By way of sales pulled in from their material, capital generated on stage and public profiles celebrated by the general public, Beyonce, Rihanna and Nicki Minaj stand as today’s leading ladies of colour in Pop music.
Fact, not conjecture.
Now, as the latter two continue to work on new material for their forthcoming new albums, the chart-slaying trio will no doubt be pleased to learn that the impact they make on Pop music globally hasn’t gone unnoticed, with all three earning spots on the UK’s ‘Top 100 Most Downloaded Tracks of all Time’ tally!
Find out how they fared below…
Congrats to Rihanna and the others.
and queen Bey sits in her throne unbothered gazing at her TIME magazine MOST INFLUENTIAL PEOPLE COVER! I highly doubt itunes/download SINGLES positions even matter to her. Atleast her name appears twice on the list,regardless of position,it’s still a lot more than some girls i won’t mention(til provoked).
SHE LOOKS LIKE A FRIGGIN CRACK W**** ON THE COVER OF TIME. SHE IS JEALOUS OF LUPITA. HEY HIVE: YOUR ‘QUEENY’ IS A S****’!.
how the f*** is she jealous of Lupita when she already covered People’s most beautiful edition back in 2012? are you forgetting? haha. seethe. Yes,I agree the cover was not her best shot in the shoot,but she still looks good and the main point is she made the cover that your favs cane only dream about making!

3 overrated b****** especially Icki Garbaj.
Your jealousy is showing a bit sis. Where is Ciara’s name on the list tho? I’ll wait….
Jealous over b****** who buy there own records? i think not.
@Molly nicki does not buy her own records! Reciepts
Congrats to the girls!
My iTunes library needs new music!!!!!
Beyonce album is played out, and I need new beats Immediately!!!!
Its almost Summer, I need to start feeling it!!! I need more leading ladies to start releasing out the ass!!
That bey album got played out 2 weeks after i bought it. Cant wait for new Ciara music
Uhmm Beyonce was #87 while Rihanna was #7 and had like 4 other songs before Bey. LMAO
#Pressed
Hit a nerve?
My bad. I read your comment incorrectly. I thought you were shading Rihanna. #sorry . Proceed…
This is the first time I have ever commented on this site, though I have regularly followed it for few years. Over the years I have noticed a heavy swaying of all news reportage towards some artists, and against some others. Seeing the way people ‘come for’ and ‘drag’ each other over opinions and comments has stopped me from ever putting up my own opinion, but I now feel I must.What you have said is also something that was glaring on the list. Though Rihanna’s name appeared on the list several times before Beyonce (whose name appeared just once), the headline would make one believe that Beyonce was leading the pack. While I adore both ladies,I question whether my beloved ‘thatgrapejuice’ is not turning into a pro-Beyonce fansite, rather than staying true to reporting relevant music news :-/
her name appeared twice,Beyonce thatis,but proceed…
YASS congrats ladies and @molly stay pressed GURL
Never pressed babe.
Congrats to all three. But especially Beyonce & Rihanna! So happy for them.
Explains why TGJ decided to post a link rather than the full list. SMH
Congrats are in order for these music Queens.
Nicki is no music queen. You damn tried it!
B**** please, what is Mariah? Oh that’s right a has been ass b****
Mariah is more then icki will ever be
Death at bey behind nicki and rih i thought bey was king?
Wheres ciara?
^^^^^^^
T*********’s music is s***!! Rude Boy slays any thiefyonce hoodrat anthem
Top black girls in the game.
Not Bey being down at the bottom of the list. Girl….
Right?
Mariah is a legend. Nicki is a peasant who flopped on her second album.
But sis, where is Mariah’s name on the list? facts don’t lie…
What about the good sis Ciara? did anyone spot her name on the list anywhere? her last stan seems to think it has a valid opinion on anyone relevant.
@Futureciara and @molly stop your embarrassing yourselves
Not cute.
I agree… But your fave is still a lesser.
Be sure to buy Mimi’s album in when it comes out. We already know it will flop but just be ready cuz you will get dragged.
Who gon’ drag me boo?
All the posters on this damn site! You spew way to much venom with your hating ass
Why is Rihanna is all up and down this chart and Beyonce is at 87 and 99. Barely on the effing list! But she supposed to be superior? Ha!
LOL DEAD @ LOCALYONCE BEING AT THE BOTTOM OF THE LIST, WHILE THE ICON RIHANNA IS ALL OVER THE PLACE LOL
#THATRIHANNAIMPACT
I’m telling you, there’s no wifi by the laundramats that 80% of beyonce’s fan bases hang out at hence the t***** being near the bottom of the barrel
If Rihanna made a compilation of all her #1s with one or two new songs like Mariah did, that would absolutely destroy the charts
Haha not the flopga having 3 songs in the top 40 of this list and t********* in the bottom 10
I find it funny how Someone like you outsold Rolling in the deep in the UK and vice versa in America. It shows the difference in musical taste between the two countries
10 years ago it was the other way around. All this EDM crap is from the UK. Just like the US was full of jazz, rock and soul until the Beatles aka the Roaches came over. Boy band alway make it big in the UK before the US as well. So no, we just get all the UK shits ever once in a while.
