And the accolades continue to flood in.
A potent blend of talent and business savvy have established Beyonce atop of the Pop pack.
Indeed, beyond being a formidable force on the charts, the 33-year-old has proven herself capable of shape-shifting the very industry she exists within; a point punctuated by fact that – in the aftermath of her 2013 surprise album release – new music will now arrive on the same day worldwide.
With the said project being orchestrated by the star’s own company, Parkwood Entertainment, it’s little surprise that the business has been honored as one of the Most Innovative In The World.
The title was bestowed on Parkwood by Fast Company, who tallied a top ten of game changing businesses across different disciplines.
Their reason for picking Queen B below…
Via FC:
2. PARKWOOD ENTERTAINMENT
For Beyoncé, and the Beyoncé Effect. Beyoncé and her company broke pretty much all the music biz’s album release rules with Beyoncé last December. With no prerelease single, no advance promotion, and no warning, Mrs. Carter dropped the album globally with a simple note on her social media accounts: “Surprise!” The Internet went crazy, she became the top search on Twitter, and, at a time when nobody was supposed to be buying records anymore, Beyoncé sold more than 600,000 copies in three days. The album’s 17 songs all had elaborate accompanying videos, an undertaking made feasible in part by the nontraditional release strategy. “It was a choice of investing in promotion and hype or in the art,” says Parkwood GM Lee Anne Callahan-Longo. The industry took notice: More artists are trying creative release strategies—among them, U2, Skrillex, and Kid Cudi in the past year—and many long-held marketing tenets (different release dates in different territories, pushing singles to radio) are finally being questioned. “The same marketing and promotion plans for every release does not work,” says Callahan-Longo. “It’s exciting if you’re willing to be brave and take risks. Great content can cut through.”
Deserved!

Anyway, how’s law school? Remember that you said that you were studying law in the UK? OMG!!! You’re graduating in 3 months. Are you excited? 😆
That’s not the point sis, why are you so obsessed with BEYONCE??? You have so much hate for someone you don’t know. It’s a bit scary.. You are giving me MARK DAVID CHAPMAN tease..LOL
Why were you and BritneyRayCarey CLOCKED for rocking matching avi’s the other day?
You were responsible for that. You did the same thing to Slayriah and Blue Ivy Rod by trolling under their names so you can make people believe that they were the same person. Talk about Déjà vu. 😆 And why are you repeating yourself? I already clocked you for that. Seriously, you fágs can’t drag. Now be gone peasant. You’re dismissed.
Prove it! Oh wait you can’t. Don’t try to smear my name just because you were caught trolling:

Pyschotic obsessive? Do you even know what you’re talking about? And stalking? B*****, how… errr… how do you stalk on a blog? LOL. SMH. Do you see why everybody from LB to Slayriah to Molly calls you stupid? Do you see why you stay getting clocked on your stupidity? You must get it together. I’d be more than welcome to donate or start a kickstarter for your education or etiquette or something. This has to stop. 🙁
Are you not tired of embarrassing yourself yet? Are you tired of being dragged up and down these post like a crash dummy doll? Are your fingers bleeding from all the illogical irrelevant essays? Are you tired of being off your medications? Since you support the Hive so much we should all donate a cent to help you with your meds!!! OAN leave my LESSORS out of it!!

I am so proud of her…..This woman does not have to work a day in her life again….#PAIDQUEEN
Bey is a sharp businesswoman who has the most control of her career out of any of today’s artists. Yet you idiots continue calling her dumb. None of the artists today measure up to her and that is a fact not an opinion #deal
Another fukin YAWN must be Beyonce weekend on thatbeyoncedust

