Those who have already grown weary of news on Beyonce‘s fifth album should prepare themselves for yet another headache. For, in news that surfaced just moment’s ago, the singer’s self-titled effort has cemented itself as her biggest first week seller with sales set to exceed 600,000.
Yes, the aforementioned was already projected, but industry insiders have already confirmed that 550,000 of those digital items have already been sold. A feat that sees her top the first week sales of her 2006 effort ‘BDay’ (which debuted to the tune of 541,000 units sold in the first week).
As if that’s not enough, the movement has assured the songstress her fifth consecutive reign atop Billboard 200 – a first for any female singer to see her first five albums debut at number #1.
Read about it below:
“Beyonce’s surprise self-titled album is all but guaranteed a No. 1 debut on the Billboard 200 chart this week. Industry sources suggest its sales have grown to over 550,000 in the U.S. through Saturday (14) night. The album may sell 600,000 by the end of the tracking week on Sunday, Dec. 15.
“Beyonce’s” expected debut at No. 1 on the Billboard 200 chart, along with its official Nielsen SoundScan sales figure (through the end of the tracking week on Dec. 15), will be revealed mid-week.
“Beyonce,” which is exclusively available through the iTunes Store until Dec. 20, sold 430,000 through Friday night, and then another 120,000 or so on Saturday.”
*****
The impact of the digital sales alone imply the singer’s reign atop the charts will not be short lived. Once physical copies hit shelves, Bey stands to extend her chart championship well into the new year.

There’s Beyonce and there’s everybody else, She’s music.
good for her. I still like haunted but not into drunk in love much anymore. Now i’m into XO
in before the wasps attack, b*** yessss queeeen! work!
Killing it and on her own terms. So proud of her and the amazing pour out of support from other fan bases to the media to her own fans. It’s just so nice to see her getting the praise she deserves and her body of work is matching up with the hype which is to me the most impressive part of it all. Who else is pulling these #’s in a 3 day selling period? GET it girl!
Good for her.
I’m not a stan of Beyonce, but I do love her ambition. It’s sad that all of the “haters” would go for her knowing that she owns the throne. Let’s get real ladies… your faves can’t. My fave can’t. It’s okay because each of our fave offers something special to the industry. Except Rihanna… sorry, but she really couldn’t sing out of a wet paper bag. It’s embarrassing and I am embarrassed for her.
However, I must give credit to Slayonce. Snatchin’ weaves off so fast that the gorilla glue is flying off.
Good to see a woman stay classy AND sell numbers. Too many girls have to show their p**** to even get sales. Sad : (
Wait, I thought she was gonna flop. I thought she needed Matthew cuz her promotion was a mess. There is no one Beyonce’s level that could achieve half of what she has accomplished. To all the hater who dislike her and hate on her for no reason, slap yourselves with 17 grammys
why is beyonce #5 in the UK and #10 in scotland?
This just proves that Beyonce can still keep up! To all those haters… Numbers don’t lie check the score board! Beyonce did that!! And Drunk Love and XO are the first singles…. and they will SLLLAAAAAYYYY!!! Beyonce is by far the female artist of the year… Male = JT… WHAT A COMEBACK!! GO BEYONCE!!!
After just three days. It shouldn’t even be called first WEEK sales because it hasn’t even been a week.
I <3 Beyonce. PLEASE RETURN TO THE ATL!
Because they are a day early! She only has two days there… You tried!!! Beyonce still slaaayyyeeddd!!!
Only Beyoncè can do this, she sets the example for others to follow. #Beyoncè is her best work yet. Can’t wait to see the songs live!!!! Haters can say what they want she’s number 1!!!
@MC Because they are a day ahead! She only had two days there! Nice try though! Word is still spreading too! Beyonce was number one in all of the countries that itunes is available in!! She is Sllllllaaaaaaying!!
Just rename the album ‘SLAYonce: The Visual Experience’ already.
No shade… but I really do want to know what Rihanna thinks! I mean a lot of her stans are buying the album and loving it… AND I THINK NICKI NEEDS TO BE ONE PARTITION THE REMIX OKAAAAYYY!!!
I was delighted when tropico arrived and basked in the real form of artpop and mainly because us lana fans got a visual for Gods & Monsters but then bey came and owned the year by dropping, tbh I still can’t wrap my head around that beyonce’s 5th studio album is in my presence as we speak, as a hive member I was very scared that she would ‘flop’ commercially this time round, but I stayed stanning for the queen through thick and thin and guess what? she slayeeeeed this opening week numbers are giving me life, bey remains the queen in relevance and sales, what will you say now to all those who dragged her on this site, step forward and formally apologize to the queen and saviour. P.s fav songs are HAUNTED, MINE, XO, YONCE FLAWLESS AND JEALOUS
@MC because they only base it on two days worth of sales due to their time difference

Waiiiitttttt……remember “4lop” -remember “she’s a has been”- remember “she’s old”-remember “she needs Matthew” – remember “she’s washed-up, her time is done”
What happened to all of THAT!? LMAO! The crickets are astounding.
Yes Bey!!!!!!!
I do not LIKE her…but I RESPECT her. I am in awe at the whole rollout of this album and I am very happy for her!
My body can’t function anymore#Slayed to the core..Only King Bey.
good for her but i’m still not understanding that when it sold more than the albums currently on the chart. and I didnt try anything I asked a question. I LIKE THE ALBUM! its her best in years
@MC what were the other albums sales?
I’m still searching for my wig.
i guess the figures left everyone speechless. all hail queen b!
@MC 68k in the UK for two days in very good. She outsold Katy, Gaga, Drake first week sales. One Direction and three other acts had an advantage over her with the digital sales and store bought disk. She will top the chart the following week no doubt. Remember most of her album sales come from in-stores, just imagine when she releases those next week.
ANY F****** QUESTIONS??
Oop the regular haters are ghost. Not so quick to rush to this post. I wonder why?
Congratulations Beyonce, Im very proud of you. This album deserves it. You have proved your artistry and management skills with this when people were doubting you most. She goes through so much hate and comes out fighting. I love this woman.
Beyonce’s new nickname should be The Silent Killer.
The album is trash though. She will never make timeless music like Whitney Houston Monica brandy or Toni braxton ..I like real r&b not junk!!! Shes just selling off her name the material is trash and her fans will buy anything
And that is the nature of the industry, there are those who’ve branded enough to be able to do this, some artists do require help though.
There are some artists who not only need help but Jesus to buy a few copies too. I mean if you need the help of a knife to sell a few albums and still not crack a platinum plaque, just how much surgery do you need.
Some artists cannot even get a trending topic when they announce an album and get outsold by the flavor of the months mega-hit.
All I am saying is it is expected that some artists will do well, but I feel some artists can sense a flop when it’s coming, they just know. There’s a reason some bars are receiving a lot of business in certain NY districts.
The album is trash though. She will never make timeless music like Whitney Houston Monica brandy or Toni braxton ..I like real r&b not junk!!! Shes just selling off her name the material is trash and her fans will buy anything. Trash!!!!!
U sound dumb beyonce sounds like a kid being strangled
F****** brilliant album. Well done.
The album actually tells a story of love, s**, struggle and family which I adore. Its been on repeat.
Beyonce cheated billboard by dropping this without telling people she was afraid to drop because of her competition. She waited untill they flopped to drop how sneaky
Didn’t Gaga drop a song no one knew about only to FLOP??
Plus those other Destiny’s Child girls drop albums no one knows about all the time, or even cares about TBH.
It’s all about building a brand and hype I guess. It was very sneaky that this was dropped after everybody dropped, but it’s still a boss move, I’ll admit that.
