Cause Gay-z will push Goat againt his girlfriend,then Rita agaisnt the goat,then willow against Rita.
Are ppl pressed at Matthew respect for beyonce and loyalty? 😯
If it don’t..o-theefuck-well…that song slays any song on the charts right now, thats one badass song and im hoping for a video to match
Hell no. It’s over for this “era”. And I agree that she don’t need her father or Jay-Z, she needs a fresh team around her for next go round.
Beyonce has too much control for you to blame anyone else ok? She needs new producers, writers and probably a new pr team to handle the music side of her career. She’s been working with the same people for ever. And do we need to hear another song about being broken-hearted, love, relationship and female empowerment? I am repeating myself because I feel strongly about it.
@likane
it’s not that Bey didnt care but RTW leaked 5 weeks in advance, promo schedules are prepared weeks in advance, there was only so much she could’ve done. RTW was too risky to let hang by itself which is why i think she shot the vid early on so it could all coincide with the promo. the rest of the era however was just messed up but it is what it is …. im over it, my thing now is that they dont carry on this nonsense to the next era. thats all
lool! i’m living in paris! & except bee stan’s all people i know who listen that album dislike it!
here’s how it would process
Run the World
End of Time
best thing i never had
countdown
love on top
i care
schoolin life
I just think what lost the will which has had the very beginning, if it does what we say is we fans
Jayz is doing his job. He has a record label to run. And his money is Beyonce money so….
I bet Beyonce and her team aren’t releasing it in hopes for a Billboard hit, I bet they’ll just release it to please her fans. If they are hoping for a hit, she’d probably have to promote the living hell out of it.
lol so loyalty means signing up artists without intention of pushing them to their full potential because they might pose as competition for his cash cow?
oh and now that Bey fired him, whats his excuse?
and shut up about Jay, Jay is a business man, hes not gonna not signing females because he’s married to one. that makes no sense. Jay dint even craft Bey’s artistry or image so there’s only so much cloning he could do
every single mainstream female singer is a competition for the other. what’s worng with competition? if u r have faith in your ish then put it out there. i wont chicken away from competition in my real life so im not gonna respects someone doin that in their professional life
Of course “End of Time” will not reach #1. It’s a fantastic song & one of my favorites from the BRILLIANT “4,” but it really doesn’t have a mainstream appeal (thank goodness).
Ofcourse ! This Is One Of The Best Songs On The Album !
to begin with, let me state that I love Beyonce but i have to be honest.
If these comments are anything to go by, she is doomed.
If you can’t see how important Mathew Knowles was to her success you are just as blind as Star Jones was when she married Al You Doing.
Is Mathew shady? Yes.
Did he intentionally put Kelly, Solange and Michelle on the back burner for the sake of B’s career? Yes
Is he good manager? YES- but only when it comes to Beyonce.
Beyonce for so long has billed herself as this in charge business woman but as we can see, as soon as daddy was taken out of the picture things went tits up.
By no means am I saying acts aren’t allowed at least one flop album, but I AM saying that 4 was poorly handled because Mathew wasn’t around.
Let me break it down for you.
1. Run The World should NEVER have left the Dream’s studio. The lyrics were basic and blatantly trying to mimic the success of Single Ladies and the world had already heard the beat a hundred times.
2. When ROC saw RTW wasn’t doing well, they should have put out End Of Time and put together a video for it (its not as though she couldn’t have done it, remember when she claimed to have shot the videos for B’day Deluxe edition in a week).
3. She started her promo too late. I remember being mad that she was in France a week before the album came out in the US. If she was smart, she would have embraced Youtube and done a week by week video session talking about each song from the album. So a song for each week until the album came out. That would have gotten people buzzing like mad.
4. Why did she release Best Thing I Never Had as the second single when Schoolin Life was sitting there begging to be put out. Did she forget it was summer or something. If she had sent that song to radio before the album dropped she would have attracted far more many people than she did.
5. Where was your television special? Year Of 4 was a bunch of bull and you know it. She should have taken a leaf out of GaGas book and done a huge special. Why not call or B Walters and have a ‘tell all’ chit chat like she did with Sway in the B’day era.
6. And this one goes for her career as a whole- less is sometimes worth more than more. Why does she feel the need to release 8 videos per album. Look at GaGa and The Fame Monster. She only released 3 videos and that album still slayed.
Beyonce needs to broaden her horizons and build a team of creatives whose job it is to feed her ideas because her videos are so bland and boring and they dont help the songs.
Example:’
For the End of time video I want to be served Mortal Kombat teas. I want to see her catwalking through the Serengetti and dutty whining on a mountain top. I want to see a fierce dance breakdown under a lightning sky and her leading a troupe of high fashion Amazonian models through the desert on their way to find her one true love.
It’s not like she cant afford it.
If
@Virtuoso Intellect – RTW leaked 5 weeks in advance is not an excuse. There’s something called a “back-up plan’. And since when did Beyonce’s music gets leaked in advance in the first place. Who leaked it? BTW as soon as the demo got leaked she should have released the real HD version on itunes and later on Radio. She was too laid back and sloppy.