*Throws 400 Million Dollars Worth of Gold Coins at Haters Faces*
I’ll wait for her next “achievement” that doesn’t include music. Bîtch can’t break Billboard records so let her give herself a pat on the back. She obviously has news publications on payroll. There’s no such thing as too much money. I meant the bosses of these news publications by that. *sigh*
You are such a creep!!!!! Just make sure you stay away from BEY when you see her in public, i’m afraid you might pull a MARK DAVID CHAPMAN!!!!!!!!LOL #WHENOBSESSIONTURNSTOCRAZY
Yawn. I hope she’s paying y’all well for these articles kiii, enough of this overrated cow
LOL….SEETHE B****. WHEN WILL KERI NOWHERELAND??? IS THAT B**** IS STILL PERFORMING AT K.F.C???? I HEARD SHE’S UPGRADED TO MCDONALDS NOW. YES KERI!!!!! YOU BETTER WORK..LOL
Always hating on the beautiful college educated keri because your fave can’t read
How can you accuse some of hating, when you clicked in this Beyonce post just be negative as usual.
Was I talking to you?
But my fave can book a tour and gross over 200 million dollars????? I’m sure KERI NOWHERELAND can do the same. And if she decides to that, just tell her to perform later in the time. That’s when i love to go to K.F.C….
Why do you have to be talking to me for me to call out the simple double standards dumb troll? You know, kind of the same way you stay in the Hives reply section when no ones talking to you.
“Soul not for sale” -keri hilson instagram post 2 weeks ago
Queen. Don’t be salty because your faves cannot match.
Congrats Bey
Its nice to see BLACK women slaying the game
@I Troll For “Talent”
Where’s BritneyRayScarey at?
Not going to lie, that was good innovation the way she dropped the album. On that front I give her a plus.
At least you’re giving her props. I respect that a lot, especially coming from someone who does not like her…But what the hell is wrong with that crazy Beyonce fan @ISTANDTOBEATHOT????? It is so obsessed with Bey….IT IS REALLY SERVING ME MARK DAVID CHAPMAN REALNESS
But I have no problem with Beyonce, I have a problem with her fans, well, most of them.
LB it was a gimmick Shes not the first to drop a surprise album
Evidently, it wasn’t a gimmick considering the fact, that it was THE FIRST MAJOR SUCCESS.
Can someone tell me what language Slay_Hive/Prismatic is writing in, I cannot recognize it.
‘
Do they no longer teach English and grammar in American schools anymore?
Are you slow or do you just not comprehend English?
So you consider whatever it is you wrote English?
“do you just not comprehend English?” ➡ That wasn’t used appropriately. Trust me. Im actally in College/University (it depends on location). You’re such a try-hard. LOL. Try again sis
Clearly I wrote the lyrics the way she sings them. I’m more than sure you understood, being that you admitted to buying Bey’s albums. CTFU!!
Oh those were lyrics, I couldn’t tell 🙂
I’m sure you couldn’t. I’ll play along too *winks* 😀
#SpecialEd
I don’t see your mother in here!
Couldn’t be my mom because she can form proper sentences and use grammar to the post secondary level. My 4 year old cousin kbows the difference between hynonyms, why you don’t you?
BOTH
B**** Get your Pressed And Obsessed Ass Out Of My Replies With That Weak Ass Grammar Mess! This Is A Blog Take That S*** To English 101!
Slay_matic is an embarrassment to Americans. He’s an embarrassment to all black gay people.
And you’re just an embarrassment to schizophrenics and human beings. PERIOD!
“do you just not comprehend English?” ➡ That wasn’t used appropriately. Trust me. Im actally in College/University (it depends on location). You’re such a try-hard. LOL. Try again sis

*’ACTUALLY’. Sorry everyone I have a tendency to ‘clock’ people for grammar even though I can barely form a proper sentence when I’m not on my medication. Hopefully my spelling and grammar will improve before my dissertation on Agriculture is due 🙁 I need the highest grade so I can take over My Auntie Bimbola-Ono’Yobo-Adeji”Oppong’s livestock and business in Pretoria.

Great day for Beyonce and her Beyhive! Yassss ICONIC s***!!!
Yes the lessers fans are seething.
YAAAAAASSSS!!! QUEEN!
Anyway, hey Sam, is it true a Silver certification is hard to come by in the UK?
‘
I mean if the second biggest female artist in the UK after Adele can struggle to a silver certification, I can only imagine how tough it must be for lessers like Ellie Gouding, Emeli Sande and Paloma Faith. Tough market out there.
LMAOOOOO! http://2ksjbh44hk54113rf2pk9bis06.wpengine.netdna-cdn.com/wp-content/uploads/2014/04/747958.gif
People should embrace people like Beyonces power. Its not often a black woman comes along in this industry and does what she is doing at her level. Thats why so many people have an opinion on her. Whats the point of coming into this post just to say ‘yawn’ or ‘shes paying for it’. You just seem mad af because these articles tell nothing but the truth.
Smoke and mirrors
His many urban youth does she employ, intern there
What do they do agin, innovative as heck all TNT photoshopping an for to convince people to worship bey mediocre , very innovative indeed
Someone with sense