That’s not Skyfall meant, silly h**. Reading and comprehension clearly aren’t your strong points.
Congratz to Beyonce,Rihanna and Nicki.
@Mark111 iBeyonce doesn’t need singles stats to make her seem superior or solidify her status like your fav needs Huffington Posg said it best:
‘Beyoncé landed at the top of the TIME 100, TIME Magazine’s annual list most influential people. Hailed as the first “Titan” mentioned and the issue’s cover star, Beyoncé was lauded for breaking all the rules in the music biz and championing women’s rights to lead.
In keeping with TIME’s tradition of casting cultural icons to write affectionate blurbs about the honorees, LeanIn.org founder Sheryl Sandberg wrote the ode to Beyoncé. “Beyoncé doesn’t just sit at the table. She builds a better one,” she wrote.
Beyoncé’s whirlwind 2013 centered around dropping her self-titled LP in complete secrecy in December. She ran a sold out Mrs. Carter Show world tour, was a full-time mom and became the leading voice in support of women in pop culture and music. “Her answer to the question, What would you do if you weren’t afraid? appears to be ‘Watch me. I’m about to do it,'” Sandberg wrote. “Then she adds, ‘You can, too.'”
Her husband Jay Z was labeled a “Titan” last year and former New York City mayor Michael Bloomberg sang his praises, adding, “He even put a ring on Beyoncé.” The couple is set to continue music domination and will embark on a major summer tour together, the Mr. And Mrs. Carter Tour.
Bey also nabbed a spot on the list last year, where she was then labeled as an “Icon.” In the article written by director Baz Lurhmann, he complimented her work ethic and warmth. “When Beyoncé does an album, when Beyoncé sings a song, when Beyoncé does anything, it’s an event, and it’s broadly influential,” he wrote. “Right now, she is the heir-apparent diva of the USA — the reigning national voice.”
Only a year later and Beyoncé is no one’s heir-apparent. She’s pop music’s queen.
Save the essay Hun. #ZeroFucksGiven
Its not an essay its an article and no one asked you to read it so why are you here?
Your fault for posting it while I’m present. Next.
Ok and? Who are you?
LOL I WONDER HOW MUCH PER WORD JAY Z PAID FOR THAT ARTICLE LOL
WHY CAN’T THIS H0 GET A HIT OR SELL PAST 3 MILLION IF SHE’S A TITAN? LOL
Is that all you people can say when you can’t find a logical response? Its getting boring. Beyonce has sold past 3 million. Its over the 3 million mark so what are you talking about?
Lmao I stopped at single stats…b**** nobody got time for that long ass scroll..king Bey should be slaying Rihanna in all formats including singles sales if she is all that
What formats is she slaying her at? Its not albums, not Touring, not acclaim so what is it?
Rihanna is the most watched artist on YouTube, has the most followers, she has the most Vogue covers, biggest selling singles, both of their album sales are average..beyugly doesn’t sell big numbers… her tour is huge right now but look how long it took her to get her biggest tour…Rihanna is 26 years old.Bey she have.more views than Rihanna if she is that big.
Death. Slaying everything worth less than $2.
My point exactly. Beyonce only released her SECOND album on her 26th birthday of course rihanna will have more to her name. Navy logic smh.
LMAO. The logic you people use to measure success. Im so happy that Rihanna has a few singles and features on a list of digital downloads. The fact that Rihanna has MORE songs and MORE albums as she saturates herself in the market. You do know that people TURN DOWN magazine covers clearly Rihanna needs all the cash she can get. And with allllll of this, she still has not outsold Beyonce in the ALBUM arena; keep those $1.29 hoop dreams going. How has Beyonce already outsold Unapologetic… lol. Just understand and accept that no matter how many video views or singles downloaded and albums NOT purchased. Beyonce is still going to best Rihanna in the areas that really matter. Let’s pray Rihanna can get a SECOND #1 album out of 8 or wont have to cancel tour dates this time around.
http://www.starrfresh.wordpress.com
Rihanna has more entries on that list than those other two LOCAL whores.
FLOPtition tumbling down the charts faster than FLOP coast whilst looking ass flop failing to chart anywhere.
Lol only Rihanna fans find this kind of thing impressive. *Exits posts*
Beyonce doesn’t need singles and yet she roles them out per album like a Nicki Minaj wig collection (she’s getting sued for this lmao).
The ONLY reason the hive try to shade Rihanna based on singles success is because BEYONCE CANNOT GET A HIT (she’s been trying for 6 years now).
Drunk In Love was a hit though.
Hit?? Drunk in flop had no impact WW…
No impact WW parois france drake concert if that is not impact… https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=wt-wHrN5k-o
I like how you snuck that lawsuit in there!!!