She took a risk and it paid off. Someone who is so ‘scared’ would not take that kind of risk. And if anyone wants to deny Beyonce of her impact on pop culture for the past decade, (almost two) this is a smack in the face.
well I as a navy member must admit beyonce slayed everyones my fave as her 13th#1 hit but that b**** beyonce just came out of nowhere and slay the f*** out of everyone i officially present my apology to the beyhive i mean all those endorsments a 100+millions tour and now 550k first week sale beyonce is many things but washed up or a flop but let this fight be fair and dragged the other lessor such as the Z quad or the monster
@Lovebird-but people could have ignored the album. The fact is, people didn’t. People were excited for Beyoncé’s return which is why she is having commercial & CRITICAL success.
There is nothing sneaky about what she did. She took a big risk. It paid off. People who are afraid to release albums DO NOT do what Beyoncé did.
& as a Gaga fan, everybody knew when it was going to drop. There was no surprise.
Look, give Bey her props & let it go.
🙂 She lets the RECORDS break themselves
@Tee lmao excuses and stop because your stannin for keri flopson. We dragged your fave too many times up and down twitter. WE DISINTEGRATED THAT FLOP!!!!
I am giving Beyonce her props, it was a boss move and it paid off.
The other Destiny’s child girls drop albums no one knows about all the time and still no one buys, and so for Beyonce to do it shows what a successful brand Beyocne is.
the thing is that the album is actually really good it one of those rare occasion when the hype actually worth it I think that why it keep selling like crazy since thurdsday night beyonce did thing i would have never imagine coming from her GHOST,HAUNTED,F****** PARTITION, MOTHERFUCKING FLAWLESS,… i whish my fave would stop her 15 years old s*** i mean i love me some katy perry but damn enough with that childishness already Beyonce is changing the game while you releasing the same childish s*** over and over and don’t even get me started on those boring ass performance of yours u betta up ur game katy u were supposed to rhis year queen
I mean she could have spent $25 million dollars on promo, and $3 million on an ArtRave party in NY broadcasted to millions or announced it at some documentary movie no one remembers but she just dropped and outsold many favs, that is a boss move.
It is just funny that Gaga spent all that money and everyone including Miley Cyrus have outsold her. I don’t even think Artpop has been sold at full price since release.
No. Nicki Minaj doesn’t do anything for female rappers. She wants to be by herself, then let her. She coulda gave Angel Haza, Brianna Perry, Iggy, Azealia and other underground female rappers a feature but she decided to frame the world around herself. Beyonce doesn’t need her. Beyonce has done more for female rappers (Iggy opening for her tour) than Nicki Minaj.
And the biggest kiii of all is that Beyoncé went #1 in Barbados. #TheShade
I never knew it was an obligation for Nicki to help out the competition.
Did any of those b****** pay for Nicki’s studio time at the time she (Nicki) was paying out of pocket?
Did any of them come to see Nicki when she was going every night to the studio after work?
Did any of them help her get a record deal and get recognized in a male dominated genre?
Nicki doesn’t owe them anything.
People were so quick to judge her after that underperforming era that everyone has. Oh shes over, her careers a mess without Mathew. Ironic since shes made one of the smartest decisions in her career without him.
Gaga must feel like a damn fool though knowing she spent the most money and performed the worst.
Not only is her album the worst in terms of content, but everything has just been disturbingly bad about the Artpop era which everyone has forgotten by now.
We seriously need to consider putting her on s****** watch.
Nicki Minaj can do whatever she wants but don’t expect everybody to wanna feature her on a record either.
miley stan here officially apoligizing for ever saying beyonce was a has been don’t drag miley she always stan for her and yeah once the surprise effect past u realize that this album is actually amazing good job bey good thing miley hair r already short anyway
@Lovebird, the fact of the matter is Gaga never really had a dedicated fan base. It was full of people from the GP (that’s not a fan base, only casual listeners), people who are obsessed with novelty (though there was NOTHING new about Gaga) & the bandwagon.
ARTPOP flopped. So what, big deal? They ALL flop sometimes (poor Britney Jean). I will continue to support Gaga b/c I’m not interested in sales. I’m only interested in music that speaks to me.
So, will Gaga continue to be your whipping girl since you can’t use Bey anymore? You’ve been completely negative towards Bey forever. Now you wanna change your tune?
HA!
I will only support Gaga when she GOES BACK TO THE MUSIC. The gimmicks will make her everybody’s whipping girl.
Plus I like Beyonce’s album, that does not mean I like Beyonce.
I know she didn’t write any of the songs on the song even though her name is on the credits.
I know she had to take her clothes off to sell this album despite the excuses her stans will make for her.
But the album is still amazing.
Then it’s going to flop and will not do any good on the radio.
Plus I only like two songs off of Artpop if it’s any conselation, Donatella and Artpop are the only things I can stomach, but that is probably because I love to produce electronic music.
Anyway the world won’t be mad at Gaga forever. I guess we’ve already forgotten that some artists announced albums, are they that forgettable?
She has yet to release physical copies. That should maintain the sales because I can’t wait to buy my physical copy.
@RihRox just so you know, radio singles is just another marketing tool that she CLEARLY doesn’t need. Radio is suppose to support and bring awareness to an album. I’d say based on her sales, she doesn’t need a radio single and is just doing her fans yet another service. I know you stan for Rihanna and think I single is just meant to be #1, but if no ones buying your album (like your fav) what’s the point?? lol
@ENOUGH ONIKA
I am curious about your opinion, do you think Chris Brown will do these numbers next year?
I personally think he’ll have the biggest flop next year.
I mean his album has been pushed back to next year and everyone has forgotten he even has music out. He cannot even get a #1 single let alone a Gold Certification, do you think he can pull it off?
@Lovebird
Ya know, I hardly ever….well actually I never take what u have to say into consideration haha! But for once, I actually value your opinion. Its cool to see you giving credit where its due. You don’t have to like Beyoncé at all, but you damn sure have to respect the womans hussle as of lately. #RESPECT BEY’S GANGSTA
Oh laaawwddd Bey’s made history yall!!!!! LOL. I told you that this was going to be one of, if not her best selling album to date. And its her BEST commercially, artistically, and critically. I wouldnt be surprised if this album pushed 1 mill in its first week tbh. #BOSS MOVE
Beyonce is bigger than a single. Beyonce has created a movement, CBS Radio VP of urban programming Reggie Rouse told Billboard. She just kills it. She is the standard. Beyonce made every radio station, blog, TV station react to what she did. #LIVING LEGEND
What happened on Friday the 13th was a collective musical event only MJ, at the height of his. considerable powers, could have pulled off. #IMMORTAL
Oh and she’s also upped The Slayage to topping #1 n 112 Countries around the World. Every b**** n the game should bey bowing down @ this point. I knew once THE QUEEN dropped her album. People could tell their was only One QUEEN! #WATCH THE THRONE
she’s music without playing any instruments, without produce her songs, without being alone on credits… She’s music industry.
congrats to Beyonce, she is def slaying everyone
on a diff note, i think there has been more than enough Beyonce posts Sam, most of them are about the same thing -> how much she is selling. i dont think we need constant updates on how e album is selling, just tell us when the figures come in. no need to constantly remind us that Bey is slaying, everyone knows that already
B**** u sound preeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeessed as hell bwahahahahahahahahahahahahaha
I see the usual haters faded away…
I saw them trying to hate on Rosie y/day.
Dear Rosie, the Hive loves you , I know you a Beyonce fan
^^^^^^
exactly.there’s no need of rubbing anything in ,we know it.Beyonce is slaying for the Gods.No need to post about it every minute.
And the slayage continues lol. Think at this point, people should stop looking for their wigs lol.
Who needs a hype single when you are Slayonce Knowles Carter? Lol
Next year will be a great year for music..
Why you all bringing ri name in this post rihanna is 25 beyonce is 7 years older I see that stinking p**** wolf talking s*** about ri complement b without putting other popstars down f*** u haters on here
Her failures will come too no one stays on top gaga saw whats it like britney michael Jackson too but bey will also lets hope she does not jump off a bridge
I really love u, u are the kind of ppl the world needs , doing an apology is not easy i never Dislike Rihanna and theres songs that i love and im a Bey fan and u are truly a good person n.n
Love the album. Not understanding why tgj keeps posting the same updates. Overkill at its best. NO OTHER MUSIC BLOG HAS MULTIPLE POST ON BEYONCÉ. This is how regular people get tired of her. We love her but it becomes team too much when her stans STAN too hard. Get off her d*** damn.
