*Pinned: Posts Resume As Normal Below*
Beyonce rocked the music industry moments ago with the release of her fifth studio album – ‘Beyonce’. Yes, you read right…the release!
Details below…
Billed as a ‘Visual Album’, the 14-track set is available on iTunes now – along with 17 videos!
Peep the shocking press release below, where Beyonce’s video revealation also awaits…
“The self-titled set is the artist’s first visual album. BEYONCÉ is infused with 14 new songs and 17 visually stunning, provocative videos shot around the world from Houston toNew York City to Paris, and Sydney to Rio de Janeiro, all before the album’s release.
“I see music,” says Beyoncé about her decision to create a visual album. “It’s more than just what I hear. When I’m connected to something, I immediately see a visual or a series of images that are tied to a feeling or an emotion, a memory from my childhood, thoughts about life, my dreams or my fantasies. And they’re all connected to the music.”
That the album is available on the day the world is learning about its release is an unprecedented strategic move by the artist to deliver music and visual content directly to her fans when she wants to and how she wants to, with no filter. This unique approach allows music fans to be the first to listen, view, engage and form their own opinions void of any middleman. In the age of social media and an insatiable appetite for direct communication, this is the answer to the question asked over and over again, when is Beyoncé’s next album coming?
“I didn’t want to release my music the way I’ve done it,” she states. “I am bored with that. I feel like I am able to speak directly to my fans. There’s so much that gets between the music, the artist and the fans. I felt like I didn’t want anybody to give the message when my record is coming out. I just want this to come out when it’s ready and from me to my fans.”
Stripped of gimmicks, teasers and marketing campaigns, this project is truly about art before hype.
Starting now, BEYONCÉ is available globally and exclusively on the iTunes Store (www.itunes.com/beyonce).
For an artist who has been the target of leaks, this is a fully designed preventative plan. The album will be offered as a cohesive body of work with every song and every video available all at once for one single purchase.
While not a concept album, the record is designed to be consumed as a comprehensive audio/visual piece from top to bottom. The antithesis of making singles, the visual album is a non-linear journey through the thoughts and visions of Beyoncé.
Manufacturing of physical albums begins today and the double disc CD/DVD will be available at retail in time for the holidays.
Individual songs will be available for purchase on iTunes on December 20th. For now, though…
BEYONCE YAAAAAS IM STANNING RIGHT NOW.
B**** DRUNK IN LOVE IS EVERYTHING
BEYONCE JUST CHANGED THE GAME! EGG ON YO FACE B******! JUST LIKE THAT! DAMN BEYONCE!!!!!! KING!
LOVEBIRD DONT BRING YO ASS IN HERE HATING WITHOUT LISTENING TO THE ALBUM ITS AMAZING OMFG WORTH THE WAIT LIKE SERIOUSLY AAAAAAAAAAH. ONFFFWHKDDB
You’re late SAMANTHA, I had this tea before you.
ONLY BEYONCE! CONGRATS QUEEN!
@Molly, you’re the new Cake like lady gaga and Johnvidal, obsessed with my comments….I CAN’T.
Hahahahahahaha! I just cracked a joke saying “worry about Beyonce NOT dropping an album”. (First plane to madison square garden so I can seat myself please.)
Who gives a f*** about who spilled the tee first…… Beyonce spilled the t and gagged everybody…… Her idea was smart……
Watch her video on her FB page…it explains her ‘secret’ release.
*hands wig*
I wasn’t ready, go Bey!
Lovebird butch d*** please
I can’t.
I CANNOT
The amount of can’t’s that I cannot.
I’m really gagging!
And the game will NEVER be the same
@Lovebird and your the new pop royalty! btw how them edges feeling after that legendary dragging my good sis Super Cisus gave you today????
No1 ever, could ever.. Beyonce is the Queen. Clearly
OMFG BEYONCEEE JUST SNATCHED MY WIG I AM BALD!!!!!!!!!! QUEEN!!!!!!
14 songs,
17 videos……
What this artist is doing is almost better than Christmas.
No shade to Jesus Christ… I love you down.
But Beyoncé just snatched so many wigs, so effortlessly….. Who’s doing that right now. And the album is not discounted and watch it go #1
Her new era has begun!!!!
Beyoncé did the un-thinkable!!!!!!!
IS THERE ANY DOUBT NOW? “Beyonce is to scared to release new music” What now you stupid little haters? What now!!!
Anyway I have sampled it and it’s just OK, nothing ground breaking.
As expected from the t***** herself, release the most retarded garbage known to man, like “partition, “drunk in love”, “mine”,”FLAWLESS”, my ears are bleeding
The only songs that stand out, pretty hurts, haunted, no angel, XO, ; the rest is meh.
I give it a C+
It is most definitely better than Celine Dion’s Loved me back to life, but nothing good or amazing, just passable and filler like.
This album is brilliant! I love XO and Mine and Drunk Love, I see those all as #1’s BOW DOWN HATERS! BEYONCE JUST SLAYED THE MUSIC WORLD!!! ITS GOING DOOOOOWN! AND SHE’LL STILL DEBUT #1!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Seriously no hope for GaGa anymore Lmao.
IS THERE ANY DOUBT NOW? “Beyonce is too scared to release new music” What now you stupid little haters? What now!!!
Haha no shade!!!
It’s very that! To just snatch your own wig and hand it to her. The kids weren’t ready…
She didn’t give the f*** any time to blog about how much her album will flop. I bet you it’s being purchased all around the world right now
Rihanna who? Gaga who? Katy who? SLAYONCE IS HERE FAGGITS
@Molly
I’m the new POP ROYALTY?? Thank god I’m someone educated and opinionated, who is not afraid to speak his mind. You’re the new Slay_Hive, uncultured and ghetto.
WHATTTTTTTTTTT!!! YASSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSS I CANT BREATH THIS WAS SO UNEXPECTED.
S*** WHAT SHADE ARE YOU GONNA USE NOW? I THOUGHT THE ALBUM WAS NEVER COMING? I THOUGHT SHE WAS SCARED??
NOT EVEN GONNA LIE – WHEN WILL MY FLOP FAVE?
Yall were not ready, I knew Bey was gonna do some random s*** like this
@Iconic Cici
The real question is Ciara who?? Ciara never was, Goodies was like a wind blowing, it came and went.
Ehat???!!!! I’m standing in the airport abou to catch my flight having a heart attack! Did this b*tch just sneak up and snatch the sh*t outta my scalp??!!! The silent slayage! Watch this go platinum this month. What a Christmas surprise!!
Anyway it’s not available in my country yet so I cannot purchase it, it is most definitely better than 4, save for those hot mess Love and War B-sides (“partition, “drunk in love”, “mine”,”FLAWLESS”).
Poor GAGS though, EVERYBODY has released a better album that ARTFLOP, I CAN’T.
This is why Beyonce is and will always remain the QUEEN
Didn’t sample it, just bought it.
THIS is how you drop an album folks.
Queen muthaphuckin BEY!!!!!!!
Howw can she do all of this with a husband, child, tour , etc. BOSS B****
Wow!!! just like that
Is it too late to get this in some grammy categories?
B**** why are you doing this TO ME!?? I HAVE AN ASSIGNMENT DUE TOMMOROW BEYONCE B****!! Why choose to distract me with the slayage right now? WHY?
The fact that I cant lie anymore…. IM A HIVE MEMBER. I love Rihanna but, she really could never. I only stanned for her cuz beyonce was paying us dust. Im getting life at 1248 in the morning.
Omg lovebird who knew you were still alive after that GaGa post.
HEY CIARA…..YOU OUT THERE? THIS IS HOW YOU DO IT!!! LMAO I GOT A EARLY XMAS GIFT!!!
JUST WHEN YOU THOUGHT IT WAS SAFE …….WELCOME BACK MOTHA 🙂
Its officially over for lady gaga damn. Beyonce will definitely get her a top ten hit this year/ next year.
I wasn’t ready. I just can’t. She’s the true definition of a boss b****. Omggggggggggggg!
MERRY CHRISTMAS HIVE. I just DLed the album. I didn’t BUY it, but I DLed it 😉 lemme perch in my pajamas and see if it’s any good.
her songs sounds good she was listening!! but that was unexpected
may have to grow on me ,but i haven’t heard anything to grab my attention
Listening to the first song, this b**** came for blood didn’t she, the vocals are the best I’ve heard this year (poor Mariah/Celine).
The songs are pretty good (Poor Gags).
A step up I guess. Now to go through the writing credits, no shady tactics I hope.
Yassss Bey, slay meeeeeeee!!!!!!!!
And Gaga is still on ur mind after all this time. Wtf does this have to do with her?? Y’all stay reaching…this is why females can’t succeed. Messy f*** like y’all gotta put them against each other….no one said Gaga’s album was amazing or groundbreaking but ur the pressed one thinking about it on a Beyonce post. That clearly says a lot about Gaga’s impact as an artist. I notice u don’t bring flopney s***** perry or Rihanna into the equation as much. Lmao….smh. Idiots.
Is that you??? Like wtf? Actually giving credit to Beyonce!??? Are you sick???
THIS IS A TWO PART RECORD!!!!
no wonder she did not drop a single, their are no song on the album that could be a lead single
Wait, she just drops a visual album in the middle of the night?!?!?!
That why I love her. 🙂
Already purchased.
And on the 4th the Queen bestowed upon us visuals that will give us everlasting life. Amen Bxtch
XO…… Will be a number one record!!!! LISTEN TO IT!! BEYONCE IS ABOUT TO SLAY THE WORLD!!!
I knew her weird tactics were for a reason….
B**** thought f*** this I’m for blood mwahahaha!!
Her best music to date. I told yall don’t underestimate her.
@Xedos XO is a mega hit! This is a two part album! She’s not going anywhere!
Am I getting my life? I’ll be posting updates for the Hive while I listen
B**** GaGa is done face it she wont survive with Beyonce Miley and Katy all on her f****** neck
I just went through the the writing credits, this woman is truly shameless, what else is new.
Anyway this is her best album, and probably one of the best pop albums this year, the vocals are on point, the b**** came for blood, I’ll give her credit on that.
If it goes platinum, it actually deserves it. If only she can remove her name on the writing and production credits because we all know that’s a lie.