And this is why is not about who did it first, no one claimed she did it first. Its the after affect that HER album had over others for someone of her caliber in 2013-15.
Pyschotic??? Did you mean psychotic hmmm Slay_matic? And you wanna call people out for grammatical errors. WTF is pyschotic you hóe? I’ll let the others take it from here. *Yawns*
Lmaoooooo hang yourself b****! I promise you won’t be missed
LOL. How do even pronounce “Pyschotic”? You’re stupid. Now get out of my sighT.
B**** Keep My F****** Name Out Of Your Comments!!! You Broke Ass Third World Ashy Ankle Cotton Picking B****. I’ll Tell You How to Pronounce It After You Tell Me the Difference Between Prove And Proof Bum Ass B****!
“LOL. How do even pronounce “Pyschotic”? You’re stupid. Now get out of my sighT.” ➡ *How do YOU even pronounce”. God I really do come across as a dumb illiterate h*** don’t I 🙂 I even have the nerve to ‘clock’ others for their grammar when my own grammar is appalling!!! 🙂
“I’m an embarrassment to schizophrenics???” ➡ What??? Like WTF??? ROTFLMFAO!!! I give up.

Note that I haven’t denied having schizophrenia, I’m recycling old drags I used on previous posts KII sorry everyone. I even declared on twitter that I would stay off TGJ until the end of march so I could focus on taking my medication but I just couldn’t resist trolling 🙂
@I Troll For “Talent”
Look JJ, the Goodtimes are over. YOU WERE EXPOSED.
That’s a kiii!
The impact! BEYONCE is iconic. I’m so proud.
@LB
It’s been 4 months since TGJ posted anything about Cheryl Tweedy. This is a British blog that strongly support British acts. What about her? Even Sam doesn’t f*** with that British flop that’s been trying to break into the US for 6 years now. Rita Whora, Jessie J, and Charli XCX done did it before her. They all have top 10 hits… before her. #Tragic
Beyoncé and her Parkwood Entertainment company slaying yall favs!
Amazing. What’s funny is when I heard about the ‘Beyoncé’ album, I thought my friend was lying. When I went to iTunes and actually saw it there, my jaw dropped. Lol. I’ve heard about this method, but I’ve never seen it done by an artist on B’s level. It is innovative. I applaud her. Congrats.
Well damn, if this is what it’s like to be “a dumb illiterate high school drop out” then please sign me up!!
And can we all agree to just ignore I Stan(d) for talent. We’ll lose brain cells trying to have an actual logical conversation with it!!
Slay_matic thinks he has impacted this blog but if only people understood his drags or “reads” without struggling through the run on sentences and fragments. N*gga, it’s “Beyonce sales are better than…” not SELLS
LOL and I regularly mix up ‘prove’ with ‘proof’, and I’ve made several grammatical errors on this post alone, and I still have the nerve to try and call everyone illiterate. But Hey h*** 🙂 🙂 🙂 guess i’m just Special!!!!!
Slaymatic you need help, take your meds and stop trolling as other people
I have to have some kind of impact being that you can’t stop mentioning me in all of your comments. You can’t stop showing how pressed you are under ALL of my comments. You can’t stop over-exaggerating “my lack of education” #THEREACH You mad b****?!! Stand In Line H**!!!! *and it won’t stop* *in Sevyn voice*
The only impact you have is how hard you hit that refresh button after your public library’s dial up crashed due to too many users on it.
If i have no impact why oh why does my name stay on your mouth like liqka??!! Help me understand hun!! Those fumes coming from your Windows 98 Acer desktop tho!!! Act like a banana and SPLIT!
But you still don’t know what a hynonym is
And you’re still PRESSED! CHOW!
Con grant to park wood and queen bey more success for company and all the people involve theiris no one like queen bey smart talented she is every thing that is good
Lmaooo I see Istandfortalent got the h I V scums seething!!!The fleas created a few troll accounts to drag him/her.

Look at how fast it responds to me after I call him out on him pretending to be I stan[D] smh

This article/ post could have used a few edits before posting. They say reading out loud is a good method for proof reading