Kiiii
Rihanna – 6 entries
Adele – 4 entries
Lady Gaga – 3 entries
Katy Payola – 3 entries
Beyoncé – 2 entries
Nicki Minaj – 1 entire
DEATH!! Nicki and Beyonce at the bottom as usual. #Lessers
And since we are on the UK, how many 1 million+ selling albums does Beyonce have there? Rihanna has 3 (LOUD, TTT, GGGB).
In fact LOUD is nearing the 2 million sold mark,
Dangerously In Love and I am Sasha Fierce have both sold 1+ million in the UK.
Rihanna has 4/7 while Beyonce has 2/5 SAME RATIO mathmetician.
DIL was released in 2003 though. Next..
And?
You Beyonce Stans always talking about others using “past receipts” yet here you are doing the same. #TheStruggle
He asked how many 1+ million albums she has and I gave an answer so wtf does being in the past have to with anything?
Drunk in love was a hit where? In the ghetto clubs of Houston maybe but certainly not anywhere else. Are you counting streams now?
I’m talking about a REAL HIT.
umm,the song was number 2 on Billboard,it charted higher than R****’s second single from Unflop (Stay) so yeah,it was definitely a hit in the UNITED STATES OF AMERICA. it was in the top 5 in South Africa,Lebanon,Belgium and Australia as well as top 10 in France,Ireland,New Zealand and the UK so let’s not….
It’s Kill A Bey Stan day again. Lol
Whag do you want F** some pom poms to go with that cheerleading?
Why is this b**** going off. Beyonces UK stats are fine didn’t she sell like almost 200,000 tickets in just LONDON.
And she doesn’t need to churn out 7 albums like wild fire to add to quantity.
Gurl read, I asked how many 1 million+ selling albums does Beyonce have in the UK?
Sis the only one having trouble reading is you. DIL and IASF have both sold 1+ million so she has 2.
LOL DEATH @ THE EXCUSES FROM THE FLEAS FOR LOCALYONCE’S ABSENCE.
WITH ALL THAT HYPE SHE GETS, WHY DOESN’T SHE EVER APPEAR ON ANY BEST SELLERS OR BIGGEST SELLERS LISTS? RIHANNA DOES LOL.
You still have not answered my question. Why is Gaga getting outsold by Miley.
LOL WHEN WILL U ANSWER MY QUESTION.
WHY IS BASICYONCE GETTING OUTSOLD BY A DISNEY SOUNDTRACK? LOL
This album has already run out of steam, hence the desperation of releasing flopping hurts, endless magazine covers and paid for accolades.
The hive counted their chickens before the eggs hatched.
The only one counting chickens is you. You have a knack of being proved wrong. Rated R acclaim, no Top 10, Album NEVER coming ring a bell.
Lmaoo death!! Why is t********* still releasing singles if the album is not meant for single success( according to Hives) and she doesn’t need them??
Because its an era dumbass
@slutriah
B**** ur fave is a has been
GTFO with those ancient receipts
Anything B.C doesn’t count in this generation
And lets not talk about her voice it’s been gone
For a min.
The only pressed one here is u.
Pressed @ the queen’s golden pipes and slayage I see? #BowDown
And still this surprise album hasn’t outsold a girl like me in the UK, and looking at what it’s selling now, will not.
DEATH @ it comparing Beyonce to AGLM sales. How long ago did that s*** come out?
LOL ALL THE MORE REASON WHY LOCALYONCE SHOULD HAVE OUTSOLD IT BY NOW.
DEATH @ THE SELF DRAG LOL
And theres a reply button. Only basic b****** need to post separte comments to make it seem like they’re dragging smh.
Rihanna: Sold 20,000,000+ Records In The UK
Madonna: Sold 30,000,000+ Records In The UK
Rihanna is about to snatch Madonna’s wig for the best selling female artist in the UK.
Them singles be adding up like shitt tho…
Rihanna the SINGLES queen!
Why are the UK sales sooo low…
Yall aint got nothing on us AMERICANS!!!
America still remains the LARGEST market in the music industry…
The Beatles sold 75% of thier records in AMERICA ALONE!
Stephy, I know you’re not going to forget TTT is one of the highest first week selling albums in the UK by a female artist (not Beyonce).
I know you’re not forgetting LOUD is about to cross the 2 million sold mark in the UK (Dangerously in love hasn’t passed that mark, and that came out when album sales were strong and off the hype of DC).
Singles queen? More like MULTI-PLATFORM QUEEN.
The US has a higher GDP and purchasing power per capita than the UK, that’s why.
Mariah’s golden pipes >>>> your fave’s rusty strings
Self dragging much???
Death at Beyoncé and Nicki being lessors to gaga and Rihanna. Hippo only local, poor dat
Dead the Navy must be in their glory with their cute little UK stats. Meanwhile Beyonce has outsold Rihannas entire discography in the biggest music market in the world with less albums.