I just bought the whole album and I’m gonna listen to this on the plane ride. This is a really cool surprise. This is what people want, and that’s music NOW! F*ck waiting for a “video” for nine months (see Rihanna). May have you wait but it’s for a d*mn good reason! Totally worth it
I told y’all she wasn’t playing this go around . She is a VIRGO. She coming for the bloods.
I will be the first to admit I had my doubts. But Beyoncé has literally REVOLUTIONIZED THE GAME. The music industry will never be the same after this. People will be talking about this for months, if not years from now. ICONIC. LEGENDARY. She has my money. She deserves it. Flawless, raw, heartfelt, s***, emotional, empowering. This is a movement. King Bey. Bow Down B******.
@JER
I can’t believe it but I’m actually getting some life from this. It is like listening to Ray of light (production wise), and The Velvet Rope (quality wise).
Havent listened to anything yet…but i sooo hope this works for her, if it works we might see more artist do something similar on a smaller scale of course, but i have my doubts
@Lovebird dude whatever i dont wanna fight with you cause i actually like you 🙁
Haunted>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>
Did Kanye West write that press release? because we all know Beyonce cannot form a full sentence, it sounds very Kanye West like. Sorry not getting my hard earned money until I hear some songs.
Beyonce the type of person that got haters as fans. Hate all u want the bish know how to throw down a tune as well as perform.
Btw, y are Ciara Stans coming for somebody? There’s no hope for Cierror no matter what female comes and slays her. SIT. Lol.
King BEYONCE just annihilated every singer in the world. Only Bey could snatch wigs like that. Yes Gaawwwd she did that! Your fav will never have this much power. Ooh weee go ahead & hate but you will respect beyonce. I’m done!
she can keep this she talks about how many tracks she recorded and how people don’t make album . girl please this is garbage.
Plus, finally music with MEANING! Applause, Work B*tch, Pour it Up what?? Lol!! I see @Sh*tbird got caught up in the slayage and got SCALPED bald!! Lol!! Shame lol
@Molly
I like you too but the Ciara stans are a mess, someone had to check them.
SURF BOARD
SURF BOARDDDD
and please, i know you are all happy but leave the bragging till the album actually does something, for all you this could flop then all hour bragging just makes everything worse then it really is. Remember 4/artpop…those albums only flop because of the over zealous fans
OMG BEYONCE SLAYS HONEY! I just watched 4 videos, and they are all so different-AMAZING (GOD I LOVE THIS WOMAN!) GET EM B!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Queen barb, shouldn’t u worry about ur fave tho? Does she even exist anymore? Poor dat. She’s about as relevant as Soulja Boy now.
I see Enough Onika is part of the Lovebird fan club. I’m always on your mind I see.
“She’s about as relevant as Soulja Boy now.”
Ooop, you shady b****, SlayNika is coming, get ready.
We Be All Night LOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooove
Love that she literally pissed in the face of that desktop employee waiting to leak the album days before the official release date…what release date b****…#sleepingonthejob…#watertightnoleaks
just tell me how it’s looking babe, tell me how it’s looking babe
Don’t worry girls, you’ll be getting your life tomorrow after school. You’ll be singing I can’t waitttt tillll i get homeeeeeeeee
@BLUE B**** STFU WE’RE BRAGGING ABOUT THE MUSIC NOT THE F****** SALES.
@Stop the drama yes b****! These haters be perched getting their lyfee to the album, first ones to download. The Hive ARE NOT lying when they say that.
No shade , but y’all do know its a wrap for the other girls . Then we
Get Rihanna in the fall ….Bam
Beyonce really listened…. It’s a masterpiece
but is this it? Like no more album next year? Is this the album we have been waiting for or just something to wet out appetites? Kinda like a mixtape carter style? Feel a little deflated even before i have listened to the album…
This is just part ONE OMFG the wait was so worth it. She CAME HARD even the BIGGEST doubters have got to admit it. B**** DELIVERED. Receive that life with the hive GURLS!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
I’m on Track #5 and it’s giving me Dangerously in Love T’s MY LIFE HAS OFFICIAL DONE BEEN GET, GOT, AND GONE WITH THE WIND WIG, WEAVE, AND NEW GROWTH!!!!

I guess it’s a wrap…ey Gags??
You had a cute run in the Fame era, bye felicia.
EVERYONE WHO HAS THE ALBUM!!!! WATCH ***FLAWLESS!!! BEY IS GETTING DOWN!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
JEALOUS>>>>>
I thought 4 would be the last time I would pay money for a Beyonce album, I never thought I would actually get life from a Beyonce album. How did that happen?
I go take a shower for 10 minutes..come back and find Beyoncé randomly just dropped an entire album on itunes…and on it’s my birthday…i can’t process life right now.
Wow she really did that with this didn’t she. Even I as a fan wasn’t expecting that.
Awwwwwwwww Blue Blue @ 3:27!
Rocket giving D’angelo how does it feel tease.
Get out my head! My exact thoughts
Go Awfff Beyoncé!!! This album is stunning in every way possible!!! I feel like I finally know the REAL Beyoncé .
@Lovebird! Beyonce really did that! This is going to be a great year for her! and it’s only part one!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
I AM SCREAMINGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGG Partition!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! I won’t be able to sleep tonight
@#Beautiful
Honestly after this if she has a good year, I won’t even be mad.
GaGa somewhere crying tho .
I’m actually crying I’m so happy Beyoncé you did that baby. Blue Ivy track *wipes tears*.
I am literally crying. “Jealous.” I feel like I just came to Jesus. This is THE Beyonce album.
@Molly
We need to put Gaga on s****** watch.
PLEASE, LETS NOT TURN THIS INTO ANOTHER POST ABOUT CIARA………
ITS ACTUALLY TIME TO PUT ALL OUR FAVS CDS BACK ON THE SHELVES…. BECAUSE THIS IS AN EPIC MOMENT!!
GAME CHANGER, LEAVE THE DRAGGING AT HOME!
EVEN CIARA, GAGA, RIHANNA, SHAKIRA, KATY, MARIAH, TAMAR, AND THE BITTCHES I SHALL NOT NAME, THEY ALL KNOW AND RECOGNIZE THE T!
I think Beyoncé may have just had her ‘Miseducation’ moment in her discography. This is the fucken shebangggzzz!!!!
I just wanna say you’re mine you’re mine…..Drake is everything on this track.
Beyonce of all people is giving me life, how did I let her slip a fast one on me?
HOLY F*ck!!!!! im screaming like crazy!!!!
Rocket baby ROCKET
damn.
PUNISH ME PLEASE
XO is my fav jam.
XO >>>> anything out this year.
I’m crying. I’m like literally on tears this is just I can’t comment. Please don’t be negative cause this is good guys. I’m on tears . I just can’t I’m sorry. Omg
I have only liked one beyonce album, and that was dangerously in love, this is her 2nd best album. I just wonder is it good enough to be her best selling album # no shade. It’s not a bad album so far, it’s OK. In my book so far. I won’t say anything bad about it right now, but i know the beehive will hype it up already without giving it a few spins, and letting it marinate a little
@Lovebird b**** ok!!!! idk how she will survive tbh.
XO is gonna be a smash!!!
Beyonce has put me in my f****** place as of tonight.
@Molly
Like is anyone going to be talking about ARTPOP now??
I can’t at album of the millennium.
Xo is my favorite track b**** bout to get her a number 1 with this song.
This album is brilliant I can’t lie. I just got my life 1000x over. You know its good when the haters are stanning.
people are loving this album
@Lovebird girl hell naaaaaaah! they wasn’t even talkin about it before Slayonce was released.
The Miseducation of Beyonce Knowles
Poor Gaga, I hope this is a wake up call she desperately needs.
Katy Snatched her on the singles and album front
Miley snatched her on the attention seeking and gimmicks front
Beyonce snatched her on the quality front
What does Artpop have left??
BEYONCE you know you done something right when you shut your biggest critics up. this is why ive been so hard on Beyonce she has f****** delivered no more mediocre s*** your defiantly going down as a legend.
I never considered myself a member of The Hive until I found myself screaming out of joy upon hearing this news. Speechless. Shocked. Slayed. Dead.
I don’t want them to make any of these songs singles. There are already videos, just let the album speak for itself. Radio can’t handle these songs.
“FLAWLESS! I WOKE UP LIKE THIS, I WOKE UP LIKE THIS! SAY I LOOK SO GOOD NIGGGHHHTT!” BEYONCE SLAYED THE SH*T OUTTA EACH AND EVERY ONE OF YOUR FAVS!!! RIHANNA AN ICON??? PEOPLE FORGOT ABOUT THAT NOW LOL!! ICON = HOT FOR THE MOMENT, LEGEND (BEYONCE) = FOR LIFE!!!
Where tf is @Slay_Hive? B**** wake up!!!
Drunk in Love is about to kill the radio!!!!!!
Jay and B killed it again
Yonce my God!!!! im done…..
this is her second best album because it sounds very mature yet very updated like it fit for now. drunk in love and haunted are on some kind of different beyonce
Why are yall sleeping on flawless though?
@Molly you get your copy??!!
For now my fav songs are partition, XO, and Yonce. I don’t know about the rest so far i guess i will have to wait to hear the full versions.
This is her best album for so many reasons. The vocals, the quality, the emotion just everything is PERFECTION. Beyoncé got people standing for the music again and not thinking about the charts off first listen.
Godamn godamn GODAMN!!!
@EnoughOnika girl yes b**** did you???????
@Lovebird, your obsession with Gaga is ridiculous. Let it go.
You stan for Katy, Britney, and Justin Bieber. Your opinion on Gaga is automatically invalid. Now, after talking mad sh*t about Beyoncé for MONTHS, you suddenly love her????!!!!!! Pathetic tbh.
BYE.
Lord Beyonce done made me pop a bottle of moscato open!
Why is Blue M***** featured on her album tho?
Gaga and Brintey…..ya’ll can just throw in the towel now…Especially Gaga, career is OVER boo…#sorry. She gave you time and you STILL couldn’t deliver. Oh well. BYE FOREVER! Katy was smart and gave herself at least two-three months of some attention, now she knows that Prism era is over lol!!! And Rihanna been gave up cause she knew what was coming!! You mad??
@Molly Of course!!! I’m being slayed up and down this f*ckin plane right now lol!!!!
Wow, even the video for XO is amazing. That song will be stuck with me for the whole of next year it seems.
SLAY MY LIFE BEY!
The most exciting release by any major artist this year, hands down! Heading to iTunes to buy it right now.