Nope! That song got played out on the radio when the album dropped just like countdown. R&b stations that I listen to hated RTW so much that they played those songs instead and made them old before Bey made them singles. Plus where have you been is about to slay. It’s tine for the hive to let 4 go and hope for a better era with the next album.
krys has no fans ECEPTION rihanna
well it depends on her fans and their support …….
but i don’t see it for this song , the best this single can do is to be in the top 5 !! but not #1 😥
it is a shame this great song won’t do it. 🙁
So Matthew should be vindicative against his daugther?
If he was pushing an artist against bey you will be mad af.you know it ..
Gay-z couldnt push people until beyonce became a WW popstar,he coundt push goatssie without using Bey’s name.
Lmao at the FAMILY DINAMICS comment.I asked you what family exactly?
the one Beyonce is apart with rita-rihanna-jay-melanie
or
The other one?
please.The bey stans said she will do great w/o matthew becoz he had no importance in her latest eras.What happenned? mmm ok fine 😕
I hope Matthew never comes back or gives her advices behind the scene #period
This should have been FIRST.
virtuoso intellect should have a few seats.
An album leaking doesn’t mean s*** if an artist has a loyal and determined fan base. Lets not forget that I Am and Bday leaked too and they sold very well, as did Drake’s Take Care. IN FACT, Gaga leaked Born This Way herself and it sold 600k (at full price) in its first week.
Just admit it, Beyonce fans did not really care about 4 because Beyonce did not seem to care. I hate to say it, but this era exposed a lot of things about her.
For one, that she is an attention seeker:
We all know the huge bump she was sporting at the VMAS was prosthetic and was guarding her real bump, but she was smiling and posing like the entire thing was real.
Unless Beyonce learns to freshen up her act, she’s going to be eaten live by her husband’s pet projects, Rita and Rihanna.
Because though it isn’t obvious, Jay signing girls young enough to have been Beyonce fans since childhood makes her seem older than she actually is. Here’s what I mean.
Beyonce is only one year older than Nicki Minaj, but you wouldn’t know just by looking.
In essence, Jay is ageing Beyonce’s public image and she needs to return with a young, fresh sound just as fierce as BDay was.
Ok I am a beyonce stan & I know where this entire 4 era went wrong. She should have put promo behind the realease of RTW ( the single ) becasue it was an okms ong it just needed more promo behind a really risky song. Then put the video a week after and not a month. Then she should have put I Miss You as promo and then release EOT right before the album came out. Then put out the album for a month then put out Party & LOT. Then when summer is ending put out Countdown. Then wait a month or two then put out I BTINH in the fall and put out 1+1 in the deep winter & then close out with Schoolin’ Life. She obviously wanted a short era so this schedule would’ve been perfect. She didn’t really care cause she was traveling and s***. She also shouldn’t have put the videos out at once cause then we had nothing to really hear while she was on leave. She needs to see that even thought Gaga is her only competion vocally she now has to compete with KESHA, KATY, AND Riri. Even though combined they are not as talented as Bey she needs to realise why they are selling and wake up already. I wish she hadn’t killed of SASHA cause then we could’ve gotten a IASF II. Oh well though. EOT could work if she starts promo like tomorrow lol. But we are dealing with a diva who thinnks she RTW when in reality she doesn’t right now. Also look at the grammys. Single LAdies: Biggest song of the last 5 years and LOT her best song ever. Which won the grammy the one that had every1 and their moma dancing. LOT is better that SINGLe LAdies its justa poularity contest and 4 showcases it clearly. I’m done for now. EOT hopefully SLAY, the rumour has it.
BeyStan for life 🙂
TO MINAJFLOPSTY
ROMAN RELOADED IS FLOPPING LIKE S***… 4 SOLD FASTER THAN IT AND TALK THAT STALLING FLOP… 4 WAS LEAKED 3 WEEKS PRIOR TO ITS RELEASE DATE AND ITS STILL A NUMBER 1 PLATINUM SELLING ALBUM… 1.2 MILLION IN THE U.S. WHERE ITS ONLY A COUPLE THOUSAND AWAY FROM SNATCHING PINK FRIDAY’S AND LOUD’S WIGS… SO YOU CAN SIT YOUR ASS ON TOP OF THE TWIN TOWERS CIRCA SEPT 11 2001…
NICKI MINAJ TRIED TO APPEAL TO THE POP AUDIENCE AND LOST HER OWN DAMN FANBASE IN TRYING TO DO SO…. HA FLOP ASS B****…
I’m not fan of any body! rihanna is actually at the top for me! my two best artist are Xtina & britney! i think beyonce is a amazing artist but she need to back to source!
@ISTANFORMYSELF – Beyonce needs to broaden her horizons and build a team of creatives whose job it is to feed her ideas because her videos are so bland and boring and they dont help the songs.
————————————————-
Yes. They have no effect whatsoever. LOL I remember being mad when Halo Video came out. If that song had any chance of going to number 1 the video just killed it. “Party” vid was horrible. Instead of wasting money on making 9 videos for flop singles, she should just make 5, 5 videos for the singles chosen for the era.
she took too long so it won’t,as much as i want it to go number 1….it jus won’t :/ but she doesn’t care,she doesn’t need it to go number 1 for she doesn’t have to prove s*** to no-one. and i doubt she’ll be promoting it so…
and this is coming from a stan!