Point? Rih still sold more records… In less time.
Rihanna sold more records than bey with how many albums in that time slayriah?
Rih’s record sales were still higher than Bey’s before Unapologetic though…
And she still had more albums then.
On my way! our fave has only 5 million ahead of Rihanna in the states but sis please tell how much she did in Japan or Uk, or Germany or France? I’ll wait
Oh wow your***
You tell me?
Yes, LovelyBird! I can admit that Rihanna is an ALBUM seller in the UK ONLY!
Those little ass number are so small to our American eyes. But in the UK selling a million albums there is like selling 5 million albums in America. So, YES she is an ALBUM seller IN THE UK!!!
Where’s floptiton?
where is What now?
Gurl, Lorde is selling more albums per week than Beyonce. You guys were hyped about it doing Adele numbers but it’s now doing Katy Payola numbers
Lol they said it would be diamond yet it hasn’t even crossed 2 million yet in MONTHS! #PoorThemAndTheFlopAssFave
LOL! Not a Mariah and R**** fan talking about not having crossed the 2 million mark. Has Rihanna ever had an album sell more than 2.5 million in the States alone? I’ll wait,even her relative hit album which was eons ago,GGGB still hasn’t sold that. Mariah,none of her recent albums(the last 2,3 including this upcoming one) have crossed the 1 million mark. They stale at the 500k mark. YOU GUYS HAVE NO SAY! Watch the MOST INFLUENTIAL Artist SLAY! Biggest grossing tour by a black(female) Artist EVER! Mariah will never,Rihanna can only DREAM!
LOL SCREAMING @ SLAVEONCE STILL NOT CROSSING 2 MILLION YET.
AND STOP THE LIES ABOUT THE MRS. RECYCLED JLO SHOW BEING THE BIGGEST GROSSING TOUR BY A BLACK FEMALE. JANET HAS 2 TOURS THAT GROSSED OVER $250 MILLION EACH.
LOCALYONCE WILL ALWAYS BE AT THE BOTTOM OF THE LIST LOL.
Hmmmm Why Oh Why are people calling Queen Beyonce Local? The woman is very very very successful outside of America. Not as much as Gaga or Rihanna (due to the fact that she is not trying to make white peoples party music) but she is NOT local.
To be honest, none of our (USA) pop stars are local. Only our (USA) COUNTRY stars are local.
1.) Shania Twain
2.) Garth Brooks
3.) Taylow Swift
are very local compared too Beyonce, Mariah, Gaga & other USA made pop stars…
Beyonce is local. She sold 1.9 million in the US and barely 3 million worldwide. Those are local stats Hun. Like I said in the previous post, only Lana, Rihanna, and Adele sell really well worldwide.
Slayriah, STOP BEING DELUSIONAL! Im not talking about her last album. Im ting about her career AS A WHOLE!
Beyonce is NOT local. Also, why is the UK the place to be considered un-local. Beyonce is extremely successful in lots of other countries as well.
If the UK’s success dicides whether or not USA stars are local or not then Mimi is very local cause Beyonce has outsold Mimi in the UK…
Question: Is Rihanna a USA made Pop star? Since, she did come to AMERICA to start her career. Hmmm
Yes it does. Her label is based in the US.
How is Rihanna not an album seller when she sells in less a time what favs take years to sell. LOUD sold in one year what TD and IASF took 2-3 years to sell. And even though LOUD has not sold more copies than IASF, she achieved huge numbers in a shorter time.
Whilst 4 took 3 years to sell 2.8 million, Rihanna sold 6.8 million albums in the same time span. How is she not an album seller again? Just because she also slays in singles (something Beyonce cannot do), is the most streamed artist on Spotify/Pandora/Vevo/YouTube (Beyonce cannot), is selling out stadiums (Beyonce wasn’t selling out stadiums at Rih’s age nor did she have a $100 mill+ tour) the only thing that stands out is singles, which you try to diminish simply because Beyonce can never.
Because the hives look at her singles success which takes away from the albums…They are dumb..GGGB came out of no where and snatch wigs.
You American idiots need to shut up you don’t know anything. I am from the UK and Beyonce is NOT local. She is just as big and respected as rihanna here. Of course Rihanna is going to sell more in a European market she makes more POP music. Beyonce barely comes to the UK which is why we went crazy over her Tour.
#LocalBeytch
Beyonce has sold more single than Mariah in the UK without the 90s though sit down no one cares for her here.
Who ares about the irrelevant ass UK? Mariah has bigger worldwide success than B*****. Bye!
Beyoncs is bigger than Mariah in Africa, Brazil and the UK to name a few. And you can post all Mariahs 90s achievments all you want. Beyonce was not at her peak then.
Mariah has the longest running #1 single in Brazil so keep quiet.
+ Mariah shitss all over B***** in North America, Asia, Australia, and Europe.