Enough Onika being messy as usual
@Mary Mary, let Gaga produce another Fame era type masterpiece and I’ll stan for her music (not her, there’s a difference)
2014 = year of Beyonce! Rihanna, all other might as well break for two, three years….
Ugh!! I can’t even go to sleep and I have to get up in an hour lol..ugh!!! Damn bey whyyyy???.whyyyyy??
@MsCarter Exactly!! Scared of releasing new music??? She just released a WHOLE new ALBUM with NO PROMO and NO WORD OF IT’S RELEASE!! While your fans struggle to find a leading single and deem the flops a “promo.” Where you at @Sh*tbird?????
She’s trending like crazy!!!
I guess Beyonce proved me wrong, she came out of nowhere and officially slayed, snatched and scalped, I can’t deal.
Goodnight everybody.
@QUETTE
Flawless gave me everything, the video for it slayysssss
Slice of humble pie anyone?
@Sh*tbird oh no, don’t get “fan” confused with wanting an explanation from your hating a*s lol!! Care to stand behind your evil hate from the past year now???? Did she take your tongue out along with your scalp while you were tossed and thrown in the slayage tornado??!!
@Amanda coming for a baby? seriously kill yourself you piece of s***.
@EnoughOnika yaaaaaaas b**** TURN UP on the plane GETCHO LIIIIIIIFEEEEE!
Why she do this to me?????? From what I’ve heard and seen I’m getting life. I think we might have us a hit album.
As a fan she exceeded everything I was expecting….
take it one step further
QUEEN BEYONCE YOU HAVE GIVEN ME A NEW MEANING TO LIFE THAT I HAVE NEVER FELT BEFORE WITH THIS SURPRISING RELEASE. NO ONE ELSE COULD NEVER.
MY EXPECTATIONS HAVE BEEN EXCEEDED WAY MORE THAN I WAS PLANNING FOR. HUN. EVERY F*CKING SONG AND VIDEO HAS SLAYED MY EXISTENCE. LIKE WHAT???
Yall learned today
Gucci mane and Lupe fiasco are pressed go their Twitters yall they trying Beyonce especially Gucci ol ugly punk ass.
I know one thing. If you’re down with the beehive, your ass better be on iTunes downloading BEYONCE’! I’m really proud of her. Didn’t think I would be on iTunes today, especially to find she dropped an album out of nowhere! 17 videos, not one song leaked, critics weren’t even given enough time to criticize! A moment In music we will never forget.
The album is f****** FLAWLESS byeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeee
I’m loving every drop ALL 14 SONGS and 17 VIDEO.
so she takes this long break and comes back with s*** like this as music NO THANK YOU!!!
Call me what you want but the child is not impressed. i was hoping she would rip my wig from my glued hairless head. honestly it’s underwhelming, and when you all come down from your high, you will feel that way too! You’ll just happy to have new beyonce music that’s what this is about. Well Goodnight that is all!
aaaahhhhhh! yas bey
BTW Beyonce album has leaked
I seriously cant even live anymore.
GaGa who? its over for you c***. Rihanna knew what wassup that’s why yall didn’t get R8 this year. Katy and Miley had their little shine but its over.
exactly!!!it’s just like when you’re starved for some time and then any sort of food tastes fantastic,i expected better from the album considering how long we’e been teased
I just died….and came back to life. XO is EVERTHING. I LIVE FOR IT!!!!!
Good Nite my ASS. Lovebird!!! You know good and damn well,that you are about to go on iTunes click, download, and listen to Mother Bey’s new album. Now continue to BOW DOWN b****.
@Lydia
Me too!!! Im supposed to be studying for my final tomorrow and my friend texted me about this!!!!!! LAAAAWWWWDDDD
@HoneyChildPlease oh hush, you clearly haven’t listened to the album in its entirety and some songs have a remix at the end/middle which kills Petition/Flawless). AND you haven’t watch the videos I bet which is the main course for this album. It’s a VIDEO album
Ummmm so was BDAY, and 4. It had visuals to every video. So what are saying? This is new? All i said was it leaked. It has leaked so why you mad? Yes i did listen to it. I mean it wouldn’t be fair if i gave a blind opinion without listening to it right?? How you sound now? My OPINION is it’s ok, kind of underwhelming now deal!
GREAT concept Beyonso ! but after the frenzy this will be an INTERNATIONAL FLOP. The album is one big SNOOZE FEST . Seeing how thirsty the H.l.V was/is, they are surely not prepared for the MASSIVE INTERNATIONAL FLOPPAGE ahead of them. More breakdowns to come but not for the same reasons. #TheTruthTea
“Stripped of gimmicks, teasers and marketing campaigns, this project is truly about art before hype.”
OOOOHHHHHH LADY FLOPGA IS CRYING SOMEWHERE IN THE CORNER CAUSE THE SHADE IS THICK AF! LMAO
@HoneyChild I don’t give a damn, the album is giving ME (what’s important) life and your bitter a*s can eat a** sh*t.Your taste isn’t for good music, ok cool. Bye!
I have great taste in music. I guess that’s why im not impressed by her attempt. It won’t do nothing internationally or domestically, but if it does i guess congrats i;m not a hater. I just don’t like this album. Hey it made her thirsty ass fans happy though so that counts for something.
What the f*** is going on ?
wHAT . THe f*** .. Is GoING ON ?
I’m from a 3w Middle Eastern country, my internet connection’s download rate is lower that 10kBps … I have to study for 11 exams in 35 days, and it’s raining outside …..
so TELL ME THIS IS NOT TRUE ?
😥
I am having the MELTDOWN OF THE DECADE
😥 😥 😥
the ALBUM AND VIDEOS
😥 😥 😥 😥 😥
you hives are delusional!! Where is the wig snatching??? Rihiconna is never scared of no damn Beyonce.I wouldn’t be surprised if she gets that lady gimmick treatment.
Ummmm no Miseducation had hits!
I cannot f****** breathe. Beyonce,why did you have to snatch so hard,huh,why? You could have at least left a strand of hair! My scalp is bleeding right now GAAAAAAWWWWWDDDD!!!!!!!! IT HAS BEGUUUNNNNNN!!!!!!!
Enough Onika,
You just said that she will shut down rih.Ummmm Rih is number 1 on POP BB CHART, WITHOUT PAYOLA, let see if any of these stale predicted RNB can rock AMERICAN RADIO THE WAY RIH CAN – WITHOUT PAYOLA. BEY IS NOT F****** WITH RIH. RIH BREAKS RECORDS IN HER SLEEP. I DOUBT BEYONCE WILL GET A POP NUMBER 1.
IN TERMS OF RIHANNA? She has 2 movies coming next year, while beyonce has none. She was seen leaving teh recording studio last night and u know SHE KNOWS HOW TO BRING A POP RADIO HIT( NO PAYOLA NEEDED ) HER SONG WITH SHAKIRA WILL DEAD AND BURY BEYONCE 17B SONGS AND VIDEOS, WHICH, BY NEXT WEEK, WHEN ALL THE JUICE HAS SIMMERED, WILL FLOP LIKE KANYE WEST.
Nicky Romeri said her new album is NEW FUNKY SOUND, and she has been teasing ghetto goth. Beyonce new work is not new, fresh or edgy, same old s***. SHE STILL ENJOYING THE MONSTER, WHICH WILL BOUNCE TO NEXT YEAR, FOR SURE.
THE F*** OUTTA HERE!
RIH ISW THE QUEEN OF POP AND NO ONE CAN TOUCH HER. WITH 17 SONGS LET SEE IF SHE GETS ONE NUMBER 1
I’m not even exaggerating but this B**** is f****** bad for doing this to me, i had to wake up and see s*** like this. BLUE will get her first Grammy lmao That song is getting me so emotional like why BEYONCE WHY BEYONCE WHY !!!!!!!!! I can’t breath properly wtf is going on ! Beyonce I BOW DOWN
Oh where my wig at? I ammm gaagggggiiinnnn b****. She is sippin her tea right now!!!
I see trying to copy madonna and gaga with the yoga style chanting, on ghost, but her heavy ghetto texan accent spoils it. The video looks just like sweet dreams, only she is fatter and older.
Blow: I like this funky song. Makes me think of studio 54, a club I wish I could of partied at. might cop that! The video looks just like party, nothing new. Sounds like something that could be on 4.
Blue: Another cheesy ballad. Terrible song
Drunk in love THE BW video has been done before on her last album
Haunted is poor attempt of Eroctica. A ghetto cheap version. She cannot f*** with madonna when it comes to video.
The song with frank coean is wack. A waste of his talents. The video looks like run the world and lose my breath.
Lana, madonna, gaga and Rih are the only girls who can do 17 videos and they all have look different and slay. could u imagine if Lana or Rih and Madonna gave 17 videos? HAIR, STORYLIne etc.
Rocket is the exact same as drunk love, she is in B/W frolicking on a beach. She has done video like that before and baby boy is the same concept. When Rih does s*** and tender ( calfornia king bed or rehab ) she looks different and there is storyline ) Rih would not just role on a beach for no reason. And the best beacj black and white video will always be wicked games, by chris isaak feat helena christensen.
Flawless. Ilike the beat and dancing, even the lyrics, but looks and sounds just like Diva. Nothing new.
Yonce. This will not be a readio hit.and she gets 3 black supermodels to muder her in her own video. HA. AT least when Rih uses a white supermodel, laticia Casta in TE AMO, all eyes where on Rih. Wack video.
XO – wack song and video.
Grown woman/ Like cliche version of african culture. Video cheaper version of rude boys, only rue boys was pop hit from the jump. Grown woman will not work on AMERICAN POP RADIO.
Haunted is her ‘ madonna ‘ cut, Because Rih is tounted as the black madonna, the pressure for her to try it it has mounted. Nope, the video looks more cheaper stale version of Just dance by gaga. Too overstyle. Go back and watch erotica and justify my love. Less is more. Should of been in black and white ala herb ritts.
Heaven…….????????Hardly stay is it? She is not very good at making a ballad that can slay.
jealous: Of rihanna? Duh! The video and song wont slay.
The song with drake is waste of his talent, there is no way it is good as Whats my name, which was s*** and pop, hence why it slayed. There version wont slay pop radio. That is what it all comes down too. The video looks liek run the world, baby boy in gaga drag costume.
No angel. Why does she keep doing these HTOWN BAD B**** videos?