620K in 3 days is GREAT; juicy meaty sales and really quick. In the UK she done 68 in 3 days. Rita WHORA done 40 in a week. She should scan 1 million WW in a week or so. It is now a platinum album, globally number1 all in every country that has itunes.
Now, let really get into it. 420 on the first day but 120 the next day….there has already been a drop in sales. Beyonce does high numbers and is frontloaded BECAUSE OF HER HIGH END PROMO – SHE CANNOT SURVIVE WITHOUT PROMO. She did have PROMO, if not why would the B**, MSNBC, Bloomberg be talking about her alleged game changing marketing move? Dont they teach u marketing in the hood? WHAT SHE DONE IS MARKETING.Marketing is about attacking the consumers attention and wallet’s. She was given $50 for do this, even Emimem would not be allowed to make 17 videos all over the world. Then she had tOUR, Superbowl, Obama, TWO docu movies GQ, VOGUE ( kinda sad that IT IS RIH that has been asked BACK to shoot another vogue cover ) Then toying with dates, only to attack, when the consumer least expects. IF GAGA had dropped 17 visual LP out the blue, but coming off a superbowl, GAGA WOULD OF DONE 1 MILL IN AWEEK.
Everyone is dissing the other pop girls, but they ALL SOLD WITHOUT GIMMICKY MARKETING, britney refuses to promote or invest in her career; she is done, emotionally. I feel sorry for mariah and jlo, cos they were4 forced to cancel their albums.
And bey waited for RIH, KATY AND GAGA to be off the charts when she dropped. If she had gone head to head, on normal sales day of tuesday, with Rih or Katy, she would have been beaten. WILL THIS ALBUM SELL PAST 3 MONTHS……THAT IS THE REAL QUESTION
Rih has not tweeted or IG in a while. BUT! WE KNOW SHE IS PLOTTING THE BLOODBATH. SHE IS IS WORKING ON HER VOGUE SHOOT AND WE ALL KNOW SHE WILL BLOW BEYONCE OUT THE GAME.
e,” which is exclusively available through the iTunes Store until Dec. 20, sold 430,000 through Friday night, and then another 120,000 or so on Saturday.”
there has already been a drop. Taylor would not have such a big drop, so early on. HmmmmmmmIt will be interesting to see how this LP survives in the next 3 month or so. When Rih, GAGA, ADELE AND SHAKIRA COME BACK.
if you like ” real “-“r&b” in the likes of the artists you mentioned then perhaps you get off thatgrapejuice? and go to the BET gospel section
The reason why he keeps bringing Rih into the post, is he scared that Rih’s next move will DEAD AND BURY BEYONCE, WHO has given us all the videos and has no POP smash on this LP. She only has 3 good songs on this LP. Flawless, Blow and Drunk in love.
Rih had these amazing Hits on her last LP:
Phresh out runway – that would of slayed if she dropped that
Stay
Love with ouu / mother mary
Diamonds – A song bigger than any beyonce song; it is still charting
Jump
Pour it up
What now
No love allowed
Basically, everyone is talking about beyonce savvy marketing plan, but no one is talking about the songs, cos the songs are wack for a woman of 35 who came BEFORE RIH. Even on TTT RIH HAS BETTER SONGS:
WFL – A SONG BEYONCE WILL NEVER TOP; that song launched Calvin H career
Sam know that RIH MAKES BETTER SONGS, PBUT MAKES HITS AND HE IS SCARED cos next year, she is coming. Sam knows RIH HAS BEEN SHOOT FOR VOGUE, SO HE KNOWS THEY DEF JAM ARE PLANNING SOMETHING BIG . HE IS WORRIED THAT BEYONCE SAVVY MARKETING HYPE WILL DIE AND BE OVERSHADOWED BY RIH and her top notch POP SMASH.
Your LATE Sam,billboard released this earlier today
Beyoncé is SLAYING YOU.Tonight I’m gonna slay 4 you! Tonight I’m gonna sell 3x what you sold in 3days. Yes!
But Sam can we pause on the posts? I won’t lie I’m checking every so often for updates but let’s wait until something new happens.
Btw the album is HOTT! her best work…PERIOD! the thing about Beyoncé she improves every album. The growth between DIL – Beyoncé is what’s eamazing.
I can’t wait! XO is going to smash btw! Her next #1 easy
There is this new Hive member I like —> Drea *pretty hurts*
I might this LP cos I have a flight that is over 10 hours and this will keep occupied. XO is the only pop jam on the LP, the LP is not a as great as DIL, IAMSF but better than the rest. I must say, it was a good idea to a visual LP and drop on friday and WELL DOWN for using hot newcomer, BLOW, copying Rih and using a producer / artist who is UNKNOWN ( mikkye ekko and clavin harris )
HER AND RIH ARE THE ONLY BLACK GIRLS DOING IT. It is gonna take a new black woman, the current crop of blacks, dont have the ideas, looks, glamour, promo budget and visual to slay. What a shame. Cannot wait for rih,hopes she works with Pharell and Timb, the best black PRODUCERS IN HISTORY ( ALONG WITH QUIncy )
I copped the album; I like it. Not better than any Rih album from 2007, but good still. WHEN RIH COMES AND SHUTS DA GAME, IT WILL SLAYAGE.
Well done King B, she’s making history by becoming the first female artist to have 5 #1 albums straight. So Proud! Bey has joined Queen Janet (2001) & Madonna(2012) by becoming only the third artist to have the 5 albums back to back! 🙂
@onika then why is she going to release 2 singles? This album will flop once the hype and the smoke clears up. In the long run it will repeat 4lop. The album that nobody is buying and she’s still touring for is 4lop. Unapologetic has outsold that thing and so did TALK THAT TALK.
People please pray for Ri is getting bigger than Bey…….KING B didn’t promote hun. Anyway i know u hate how “BEYONCE” has shifted more copies n a couple of days than UnaFlop, Rated Flop and all her other albums took 2 to 6months to sell. I can’t….i just can’t @THE SLAYAGE! You said it was over hun. What happen?????????? No words for u anymore. Everything u say from now on. Will bey seen as CERTIFIED INVALID. #THANKS 4 PLAYING
Sam,
Did u think Rih has packed her things and moved back to B’dos? LOL LOL SHE GOING HARD AT HER VOGUE PHOTOSHOOT. I copped this BEY album and though I like it, RIH HAS NOTHING TO WORRY ABOUT: SHE CAN top this LP easily, rih is a natural bad b**** BUT……SHE CAN MAKE POP AND EDM SMASH. Flawless is banger, the lyrics and Beat goes hard. She did that on flawless. RIH CAN TOP THIS UNA IS A BETTER ALBUM, BE THANKFUL, RIH DOES NOT PROMOTE, IS SLOPPY WITH ERA’S AND DOES YEARLY AND BIZARRE song choices.
DEF JAM ARE LOOKING AT BEYONCE, AND HEARING TEH COMPLAINTS OF HOW TTT AND UNA WENT. WACTH AND SEE.
I WOULD LOVE TO SEE RIH WORK WITH BOOTS, TIMB AND PHARELLL
Oh i see the shoe is on the other foot. The lessors stans has been saying THE QUEEN was scared to drop but now that the big picture has evolved. We actually see THE QUEEN was the one scaring their fav from dropping her album bwhahahhahahahahahahaha #MAYBE & FLOP
It takes rihanna 5 months to sell 550k loool only beyonce can do that ishhhh Navy keep crying we talk albums and big tours not single and hype I know when you were little girls
You dreamt of being in my world
Don’t forget it, don’t forget it
Respect that, bow down b******
I took some time to live my life
But don’t think I’m just his little wife
Don’t get it twisted, get it twisted
This my s***, bow down b****** the only debuted at #5 in the UK after Friday sales only s*** 68k oh BEYONCE
Bow down b******, bow bow down b******
Bow down b******, bow bow down b******
H-town vicious , h-h-town vicious
I’m so crown, bow bow down b******
I can’t with these basic b****** saying that if beyonce released it the traditional way,no one would care. Answer me this: If anyone else had dropped a surprise album,would anyone care? Would it have the same effect? Thought so.