And when was that #1? Beyonce still shits in her there statistics doesn’t reflect your cultural impact all the time in a country. This is why people like you need to stop being so closed minded around receipts. Mariah was bigger than her IN THE 90s. Not anymore.
LOL MARIAH HAS SOLD 200 MILLION ALBUMS WORLDWIDE.
SLAVEONCE HAS SOLD 32 MILLION ALBUMS WORLDWIDE.
DOESN’T GET ANY MORE LOCAL THAN THOSE STRUGGLE NUMBERS LOL
Stephy stop please, Rude boy is not white people party music and it slayed everywhere. Man down is not white people party music and yet it was a bigger hit in France than any Beyonce single there.
Jump is not white people music and yet it topped the charts in NZ and Aus off of word of mouth alone, something Beyonce cannot do. Save the excuses.
And Beyonce has topped the album charts more times than Rihanna in Australia and South Africa so what?
Mariah has 6 #1 albums in Japan.
Who cares about her?
Rihanna is so global, why can she not even go Diamond in Brazil?
DEATH @ you clinging to that one irrelevant diamond plaque in Brazil! Crying @ the reach.
It is basic but why cant Rihanna get it?
Local = Rita Whora and Cheryl Cole.
You need to stop throwing that word around. Beyonce is an international Popstar! She is a household name across the world.
You are the FIRST fan base to get offended when people call Rihanna a singles artist, well its pott meets kettle!
P
LovelyBird, very true. I guess you have clocked my tea there. Welp, I guess Miss Rihanna is loved by everyone huh? She does go number 1 in more countries around the world even when the saong are terrible. She is a SINGLES queen. But albums Queen NOPE! She should be selling 10+ million albums per album tbh…
10 million albums?? Album sales are down..Nobody is selling 10 million nowadays…people download albums for free..
Rihanna is selling like she does because of her Island accent & Pop Tone. She (her TEAM) gives her great catchy material & she sells it very well threw sexual/demonic content. She captured the world threw her looks, accent & YOUTUBE! Her (Writters/Producers) music is extremely catchy & fun. But LoveBird, she is NOT a REAL artist just remember that…
If Rihanna is selling 3 million plus an album them that makes you an album seller if you are a singles queen then your album sales won’t go past gold. Learn your s*** dumbasses
And if you are local you wont be going platinum and selling out in countries across the world.
I forgot to add that Mariah also slays Bey in France.
If beyFATce didn’t care about singles….then why is she releasing countless of them?
Um because she has fans?
Lmaoo save the damn excuses
Is not an excuse its an answer. Why is Beyonce not performing her singles all over the place if she cares so much? Why is she holidaying instead.
She’s trying to land that number 1 spot…she’s been miserably trying for 6 years.
So why isn’t she promoting it?
Because she knows they will flop like 4 singles…what’s the point when she has 17 free music videos that her fans can eat up???
You just contradicted yourself. She wouldnt have put 17 videos on her album if she cared that much about singles.
LOL SHE WOULDN’T HAVE MADE 17 VIDEOS IF SHE DIDN’T CARE ABOUT SINGLES.
THE FLEAS GOT MORE EXCUSES FOR THAT H0 THAN A N%*#A GOING TO JAIL LOL
Anyways, congrats to Rihanna! She is the biggest pop star in the world RIGHT NOW in terms of SINGLES success.
As for Mariah Carey & Beyonce Worldwide accomplishments.
Mariah Carey: Sold 20,000,000+ Records In Japan ALONE
Beyonce has NEVER dominated another country/island like that outside of America BYE
iTunes Malaysia:
72) Mariah Carey – #1s (1998)
118) Ariana Flopde – Yours Truly (2013)
#Crying
I am absolutely dead at you posting stuff
From iTunes Malaysia. She’s probably sold
One more copy than Ariana to get that chart
Position.
Isn’t this blog from the UK?
Congrats to Rihanna and Beyonce. As for bozo the clown, I don’t know her…
Mariah Carey has also outsold Beyonce in Australia, Canada, Mexico, South Africa, France, Germany, Italy, Romania, Brazil, Spain, Switszerland & Poland amoung other countries…
Obviously she came out in the 1990s. Step into 2014
In 2014, Mariah is being outsold by Beyonce. But so is Patti, Aretha, Stevie & Michael Jackson BYE!
That still does not mean anything. After only 9 years into her career she has almost sold just as much records (mostly SINGLES) in most countries & surpassed all legedns in the UK. RIHANNA of course so stop it
So whats your point comparing 90s standard sales to todays ones?
My point is Marih has worldwide success just like Beyonce… THATS MY POINT!!!!!!!!
Damn do any of you get tired of the whole Beyonce vs Rihanna thing?
At the end of the day Beyonce has more acclaim than any current singer in this generation,while Def Jam has brought more singles and airplay than any label in history.