Partition: She is more or less n***, so miss me with rihanna sells s***. So does she. The video looks just like naught boy and that video ciara done with JT. Also, 1+1 again, I have seen all this before. She could have at least changed her hair and rocked a BLUE WIG or something.
Pretty hurts: Must HAVE been written by One republic guy. Cheap knock off of halo and the video is so cliche.
THERE IS NOT A SINGLE POP SLAY HIT OR VEVO HIT ON THIS ALBUM. THE ONLY CUT I AM BUYING IS BLOW . I love that. I like the 70’s party life.
NONE OF THIS CAN F*** WITH ANYTHING RIH HAS DONE SINCE 2006. UNFAITHFUL AND SOS S*** ON ALL THIS. In terms of video, none videos touch hard, te amo, only girl, rehab. Diamonds, russian roulette. Rih is better actor in her videos than bey. Rude bow video, WFL , beyonce still has yet to make a video and pop SMASH LIKE WFL.
This will have good 1st week sales, then like Kanye’s gimmick crash and burn and fizzle out and flop. Meanwhile is about to serve. Rih has worked with Damien Hurst. Think of all the ideas she got from him.
Finally finished downloading!!!!
@Rih keeps winning I can see why they act this way though. Beyonce has been trolling them for 2 years. They think she is doing something spectacular, when its just the same concept as bday.the same repetitive crap.It will flop worse than unapologetic, mark my words.
@rih keeps winning
Save it h**. This album slays everything and you know it. You were one of the people saying that she is scared to release a new single. The whole world is in an uproar on this surprise slayage and you are mad and intimidated. You and the rest of the navy can #StayRanting
Thak u bey! xxxxx
Wow!
Unlike everybody else I kind of had a love/hate thing for 4.
But this album! Beyonce>B’DAY>DIL>IASF>4!
Vocals:A+(Beyonce’s vocals<)
Production:A+(Grammy's will be won!)
Lyrics:Beautifully written songs A+
Get into what Beyonce does when she harmonizes with herself(Blow,Rocket,No Angel>>>>Yes!!
B**** your’re over hear writing novels, on novels, on novels. While in the meantime , Beyoncé’s earning racks, on racks, on racks. Damn you Navy h*** are some insecure ass b******….but the apple doesnt fall too far from the tree. I mean, just look at your no talented, dome headed, man eating splice queen.
Her sound, look and style has not evolved. She is now just an older fatter version o0f 2003. I like Blow and plan to cop dat, but there is global pop smash on this LP. XO, pretty hurts cannot touch WFL OR DIAMONDS ETC.
SHE CANNOT MAKE HITS. WHEN THE PAYOLA RUNS OUT SHE IS F*****. LOL LOL I wll enjoy the meltdowns.
RIH WAS IN THE SUDIO LAST NGHT. LOL IF MY B**** DONE DROP HER NER 14TH NUMBER 1 NEXT WEEK TO BLOCK OUT BEYONCE. HA HA
People say she does not need gimmick or promo. Releasing 17 expensive videos, sho all over the globe, on a day that is not sales day is PROMO AND GIMMICK.U cannot rely on that forever. IF sony dont make their money of this LP, then 17 videos would have been a waste of money.
WW itunes chart
1 THE MONSTER – STILL WAITING FOR THAT VIDEO, WHICH WILL DEAND AND BURY BEYONCE’S 17 VIDZ
45 Diamonds – Diamonds will outsell beyonce new s***, as well as her old
74 STAY
155 WFL
This was from 4 hours ago, in the wake of beyonce new album, still failing to catch rihanna
whoohooooooooooo!!!!!!!!!
Style hasn’t evolved….yet she’s a gimmick??? You sound rihmedial af. The h** you stan for might have to release an album every year and change her damn hair color every 5 minutes oops…I mean “reinvent” herself, just to stay afloat, but Beyoncé doesn’t. She doesn’t rely on her image nor has she had to change her sound. Which is why she’s remained relevant for 17 years. Idc if Beyoncé released a video every damn day…SHE COULD. Because she’s a veteran in the music game. Rihanna is not on the same level or even in the same lane as her.
Gimmick my ass! come talk to me when Rihanna stops relying on controversy and social networks as a ploy to remain relevant. Better yet, get at me when she stops making that talentless, autotuned, generic, pop, b*******. As for the moment, remain silent.
This is how you do it. Boss B****! This album is amazing! I absolutely LOVE IT. And she’s supposed to be scared????? B**** just comes and drops and album like BAM. Only Beyoncé the HBIC can do what she’s doing. And people say she takes no risks? This album is flawless.
The dust has settled. People are not feeling beyonce new album, many says it sounds dated. MANY BEHYHIVE SAY THEY WILL NOT BE BUYING. SHE brings nothing new and cannot DIL . THE LP SHE MADE WHEN RIH WAS IN THE ISLANDS. EVEN WITH DRAKE AND OEACN, THEY FAILED TO DO ANYTHING FOR HER.
WHEN RIH BRINGS SINGER,S THEY ADD TO TEH PROJECT. Mikkey Ekko slayed Stay and CB slay CAKE REMIX.
Rehab with JT is my fave song EVER FROM THE POP QUEEN. BEYONCE IS DONE! AFTER THIS LP, SHE WILL BE IN VEGAS.
Beyonce has to release flawless as one of the singles ASAP
@rih keeps winning but she released without any promo and announcement,and it has set the world on fire. She warned us, “I’m the number 1 chick don’t need no hype ” now back to the irrelevant line you goq
wig still intact. chiillee please.
immick my ass! come talk to me when Rihanna stops relying on controversy and social networks as a ploy to remain relevant. Better yet, get at me when she stops making that talentless, autotuned, generic, pop, b*******. As for the moment, remain silent.
RIH SOLD MILLIONS WITHOUT THE FASHION TWITTER AND INSTAGRAM FROM 2005 TO 2007. In fact, she shut BEY DONE IN 2007. No twitter or instagram. SHE SOLD OVER 4 MILLION IN 2006 AND THAT WAS WHEN SHE CUTE AND SWEETY. F*** U! HER MUSIC HAS NOW MATCHED TEH BEATLES, MARAIH AND MJ / MADONNA. HER MUSIC SUNDS BETTER THAN beyonce ghetto generic dated mess that will flop on POP RADIO AND IN WHITE COUNTRIES THAT DONT LIKE RNB COMNG FROM BLACKS. HA
AT LEAST RIH AND STARGATE KNOW HOW TO MAKE POP SMASH. THERE IS NOT A SINGLE POP SMASH ON BEY’S NEW JAM. AS IF RIH IS STruggling to remain relevant. B**** wears a doobie to collect an icon award and shuts it down. Relevant? She is number 1 and is up for grammy’s.
F*** OUTTA HERE
*go*
EVERYONE is praising Beyonces album, even Lovebird. You know s*** is good.
The albums not a flop…your’re just a stupid h** tbh. There’s not a single pop smash??? OMFG the album has even been out long enough for you to come to that conclusion, genius. But then again, you would know a lot about flopping since the GENERAL MAJORITY of Rihanna’s albums are critically acclaimed flops. Just like her basic ass Cubic Zirconium oops…I mean Diamonds Tour. Rihanna’s not respected as an entertainer not by legends, not by the general public, and especially not by her PEERS.
That’s why your’re here hating…because you feel as if you have something to prove. Aww!!!! Poor dat. Wanna Pepsi boo???
I mean “reinvent” herself, just to stay afloat, but Beyoncé doesn’t. She doesn’t rely on her image nor has she had to change her sound. Which is why she’s remained relevant for 17 years. Idc if Beyoncé released a video every damn day…SHE COULD. Because she’s a veteran in the music game. Rihanna is not on the same level or even in the same lane as her.
Madonna re invents her self. TRhat is why her 53 year old ass murks beyonce. LET SEE IF BEYONCE CAN SLAY IN HER 50’S/ Rih reinvents herself cos she is black madonna, and that is her main role model. All girls dream of being madonna. Bey does rely on an iamge. Her fake ass ghetto JLO fake as blonde flat booty image, which now looks stale as she is like 40. When u see beyonce in real life SHE IS FAT AND OLD. RIH IS COMING. SHE WAS PICTURED LEAVING THE STUDIO LAST NIGHT. HER VIDEO WITH EM COMES NEXT WEEK. HER SONG WITH SHAKIRA COMES NEXT/
WHEN THEY DROP, IT IS OVER FOR BEYONCE. I mean over!
beyonce is at a stage when she has to stay afloat. Rih is cruizing. UNA HAS SOLD 4 MILL. TTT SOLD 4.5, WFL, STAY, DIAMONDS, WHYB AND THE MONSTER WERE ALL KILLER JAMS.
RIH IS GOOD RIGHT NOW. BEYONCE HAS NOT HAS A SMASH SINCE 2008. WE WILL SEE IF SHE CAN GET ONE. RIH LAST GLOBAL SMASH WAS…..RIGHT NOW, THE MONSTER IS GLOBAL SMASH.
f*** outta here.
I see SLAYYAGE coming
HER MUSIC SUNDS BETTER THAN beyonce ghetto generic dated mess that will flop on POP RADIO COUNTRIES THAT DONT LIKE RNB COMNG FROM BLACKS????
Hahah ya know…you should do stand up! Because that’s the funniest thing I’ve heard all day lamo. H**, the U.S. is INDEED the BIGGEST music market in the world. And Rihanna isn’t nearly as popular as Beyoncé is in “White” America. Sorry to burst your bigoted bubbled sweet heart, but that’s a FACT LOL.
Oh! and hun you should be the last one calling anyone ghetto since Rihanna is the EPITOME of hood. Running around screaming thug life every damn minute, twerking her bare ass in some pasty’s and a G-string designed by joseline hernandez, and BREAKING THE BLACK CODE BY WALKING INTO A FORMAL EVENT WITH A DOOBIE WRAP ON ACTING LIKE A HOODRAT FROM THE PROJECTS. That’s ghetto! So u GFTO but until then I suggest that you take your delusional ass to sleep.