Now playing:Mine
Awww,Sybil is back. And he’s super pressed! He probably heard about the two singles being released this week.
Who is your fave?
Yessss Mother isn’t playing with the KiDs. Beyhive there really isn’t a need to address the haters, Beyonce has already SLAP them all around the world. This is a very good album. It’s like my fav keep changing. Right now I’m on Jealous, Rocket, and Drunk on love. Then I go from Haunted, Blow , Flawless. Then No Angel, PARTITION(b**** why you slay us like this), and MINE. BEYONCE MOTHER YOU DID THE DAMN THING WITH BEYONCE’. IT’S ALL YOU BEYONCE'(The real you).
I’m so proud of Beyonce’ she keep proving the haters wrong. Black girls rock. Beyhive no need to shade Rihanna cause she is doing her thing too.
Beyonce and Rihanna are really the only Black girls that has the world in their hands.
Congrats and impressive ! i hope that Rihanna does these numbers when shes 16 years into her career ! Seeing how big she is at the moment after only 7 years without the support of a girl group, in a next 8 years She’ll just be Epic.
CALL ME WHEN SHE SELLS 1.2m in her first week. Looks like I will wait till the second coming…
LOL I just can´t at @trollbird wanting to stan for Beyonce now!!!! LMAO I swear these people are the worst. If I were a Beyonce fan I wouldn´t want them stanning for Beyonce, what for? Only to start hating again the moment she doesn´t sell this big? People who stan for charts are the saddest. Now he´s using Beyonce to downplay everybody else lol How about using Beyonce to downplay your f****** real faves??? lol You know Rihanna, Justin Beiber and Katy Perry? Leave talented people alone and move on.
Now, about this album, can anybody tell me something about the MUSIC? I still have not listened to it. We are all so impressed by the clever move and the sales that I don´t see anybody really talking about the music. Is it good? Is there a change? Is it better than “4”? Imo “4” was her best album to date, so even if this new one will end doing better, I find it hard to believe it is better musically. Can anybody tell me?
^^
Yesss at john clocking @rosie and @trollbird’s bandwagon tea.
Beyonce did it, Gaga did it and obviously all the true greats did it. When will Katy Perry, Rihanna, Milye Cyrus and the rest do it? Or at least be taken seriously? I mean, there´s no possible comparison, hit singles easy to cook can only do so much.
Learn the lesson this time around.
Anyways, this t********* fan blog can miss me. I won’t be giving sam anymore hits until next year, maybe by then tgj will be back to normal.
I will go to NB, at least its still business as usual there, and the bloggers there have forgotton t*********.
I’m also happy because I can now have a proper intelligent conversation with intelligent people over at NB, something that you can’t get here. Please don’t follow me, y’all can stay here and worship the thief till your fingers bleed. bye.
Johnvidal why don’t you stop asking everyone else and check the music out yourself? Form your own opinion babe.
After 17 years would it matter?
@Truth
R***** got multiple post of her so does other websites
The critics and G
@Johnvidal The critics and GP are loving the music. Just listen to it.
Cake is upset and MAD……If gaga can show love and respect, why can’t you?…..Don’t come back stay on NB. You’re not wanted here anyway. All you do is spew hate.
I mean everybody on this site knows Sam loves Beyonce’. Why wouldn’t he show love for his fav?
@hotstuf stfup, WHERE WIL RIHANNA BE WITHOUT JAY Z? Rihanna can NOT sing live and her singing vioce is garbage. RIHANNA IS WHERE RIHANNA IS TODAY THANKS TO OTHER, SHE NEVER WROTE ONE OF HER SONGS.BEYONCE WROTE MANY OF HER OWN SONG, SHE HAS NR1S THANKS TO HER OWN WRITING, CAN YOU SAY THE SAME ABOUT RIRI? Riri is a lucky girl, all her nr1 are not really hers.Rihanna has no talent, or do you call open your legs, fingers on your p**** a xfactor?
Not gonna participate in the stan war. Congrats B! 🙂 Moving on.
Hi Richie! 🙂 How are you?
I was on Beyoldce side but you b****** keep coming for my fav knowing if her ass released regular she would have sold less than Katy with her NASTY trashy ass. She is no better than Rihhoe these days showing all her ass and titties and ci said your welcome! Body Partition was cute you unoriginal h** f*** the hive
Taylor sold 1,459.000 in her first week worldwide.. without the need for 17 videos, some of them pornographic..
Also, Taylor didn’t release the album under 2 weeks before Christmas, when sales are at their highest.
When it comes to music, and music only.. Taylor has no need go down the pornographic route to sell her misic… It’s a shame that other artists do.
This s*** will be “4”gotten in a month or two once the hype dies down s***
RIHANNA IS A NO NO TALENT, EVERYTHING SHE HAS TODAY IS THANKS TO OTHERS INCL ALL HER NR1, SHE WILL NEVER BE RICHER THAN BEYONCE TAYLOR SWIFT etc etc. RIhanna voices is garbage. No she’s not a Beyonce, Mary J B, Celine Dion etc, Rihanna is garbage.
Remember Magna Carter Holy Grail? Neither do I like husband like thieving ass wife
SLUTyonce finger popping in one video and parading her daughter around in the next. What a nasty h**!!
impressive! and considering that not everyone is buying albums via itunes she will have high sales again once the physical copy is released. one thing that bothers me though are her ticket prices for her tour -.- it’s a lot more expensive than it was before
lol, the haters are seething big time and we’re loving it! yasssss at that QUEEN-LY KING-LY BEHAVIOUR!! Lol, Rihanna has stopped bragging about her accomplishments on instagram and throwing shade at Bey telling her to bow down, she’s now in her rightful place.
I must say though,she just scored her 13th number 1 hit and that’s commendable. she’s just been humbled 😀
H**, are you talking about your mom? How many man did you mother tucks before she had you and after. You clearly don’t know what a h** is, look at you mom .
@Johnvidal
We are all so impressed by the clever move and the sales that I don´t see anybody really talking about the music. Is it good? Is there a change? Is it better than “4″? Imo “4″ was her best album to date …
______________________________
I don’t think Bey’s music is being overshadowed by the way the album was issued out, it’s just that the decision to do it that way was unique and so daring. That is just impressive!!! It could have all backfired. The music totally backs up any hype that’s surrounding the album NOW though.
As for if “Beyonce” is better than “4”. It’s honestly too close to call for me. Beyonce’s last 3 albums are so different from each other and it makes it hard to compare when the music is not exactly in the same lane. I do feel that Bey’s evolved as an artist and everything as a whole with this project is so on point (musically + visually) that it’s superior that way to any other Bey album. Personally speaking “Beyonce”,”4″ and “BDay” are the best Bey albums imo.
RIHANNA VOICE IS A DYING CAT, AWFUL.
B**** my mother aint putting jail bars between her ass cheeks I bet those bars smelled like straight s***. Beyoldce is a tramp and bad example for her daughter. I would hate to have a s*** for a mom and Gay Z is ugly with big crusty m***** lips
You know yourself if Taylor had dropped her album secretly,nobody except her fans would give a f***. And you shouldn’t be talking when Taylor uses men to come up with material
@Hivy Morning Babe…..I’m like you I’m not addressing the haters….Like Why? Beyonce’ has SLAYYYYYYYED the whole game. No need to address the haters let them seethe.