Why else do you think Riri is murking Beyonce in singles but not an actual tour, same with Mimi, Katy and other queens of payola. You can use album/single sales all you want, the only way to really tell nowadays that the general public is interested is if they buy your concert tickets.
Rihanna isn’t touching Beyonce in the talent,touring or acclaim department, Beyonce isn’t touching Rihanna in fashion,social media presence or singles.
Can we please move on TGJ? It’s not 2009 anymore.
Also Billboard,Forbes,Time,Pitchfork opinions> Yours..stop trying to discredit that woman and let her live.
Beyonce has only sold 40+ million records in the United States Of America
Rihanna has sold 71+ million records in the United States Of America…
Madonna has sold a CERTIFIED 88+ million records in USA (Estimated 100+ due to 80s sales being lost)
Mariah has sold 90+ CERTIFIED million records in USA (Estimated 100+ due to her first album singles & album sales being lost)
Girl shut up one minute you’re bandwagoning for Beyonce calling her the biggest and dragging Rihanna next you’re on Rihanna c***. Rihanna has 7 damn albums do the math. Beyonce outsold her albums in the US with less albums.
Madonna is only 65 Million U.S. certified sales.
I dont understand why some people are still turning a blind eye towards the BLATANT receipts that I provide, regarding Bey not giving Future writing credits!!!!
Here is the complete article & VIDEO proof!
—————————————
www. lovebscott .com/news/future-says-wrote-melody-beyonces-drunk-love-doesnt-know-didnt-get-credit
—————————————
There’s been a lot of confusion surrounding the similarities between Beyoncé’s “Drunk In Love” and Future’s “Good Morning.” We’ve seen Future briefly address the situation — but he never fully explained what went down.
In an interview with CRWN host Elliott Wilson, Future attempted to clear up the controversy.
“Detail came to the studio like. He cut the music off – ‘Man I’m about to work with Beyoncé. Can you please do this record man? She like the way you do yo’ songs’ ..and she this and that. We were working so much together, he ended up getting me to do it.
He put me in the booth. The song was already pre-wrote. I started doing the little melody – my melody that you can pretty much tell from “Turn on The Lights.”
If you listen to the records these are the same melodies I’ve been doing — “Never End,” “Turn Off The Lights”. If you go back to my mixtapes you hear my melody all over it — so it wasn’t that issue.
It was just, he was working with her, ended up cutting the record first & gave it to her. We had did the record about 8 months before she put it out.”
He goes on to say that during that time, he made “Good Morning” thinking Beyoncé wasn’t ever going to put “Drunk in Love ” out — but she did and thus “Good Morning” was scrapped.
Still unclear as to whether or not Future wrote anything on “Drunk in Love,” Elliott Wilson points out that both songs feature the line “we be all night” and Future clarifies that everything was written around the same time.
Elliott : “Why aren’t you properly credited for that song and why can’t you just put yours out?”
Future: “I don’t know. You gotta ask them that. I was like ‘Let me put “Good Morning” out since y’all put “Drunk in Love” out’. [They were] like ‘nah’”
Elliott: “But you weren’t credited on ‘Drunk In Love’”
Future: “Nope. That’s why they won’t let me put it out *laughs*”

http://youtu.be/_V0ti1mYNuI
J & B are really living up to the Thievery ass Bonnie & Clyde title…. I wont fully respect her until she starts giving credit where credit is DUE!!!!!
Like why fukking lie, cheat and steal!!!
Beyonce local? Lmfao. This is what happens when you spend to much time on blogs and not enough time in reality.
Shes been the biggest star of this generation for a while now shes watched her 00s peers some and go and now shes still the ranks with (and outdoing) the stars currently peaking (Katy, Rihanna etc) Isn’t that telling you something?
LOL NUMBERS DON’T LIE. ONLY THE FLEAHIVE DOES LOL.
LOCALYONCE IS BARELY SELLING ON PAR WITH KATY & RIHANNA, AND SHE HASN’T OUTSOLD HER ’00 PEERS BRITNEY & XTINA.
THAT SHOULD TELL YOU SOMETHING LOL
Rihanna – 6
Beyonce – 2
Nicki – 1
“Step into 2014”
Wait, so now the hair hats want people to disregard their faves past accomplishments? Wouldn’t that make Bouncy even more basic in 2014?
How? Shes broken records and outsold most pop girls.
LOL BRITNEY, XTINA, & PINK ALL HAVE OUTSOLD SLAVEONCE.
WHAT RECORDS DID SHE BREAK? MOST THIEVING ARTIST EVER? LOL
You guys are so pathetic. I’ve never in my life witnessed people who delight in trying to downplay the efforts of a successful artist whilst you’re sitting down jobless. Find a life. Do something with yourselves.
Congrats to everybody.
Anywho…
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=sy2kCW4MhSc
LOL I am made at you for posting this…..LOL!!!
And LIE #2 should have been “a man” do you mean wife beater S****-Z (see Foxy Brown and Amil Lions for details)
Wait she performed for Bush’s inauguration…WTF?