Deuces B****:D
SLAYYYYYYYY BEYONCE THIS IS WHAT I’VE BEEN WAITING TO HEAR FROM YOU. THIS IS A MASTERPIECE GIRL! THE BEST ALBUM OF 2013 ALONG WITH JANELLE MONAE
Now I see why Rihanna didn’t release an album b****
the album is good theyre some filler but overall is good album def much better than artpop or prism those two albums are a mess and theyre 2 stars at average i give beyonce credit for being different and not using gimmicks to sell but yall need to stop saying this album has change the game let beyonce have her success and get to number one because yall are gonna look really stupid if this album flops but its a really good album ill give her that
Diamonds tour made 140 mill. Only 4 black acts have crossed 100m mill and Rih is the youngest. SO if Diamodns tour is a flop what does that make Aretha franklin, whitney, mariah etc? They dont have 100 mill tour. HOW MANY BLACK 25 YR OLD CROSS 100 MILL IN TOURS? STOP BEING STUPID. EVEN USHER DOES NOT HAVE 100 MILL TOURS.
THIS NEW BEY LP DOES NOT HAVE A STAND OUT POP SMASH. SHE SHOULD NOT OF TUNRED DOWN WRECKING BALL. Rih’s albms are flops
MOTS – 1.5 AT 17
AGLM 4
GGGB OVER 9 MILL
RATED R 3.5
LOUD OVER 8 MILL
TTT 4.5 OTSOLD 4
UNA 4
IF THAT IS FLOP, THEN US NAVY WILL TAKE THAT. SOME OF RIH’S LP HAVE OUTSOLD BEYONCE. SHE OUTSOLD BEY IN 2011, EVEN THOUGH SHE DRIPPED AFTER HER. THAT WILL HAPPEN IN 2014.’ SHE’ WILL OUTSELL BEYONE.
RIH IS NOT RESPECTED. IS that why Damien hurst called her an icon and CHOSE TO WORK WITH HER OVER EVERY OTHER SINGER, ACTOR? IS THAT WHY TOM FORD says he basis his collection on her. Is that why Mary J , the queen of hip hop, stan for her, is that why JAYZ signed her? Is that why the dream says only she can bring hus song to life? Is that Emimem only f**** with her? Is that JT called her something special. Is that why AMA chose a west indian rude gyal to become an icon? IS THAT WHY KATE MOSS chose to mode with HER? KATE MOSS IS CONSIDERED A LEGEND. SHE CHOSE RIH. IS THAT WHY steven spielber called a great talent. Look at the people who stan for her? She gets all races and all industries. KATE MOSS AND DAMIIEN HURST ARE LEGENDS. LET SEE if beyonce can last 25 years like kate moss at the top. JAYZ and EM ARE HIP HOP LEGENDS AND THEY STAN FOR HER. THE GP DO RESPECT HER, that is why they buy her muisc more then beyonce, who is now on her last legsa.
Oh! and lets not talk about looks when RihferPipe ooop’s… I mean when Rihanna’s cracked out ass is walking around looking like a damn male splice at the age of 25 lol
Good Nite 😀
Hahah ya know…you should do stand up! Because that’s the funniest thing I’ve heard all day lamo. H**, the U.S. is INDEED the BIGGEST music market in the world. And Rihanna isn’t nearly as popular as Beyoncé is in “White” Americ
Who has the most number 1’s in the USA? WHO IS THE YOUNGER ONE WHO CAN DROP MORE ALBUMS? WHO GETS MORE AIRPLAY ON AMERICAN POP RADIO? RIH HAS SOLD 10 MILL IN THE USA, DONT GET IT TWISTED, SHE IS ONLY 25. SHE HAS AND BIGGER THAN EVER. SHE HAS PLENTY OF TIME TO BODY BEYONCE USA ALBMS SALES.
THIS NEW LP FROM BEY WILL NT EVEN SELL 2 MILL.
rIH DID NOT DROP IN NOV COS SHE WAS ON TOUR.
You really do need to take a nap if you cant come to the realization that Music Of The Sun, A Girl Like Me, and Rated are were all FLOPS LOL. Hell! Unapologetic pulled flop numbers despite all of its hit singles smh. So yeah…most of her albums are flops. things didn’t start looking up until GGGB. She’s not a good, or even better album seller than Beyoncé. And lastly shes merely a singles artist. THEREFORE, you should be less concerned about Beyoncé’s current album situation and more about your inconsistent flop of a faves tbh. END OF STORY.
Sorry Rih, I love you dearly but this is the QUEEN right here!!!!
The operative question is….who has sold more in the U.S.A ? And the answer is, Beyoncé…you stupid h** *face hits palm*
NEXT WEEK or so. Rih’s video with Shakira and Em will drop. Rih might even drop her new single too, u never know! THEN WE WILL SEE WHO HAS THE LAST LAUGH.
TRUST! U REALLY THINK RIH IS JUST SITTING THERE NOT PLANNING HER NEXT MOVE?
HA. HA.
Yesss @ Katy stanning for her on Twitter. That’s why I love Katy she so positive about everyone.
TAMAR YOU CAN CRAWL BACK INTO YOUR CAVE NOW THE QUEEN IS BACK
Damn! … Since 16 in her stilettos!!! …
2013 & Bey is still everything!!!! #Legend
She actually is a thief, not original, didn’t Chris Brown say he did a video for every song on his album.
I have just come back from the other pop blog ( A…) and they are sayign, it will be a fight between shakira and Ri VS BEY and SHARIH will win cos they are BOTH GLOBAL HITMAKERS, WHILE BEYONCE NEW SONGS ( LAST 5 YEARS ) ARE VERY WEAK. XO IS WACK, if that is her her POP LEAD OFF, then RIH HAS WON THE WAR.
WORD ON THE STREET rih is dropping her new single NEXT WEEK. THEY SAY IT IS ROCK JOINT ala the doors. A friend of friend has heard it and nearly threw up in chock of the JIMI HENDRIX SHE SERVING.
When your favorite artist release an album out of nowhere and crash iTunes come holla at me. Stop hatin and support good music and good movements!
She shut everyone down with this. Her critics and haters alike. Now what’s the new shade gonna be, because she certainly aint scared. B**** just took the biggest risk in her whole career. I so have a new found respect. Not only that, but the album itself is incredible. Kudos Beyonce
And to add to that, shes about to have one of the highest grossing Tours. Damn how can you knock her hustle?

sybil bb rlx
Blah blah blah… You said Beyoncé was scared, and she just took the biggest risk in her career, you said her Tour was going to flop, yet she’s outgrossing your fav off her name alone what next are you haters going to be proved wrong on? I can’t wait! *sips tea*
This album is like one big mixtape garbage
Not such a copycat on this one is she LOL??
The world got SLAYED in a way unexpected with this strategy.
Bey doesn’t need to be your fav to know that she came, she saw & she conquered with that surprise!!
You said Rih tour will not make over 100 mill. U said Rih was over cos of Right now flopping ( in all due fairness, it did not have a video ) If she and David Guetta had made a video, it would have slayed. Jump still is ready. I dont think it is a risk, when this LP flops, she will use it as an excuses. She is not outgrossing Rih, she has more dates, than rih, unlike Bey, rih actually HAS NUMBER 1 HITS AND ALBUMS THAT SELL OVER 3.5 MILL, SOMETHING 4 DID NOT DO.
FRAN, RIH IS NUMBER 1 AS WE SPEAK AND HAS 5 HITS ON WW ITUNES CHARTS. * SIPS tea*
FRAN
U FORGETTING THE MOST IMPORTANT FACTOR: RIH IS NUMBER 1 ON BB AND ON POP RADIO. THAT is what it all comes down too. HA.
Well Well Well…
So S****** stans…about that no promo argument. How much you want to bet Beyonce outsold your fave in the first 7 hours with the REAL no-promo-campaign?
@Rih Keeps…. girl Monster has been out, no one gives a f*** about that video like that. It aint gon trend. We know what we’re gonna get from those two. GIRL BYE!
Bey doesn’t need to be your fav to know that she came, she saw & she conquered with that surprise!!
What has she conquered? ARE U SAYING SHE WILL OUTSELL JT AND EM 1ST WEEK SALES? WILL SINGLE OUTSELL LORDE OR WRECKING BALL? UNTILL SHE DOES THAT….SHE HAS NOT CONQUERED NO ONE.
Sybil you seem scared lol. All these comments for someone who is not threat? *sips tea*
The hates are f****** PRESSED. Beyoncé came out of nowhere and she has been shitting all over their fave’s face. I just bought my copy of GODONCÉ.
Rih Keeps…. girl Monster has been out, no one gives a f*** about that video like that. It aint gon trend. We know what we’re gonna get from those two. GIRL BYE!
Monster is NUMBER 1 ON THE OFFICAL USA CHART, AS WELL UK ( it was ) IT IS THE NUMBER 1 SONG ON POP RADIO, U MUST be a ghetto black person, u are bugging out over what TRENDS, BUT I THINK LIKE W WHITE Businessman on on what sells and tops the charts. BEYONCE MAY trend, but she wont top the UK OR USA CHART AND I dont see her topping the French or german chart either. She will trend, then once the payola finishes, she will flop. OOP
People clicking to buy the album cuz it’s so worth it. She about to slay the charts. LMAO. I mean it doesn’t get better than this!
SLAYED MY F***** LIFE
NOW PLAYING – DRUNK IN LOVE
HEY SHITBIRD COME HERE SO I CAN DRAG YOU SOME MORE
Yessssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssss the entire album from the beginning to the end is awesome!! my fave is blow, jealous, Mine feat drake and Partition( especailly partition is my s***)
All you hatin ass b****** who hate on her and have been pressed saying she was “Over” can now take a seat. Beyonce is the KING and just proved it. No one could do what she just did, and she single handedly just changed everything in how music is released and how its all done. I feel bad for other singers now.
ou really do need to take a nap if you cant come to the realization that Music Of The Sun, A Girl Like Me, and Rated are were all FLOPS LOL. Hell! Unapologetic pulled flop numbers despite all of its hit singles smh. So yeah…most of her album
If all those albums flop, what does that make 4? that is beyonce most recent LP AND DO U REALL THINK NEW BEYONCE WILL OUTSELL UNA?
A girl like me sold 4 mill that is more than 4.
UNA IS AT 4 MORE THAN 4
RATED R IS AT 3.5 MORE THAN 3 WHICH SOLD 2.5
MOTS SHE WAS LIKE 17 AND WAS PLATINUM.
Notice u failed to add GGGB, LOUD AND TTT, SO THIS PROVES SHE CAN SELL ALBUMS. SHE HAS SOLD MORE ALBUMS THAN BEYONCE.
This is what I said after seeing the news.
#BadBitch
#GAME CHANGER
#B Rules!