I’m at work hun, bumping Rocket chile.lol
@hotstuff no doubt iconna will pull off the numbers some of these girls can only dream of
Taylor >>> Beyoldce. Taylor sold out all her shows and Beyoldce album won’t outsell Taylor’s last 3 kii s***
You are talking about world-wide, BEYONCE SOLD IN US ALONE MORE THAN 550,OOO AND SHE IS IN MORE THAN 111 countries nr 1. And what HAS Christmas to do with this? If people don’t like you or what they heard, they don’t give a f*** if it Christmas or not. You just can deal with the power that is beyonce. THE POWER THAT IS BEYONCE, TAYLOR DOESNT HAVE IS AND SHE WILL NEVER HAVE. And worldwide Beyonce already sold more then TAYLOR SWIFT, yes in only 4 days and not a week. YES BEYONCE IS KILLING EVERYBODY INCLUDE YOUR PRINCESS TAYLOR SWIFT.
I looked late last night and “BEYONCE” was #1 in 103 countries on iTunes…all across the board….I mean I have never seen this kind of domination before…I mean she is globally slaying everybody right now…She is definitely the Queen and anybody who says otherwise is nuts…I am not one of her stans…Quite frankly I find the Beyhive ridiculous a lot of the time but I have to give credit where it is due…
Beyhive don’t address the haters. Let them seethe.
Beyonce’ is the HBIC……. Rocket baby, Rocket baby
Johnvidal its her most artistic album to date. Your friend Dossome said he loved it if that means anything 🙂
F*** HER! C SQUAD ALL DAY EVERY F****** DAY WE ORIGINAL
She did it in 6 days and Beyonce did it in 3…I find Beyonce’s more impressive…No promotion just dropped it and it goes to #1 worldwide…Taylor does not compare to the Queen.
@Richie Have a nice day at work. Taylor stans are pressed I see. BEYONCE doesn’t have to suck twink d**** from tom d*** and harry to come up with new material. Bye H**
LOL@how Sybil/”rihanna is getting bigger and beyonce is decreasing” is sitting there trying to poorly rationalize the situation to keep herself from committing s******. Beyoncé damn near gave you a bleeding ulcer this weekend, didn’t she? Everything you ever believed in, hoped for and claimed at this blog was spectacularly defeated! 😆
Go ahead and wave that white flag because you lost! 😉
Anyways, I’m bumping to Mine a lot. The production on it is amazing and to add drake is killing it. And the video is very artistically done.
Took me the whole weekend to somewhat recover from the slayage, and now I am going back on my knee and I bow down to the Queen.
The Beyhive is so deserving of this. We ‘ve been waiting for so lonn, I even thought she was ill or something.
King B… you did that Beytchh! Thank you for being you, gurl! Much love.
Beyonce got her sales in 3 days and just off Itunes. And Taylor is the definition of local.
Hahaha, stop talking b*******. And TAYLOR swift fans are children and not grown ups. I’m a DJ when I try to put a TAYLOR song ON, peopleZ SCREAMING we are grown ups and not children. BEYONCE ALREADY OUTSOLD TAYLOR SWIFT. AND TAYLOR ALBUM WAS EVERYWHERE TO DOWNLOAD, BEYONCE ONLY ITUNE, JUST WAIT, WHEN IT IS EVERYWHERE, AMAZONE ETC. JUST DEAL WITH THE POWER THAT IS BEYONCE.. IN HOLLAND SHE ALREADY SOLD.MORE THAN 200,000 copy in 2 days, IN AUSTRALIA she already sold more than 300.000 in 2 days. BEYONCE IS POWER.
The irony is that Beyoncé did this in 3days and Friday will be Beyoncé’s entire week sales. So we will wait.
Dear Hive Hive members
I dont want to sound like the hater but I do want to teach you about humility.
I read some of you say “only bey can pull these numbers” but that is not true. The record was actually set last year in the usa by Taylor Swift (im not a swift fan that child can not sing lol) but she sold 1.2 million in her first week. Now I understand that Bey has not had a full week. Her numbers are very impressive, but this isnt even her biggest opening. Her biggest opening was DIL. Every album after that suffered declining opening numbers. This album boosted
@Hivy Thanks baby …I’m a CPA(real boring) for PWC got these old white men and women going crazy over Beyonce’. They are loving it.
No your mother did worst, he put many d**** between her ass. Honey, go and take that 111 pills that is waiting for you. Smh
@anti-garbage singing voices
If you can’t understand that artists sell more at Christmas time, then there’s no point in trying to reason with you. If Beyonce release this in January, her sales wouldn’t be anywhere near this..
Taylor’s red sold 1.2 million in the sates and has sold 4 million in the states and in total 6 million, so that makes 2 million outside of the USA!
Beyonce is killing Taylor.. Taylors album is 59 weeks old, and sold 20,000 last week in the states. lets see if next year Beyonce will be selling that.. because after Christmas her sales will nose dive..
@the truth no babe this is her biggest opening. DIL did over 300k. And yes only Bey coild pull these numbers in 3 days, No warning at midnight and itunes sales only. Call me when Taylor can do that.
No one cares about a vogue cover Sybil. the purpose of that stuff is to promote yourself Beyonce did it all without one. Just say congratulations
I do wish they would wait for the official numbers, though bc they adjusted JT’s sales upward and it turned out he only did 700k
“Industry insiders” need to be patient & stfu !
Oh and call me when Taylor can do this 16 years into her career also (if shes still around)
Ciara >
do I think she bought some of them herself?? in my opinion… yes….but if so even to be able to invest in yourself and create a momentum for your own blockbuster is still a boss move…
Yawwn^^^ you people always say the same thing when you can’t deny her slayage ‘she bought it’.
All legendary artist needs diamond albums. That is when I will go OFF and celebrate for beyonce. These opening numbers are cute but she needs her diamond certification. She NEEDS IT!
No your mother did worst, she put many d**** between her ass. Honey, go and take that 111 pills that is waiting for you. Really.
@Truth Chile go back to what ever hole you dragged yourself out of because Taylor fans are no different. They were acting all high and mighty this year.
You people have to remember she is slaying WW not just the US aswell.
@Truth Does Tina Turner have a diamond album? Do other legends have diamond albums? Chileeee I’m not even going to bother.
@truth the past 16 years have proved she doesn’t.
@Truth I think what most people are saying only Bey can do it without any promo. Taylor had Papa Johns….Beyonce had NOTHING……Just her name…
Aretha Franklin does not have a Diamond album, neither does Dianna Ross I guess they are not legends?
Beyonce’ has upset a lot of people.
Yep VEE, they clearly can’t deal with it.
Clearly R_R, lmao.
I wont fight with the hive because I paid my 15.99 for the album. Im just saying that from an artist like Beyonce (an artist who has almost everything) needs a diamond certification. She has the Grammys she has the tours but the only thing missing is that diamond album. Her “Thriller” selling album. Im very happy for beyonce but the hive still is being nasty and bashing others. No humility what so ever. Always so fast to attack. Im saying, me in my opinion, I wouldn’t be putting other’s down until my girl pulled a diamond certification. An album that keeps on selling. Thats all im saying. I love the album, its a great body of work.
About that Christmas s*** , Stop talking BS, . And yes she’s already KILLING TAYLOR, and worldwide beyonce already sold more TAYLOR SWIFT. She was done, I hear, she’s over I hear, if she was all that, what has had have Christmas to do with it. If your s*** is good people will buy it , if isn’t people will not buy it and Christmas has nothing to do with it, and people earns money every month or weeks. You just can deal with it. If beyonce already did beat TAYLOR, we will see how much more after 55 weeks,
-if
Tina Turner was never praised for her albums. As a matter of fact tina was not fully praised as a solo artist until the 80’s her story is more legendary more than her music. Diana Ross failed as a solo artist but she was still big because of the supremes and her movie rolls. Talk to your parents. Beyonce, is known for her music and performance on stage. In my opinion she has become bigger than those greats that came before her. So, back to my point, I would like to see beyonce grab that diamond certification then I will go OFF. Take that how yall want.
This is great news, I didn’t think she could top GAGA and PERRY, and CYRUS… in sales these days but I guess I was wrong… werk Bey… I am still loving the offering…
Check out “Dare” by new artist Marcel

@TRUTH.