Who ever disliked my previous comment, God bless your hateful heart
Yaaaas @cheryl’s entry!!
At the end of the day, Rihanna can sell a billion records but she still won’t be respected. Not as a singer or all round artist. Besides Instagram and the number for her weed supplier she has no control over her career. She is essentially a puppet, I can’t WAIT until I hear a song written solely by her. To be honest, I think you Navy stans should stan for Ester Dean – the real Rihanna lmao
LMAOO I laugh at comments like this…They don’t throw icon awards out to anyone.
Beyonce has a legend award and yet you’re all here making fools of yourself.
…she got an award for singing songs the label pick out for her whilst getting promoted like crazy because the label know if they do she’ll sell more and they’ll get money off her ass.
If you give her a pen and paper and a few beats you won’t get anything but sweat on the page
LOL WHAT SONG HAS SLAVEONCE WRITTEN?
CAN SHE EVEN WRITE THE ALPHABET? LOL
Yet again, FUTURE confirms he wasnt given writing credits for “Drunk In Love” but he basically paid it dust!!!
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=OmIFK9qfH40
Starts @ 9:00
Of course the thief didn’t pay him she’s disgusting.
Lmao no one cares! Why he stay using the Queens name for some publicity. Thirsty ass nicca.
He never even mentioned Beys name, the radio host asked a question about the writer of DIL
So have a fukking seat
Yeah yeah whatever. We all know how it goes! Hes riding off that publicity sis.
Most celebs would address it once but wouldn’t want that to take the attention away from the album. But since its flopping i guess he would have Beys name attatched to every interview.
@FutureCiara you have to realize @Vee is very insecure and bitter.
@Molly you have to realize NO fan base is insecure and bitter over C squad darling.
I think it’s carzy that fake a$$ nothing DJs have the nerve to talk down to artists who visit their set. GTFOHWTBS. I hate how media thinks that we the fans of music and film five a fly f@ck what they think about our favorite artists!
Death at the girls dragging tf outta Beyonce.
Oh you would cheerlead wouldn’t you miss ‘unbiased’
You contradict yourself too much.
Explain to me how i contradict myself? just because you don’t like my comment doesn’t mean im contradicting myself im very unbiased but i see thru the hive and beyonce b*******.
Girl bye. Any opportunity to throw shade or hate on Beyonce you do it. Thats not someone ‘unbiased’ look up its definition. Just because you vomit up some compliments when it suits to make yourself look better doesn’t make you unbiased.
Dead @ Veee girl stop acting like you know me i give credit when its due people know i can’t stand Bey but i will never hate on her when its not necessary, i don’t have to try to make myself look good for the wack hive your opinions about me and others don’t matter.
I don’t know you. I don’t want to know you either unlike you I don’t need to make virtual friends on a blog I have my own. I just clock your comments. And when you try to be slick with my fave I will come for you. The only one bitter is you becaue the Hive drag your ass.
I’m screaming at the iTunes Malaysia receipts
Above. That’s just as delusional as Rosie saying Lana
Is global because she went number 1 in Afghanistan.
Worry about your own fave (whoever it is)
My fav is set to slay the charts in June. When is yours tho? Cling to itunes Malaysia because that’s the only place Mariah is even in the top 1000.
But I don’t get why people are shading Beyoncé.
Of course Rihanna’s singles are going to sell more, her
Music is catered more to the uk.
This b**** has no shame.

Why are you so obsessed – you’re so pathetic. Jesus bless you and touch your soul. You have demons in you.
Oh I have demons?…..

“Pastor Kenny”. What kind of Pastor goes onto an urban music blog that literally promotes things that goes against the bible you read? That’s what I thought 😉
I’m also screaming at the future/drunk in love delusion.
Why is he clinging onto it after his album bombed?
Why can’t he make another drunk in love? Aloe blac didn’t
Cling to wake me up after he didn’t get credited, he made
Another top 10 single. When will future?
Okay! Not him after Beys money to pay off that ring and child support debt.
First lets address his album bombing allegations when it JUST came out on Tuesday and a full week hasnt even been counted for yet!!
—————
You sound ignorant as all hell.
—————
Secondly, there is no doubt in my mind that Future will continue on making hits!!! Look up his credentials, He is a hitmaker first and songwriter
—————
The Drunk In Love song opened doors for him in the future, which is why he states he is not pressed…….
—————
Listen to the man speak before you assume these false feelings that he is supposed to have over being b*** hurt about simple credits….
—————-
Thirdly, you stan for a local ass UK artist who works for Simon Cowells flop TV show that got axed in the US…
No further comments
I’m screaming because you were the first to drag West Coast based on predictions. Also, who is future? When has he had a hit? Why is he literally clinging to Drunk in Love? Cheryl has plenty on hits. In fact, none of her singles have missed the top 20. If you want me to start to Ciara, I can, but Cheryl’s one album single-handedly outsold both Ciara and Future’s last albums. And this is by a “talent show has been.” When will your fav(s) even book a spot on tv? kii
Girl nobody is pressed about Drunken H**………. You are really getting in a tizzy and I WILL NOT waste my time!!!