Yes Kat Deluna fan I agree with you.
People dont want to see it but I can. I’m not saying Jay Z is a bad person but he is very sneaky.
EVERY SINGLE act he’s done well with has done well because of their affiliation with Beyonce.
There’s Rihanna who was literally sharing make up and wigs with Beyonce in 2005, and theres Neyo- whose credentials as an act doubled when we found out he wrote Irreplaceable and now there’s Rita, who’s being pushed as a ‘child of Beyonce’, almost in the way GaGa is a ‘child of Madonna’ but just doesnt want to admit.
Beyonce needs to WAKE UP and realize she hasn’t peaked yet and that there is an Oscar, and more Grammys to collect.
@ISTANFORMYSELF – She’s talking about the RTW the single, not the album. Beyonce and her team did nothing when it leaked.
@CRAMPED she needs a whole new team or just matthew back. she really shouldn’t be managing herself. Even though its kinda obvious that RocNation has something to do with her career
@ISTANFORMYSELF
thank you very much.Rita is now talking about Gwen stefani being her greatest idol.What a lie? this b*tch was licking Bey’s feet.But I guess they dont wanna make the same mistake they did between goat & B.
I dont hate Jay-z,I hate the person who helps his sneaky weays.
I wish Bey the best but I dont care anymore.EOT deserved to smash,it wont ..it just wont.
@BBTONY6 – Isnt it obvious? She cannot manager herself. Or maybe she just got to comfortable.
Kat Deluna Fan Amen sister!
Because the press lie people think that anything sensational or really ‘far fetched’ about a celebrity must be a lie, but people should know this:
In an industry where money is just waiting to be made people will do whatever it takes. So these stories aren’t always fake.
I would NOT be shocked if Beyonce and Jay Z got into fights over Rihanna because the whole set is up sooooo stupid.
Could you imagine your biggest competition being your spouse’s act. It’s almost like the CEO of Coca Cola being married to someone, who then decided to create Pepsi. It makes no sense to me and If i were Beyonce I would force Jay to send Rihanna elsewhere.
What B needs to realize is that she is no longer on top and that Rihanna, Katy and GaGa are in her place because it doesn’t matter how talented or not they are, they are still selling more than she is.
Its high time she calls her dad, makes him apologize for stealing her money and reopen Music World but have an independent company oversee her finances to make sure Ol Matty doesnt rob her again lol
yes Bey will do fine w/o Matthew i 100% stand by it, so wat she’s had missteps, its part of life, its part of growth. fear of failure is a coward’s excuse for leaving the training wheels on all their lives. they become an appendage to one person they believe holds the key to their success thus unable to stand on their own two feet
he doesnt have to push an artist against Bey he just has to manage one to success. that’s not vindictiveness that would just be him doing his day job as a MANAGER and he’s yet to do that !
if Beyonce presence in Jay’s life means more success in his professional life, amen to that,
girl we are on the same page with that one. i dont want Matthew back either lol
@CRAMPED exactly! and when she came back the music world changed and she tried to go “against the grain” and she came out with a brilliant album but she didn’t care about tumblur or twitter when the WW fans beasically stopped giving a f***. Sad but oh so true.
Well, i’m not blaming Jayz for anything. I doubt her has control over his artists image anyway. He’s doing his job. Beyonce needs a new everything: Manager, Producers, Writers, Image, Songs and a whole new direction. Period.
Who ever this is “von tae”. Your stuff just popped up on my phone. But won’t be using your personal stuff lol just saying.
@BBTONY6 – exactly! and when she came back the music world changed and she tried to go “against the grain” and she came out with a brilliant album but she didn’t care about tumblur or twitter when the WW fans beasically stopped giving a f***. Sad but oh so true.
—————————————————————-
She should have at least used twitter. She needs advice from those closest to her and she needs to be told the truth.
Mathew gave up his job for Beyonce and Destiny’s Child. So what if he decided to “take” some money? Nobody wouldnt do that for her, not even Jayz(Who am not blaming)
@CRAMPED
she was in paris for crying out loud shooting her album package and a magazine editorial, how much could she have done? u act like its something she couldve done within an hour or so. i dunno who leaked the son but i know u r not blaming her for dat hell naw. all artists music get leaked so thats btw. im the 1st to admit this era was sloppy but heaping all the blame on her is unfair. things could’ve picked up if she’d chosen a summery 2nd single and promoted ideally from then on out
Call me crazy but I like the album 4 and “End of time” is one of, if not my favorite song off the album. Bey has had success and sometimes u win sometimes u lose but overall as a fan I like 4. Whether or not it reaches number 1, I doubt it considering the reception this album got. I hope it does though. Its a cool song.
If this was released during the summer with a hot video and paid enough radio stations, I think i could have had a chance….. But I doubt it. I think she should release Schoolin’ Life, thats the closet pop/dance song she has.
Someone said she sing about something other than Love, relationship, and female empowerment…… so I guess she should about f******, partying, drugs???? IM lost.