The Hive isn’t “bashing” anyone who doesn’t deserve it. You trolls have spent the last 2-3 years being hateful little shrews, making all sorts of evil and incendiary remarks, bashing her down to her finger nails. And even now, a few of you are still trying it, despite how much she rebounded.
Payback is a b****, ain’t it?
Beyonce fans are very cocky, all I have to say is it’s not how you start but how you finish.
Albums have a way of starting strong and dropping off very quickly, just look at Gaga.
I don’t care what nobody says Beyonce cheated this time. So GaGa 250k and Beyonce 600k? Yea right. If she would have stuck to her usual format she would have done under 300k like Katy, miley GaGa.cheatyonce cheated.
The fact that people are waiting for Rihanna’s response on Twitter shows her impact..
I haven’t posted here in forever, but I specifically logged in today for the meltdowns & excuses. ‘Lo and behold the same trolls have the same rebuttals. Beyonce won, deal with it. Why am I seeing Ciara and Rihanna’s names plastered all over the post? One is irrelevant and one is in hiding lol. I’m so happy to be a Hive right now!!!
Aretha Franklin does not have a Diamond album, neither does Dianna Ross I guess they are not legends?
Yes but they have classic album. Beyonce had no diamond album and no classic album.
Maybe this one, but it’s too soon to know.
Tell that to all fanbases @Lovebird Rihanna and her #1’s? Katy Perry and her #1’s? Taylor and her sales? Britney and her past diamond certifications? Mariah and her gigantic sales? Lady gaga and her….? I don’t think we are any different from any fanbase. Every fanbase brags and get cocky.
@ANTI-GARBAGE SINGING VOICES
Taylor’s red has sold 2 million outside of the USA beyonce’s album hasn’t done that.. so this killing thing you keep on about, is making you look deluded.
Also like Toys, Dvds, and music.. Everything sells more just before Christmas. You think it’s a confidence that Beyonce released her album under 2 weeks before Christmas? She’s not silly… you watch after Christmas how much all artists sells will dip.
Taylor also didn’t need 17 music videos included.. some pornographic..
Anyway’s I’m out -Ciara voice-
@Lovebird “Floponce,she will flop like 4,she will do 100k first week,she knows she will flop,that’s why she is scared to release an album,she will never see a diamond album,she is a has been,she is done etc” These are some of the shade we had to endure for a whole three years. We have every right to be cocky
@lovebird . O please stop it. She’s nr1 in 111 countries. And she started only on iTunes, JUST imagine when she also start somewhere else, Amazon eBay, JUST imagine the Finnish, BOOM. And stop putting lady Gaga in your WRITING to make a point, it only make you sound weaker in making a point. Beyond is not lady Gaga, beyonce is on a different league.
honestly It will Be interesting to See 3rd week Sales, Because All The albums Start with Big Numbers First week But They Drop Off So Fast With No longevity at All.
nonetheless, Congrats to her and her fans, The album is Decent and The Videos are Amazing.
Good Day Y’all. 😀
Diana Ross is not a legend, she’s an overrated non singing, non dancing, non performing, no talent, overrated famous for being famous socialite.
@the Taylor swift fan beyonce’s album isn’t for little kids. If Taylor secretly released a visual album,nobody would care. Beyonce did something nobody in the game dared to do, that’s more impressive. Besides,Taylor is only relevant cause of Kanye
I’m tired of Taylor stans to be honest.
“Taylor also didn’t need 17 music videos included.. some pornographic.. ”
Girl do you even know what an Visual Album is? I don’t think so. It’s a visual album not a normal album. Her normal are like soundtracks at most. If you can’t take GROWN music go listen to “We are never getting back together” and all the childish crap. Let taylor keep on sucking twink d**** for lyrics and let beyonce od her things. Move on. Taylor had her time.
Death at people calling me a troll for wanting beyonce to have a diamond album. She deserves it. Sorry if you all think opening numbers are end all be all but I find albums that sell years after are true gems. This beyonce album deserves that kind of treatment. I like things to be HUGE. Thriller an album that still sells 30 something years after. Mariah Christmas album still HUGE 20 years later still #1. That Hive members is what I want for your girl. I see so much hate towards others. Calling it a sad sad sad day (sam) for other pop artist etc. That is bashing people. Humbled people smile and say thank you. The hive needs to understand humility.
Yall said it was selling 1 million first week a few days ago. LOL. She released a surprise album around the holiday time I must say that was a great marketing move to get those holiday sales. We’ll see how the numbers play out in the long run.
B_M
The hive aren’t exactly innocent, they’ve been attacking other artists left right and Centre.
Remember when they started attacking Keyshia Cole for having an opinion.
Just look at Gaga, she had the biggest promo budget, $3 million for Artrave party in NY and multiple discounts just to flop.
Gaga has TWO 80% second week drops, so don’t pick the winner at the start of a race.
I agree with @lovebird on Diana ross though. I don’t see why she is all of that and her solo career was a fail. I can say she is like another Marilyn Monroe.
Jealous?…Reap what you sow!
But @Lovebird we are not saying we are innocent and I can say that some of the hive overdoes it but lets not act like the hive does things out of the ordinary. We are just like any fanbase.
Diana Ross is not a legend, she’s an overrated non singing, non dancing, non performing, no talent, overrated famous for being famous socialite.
LOL bad faith.
I’m not american, i’m not of her generation but I know her and her song. Timeless song, icon fashion , classic album , high sales. Even if there is a lot of people in her back, that’s her voice, her style.
@Lovebird Keisha cole wasn’t attacked for having an opinion,she was attacked for not knowing how to keep her mouth shut and always sounding bitter.Remember what she said about Michelle at the Super Bowl? And the only reason we attacked different artists is constant shade from their stan bases following 4’s underperformance. The hive deserves to at least celebrate and be cocky. Being one of the most attacked and shaded fanbases this entire year,it’s kinda hard to be humble.
I never understood why the beyhive and navy hated each other so much. You’re right we are the only 2 fan bases that will SLAY any other…we should all be mean together…not fighting lol
And Taylor could also fall off, I mean she sold more than Pink and Rihanna but they had the bigger tours.
She might end up being the next Gaga who falls from selling over 1 million to 200K even with a $25 million promo budget and $3 million Artrave party in NY and multiple disounts. Gaga has moved from selling 11 million to 6 million to being outsold by Bangerz.
Kids grow up, just look at the number of half empty stadiums and arenas at One Directions tour. They had so many dates not sold out.
“Taylor also didn’t need 17 music videos included.. some pornographic..
Girl do you even know what an Visual Album is?
I don’t think so. It’s a visual album not a normal album
____________________________
You can doing visual album without show your ass…
AMEN @LOVEBIRD Taylor fans are more cocky than the hive to be honest. All of her twink stans.
And yes,there are a couple of hive members who will over celebrate and cross boundaries. But what can you do about it? Every Stan base has its crazy people
Zave
The jive started hating on Rihanna when rumors about Rihanna and Jay Z started passing around, oh and when Rihanna was getting those #1s during GGGB.
@lovebird, there you go again, why don’t you go and sleep with lady Gaga, smh. You can pick a winner at the start, this is music and not football. And Beyonce is clearly KILLING, and you you try to deal with it, but you clearly still can deal handle it, yep I saw your other post here and I’m not talking about only this topic. YOU HAVE DIFFERENT FACES, I WOULD NEVER TRUST SOMEONE LIKE YOU.
*hive
Diana Ross is an ICON. Successful sales or not. Dionne Warwick was like the biggest popstar of the 60’s but who still talks about her? Diana left a legacy and her 60-something year old self is still selling out shows.
@waterfalls If you don’t like don’t watch it…. -.- I mean its the same you guys said about PIU but as I said if you don’t like don’t watch it. Beyoncé is nor forcing you to watch it.