All you hatin ass b****** who hate on her and have been pressed saying she was “Over” can now take a seat. Beyonce is the KING and just proved it. No one could do what she just did, and she single handedly just changed everything in how music is released and how its all done. I feel bad for other singers now
KANYE WEST DONE SOMETHING SIMILAR AND EVERYONE SAYS HE WAS CHANGING THE GAME, AFTER GOOD 1ST WEEK, HE STALLED, CRASHED AND BURNED AND FLOPED. EM AND DRAKE CAME AND BODIED HIM, NOW HIS CAREER IS OVER AND IS MAD.
KANYE DID SOMETHING LIKE TOO.
The reason I got invovled is call y’all came for rih and started to say Rih’s career is over, but, last I checked Rih is full swing with covers, photoshoots and SHE IS NUMBER1, NOT ONLY THAT SHE WAS JUST CROWNED AN ICON FROM TEH AMA, SO F*** U.
I AM WAITING TO SEE WHERE BEYONCE NEW S*** CHARTS.
THE ONLY GOOD SONG ON LP is blow, but that wont be a POP RADIO HIT. POOR DAT.
The trolls BOUGHT the album just to shade Poordat
cold case love>>>>>>>>>>>>beyonce’s whole life.
what time does the itunes update? I wanna where she charts.
MY HEART CAnt handle haahahahah im screaming!!!!!1 nooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooo
Gilberto, Beyhive, Fran and TGJ,
U said this new beyonce LP will END RIH once and for all. WE WILL FIND OUT BY THE END OF TONIGHT IF SHE WILL END RIH.
People are presssssssed LMAO get the f*** outta of here with the hate. She did her thing with this album. It deserves every ounce of attention it’s getting.Even the people at billboards expect this album to do big things. If lovebird,Jer and molly can put down their stan card and give props and then so should everybody else. you look stupid trying to bring up somebody else accomplishments that nobody gives a f*** about right now. Find a Rihanna thread and rant in there.
Beyonce album has no smash hits on it. She is not doing music to have number 1 hits anymore. I love Beyonce’s new album, well this part. People are buzzing there is more. I really want the recorded version of “Standing On The Sun”.
Beyonce voice is not that good in studios for me. Her ghetto Texas accent makes me hate alot of her songs. Beyonce is the best LIVE performer alive.
Rihanna is still unbothered. Her mixture of island accents (which people love) and her pop vocals are so interesting. Thats the reason why she sells huge everywhere. People like her mixture of Island/Ghetto/Pop/R&B (Somtimes) Vocals. Beyonce is not like that. Her voice can be annoying & boring BORING BORING in the studio. Sometimes I enjoy listening to JANET WHISPER JACKSON more than a Beyonce record. BUT Beyonce is the best live.
Overall good album…
*Goes Back To Listening To Janet Jackson’s “Love Scene (Ooh Baby)” song BYE*
OH DEAR, BB has dropped the top tours of 2013 most of beyonce’s shows were not even sold out. Rih only had 3 non sell out, bey had 40 shows not sold out, no wonder, she is extending, tryna to get her numbers up.
5 Rih
140 mill
87 shows
84 sold out winning.
8 – beyonce
104
59 SHOWS
only 40 sold out so of course she is going on tour next year to try and out do rih, but she cant. HER 2013 ONLY MADE 104, while Rih made 140 and sold out to near 99% and that includes stadiums.
I absolute love this album. Her vocals, the quality of the songs, ugh everything. Best album of 2013. In fact its one of the best albums i have listened to a while. She really came back and SERVED. Can’t fault her for chosing quality over quantity. And not everything has to be about Rihanna, I prefer this album to anything Rihanna has put out. Taste is subjective.
The only cute song is drunk in love…everything else is garbage……where is the monumental….her scary ass would wait until everyone released. but the album is all over the place….pretty hurts and drunk in love are the only songs radio worthy
Enough Oniaka,
U said Bey has shut rih down. NO WAY! BB has dropped the big tours of 2013 and RIH COMES IN AT 4, WHILE BEY IS AT 8. RIH HAD ONLY 3 SHOWS NOT SELL OUT, BEYONCE HAD 40 SHOWS WHICH DID NOT SELL OUT. There is no way BEY CAN SHUT RIH DOWN NOW. HOW?
SHE HAS 4 BIGGEST TOUR OF 2013
\SHE WWAS NAMED AN ICON BY AMA
SHE IS NUMBER 1 ATM
STAY WAS HUGE SMASH
UNA CROSSED 4 MILL THIS YEAR
CLOTHING LINE AND MAKEUP LINE SOLD OUT
HOW THE F*** CAN BEYONCE TOP HER NOW?
BEY SHOULD OF SHUT HER DOWN IN 2006. THAT WAS HER BEST CHANCE.ANything after 2006 was impossible for bey.
Super Cisus thats dumb because you’re still adding to her bank account and chart position by doing that lol.
The album is boring, uninspiring trash. Don’t like a single song on it. Sorry, better luck next time Bey.
Navy STOP IT! Beyonce did THAT… end of story!!! I think it’s a great body of work, and the random release was genius. The internet and GP are going nuts. Congrats to Bey and the hive for finally getting an album!
Buuuuuttttt we all know Rih is in the studio cooking up some slayage. R8 is on it’s way. 2014 just wait on it! *in my Drake voice*
Purchased. The only album worthy of my coins by a main pop girl so far. This is brilliant, quality. I loved it all.
noooooooooooooooooooooooooooo THE WORD ON STREETS IS THAT RIH HAS BOOKED A 3RD AMERICAN VOGIE COVER. WHAT OFSLAYGE IS THIS>?
Sybil bably Bey’s tour is heading towards $250 million ww if not 300, what are you trying to drag………
And no one said she was ending Rihanna’s career, it’s exactly the opposite. Rihanna stans claim “she’s killed Beyonce’s career that she no longer dares to release music”, but hours later you have iTunes servers crashing down and the lead singles don’t even come out until next week …..
Now please calm your saggy p**** and titties down and shut the f*** up.
YOU HAVE LOST!
Her songs have been trending all night and all day. She’s broken the internet. Again.
The reason why I clapped back was they came for rih, but rih is on course shut bey done . WORD ON DA STREET IS SHE BOOKED A 3RD AMERICAN VOGUE COVER. SAM, THE WEB DOES NOT WKR.
Honey you need to calm down. You’ve written around 30 comments.
I LOOKED AT THE CHART FOR 2013 AND JON BON JOVI WAS NUMBER1. BEUONCE WAS NOWHERE NEAR. U HAVE LOST
RIH IS SHOOTING HER 3RD AMERICAN VOGUE COVER, WHICH WILL MAKE HER TEH 1ST VBBLACK WOAN IN HISTORY TO TO HAVE 3 VUSA VOGUES IN HISTORY
H2O,
RIH IS WINNING. HER TOUR IS NUMBER 5 ON BILLBOARD LIST AND UNA, HER LP IS NUMBER 10 ON THE END OF YEAR CHART, EVEN THOUGH IT CAME OUT LAST YEAR. NOT TO MENTION SHE BROKE THE NUMBER 1 RECORD WITH 13 NUMBER 1, PLUS SHE IS RUMORED TO BE SHOOTINF HER 3RD USA COVER, WHICH BEYONCE HAS NEVER DONE. 3 VOGUE COVERS IN 2 YEARS? WHEN WILL BEYONCE?
NOT TO MENTION SHE HAS HER SURE FIRE SMASH WITH SHAKIRA, AND SHE HAS ALREADY SHOT AUSTRALIAN VOGUE, AND SHE GOES TO BRAZIL TO SHOOT VOGUE, SEE, with beyonce, vogue just recycle teh same old USA shoot, but with RIH THEY FLY AND SHOOT bramd new covers, cos VOGUE KNOW SHE IS LEGEND AND HUGE SELLER, MORE THAN BEYONCE.
HER NEW SINGLE IS ROCK KIMI HENDRIX AND IT DROPS NEXT WEEK. SO BEYONCE AINT WINNING S***.
Blow, Rocket and Blue are my top 3. I love this album.

@Sybil stop lying
Beyoncé earns the No. 1 Hot Tours ranking with $44.9 million in box office grosses from her fall tour through cities in Latin America and Australia, taking the Mrs. Carter Show world tour past the $100 million mark in box office sales since launching in April. The overall gross from the ongoing tour is $104.3 million from more than 883,000 sold tickets at 59 performances, based on box office stats reported to Billboard. Kicking off on April 15 in Serbia, the tour played 23 venues in Europe and 24 in North America through the end of August before beginning tour legs in Latin America and Australia in early September.
The revenue reported this week comes from 19 concerts during the fall trek of the pop star’s world tour. Kicking off a five-city swing through Brazil on Sept. 8, Beyoncé performed in stadiums to begin her South American jaunt. The São Paulo market produced the best attendance among the Brazilian stadiums with more than 37,000 tickets purchased at Estádio do Morumbi. In October and November, the tour traveled Down Under to play six arenas in Australia and New Zealand, wrapping on Nov. 9 in Perth. The top-grosser was a run of four shows at Sydney’s Allphones Arena with $9.4 million (US$) in box office revenue. The four-night stand (Oct. 31-Nov. 3) was the arena’s highest-grossing concert engagement this year, topping box office revenue from multiple performances by P!nk, Bruce Springsteen and One Direction, among others.
Keeping it in the family, husband Jay Z joins Beyoncé on the Hot Tours recap, taking the No. 6 ranking from ticket sales at two venues on the European leg of his Magna Carta world tour that kicked off in early October. This week’s tally includes $6.8 million in revenue from arena dates in London and Zürich. In London he played four nights at the O2 Arena (Oct. 10-12, 14) with the number of sold tickets just under 57,000. Zürich’s Hallenstadion drew more than 10,000 fans to see the Grammy-winning rapper during his trek through 12 European cities that wrapped at the end of October.
Rihanna takes the second slot on this week’s Hot Tours tally with sales reported from the final nine weeks of her Diamonds world tour that ended on Nov. 15. The fall tour covered cities on four continents beginning in Asia with two sellouts at the CotaiArena. Located in the Chinese territory of Macau, the 15,000-seat arena logged an attendance total of 24,872 from performances on Sept. 13 and 14. Concerts in six cities in Australia and New Zealand followed including a three-show stint in Auckland with more than 33,000 tickets sold for sellouts on Oct. 6-8.