Anyway, I just wanna see the video. And I wanna see her on the stage. Of course Imma go out and request and buy the single…
She is doing 100% fine without him..we can see it crystal clear 😆

——————
Because she is stupid.Look how rihanna is all bothered about Jay-z promoting rita (see the swag,hair she imitated to ruin the girl career),the funny is that Rihanna is actually older than Beyonce when he pushed her against his gf.Rih also has more albums than B.
Matthew never stole s*** ;they did an audit …a f***** “audit”.
It’s funny how the behive said he had to say in her career but he had eye on her comptability.All lies and set up.
well im done guys. whether u a fan, stan, bandwagoner, casual observer or hater we can all agree this era could’ve been handled better than it was. s*** happens, c’est la vie. the most important thing is that i hope she’s learned from all of it in retrospect and comeback like the boss b**** she is. Some of my older favs had their best eras in their 30s so i still have the highest expectations from the greatest artist of this generation.
that’s all
imo i would have loved for beyonce to have released schoolin life as the first single, i could of seen that going to #1! end of time is one of the better songs on there but i just dont see it going #1, i would still hope that maybe a top 10 or atleast another top 20!! i would much rather for her to just do a soundtrack for a star is born, that would be hot!!
@ISTANFORMYSELF – I love Beyonce as much as you do, but thats not going prevent me from saying the obvious. She (because she is managing herself) didnt have to leave Paris to try to save RTW & 4 from becoming a mess.
if Beyonce presence in Jay’s life means more success in his professional life, amen to that,
————————-
Amen ?!
We thougt they never mix Business and relationshion.
You know the opposite (Jay brings something other than competition and using her) never happens.
I understand why Matthew never liker his camel ass.
@ Virtuoso Honestly I don’t think being in another country while you’re promoting ( or not in this case) was a good idea. Also Gaga had like almost a year of hype and promo ie. 2010 VMAS. So when people talk about her 1.1 they really shouldn’t. So bey killed this album. Everychance she had after RTW She didnt use it and thats why we are talking about EOT almost a damn year after the album came out. And as history proves when Jay is more in Beys carrerr her albums flop but with Matthew we got her 2 biggest albums: DIL & IASF!! B’day ( except deja vu & irreplaceable. & 4= Beyonce flopping.
@BEYSTAN – Someone said she sing about something other than Love, relationship, and female empowerment…… so I guess she should about f******, partying, drugs???? IM lost.
————————————————–
Oh, that was me. Its like almost every song is for Jayz. It becoming Boring. No one wants to hear it anymore. She needs to dip into her creative genes and come up with better songs people of different background can relate to. It called diversity.
If Beyonce wants a number one she needs to get her s*** together. The promo for the whole 4 era was sloppy. Best Thing I Never Had should have been a top 10 hit if it had only recieved the right promotion. Same with Countdown. If she does End of Time the right justice it could crack top 10. But I dont really see it helping out 4 at all.
Ugh, the 4 era reminds of Xtina’s Bionic era: just messy. All the wrong songs chosen at the wrong time with the wrong amount of promotion.
I’m sure it will….on the Dance Chart..
I don’t think the song will go number 1 as it already a year old. She would need to add a rapper and do a remix version.
I am sorry I love Beyonce to death, but Rihanna Where Have You Been will be the summer anthem. They are both releasing the songs at the same time.
Oh, that was me. Its like almost every song is for Jayz. It becoming Boring. No one wants to hear it anymore. She needs to dip into her creative genes and come up with better songs people of different background can relate to. It called diversity.

AGREE 100%%%%%% @CRAMPED
I don’t believe it will make top20 never mind number 1. Beyonce needs her father back and manage her Jay-Z doesn’t care about her career as he has two acts making him money. Beyonce should have never mixed business with her personal live.
@MissImpartial – Is Beyonce managed by Roc? This has never been made clear to her fans. We were told Beyonce is managing herself. So that is what we believe.
I have always wondered who leaked RTW. And why.
If she is managed by RocNation then that would make sense…
I cant wait for the next era. i am tired with the mess that is 4. I want to see Beyonce on top again.
But for all we know WHYB might flop….*shrugz*
The song isn’t going to reach #1, top 20 at most.
@BBTONY6: GaGa isn’t even better than Rihanna vocally, so what do u mean by GaGa is Beyonce’s only competition vocally?