@BEYHIVE_MINAJ
“swift fan beyonce’s album isn’t for little kids. If Taylor secretly released a visual album,nobody would care”
love the use of the world secretly, like no one even knows she relased her album. It’s been all over the news, and non stop on here. she recorded a messaged for the x factor final in the uk, infront of 10 million fans… she’s doing a tour.. dont act like this is a secret ONLY beyonce fans will know.
Taylor doesn’t need an Visual art album to sell her music.. She’s only about the music, not making porno vids.. so the guys have something to perv over….. We all know shes a pretty girl..
@HIVY Grown up music… Her lead single from her last song was called who Run The World (Girls)
Is miley cryus grown up music, because she’s talking about s**? Pleaseeeeee
We weren’t pressed about good girl gone bad. We were happy that rih was finally taking off and finding her own identity after 2 consecutive attempts at trying to be beyonce. The Stan war started after the rumours circulating about jay z sleeping with rihanna
I find it amusing how Lovebird is calling the Hive cocky but him and the Navy does the same thing whenever Rih has a little accomplishment. She could be the #1 most typed artist on Microsoft Word and their asses will go off like it’s something huge. The Hive celebrates real slayage. Stay pressed!!! 😆
Correction.
@lovebird, there you go again, why don’t you go and sleep with lady Gaga, smh. You can pick a winner at the start, this is music and not football. And Beyonce is clearly KILLING, and you you try to deal with it, but you clearly still can NOT deal handle it, yep I saw your other post here and I’m not talking about only this topic. YOU HAVE DIFFERENT FACES, I WOULD NEVER TRUST SOMEONE LIKE YOU.
Oh,and also because a couple of Rihanna’s fans started saying that bey is done after Umbrella was a success
Lord help me cause I don’t want to clock taylor and her twink fans.
Diana Flop Ross is no icon. She relies on the Supremes because she knows her solo career is a huge failure.
ButNicki could do more tho, she always wants to talk about female mcs sticking together, then she pays the up and coming females mc’s dust. No one is asking for a hand out, I’m sure some of their labels would pay Nicki for her verse, but she wouldn’t do it cause she is scared that one of them will dim her light. Basically, Nicki is a monopoly in the rap world, u need s female mc u gotta call Nicki cause she’s the only one doing it.
The album was released secretly because nobody knew it was uploaded on iTunes until bey posted the link to her Instagram page. DUH. And beyonce stated that she wanted to release a visual album because she was inspired by thriller and also because she wanted to try something new. She has reached that point in her career where she can pull off something risky. And at least beyonce doesn’t have to sleep with any boy who is interested to come up with ideas for her projects.
I agree. But your answer to Taylor Swift’s fan is not available
you say (with arrogance) ” do you know what is an visual album ? ” like it was an obligation for beyonce to show her ass. But no, it’s artistic commitment.
But , personnally, I like this album.
@Anti
But Gaga wants to be talked about hence the gimmicks.
I mean she had a $25 million promo budget and multiple discounts only to perform the worst.
Her album hasn’t been sold at full price since release and she still cannot sell more copies than Bangerz.
@TAYLOR swift …… . And she TAYLOR had many boyfriends, didn’t she stay in hotel with Harry stiles, John Mayer? Taylor play a Angel in her music vids, but she’s clearly no Angel. She needs man to make songs, who are next or is next? Beyonce s*** in vids, but only one men for years. Taylor an Angel in vids, but many man’s (d****) in real life.
@BEYHIVE_MINAJ “She has reached that point in her career where she can pull off something risky”
How is this risky? If anything it’s way more safe, because the fans are going to get a cd, and 17 music videos… I’d be way more tempted to buy this.. then just a cd.. wouldn’t you?
And is that the best you come up with to diss Taylor.. come up with something new next time?
@Beyhive.
BOOM. EXACTLY.
Why is this Taylor Swift fan so pressed? Yea it was a f****** risk to drop an album with no pre promo or warning. It could have been a major success or major FLOP because according to some people ‘no one os checking for Beyonce anymore and she is done’ but she proved people are. No one of forced to buy that album.
I ain’t about to play with this site so I’m gonna say a couple of things and then I’m gonna bungee jump off a building. First things first. Big ups to Beyonce for releasing a complete package. What she stated in her HBO documentary was real. Secondly, big ups to Island Def Jam and other record labels for studying “The Beyonce Formula to Success”, perfecting it(so they thought), and then attempting to overshadow it by releasing yearly albums (some discounted) and quick singles. Without any of this, there would be no “BEYONCE'”. Last, I will be purchasing my Own physical copy of this album with the videos. My first Beyonce album! The reason being, in the past I felt that she excluded an audience; her male audience. Too many girl anthems(lol). I’m here for female empowerment, but..but she was killing my ears with “Run the World.” From top the bottom this album is flawless even with subtle female anthems. Anybody can listen to it and relate; just like Adele’s “21”. Kudos! And Beehive be as cocky as you WANT! #teamfuckyourfav
@Truth the diamond thing probably won’t occur I see 3mil US, though
Adele is a British artist (white) who capitalized off Amy’s death and many people hadn’t discovered her yet so it was a rarity .. Beyonce’s been known for years so her fanbase is solidified
its doing so well bc people must buy the album to hear the singles & see the videos.. But once piracy becomes wider spread & the vids are on youtube, the novelty will wear off
@Ashlee at the beginning of her career,nicki said that she was inspired by female emcees before her and they have paved the way for her and other aspiring rappers. But many saw her as a threat and kept taking shots at her. She wasn’t going to take that,and she clapped back. Lil Kim tried her,she kept trying nicki in all her interviews and taking shots at her,instead of giving her props. So nicki ended her career on Roman’s revenge. After lil Kim’s career tanked,people knew better than to take shots at nicki. She has achieved what past female emcees failed to achieve,and that made other female emcees see her as a threat. The hostility nicki received from female rappers at the beginning of her career is why she is winning on her own. If they had accepted her,all female emcees would have stuck together
And Beyonce stans have every right to be cocky because the amount of bashing we put up with through the the 4 era that was over, no one is checking bla bla she done clapped everyone back. If it was your favs, you would be cocky. Beyonce was being attacked by all fan bases and now all the Hive can do is laugh. And shes proved to me that her game is on point, I’m sure she has plan for the rest of this era to keep it up (there is even a part 2) she has proved to me she knows very much what she is doing.
She was over*
I wasn’t dissing Taylor,I was stating the truth. Would people be interested in her music if she didn’t talk about heartbreak all the time? And yes,it was a huge risk,especially after 4 underperformed. She dropped it 3 years after her worst selling album,with no promo,no per orders,and no lead single. You are actually trying to say that’s not a risk?
@Vee THANK YOU! These people know damn well if I wry their faves,they would be cocky too. Probably worse
Taylor Swift is f****** irreleavnt in my country she can keep her stats but will never be a legend like Beyonce.
*if it were their faves. Damn iPad
@Vee
Just like the Beyonce stans bashed Rihanna all through the GGGB and Rated R eras?
the music is really good. Even the “hood” -urban songs are the s***.
I dont know why it took me a few days to get into XO.. but that songs needs to be a single.
Im proud of my BEY…
SN: The way Lovebird goes in on Gaga…lmao. I really like Gaga, but that s*** is hilarious.
@beyfan XO is the lead single,
The Tickets went on sale today in the U.k, can anyone let me know what’s the price. I might across the pond to see mother.
@Lovebird we bash eachother, never denied that. But there is no point trying to play ‘The Hive is worse’ card now when you’ve proved you can be just as hateful. Its 2013. And like I said before, the Hive still has every right to be cocky, It doesn’t even habe anythinb to do with Rihanna, Beyonce just proved everyone wrong. Beyonce not only had the Navy coming after her, it felt like the entire f****** internet.
So Xo is going to be the lead single now@hivy
BEY-TUNES: Beyonce has broken iTunes’ one-week sales record in three days, moving more than 618k digital copies of her self-titled “visual album,” the explicit and clean versions of which continue to hold the #1 and #2 spots on the online store, respectively. Beyonce also broke the worldwide iTunes first-week record. It’s a huge end-of-year coup for Columbia chief Rob Stringer and his team, and for Sony Music ruler Doug Morris, who supported the release plan that the megastar and Stringer developed. For details about that plan, see the item below; stand by for further updates.