Sold out stadium shows in South Africa drew over 67,000 fans to Johannesburg on Oct. 13 and 40,000 to Cape Town three days later. Abu Dhabi and Tel Aviv were next on the schedule before the Diamonds tour returned to the Western Hemisphere for shows in the Dominican Republic and Puerto Rico.
200-250K. IF SHE’S LUCKY LOL
For an album that took a year and a half, majority of the songs are fillers…the album still has no direction. Moreover wasnt the visual clips Ciaras move in the first place…..? Is it me or is she just that same tired thief. drunk in love is so rihanna in visual and song…been there done that….
Beyonces Tour is not even over.
@Rihboy its you.
@Kelly
Calm down babe, we all know what magic Rihanna can create in the studio but this Beyonce album is fantastic, you can’t deny that.
@Sybil you’re not good at math are you Beyonce grossed over 100 mill from just 59 dates counted so far. She’s still winning.
The inflation though, $250 million? I’ll remember that one H2O

Beyoncé slaying^^^^ Pink has almost double the dates and is only 47 mill ahead. Beyoncé at 59 dates is already over 100. Shes coming for 200 mill.
I cant with all this Beyonce slayage right now.
But Pink sold out more dates, not the fake tea the hive were spilling about MCS being sold out when it’s not.
Um… she did something like this with B-Day the Video Anthology
I’ve heard most of it now and so far the highlights are “XO”, “No Angel” and the second part of “Haunted” (the video is heaven!)
I’m glad Jer and Lovebird liked it, I was so not expecting that. I’m waiting for Pop’s opinion/review.
And Beyoncé still grossing more. Which makes it the more successful Tour.
Off no music…
Well, now theres music 🙂
19 shows not sold out when the hive were lying about the tour being sold out.
And now we are being told $250 million?? I’ll wait.
top albums of 2013, according billbioard. has UNA AT 10 AND THE ONLY BLACK. NO ONE IS F****** WITH RIH.
I love this album. Its everything. I really hope this means she is performing it on the new UK leg. I will be going regardless.
Blue is so cute.
pure crap songs
I am considered a ‘haater’ although I am not, I listened to a few songs and they sounded good. She sonds like she is finally evolving and using her voice differently in a more controlled manner. Now I still think she and Jay can do more with their influence but good job so far.
Shes #1 and #4 on iTunes!
GIVE UP HATERS #1 IN 25 COUNTRIES SO FAR AND SHE AINT GLOBAL?? B**** PLEASE
Bey & Rih will go HEAD TO HEAD at the 2015 Grammys
THIS. WILL. BE. EPIC.
Happy to see Beyonce at number 1 again, finally.
However all this is making me feel sorry for Gaga and all the money she wasted to promote Chartflop, all the hype and the fact that she thought Chartflop was going to be a major game changer and it did nothing but flopped hard. Everyone hated it including the critics, poor her.
Beyonce’ beesh you gave me life. Y’all get into BLOW. Hell the whole Cd is good.
I’m sorry but these songs are just too bland even for Beyonce’s standards. It kind of reminds me of “4” only worse. At least with “4” it was lyrically and vocally solid even though the sound was very dated. This album is just a mess all around with the lyrics, vocals, and sound. The lyrics are very basic, the sound is just a random mess, even her vocals are not up to par like they usually are. However, I will say that at least she tried something new so congrats on that.
After a stealth Thursday evening (9 p.m PT) release, Beyoncé’s self-titled fifth solo studio set is likely headed towards a No. 1 debut on the Billboard 200 when that chart’s top 10 is revealed on Wednesday, Dec. 18.
The iTunes exclusive “visual” album, retailing for $15.99, contains 14 tracks — not available for a la carte purchases until Dec. 20 — and 14 accompanying videos, along with other bonus video content. As of this morning, no set date has been announced for the CD release to physical retailers or of its availability on other digital download sites.
In just a three-hour sales window (closing at midnight Friday PT), “Beyoncé” reportedly sold over 80,000 copies, according to industry sources. It’s still too early to judge what the set will do over the full three days left in the sales tracking week (which ends Sunday night), but with prior projected leader, “Blame It All On My Roots: Five Decades Of Influences” by Garth Brooks, estimated to shift 150,000-160,000 units, Beyoncé is already halfway that sum. And in the time it would take someone to fly from New York to Miami.
The album release was so heavily guarded, that reportedly only a dozen or so members of her Sony Records family even were aware of the set being pushed to iTunes yesterday evening.
Beyoncé’s last studio set “4” sold 310,000 in its debut week in July of 2011, but that was with a full sales week and a marketing/media push leading up to the release. It is an interesting commentary on the influence of social media in today’s world if “Beyoncé” can come close to that sum with just social buzz driving the project instead of weeks of traditional media promotion normally part of the album release playbook.
Stay tuned to billboard.com as we track “Beyoncé’s” sales over the course of the weekend and predict where the album will land, both in units and in rank, when the top of the Billboard 200 chart is revealed on Wednesday, Dec. 18.
Beyonce outsold Ciara in just three hours so I don’t wanna see the C Squad in here shading.
As a Navy Fan I can put away my stan card and honestly say that, Beyoncé ain’t playing no games! 2014 is going to be quite a year for Mrs.Knowles. With that being said Rihanna BETTER bring it with Album 8 and I hope this serves as motivation for next era cause lets be honest R7 was a sloppy era :/ I’m guessing Rihanna got the memo lol don’t worry! I’m sure Rihanna will have the summer on lockdown!
I didn’t say it has made $250 million, I said it’s heading towards $250 million for now. Stop dragging me for every word I say.
Anybody got an extra straitjacket laying around somewhere or an extra bottle of Prozac for that lunatic Rihanna botstan who since the wee hrs of the morning has posted like 50 incoherent messages, rambling on like a crackhead? lol
Would Rihanna even find it cute that somebody is on the Internet using her name to act like this much of a goon?
Clearly you’re threatened by the hype that Beyoncé’s new album has generated and are somewhere literally cracking up over it. I imagine you’re somewhere shaking like a leaf with tears in your eyes. You’re so desperate to halt what you can’t control that it’s literally eating you up alive. What kind of chemical imbalance where you born with?
Oh well, that’s your aneurysm.
Not a Bey fan but homegirl done changed the game FOREVER!
Go ahead mama. My ass cant even hate.
WTF IS THIS MESS WHO SHE TRYNA BE RIHANNA? THIS S*** IS A FOOOKING HOT MESS WERES THE STAND OUT SINGLES? THIS IS GONNA DO GOOD UPTO JAN THEN AFTER THE HOLIDAYS WATCH IS FADE AWAY
BORING WACK ASS ALBUM IF MY FAVE DROPPED THIS MESS ID DROP THE STANNING
BORING
I’m sorry but I have to agree with you. They’re overhyping this album. She has matured a bit music wise, but I just can’t quite get into this album. You have to remember that there are a lot of B stans and undercover stans on this so of course they find this album “stellar”. I like a few songs on the albums but the rest sound like ghetto filler music. She cannot afford to flop this era and I’m a GP music buyer so I’m not sure if people will want to go out and buy this album but we’ll have to wait and see, but she’ll be lucky to go double platinum. Gags hasn’t seen platinum yet I can guarantee lol.
Except for the trying to be Rihanna part. Beyoncé is Beyoncé and Rihanna is well Rihanna!
I see haters trying to talk themselves off a ledge, but there really is nothing you can say to derail it. If you can’t embrace reality then you may as well just log off the Internet and find something else to do for the rest of the year, because all this Beyoncé slayage is GOING to continuing being the talk of the web for a while.
BEYONCÉ is #1 in 72 countries, WHOS THE FLOP NOW??
Who cares??? The fact that she is getting richer doesn’t affect me !!! They have millions how much money do they need???? Including their child in one of the songs is just cheesy … Damn. Who cares about their baby singing??? No one cares.
I see Mother already has everyone banished into the eternal darkness of a blackhole yal are so PRESSEDTTT
That list says 59 shows but Beyonce posted they just did their 100th show.
Hmm
Yaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaawn……..wack as hell! Album already leaked! I know ya’ll going to try to rip me…so FAWK ALL YA’LL BEYAWNCE WORSHIPPING AZZEZ!
since this is part1 i think she keeps her uptempo-dance songs for next year. i only heard a few songs so far but many songs seem mid tempo and very sexual. i wait for a physical copy
For Beyoncé fans who happened to be awake in the wee hours of Friday the 13th, Christmas came early this year–in the form of a surprise album by the superstar singer.
The self-titled visual album was released exclusively via iTunes as a complete download for $15.99; individual songs will be available starting December 20th. The list of collaborators on Beyoncé features a who’s-who of the music business, including Pharrell Williams, Justin Timberlake, Drake, Timbaland, Frank Ocean, Michelle Williams, Kelly Rowland and, of course, Jay Z.
With so many high-profile names attached to the project, it’s a small miracle that nothing leaked in advance of the launch, but Beyoncé runs a tight ship.
“I’m never satisfied,” she told FORBES in a 2009 cover story, adding: “I’m sure sometimes it’s not easy working for me … I’ve never met anyone that works harder than me in my industry.”
Indeed, she’s already played 97 shows on her Mrs. Carter World Tour this year–and, in combination with the buzz for her new album, that could catapult her to the most lucrative year of her already storied career. FORBES calculates earnings on the half-year, meaning that the scoring period for 2014 will run from June 2013 to June 2014.
Beyoncé is already scheduled for 83 shows during that span, and that’s not counting additional bookings that could fill up April and May. She’s currently grossing over $2 million per city, according to Pollstar. Factoring in merchandise sales at her sold-out shows, that means she’s likely taking home somewhere around $1 million per night–if not more–before paying out agents, managers and Uncle Sam.
Those sorts of touring numbers alone should be enough to equal Beyoncé’s best years to date, her twin peaks of $87 million in both 2009 and 2010. Factor in endorsements with Pepsi and H&M, in addition to her other ventures and record sales, and she should easily double the $53 million she made this year. She’ll also challenge for music’s earnings crown, which went to Madonna at $125 million for 2013.
As for the new album, it’s too early for sales numbers. But there’s at least one indicator that points to success: in 12 hours, Beyoncé has already garnered half as many reviews on iTunes as Katy Perry’s PRISM and one-third as many as Lady Gaga’s ARTPOP. Both albums sold about a quarter of a million copies in their opening weeks.