And to all the fools who must compare artists all the time, at least compare people that are in the same genre and debuted in the industry at the same time. What does Beyonce have in common with Katy Perry and co?
yes! that’s the world! we hope to see beyonce in top again! with good hits & killing dancing
any ways if jay’z did not bring competition to the other person would have done, with proof gaga, nicky, I find me that the success of his dazzling girls is gaga is imposed 3 years producing not only an issue with it is it has to bring something fresh with it’s theme costume ACCOMPANIED album and vocally she is an artist unlike other melts shame the profession
The problem is that he jay’z associate the name of his wife with her but even protect the jay’z did nothing to reproach himself he is working he is a businessman, but the problem is with Beyonce herself who does not listen it’s fans that is why I am very satisfied with her tumblr and twitter today as what we can of his talk with her directly from our displeasure when it should be
the likes of Beyonce we must tell him when she made her stupidity ever listens to us is that we did this year is incredible leake the album three weeks before its release as the first single we try as best wrong to wear the single at the hot 100 but released later we ratrapper with the release of the album by reaching first place in the united state, in uk, and in France
Beyonce took control in the 4 era, and tried to repeat what Matthew did to fix his mistakes with B’Day, but the methods didn’t work this time. In the B’Day era, they released an edgy, instrument-heavy record, Deja Vu, which didn’t catch hold, then released a monstrously popular and catchy anthem-song, Irreplaceable, and a video anthology to save the project. They did the exact same thing here with RTW followed by BTINH and a bunch of videos. The problem here is that those two songs are the two weakest songs on the album AND nothing was gonna change the fact that the public weren’t feeling either. She SHOULD have released EOT or Countdown, and then ease her way into such an edgy-sounding record as RTW. At this point, I say just do small shows here and there while working on the next album. 4 has critical acclaim. Unless you’re gonna release a video for EOT and REALLY promote it, why bother. No one faults you for focusing on your growing family while you prep for the next project.
STEPHEN Ok watch Rihanna and watch Lady Gaga. How can you see any performance by them and say Gaga isnt better. The reason I compared KAty & Bey is because they are aiming at the same auidience. I just feel like her IASF promo was amzing. WHy not use that same idea x2 and have #1s? When ddealing with risky music you have to try 10000x harder and I don’t think Beyonce saw/sees that.
Don’t know about #1 maybe top 10…this song is almost an yr old.
I dont understand how everyone speaking on what beyonce did as if they were face to face making the decisions with the team..? I liked the cd, especially enjoyed this song. Y’all doing to much these days , just enjoy the music! But me personally beyonce could have so much fun with this song, twist it flip it slow it down ,make the beat go harder . It’s like a ball of clay , mold it girl!
@BBTony6: you’re right, GaGa is better than Rihanna on stage, but vocally she isn’t much better than Rihanna, and vocally GaGa doesn’t belong in the class of Beyonce.
It makes more sense to vocally compare Beyonce to the likes of Alicia Keys, Jennifer Hudson, Brandy, Fantasia, Kelly Clarkson, Christina Aguilera, even Adele. Even tho Fantasia and Brandy and Kelly Clarkson are better vocalists than Beyonce. But Beyonce seems more vocally skilled than Jennifer Hudson and Christina Aguilera, even tho J-Hud has a more powerful voice than most of them that I mentioned. GaGa is just a step ahead of Katy and Ke$ha….their music has more in common anyway. As for Beyonce, don’t think she has reached her full peak yet, since this is just her 4th album that flopped(in her own standards)
@AI
She tried but she failed misearbly..that’s why Matthew is laughing somewhere
@CRAMPED
She is managed by Roc Nation obviously but lying about it like we stupid.They leaked her album.Later,WTT never leaked 🙄 she is a so gullible
@LIKANE
If Bey could have competition whenever it came from Jay or not,why the hell are goats mad at Rita??
f*** all you wasps!!!! haters!!! suck beyonces d*** with some duck sauce f***!!
@CRAMPED
I think she is managed by RocNation but didn’t want to say it as she just fired her father. She probably thought that she is going to get a backlash as Jay and Matthew never liked each other. And one other thing is Beyonce wants to potray that she is a superwoman and probably wanted to take all the credit for the success and say she managed herself.
@MissIpartial – Ok. Well, I hope she gets a new manager or at least call Matty back because RocNation did nothing for her.
stop until proven otherwise we have no evidence of whether nation manages his rock career and therefore no assumption you want it enough to pass the whole day for a thief
any such credit will be made in the run of his career alone, for once that the debate is supposed to go here you do not get out of your discour she steal such credit when you know what has never been convicted for anything is am
the hype is gone. NO ONE is checking for this song. It’s literally a year old. They better get a Clear Chanel Deal ready, get those payola checks sent out, otherwise it’s not going to do anything.
BEY FAN…

yassss boy,u ain’t never lied with your fine a lean ass 😉 I also love lay up under me! I’ve said it from day one,the single choices is what killed this great album 4 from the get-go!
1st single should have been: schoolin life or end of time
2nd single :countdown
3rd single:Love on top
4th: start over
5th:lay up under me or I miss you or I care
6th and final, Party to end the era on a high note!
this album would have been bigger than IA..SF coz content-wise,it was better than all her albums since b’day and on the same level as DIL!
HA! AND I ACTUALLY AGREE WITH @COMMANDEROFTHEDANCEFLOOR’s comment made at 1:24 pm :O
@MISSIMPERTIAL
We all know this but why lie to your fans??
———————
Roc Nation did something for her career,they ruined it …Roc Nation should keep managing untalented artists.They are better at than ( ask Melanie,Jcole,Willow 😆 :lol:)
Lmao the odds of Beyonce hitting #1 are equivalent to the odds of Katy Perry not hitting #1 😀
@Kat Deluna Fan
J.Cole untalented? Girl bye, hes the most talented rapper to breakthrough in years.