THE QUEEN!!
@vee it WAS the entire internet,and I hope they had the appetite cause they are eating all their words!
@Hivy the wining continues! And it won’t stop! “In my sevyn voice”
@Richie yes it is being released on all formats. Blow got scrapped. SO its XO and Drunk in Love.
Thank you to the few people who answered my question and talked about the MUSIC! Why the negativity when I ask others´ opinion about music? lol
Also why can´t @trollbird stop mentioning Lady Gaga in 50 comments per post????? LOL This is not about her. Move on! You don´t like talent. Go to Katy Perry´s posts. Your meltdowns are being epic. Must hurt knowing your faves never did something like this.
@bey hive and Richie Not to mention XO already ggot spins on Z100 and KIISS
LMAO…RIHANNA FANS REALLY ARE THE MOST DELUSIONAL FAN BASE. LMAO, IM NOT EVEN FOR THE STAN WARS, CAUSE I LOVE ME SOME RIHANNA. I STAN FOR THE QUEEN BEY, BUT I’VE BEEN TO TWO OR THREE RIHANNA CONCERTS AND ALTHOUGH THEY WERE LACKLUSTER TO SAY THE LEAST I STILL LIKE HER. I LIKE HER MUSIC, HER STYLE (SOMETIMES), HER UNIQUE VOICE, HER ATTITUDE CAUSE RI WILL READ A HATER REAL FAST, BUT ON HER BEST DAY SHE COULDNT HOLD A MATCH TO BEYONCE. YALL KIDDIE STANS ARE SO DELUSIONAL AND DISRESPECTFUL TO EVEN SAY SOME CRAZY BULL LIKE THAT. THAT’S LIKE TAMAR FANS SAYING SHE’S BETTER THAN TONI BECAUSE SHE HOT RIGHT NOW….NOTTTT! RIHANNA MAY BE A LOT OF THINGS BUT BETTER THAN BEYONCE SHE WILL NEVER BE, AND I BELIEVE RIHANNA KNOWS THAT ITS JUST THE DELUSIONAL FANS WHO DONT. JUST THINK ABOUT IT, BEYONCE HAS BEEN IN THE GAME 17 YEARS AND SHE STILL CONTINUES TO SLAY ALL THE NEW GIRLS NOT JUST RIRI. LOL AT U SAYING RI’S MUSIC IS BETTER….OBVIOUSLY THE GRAMMYS’DONT THINK SO. RIHANNAS POP CORN SINGLES ARE ALWAYS HOT WHEN THEY DROP, BUT I CAN ONLY THINK OF ONE SONG(DIAMONDS) IF ANY THAT PEOPLE WILL REMEMBER IN 5 YEARS, MOST PEOPLE OUTSIDE OF HER STANS DONT REMEMBER HER SONGS FROM TTT…SHE MOVES TOO FAST, BUTS HE HAS TO CAUSE SLOWING DOWN IS NOT AN OPTION WHEN U HAVE NO TRUE TALENT TO FALL BACK ON. PEOPLE PAY FOR QUALITY ALBUMS, AND PEOPLE DOWNLOAD WHAT EVER SINGLE IS POPPING THAT MONTH FOR THERE RINGTONE BUT PEOPLE HARDLY BUY ALBUMS BECAUSE THEY LIKE ONE SONG. HINTS THE REASON RIHANNA HAS ALL THOSE NUMBER ONE SINGLES WITH ONE NUMBER ONE ALBUM AFTER 6 TRYS. BEYONCES 5 CONSECUTIVE NUMBER ONE ALBUMS SHOW THAT BEYONCE IS THE BETTER ARTIST, THAT AND HER CONSTANT SLAYING OF EVERYBODYS FAV. RIHANNA BEST ALBUM DIDNT OUTSELL BEYONCE’S WORST…COME ON NOW. BEYONCE HAS PAVED THE WAY FOR THE LIKES OF RIHANNA AND OTHER ARTIST SHOW RESPECT SOMETIMES, RIHANNA CAME IN THIS GAME SAYING BEYONCE WAS HER IDOL, THAT RIGHT THERE SPEAKS FOR ITSELF.
AND NO MATTER WHEN BEYONCE DROPPED HER ALBUM AS LONG AS IT WAS THE SAME MATERIAL SHE WOULD HAVE SLAYED, HELL OFF HER NAME ALONE SHE WOULD HAVE OUT SOLD ALL OF THOSE GIRLS U NAMES…4 AND A NEW 100 MILLION DOLLAR GROSSING TOUR WITH NO NEW MUSIC OUT SHOWED THAT. YOU MEAN TO TELL ME U THOUGHT PEOPLE WOULD PAY 100 OF DOLLARS TO SEE HER PERFORM OLD S***, BUT NOT BUY THE NEW S*** EVEN U DONT BELIEVE THAT.
I KNOW THIS WAS A LONG BLEEP POST BUT I JUST HAD TO SAY ALL THAT, OH AND BEYONCE ONLY PROMO WAS WORD OF MOUTH. THE SUPERBOWL, PEPSI, DOCUMENTARY, INAUGURATIONS, THE TOUR NEVER NOT ONE PROMOTED A ALBUM IF THAT WAS THE CASE PEOPLE WOULDN’T HAVE BEEN ASKING ABOUT NEW MUSIC ALL DARN YEAR. YOU OBVIOUSLY DONT HAVE A CLUE WHAT PROMO IS..BEY DROPPED THAT ALBUM WITH ZERO F U C K S T O GIVE, AND STILL SLAYED EVERY OTHER POP/RNB GIRL THIS YEAR.
@Hivy … ok thanks. I thought it was Blow (which I love)..
@Beyfan Blow is goog but not for radio per say. All I want is that “Partition” Go to urban radio.

Damn! I mean just damn! Without being plastered on pizza boxes,dragging people on instagram and twitter,without relying on streams to get a “Gold”Plague after half a damn year(Yea that’s shade),without us writing pointless letters to for her to promote her s***,without over hyping her product only to see it be smacked into an “COMMERCIAL” and utterly “CRITICAL” flop(twice this year it’s happened)
The fact that the album is amazing!!!
No excuses, Beyonce started the year Big and ended the year Huge!
BEYONCE IS THE BEST, SIMPLY THE BEST LIVE ENTERTAINER IN WORLD.HER SHOWS ARE SUPREME ABOVE EVERYBODY. THAT WOMAN CAN PUT A SHOW, DAMMNNMMNN, NO THERE IS NO ONE BETTER THAN HER.LIVE SHE IS THE BEST, NO ONE CAN BEAT HER, NO ONE.
Hold up. Did LoveShit really say Diana Ross isn’t a Icon? U b****** don’t know sh*t about legendary artists. U h*** stan for garbage ass artists that will never become Iconic as Diana Ross. A Hoeianna/Katy stan want to call out Greats. Diana was awarded by Guinness World records as the most successful singer of the century. She and others n the 60s where the blueprint for black artists trying to crossover. 13 #1 timeless hits vs garbage by Hoeianna and Katy. #MJ IS ROLLIN N HIS GRAVE
And @ Truth. Child please research music greats history. You’re delusional and dumb ass Ciflop stans. If u think a artist has to have an diamond certified album to bey considered legendary. The first woman to be issued n the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame Aretha Franklin doesn’t have an diamond certified album. Shes more legendary than all those women with diamond certified albums. And Tina is known for her music and performances. U don’t know jacksh*t. So just don’t day anything, if u don’t know anything.
*say*
I don’t like the way she sells her album, There’s no song on radio, no music video before she sells her album and it’s not fair if Billboard counted it.
She sold 550k because people wants to know how the album is it. No song on radio, no video on Youtube, and i’m confused she’s No.1 or she’s No.100