Like I said Future is a hit maker, who has studied the craft of writing and producing hits.
He is releasing 2 albums this year, and nobody even knows your f****** fave!
BYE
Gosh it takes all these people to come after Beyonce and they still sound stupid.
Yes, Kelly surely enjoys kissing beyawnce’s vag on the down low….. 😉
Kiii

As the King of all Dance, I have to ask this question. Ciara stans, gather around my shoes and answer me this. Why do you attempt to ‘drag’ successful artists who are prospering and outselling your favourite? Another question, why is it that when Ciara releases new music you don’t buy it?
I’m curious…
Curious, Why are you trolling under a Michael Jackson name to attempt dragging Ciara!!
You look insanely pathetic and ignorant as all hell…. Stop disrespecting Michael like that
Lol. Theres not even many hive members here yet yall still dedicating your time and energy to Yonce.
I swear Bey how do you do it? How you keep them so pressed like that girl?
@FutureCiara @Lovebird love you two!
I’m seriously confused as to why Ciara fans cling to Future. Is it just another way to try to shade Beyonce?
screaaaaming

Grats
Wow @ the comments, the Hive dragged with all class 😀 I love!!!

US>>>>> UK
Congrats to all….. Same tired A$$ Bey hate. Hive why do y’all waste time with the lessor?
The Ciara fans are a joke. I see why y’all be so mad(Molly and FutureCiara). Well, Future explained the sequence of events to Angie Martinez on Hot 97 Thursday (March 27). “I recorded the song first, for her, for BEYONCE’… I did the actual ‘Drunk In Love.’ Along with Detail,” he said. “I demoed the record for [Detail] and I put a little twist on it, but at the same time he wrote the record, Detail did write the record.” So what’s all this she stole from future……..DETAIL WROTE IT NOT FUTURE. I understand your hate for Beyonce’ and all but please come with FACTS.
Timbaland
Rasool Diaz
Brian Soko
Jay-Z
Beyoncé Knowles
Drunk in Love, Composers
Rihanna fans are funny. Keep in mind Rihanna is nothing but a s**** for the Carter’s and the Navy knows this!!!!!(We keep y’all MAD and Pressed)
Attn all Beyonce’ HATERS. Are you mad or Nah? At the end of the Day y’all can say what you please about her, but it don’t change the facts.
SHE IS THE HBIC. SHE IS IN CHARGE OF THE GIRLS, including your FAV to.
BEYONCE’>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>> ALL Y’ALL FAVS No shade no T it is what it is. Beyonce’ keeps y’all so mad and I love it.
She’s the boss
Beyoncé doesn’t just sit at the table. She builds a better one. Today she sits at the head of the boardroom table at Parkwood Entertainment.
In December, she took the world by surprise when she released a new album, complete with videos, and announced it on Facebook and Instagram. Beyoncé shattered music-industry rules — and sales records.
One song includes words by novelist Chimamanda Ngozi Adichie: “We say to girls, ‘You can have ambition, but not too much.’ ” Beyoncé has insisted that girls “run the world” and declared, “I’m not bossy, I’m the boss.” She raises her voice both on- and offstage to urge women to be independent and lead.
In the past year, Beyoncé has sold out the Mrs. Carter Show World Tour while being a full-time mother. Her secret: hard work, honesty and authenticity. And her answer to the question, What would you do if you weren’t afraid? appears to be “Watch me. I’m about to do it.” Then she adds, “You can, too.”
Starships is such a horrible song. It’s ashame cuz nicki has better
songs that deserve to be on that list.
Sam,
I will call it out: rita whora, the girl u said will end rig rig, the girl beyonce seems to really like is hovering between 80 – 85 on iTunes,HA! The song has been out for 4 business days and still cannot break into the top 50 iTunes and she has HAD PROMO. THIS IS HER SECOND time in the USA.
HOW long did it take for SOS to pop? SOS was smash the moment we heard it.
HA HA HA HA HA Now, she is so desperate, she is going on what happens live on BRAVO; how cheesy,trying to appeal to RHOA crowd.
Mark my words, blow jobs or not: she is getting dropped.
I am sick to death of RihYAWNa and Beyonce (though I do like Bey). I hate that the media is so controlled and rigged that only a handful of artists can actially receive entrance into the game. I am bored with the same old two or three people all the dame time.
If your talking about album sales.. Beyonce is the first female artist to have all six her first album reach number one.. Beyonce has 6 albums in 11 years and Riherpes has 7 in ten years coz her white rhino looking ass keep releasing albums every year.. Just face it Navy your captain is nothing but Queen B’s Footstool.. #BeyonceBeSlayingTheseHeifers..