The anticipation for this single has died off. If it is to go into the top ten, The record label needs to promote it (ad placement). a new video with a strong theme and new choreography is needed. Billboard awards and B.E.T Awards and American idol are great to reach a wide audience, and the focus needs to be on this single not end of time, I was here and i care all at the same time. Hopefully her team can pick up the promo in the coming months. there is no reason this album should sell less that 4 million copies ww buy the end of its release date year. (June 28th)
@KATY
The ppl I named are the talented ones with f***** up promotion like Bey 🙄 smh
@KATDELUMA FAN
I promise i ain’t coming for you,but why you so mad with mamayonce? I understand just no longer relating with her and her music,but then aren’t you supposed to just move on? coz now from what you write about her,one can easily detect bitterness…i may be wrong though. and again,im just asking,nothing personal.

@OH BABY
I dont know why you are asking me this question.I came here to say the same thing many ppl said :EOT will flop
I aint bitter,I am happy she is flopping under Jay’s management tho 😀
Beyonce was dealing with bigger things than an album this era- a father’s betrayal, newe managenment, miscarriage, pregnancy etc that’s alot. this is 1 out of 4 eras,
MISSIMPARTIAL
April 22, 2012 at 3:36 pm
u think she’s managed by roc nation, do u have any proof? no so u cant use the word lies unless u can prove what she said at the time to be untrue
and i also said the same thing,EOT will not be number 1 coz it’s just too old now. But that’s beyond the point,the point is the way you NOW talk about Bey gives off bitterness………just an observation. and why are u so certain she’s under Roc nation/Jay’s management? 4 was just handled badly because it was just too much on her plate when they pre-maturely launched this album. She was still in her “high-risk” stages of her pregnancy which is why promo was sloppy coz she was dealing with what matters to her(not to say her fans don’t matter to her) but she was pregnant!
the message above^^^^ was directed to @Kat deluna fan
I hope it at least goes top ten since some people insist on using the Hot 100 as the indicator of whether an album flopped or not. I guess those people would have to stop calling 4 a flop. At the end of the day it will really be up to Beyonce. If she does promotional performances and releases a video while its getting radio airplay than it will probably be a hit. If she doesn’t combine those 3 simultaneously then it probably won’t be a hit. It’s not rocket science. So far she seems content with album sales and considers 4 a hit on that basis and therefore is not much concerned about getting a Hot 100 hit. So we’ll see if she even bothers to push the single.
Maybe Beyonce doesnt really care about “4” that much anymore, but to say she’s content with her worst album sales to date is really pushing it. lol
Beyonce is ambitious, a perfectionist and she want to excel at everything and that is some of the reasons why I am a fan. I would be disappointed if she comes out and say shes satisfied with the this era.
@OH BABY
Because somebody asked me why I dislike Jay-z earlier *duh*
Yes she will. Stay mad b******!!! #QueenB4Life
It’s amazing how much weight the Billboard Hot 100 is given. While important, it really isn’t the “be-all end all” as it is portrayed. The BB hot 100 represents whatever type of music is “hot” at the moment. Beyonce is an r&b artist so her songs are going to naturally do better on the r&b chart than they will on the hot 100. The hot 100 is currently being ruled by dancey pop tunes by artists like Katy Perry and Ke$ha. An r&b artist’s success should not be judged by success on the hot 100 alone. The r&b chart should carry just as much weight for an R&B ARTIST. Just as a country artist would be judged by how well they chart on the country chart, and techno music how it charts on the Dance/ Club Play, etc. etc.
There is where the single from ‘4’ have been winning. With “Best I Never Had” reaching #4, “Party” staying at #2 for weeks and weeks, and “Love On Top” staying at #1 for weeks. “Countdown” also ranked at #12. It would be nice to have all singles chart #1 on the billboard hot 100. However, not doing so doesn’t mean you’re a “flop” by any measure. You guys take this all too seriously.
WITH PROPER PROMO AND VIDEO RELEASE,NO DOUBT IT WILL BE NUMBER 1 AND ALL THE MOTHA FUCKA HATERS WILL BE SHADED
EXCUSE ME HOPELESS B******,BEYONCE OUTSOLD YOUR F***** FAVORITES WITHOUT EVEN TRYING!!
people on this post is doing the most which means to much. many artist have these seasons in their career when it isnt going to well. Bey is a perfectionist, survivour and shes very talented. she has the ability to do more than whats been done thus far in her career. my only thing with bey at this moment is she need to let go of the 4era.