Furthermore, Beyoncé’s strategy of selling her album as a whole for the first week–rather than allowing fans to buy songs a la carte–could prove incredibly valuable. Before the digital revolution in music, that was the status quo, and it led to platinum opening weeks for scores of artists who’d now be lucky to sell a third of that over the life of an entire album.
Her idea also hearkens back to the example of another top-earning superstar: Michael Jackson. In a video explaining why she decided to release a video for every song on her album, Beyoncé recalls watching the short film for “Thriller” with her family and being inspired.
Slayonce has been unleashed
every song in that tracklist slays
this is a game changing and brilliant concept! Bey and her team are playing no games! #impressive
Omg yall im so mad im at work and I cant even listen to the album. I know my hive members got their lives cant wait to get mines!!!!!

the 4 album is a master piece to this disaster
LOL HDD:200-250K
THAT’S SLAYAGE? LOL
that’s good that she got everyone surprised (like me). But a true fan of bee can only say “I’m sad that talented people like beyonce do not want to make music anymore”. Good luck with your success bee.
With THREE days of sales and no physical copy, yes it is.

@MOLLY S*** don’t Come for me Unless I send for your ass.
@Lovebird: Thanks. 😀
HIVE lets just remember what happened to the monsters when ARTPOP was ‘the album of the mileneum’ and she was gonna sell 1m first week blah blah. Let’s learn from others mistakes
But the songs are really good. I like pretty hurts, drunk on love, and ghost. I know itunes making MASSSSSIVE coin off this album. Google play is seethingggg
The Hive can celebrate their fav just like you celebrate urs. Lady Gaga said it was the album of the millenium Beyonce has never said anything of the sort. Tf outta here.
No lead single, no promo and she has better forst week sales than girls who are force fed to is. Not bad for someone who’s career is supposed to be over.
Seriously dude wtf is wrong with you , why you hatin on Gagas daily , stop talking about her you talk about her on every effin post SHUT UP , don’t act like you even like Beyoncé you just mad she bombed on your fav , you just stan for whomever slays the charts seriously get a life instead of hatin on international popstars don’t you have something better to do than hide behind your laptop and yap about how much you hate this and that. PATHETIC
Um @lovebirdsstalker I never said I didn’t like bey. And she didn’t bomb my fave in any way. My fave is sittin @ #1 on the charts unbothered.
@LOL, That’s a LIE, HDD did not put a 250K cap on her sales due to the unique method of release. They have no idea how high the sales will be they are just predicting that it will be more than 200K in the first 3 days.
AMAZING ALBUM!!!
Honestly I can see why the hive loves this album, they’ve been neglected for so long. It’s sad actually. This album is ok at best. Won’t do big numbers
Is guess that’s why its already more critically acclaimed than any Rihanna album?^^^^
I can’t at people acting like its only the Hive going mad for this album yet its #1 everywhere and got everyone stanning from haters (see above comments) to celebs.
Cling on to the 85 while you can, the album only has 7 reviews so far, it has many more to go.
90/100 by billboard too. I only care about the important reviews m’dear and whatever these reviews are suggesting so far… The album is more than ‘ok’. The Hive aint stanning for ‘ok’.
Ok we’ll see what happens when the sales come out next week Hun.
But we’re not talking about sales hun.
I read a newspaper which said “Within hours, hundreds of fans slammed the star’s record for its X-rated lyrics and ‘pornographic’ videos in which she twerks and dresses scantily”
She’s no better then Miley or Rihanna.. she’s just used p*** to sell her music…
and you can hate on Taylor Swift in reply to this comment, but at least she isn’t degrading herself, just to sale a few more Cd’s
@TAYLOR SWIFTS NUMBER 1 FAN!!!
No one cares!!!! The album was PRAISED by critics!!! CRITICALLY AND UNIVERSALLY ACCLAIMED B****! So dont nobody care about dat!!!
YAS
and you can hate on Taylor Swift in reply to this comment, but at least she isn’t degrading herself, just to sale a few more Cd’s
________________________________
Ummm this cant be coming from a Taylor Swift fan. Beyonce is in her 30’s….she is married. So if she talkin bout f*****, its because she’s f***** her HUSBAND. This is the appropriate age to be raunchy. And if these “alleged” fans are upset, they have 9 other amazing songs to listen to. GTFOH
Taylor has slept with how many dudes? And has been getting dragged for being a s***. No I dont expect Taylor to sing about s** YET, because she’s still catering to little kids.
Lets not act like Beyonce doesn’t have the talent. Ppl been singing about s** since before the 60’s…. And clearly we know Taylor is f***** a bunch of dudes… I guess you’re giving her credit because she doesn’t sing about what a s*** she is…. chile
I think Taylor is cool…. but cmon son
It’s not a question of being married, and being able to talk about s**…. i’m talking about her pornographic videos.. I thought she was suppose to be cut above the Miley cyrus’s and the Rihanna’s who uses sexual images of themselve to sell music…
“And clearly we know Taylor is f***** a bunch of dudes…” How do you know this? You obviously don’t, you’re merely jumping on the bandwagon, and following what others have said.. what Taylor does in her personal life is different to her professional life.
Solid album. Beyonce try somethin new.
KING B
she is not the first person to release an album without any notice or releasing singles….this broad has zero originality about her
beyonce must not be as stupid as thought..she knew if she release the album on Itunes her dumb ass stans has to buy the full album for the full price….
ahahahahahahhahahahahah…dead at her trying to be different, when other people have already done the same damn thing
The haters are clearly mad because Beyoncé just took a LARGE S*** all over their fave’s relevancy right now!
See Rihanna fans having meltdowns and writing essays on the true QUEEN! Fact is Rihanna has her own thing going as well but is NOWHERE near Bey’s level, and THAT’S ALRIGHT. They have VERY DIFFERENT aspirations right now.
Just give credit where it’s due #RESPECTTHAT #BOWDOWNB****** 😀
“she is not the first person to release an album without any notice…”
Seeing as the girl in your pic does it all the time, I have to agree- unfortunately
beyonce is not above rihanna..yall delusional stans needs to hop off beyonces fake ass, and stop trying to act like the bish is above and beyond her peers..
the bish is selling naked ass just like rihannna and so call people who has zero talent…the only difference between rihanna and beyonce, is that beyonce has a better voice(she’s no vocalist)
and she can dance (same moves since 1996)
when I say beyonce is basic as hell, she is basic as hell..this is the same woman who claimed she would never take her clothes off for anybody….yea ok thats why she’s always half naked now..
same woman who claimed being gay was not christian like..now that the majority of her fans are gay, suddenly she loves gay people..
and her dumb ass stans talking about her naked ass is being classy but rihanna who doest have a child or married, she’s a w**** for doing the same damn thing beyonce does…get the f*** out of here
like is said she sold her album on itunes only because she knew her dumb ass stans were going to buy the album at full price…
just like her ass released a calendar for $15…pics that we all seen before..because she knows her dumb ass stans would buy her crap
the joke is on them..watching them..o my god, king bey, your fav would never, she’s snatch all your favs wigs…ahahahahahahahahahahahahahah
these idiots are getting played and they’re too stupid to realize it…
Lol the Diamonds premiere broke records on TGJ. 1200+ comments. I’m surprised this one doesn’t even have 500 comments.
The album is dope and the videos make the songs better. Rihanna is unbothered though sweetie pies. Her and Em are sitting pretty atop BB100.
God bless.
Lol @ Rated Pressed.
You talking about hits we’re talking about the music. Name a lesson you learned listening to a Rihanna album?
LUVVVVVV THIS ALBUM!I’m happy about my purchase!
Beyonce’s self-titled surprise release, which hit iTunes exclusively on Thursday evening (9 p.m. PT), has now sold over 430,000 units in just over one day, guaranteeing it the top slot on the Billboard 200 once that chart’s top 10 is revealed mid-week.
As reported yesterday, “Beyonce” shifted slightly over 80,000 in the three hours from 9 p.m. PT to midnight on Thursday evening, putting her Friday sales at roughly 350,000. With two more days left in the sales tracking week, the title could sell over 600,000 before the buzzer sounds.
The iTunes exclusive “visual” album, retailing for $15.99 contains 14 tracks- not available for a la carte purchases until Dec. 20- and 14 accompanying videos, along with other bonus video content. No set date has been announced for the CD release to physical retailers or of its availability on other digital download sites.
At 430,000, “Beyonce” is already set to become the biggest debuting album by a female artist since Taylor Swift sold an astounding 1.2 million copies of “Red” in the week corresponding to Billboard 200 chart dated Nov 10, 2012. And if predictions in the 600,000 range hold, the set would grant Beyonce the best debut week- and best sales week period- of her career. Her 2006 album “B’day” started with 541,000 in September 2006.

Lol^^ the lame excuses are back
gals gals all u otherbitches should know that its over ok? she just did it whether you like her music videos etc or not but u must admit thats only about beyonce now not katty not gaga not rih just her. she really builded an empire as it seems;) go cry somewhere else stupidity is not good:)
Wow ok TGJ has not been working for me for the last 3 or 4 days so let me tell you I knew this sudden release was happening but I´ve not left one single comment or watched any single video or heard any single song. So I don´t know if the album is even good. And everybody knows I´m not into Beyonce.
But let me tell you: she SLAYED. Firstly this was the best imaginable way to release this album at this point of her career. She was needing something truly different. Secondly, from what I´m quickly reading (don´t have time to catch up with all the posts) she is slaying commercially. It seems she´ll have one of those truly huge first week sales everywhere, including the USA. I mean, one of those Rihanna, Milye or Katy and the rest of the talentless lessors will never have. Thirdly, let me tell you I can only imagine the meltdowns that have been happening for the last few days. Like I´ve already said, I´m not going to read all these posts and comments. But I can only imagine the anger, the hate, the pathetic reactions from this sad no lives haters who always hate on clearly bigger artists than those who they stan for. I´m especially thinking about @TROLLBIRD. I mean, that must have been the most shocking moment of the year here on TGJ. On time before 2013 ends LOL
she might be slaying now.. but who knows maybe she will suffer a big drop in sales like next week due to her releasing everything at once.. and + the songs are nothing special whats selling this album right now is her name, so please stop the exaggeration.
I agree with @NIcki is Queen
Go B…itch
@Nicki is Queen, we shall see. Remember she hasn’t even released the physical copies copies yet.
Whether or not she suffers a sales drop, shes already slammed all her doubts in every day way.
every way*