#will always be my main b****
@kat deluna……whats your hate toward bey for? were you ever really a fan

THIS IS A REALLY GOOD SONG AND IT WILL DO JUST FINE
🙂
@CRAMPED, Records sales in general have gone down/decrease every year. Most artists with longevity and great sales previously in their career aren’t selling how they use to it’s just something that all artists have had to adjust to by relying on other projects besides record sales (like endorsements, touring, movies, etc.) Beyonce recorded a mainly R&B album, she knew it was not her most commercial album but wanted to have the artistic freedom to record what she was inspired to record and felt she earned that right. Beyonce may be a perfectionist but she is also a realist and has not put all of her eggs in one basket. Like I said, I don’t think Hot 100 hits was her priority and all things considered, she should be pleased with the fact that she had the highest selling R&B album of the year, debut at number one with 300K+ sales, and was able to go platinum in less than 6 months in the US alone and is still releasing singles, several top ten R&B songs (one sat on the top of that chart for over a month). All that was probably enough to make her content based on today’s sales climate, especially for R&B artists. Her real fans will support her decision to focus less on commercialism insteading of jumping on the bandwagon with those recording and releasing the latest sound just to try to assure a high position on the Hot 100.

4/24 END OF TIME ON US,BEYHIVE MAKE SURE TO BUY IT ON ITUNES..APRIL 24
BTW, of all the releases thus far, I think EOT has the most potential. Agree that fans should support the single 4/24. Like I said, I think it will do well with promo, airplay, and a video.
#1 – Beyonce is not managed by Jay-Z or Roc Nation, and until you fools insisting to the contrary can provide absolute proof — not speculation or round-about theory — but real proof; I refuse to indulge you on it. Jay is Bey’s husband and occassional collaborator, and while I can believe that he probably gives her unofficial career advice, I see no evidence that suggest he has any professional rank with her. Where Beyonce went wrong was in managing herself. *No* big star should be doing that. It’s her job to perform and be presented with deals; not to make them herself, or to arrange her own itinerary. That’s too many hats for one person. The ‘4’ era was mishandled. There was no “Crazy In Love” or “Single Ladies” on the album, but several songs had the potential to be sizable hits, but Beyonce’s ‘team’ (herself) didn’t formulate a real plan to adequately promote the album. They just randomly threw meat at the ceiling hoping that something would stick and not much did.
#2 – To the person who said that Beyonce’s fans should be like Rihanna and Gaga’s fans, because (according to you) they set some kind of bar for supporting their idols or whatever…man shut up. This person went on to reference that mass download day that Gaga fans ‘organized,’ but failed to acknowledge that the song they rallied behind didn’t even go top 20. Why in the hell do Beyonce fans need to follow *that* example? What good did it do? Beyonce fans supported her *album* by buying it up enough to ensure that it a) went to #1…b) stayed in the top 10 for 2 months…and c) sold over a million in the U.S., which is concerned a hit by today’s standards. So what’s this really about? That those same fans didn’t flock to iTunes to spend chump change buying singles from an album that they already owned? Are you kidding with that s***? No bet. Beyonce fans buy her albums, they don’t need to waste change and hard drive space buying the same s*** twice. Just goes to show that despite how sloppy her handling of 4 was, her fans were dedicated enough to have her back and not let her ALBUM flop. Therefore, Beyonce fans DON’T need to take any examples from any other fan base, so kill that noise. You sound dumb.
#3 – Beyonce does not need to come out with some ridiculous, forgettable, by-the-numbers “pop/dance” song that will hit and run, and age disgracefully. Aren’t you all sick of that thumpa-thumpa b******* yet? How old are you, 12?! Let the likes of Katy Perry and Rihanna do that corny pop crap. Beyonce went against the grain and, yeah, she slightly suffered for it…but in the end, I have more respect for the sound of ‘4’ than I ever would have if she had put out her own version of that turn-your-brains-off “We Found Love”/”Part of Me” crap (which she could have easily done) that would have appealed to high school suburbanites who weren’t her fans, but would have pissed off her core audience AND exiled from black radio. I have no need or desire for Beyonce to Dr. Luke herself up on some uber-obnoxious 3 minute track catered to gay white boys, their f** h***…and the wannabe-white black folks that try to hang with that crap. Rihanna is fake enough to do some dumb s*** like that. I don’t need or want it from Beyonce.
#4 – I agree that the ‘female empowerment’ theme is played out, but who in their right mind would suggest that she (or anyone) would stop recording love songs? What the f*** is she supposed to sing about? Getting drunk? A grown ass woman like Beyonce shouldn’t resort to singing about non-issues like ‘party rockin’ or whatever to appease you sexless virgins who’ve never been in a relationship, and therefore can’t relate to songs about love. F*** outta here with that s***. She’s 30, not 15. Her subject matters aren’t an issue. If you want Rebbecca Black, then go listen to Rebbecca Black.
#5 – Despite the fact that none of the ‘4’ singles were earth-shatteringly successful, according to Billboard, any song that cracks the top 40 is considered a ‘hit.’ Three out of her four singles from the album did just that, so…hush. The whole point of singles is to promote/sell the album they’re from. Since ‘4’ sold over a million copies in the US and basically did the same amount of business that albums with stronger hits did in this overall weak sales climate, I fail to see how this album is a “flop.” If an album can sell without the presence of strongly performing singles, then nothing is lost. In fact, it’s actually more impressive. What I find more embarrassing is when an album scores multiple top 10 and #1 singles, yet still fails to sell 2 million copies in the U.S. That doesn’t make sense. Who the hell wants to be a ‘singles act?’ Where’s the money in that?
#6 – No, EOT will most likely not go to #1, or even crack the top 10. The buzz about the song has grown cold and there was too large a gap in between it and the previous single. And in them meantime the album has run its course. She’d be lucky to go top 20 with this. It could have been a big hit, but she waited too late to serve it up.
Point 4 is all TGJ asked for.She ruined EOT’s chance to smash and she did the same thing with LOT,she could have send it to the radios before the performance,make a great video and premiere it with hype.
But nooooooooooooooooo B**** is dumber than an oyster.She will rather go at the WTT tour and promote Rita and Kelly r
Good b****,Matthew didnt tell you s*** I guess 😆
@ABSOLVED – At end of the day I guess us her die-hard fans just want to see her do well. I am happy she didnt do the generic dance/pop tunes which will not age that well.
All the shade thrown at Madonna and Rihanna and then this wack blog asks if a mediocre song from a year old flop album without a successful promo campaign or tour will go to number 1? Get out of Beyonce’s ass and face the facts. 4 sucked and unlike Madge it had nothing to do with ageist radio
I REALLY want it to…But Bey is doing NOTHING to promote it. At ALL. And it actually kind of makes me mad, because i’m a Bey fan and i want her to succeed and have a hit from this album, but she just doesn’t seem to care about this album or its songs anymore. She’s just releasing singles left and right with zero promotion whatsoever. And it’s really sad because in my opinion, 4 is an AMAZING album, maybe her best, and i think it could’ve done a lot better if she had worked harder on the promotion.
@SETH – Shut it and get out!!!
@Kat BEY SELLS MORE MILLION TIMES BY HAVING A BEAUTIFUL WALK IN THE PARK WITH BLUE THAN YOUR PATHETIC FREAKISH KAT DELUNA
@SETH YOUR DUMBER THAN THE THE DUMBEST KID IN CLASS,SHUT UP AND SUCK YOUR C***
NO MATTER WHAT ANGLE YOU SEE IT,BEYONCE SELLS MORE BY HAVING 5 1s and 4/4 no1 album than RIHANNA OK H***!?
@ABSOLVED we should support our queen no matter what.End Of Time is a favorite from the album so it has a shot to be no.1
BEYHIVES
BUY END OF TIME ON US ON APRIL 24
We’ll see if she scans a milli with another sloppy era …mocking Kat deluna wont change theh fact that she is busy promoting Jay’s ventures and kid 😉

it must be number 1 hit please
IM REALLY REALLY REALLY REALLY BEGGING FOR THIS TO GO ON #1 BEYHIVE WE CAN DO IT NO POINT TO CALL US BEYFAME OR THE HIVE IF WE DONT SUPPORT HER
@BEYHIVE & INLOVEWITHBEY I agree it’s way past time for the fans to push a single from 4 up the charts. Planning to purchase the single on 4/24 is cool but I think additional dates should be planned after airplay picks up, like on the first televised promo performance to maximize sales.
@kat
FACE IT YOUR LIFE AND IDOL IS HOPELESS,
BEYHIVE
I BOUGHT END OF TIME ON ITUNES US :))
@kat REBECCA BLACK HAS A BETTER CAREER THAN YOUR IRRELEVANT C***!!
Some of y’all should seriously get off Matthew’s d*ck and let Beyoncé learn from her mistakes. The “4” era was a transition. She flopped. Now let’s see if she can pass through all this mess and come back stronger than ever. Nobody knows what’s going on in Beyonce’s personal life, so stop making up sh*t.
Oh and about “End Of Time” reaching #1, with a huge support from the radio stations and smart promo, it would. But I’m pretty sure it won’t. All I’m expecting for the end of this era is a high budget video for EOT, some performances at some big events, a few interviews and a world tour.
I think Beyoncé did what she wanted to do. Even though this era wasn’t as successful as her others, I still want her to end up it with proper promo.
FLOOOOP! 😀

Tell em,I am unstoppable 😆
lol at rebecca’s career being bigger than Bey’s lmao. ok booboo
VISUALLY AND AUDIOLY IMPAIRED H**
It should’ve been the 1st Single to be released. Coupled with a video that was Hard as fucc and proper promotion, this song could have geared ‘4’ into a different direction
@NIC I swear we have the same brain. Just buy it to support our girl!
I bought the 4:the remix…. Love it 🙂
Anything can o #1 these days, and it’s Beyoncé f****** Knowles, if she promotes she will get that mega hit, and End Of Time I’d 150% percent #1 material. No one can decide or predict if she’s gonna promote but the fact that the song is already top 40 in several countries on iTunes and official charts proves that the song will be a hit of she performs and promotes it. Give it a Run The World type of video and two live performance and watch it go number one for 4 weeks+. The song is everybody’s favourite off ‘4’, and it’s Beyoncé every song is a hot even if it doesn’t go top ten, he’ll the woman has sold nearly 3 million copies of ‘4’ WW without a #1, not a even a top 10.
LOL THE HATERS ARE PRESSED,BEY SHADES THEM WITHOUT TRYING AND DOES EVERYTHING WITH CLASS!
BEYONCE IF YOU WANT, you can make ‘End of Time’ A number one¡¡WE NEED YOU BEYONCE
