Published: Thursday 1st Sep 2016 by David

Beyonce‘s ‘Hold Up‘ is making a beeline for triumphant radio glory.

Details below…

The entertainer’s performance at the MTV Video Music Awards reignited interest in the MNEK-penned single on radio.

This week, months after its parent album ‘Lemonade’ was released,  the song is the most-added song on Rhythmic radio, beating Ariana Grande‘s ‘Side to Side‘ to claim the top spot as fans look forward to the latest leg of her ‘Formation World Tour.’

Peep its lyrics below:

Hold up, they don’t love you like I love you
Slow down, they don’t love you like I love you
Back up, they don’t love you like I love you
Step down, they don’t love you like I love you
Can’t you see there’s no other man above you?
What a wicked way to treat the girl that loves you
Hold up, they don’t love you like I love you
Oh, down, they don’t love you like I love youSomething don’t feel right
Because it ain’t right
Especially comin’ up after midnight
I smell your secret, and I’m not too perfect
To ever feel this worthless
How did it come down to this?
Scrolling through your call list
I don’t wanna lose my pride, but I’m a fuck me up a bitch
Know that I kept it sexy, and know I kept it fun
There’s something that I’m missing, maybe my head for one

What’s worse, lookin’ jealous or crazy, jealous or crazy?
Or like being walked all over lately, walked all over lately
I’d rather be crazy

Hold up, they don’t love you like I love you
Slow down, they don’t love you like I love you
Back up, they don’t love you like I love you
Step down, they don’t love you like I love you
Can’t you see there’s no other man above you?
What a wicked way to treat the girl that loves you
Hold up, they don’t love you like I love you
Slow down, they don’t love you like I love you

Let’s imagine for a moment that you never made a name for yourself
Or mastered wealth, they had you labeled as a king
Never made it out the cage, still out there movin’ in them streets
Never had the baddest woman in the game up in your sheets
Would they be down to ride?
No, they used to hide from you, lie to you
But y’all know we were made for each other
So I find you and hold you down
Me sing say

Hold up, they don’t love you like I love you
Slow down, they don’t love you like I love you
Back up, they don’t love you like I love you
Step down, they don’t love you like I love you
Can’t you see there’s no other man above you?
What a wicked way to treat the girl that loves you
Hold up, they don’t love you like I love you
Slow down, they don’t love you like I love you

Oh it is such a shame
You let this good love go to waste
I always keep the top tier, 5 star
Backseat lovin’ in the car
Like make that wood, like make that wood
Holly like a boulevard

What’s worse, lookin’ jealous or crazy, jealous or crazy?
Or like being walked all over lately, walked all over lately
I’d rather be crazy

Hold up, they don’t love you like I love you
Slow down, they don’t love you like I love you
Back up, they don’t love you like I love you
Step down, they don’t love you like I love you
Can’t you see there’s no other man above you?
What a wicked way to treat the girl that loves you
Hold up, they don’t love you like I love you
Oh, down, they don’t love you like I love you

I hop up out the bed and get my swag on
I look in the mirror, say, “What’s up?”
What’s up, what’s up, what’s up
I hop up out the bed and get my swag on
I look in the mirror, say, “What’s up?”
What’s up, what’s up, what’s up

Exciting times for Bey and her ‘Lemonade’-housed bops!

    The slayage!!! Lemonade is still sitting pretty at #2 on Itunes WW charts and her overall SPS is expected to have a 52% increase on the charts with a combined total sales of 25-30k!

    • Surprise..(DEC 2013) September 1, 2016

      I KNOW RIGHT….HOLD ROSE FROM LIKE BELOW 200 TO NO 13…AND ITS ALREADY GOLD AGAIN AND NOW GAINING MOMENTUM.

      • HailLegendBeysus September 1, 2016

        Right! She has 3 singles that are gold Sorry is less than 200k from platinum and Formation is less than 300k from platinum. I really wish she would just promote!

      • c September 1, 2016

        where do you guys find info about the amount of sales an album/single has?

    • Metzo September 1, 2016

      The power of promotion. Everytime Bey flops, she does it to herself smh

      • #JACKIE September 1, 2016

        Beyonce and Jay Z think they are above promoting for some reason.

  2. Surprise..(DEC 2013) September 1, 2016

    This b**** needs to put the song on VEVO and on spotify…IT is already gold anyways..lol

  3. Ughhhh September 1, 2016

    Love her, but she needs to go have a baby or something after this… I’m exhausted. She should start directing! Be behind the scenes for a little

    • Surprise..(DEC 2013) September 1, 2016

      I think she’s going to take a long break after this..definitely see her having another kid and probably directing.

    • Candice September 1, 2016

      You mean retiring?

  4. B2B September 1, 2016

    How are you tired of seeing her and she just came back? You tired of her slaying. Aint no baby bih.

  5. S****** Blonde September 1, 2016

    This album is so overrated. “Sorry” must be one of the worst songs I’ve ever heard, alongside the one she sang at the Global Citizen festival, I’m awesome or something like that, if we can call that a song.

    • Surprise..(DEC 2013) September 1, 2016

      So awesome is a song by SHY GLIZZY….it’s not her song..she covered it. CALM DOWN SIS..TAKE UR HATING BEHIND SOMEWHERE IN UR KLAN, U ARE NOT NEEDED.

      • S****** Blonde September 1, 2016

        Well, it says a lot about her taste in music, no wonder she does songs like Formation and Sorry.

    • JOHNVIDAL September 1, 2016

      s******
      “Beyonce” was a better album. Although I appreciate her last 3 efforts in general. She really changed the way she does things and went for a more artistic route focused on entire albums. She was needing something like that and she did it.

      • S****** Blonde September 1, 2016

        She’s doing the right things from a business point of view, the propaganda, the hype, all things that are working on her favor, however musically speaking, she’s lost, her music has never been great or timeless but now is just tragic.

      • JOHNVIDAL September 1, 2016

        s******
        I remember you said you liked the album “Beyonce” and that it sounded fresh. Lemonade… to be honest I still would have to listen a few more times to it.

      • S****** Blonde September 1, 2016

        Yes it was fresh because she tried new things, like the Madonna inspired track Haunted, which is probably the best song of her career but the album music is not memorable.

    • Surprise..(DEC 2013) September 1, 2016

      NO FOOL…BEY IS A PROPER SOUTHERN URBAN CHICK…SHE IS NOT NATURALLY A POP CHICK LIKE THE PEOPLE U STAN FOR. SO AWESOME IS THE CURRENT SOUTHERN WAVE OF MUSIC…THAT IS WHERE SHE IS FROM..U MIGHT CALL IT RATCHET BUT THAT IS TRULY THE CORE OF BEY. IT MIGHT NOT BE UR TASTE FINE, BUT DON’T ATTACK WHAT SHE IS DOING BECAUSE SHE LOVES IT. STICK TO THE GRANDMADONNA’S AND THE BARBADIAN GIRL U STAN FOR.

      • S****** Blonde September 1, 2016

        And who said that I was a pop music fan?……Btw, whatever that thing she sings is, is still trash, disposable music. Do you really think Sorry is going to be remembered as John Lennon’s Imagine?…..It’s not about the genre, it’s about the quality.

    • Surprise..(DEC 2013) September 1, 2016

      Yes i agree..SORRY IS NOT GOING TO BE LIKE A JOHN LENNON CLASSIC AND I DON’T THINK IT WAS CREATED TO BE THAT. ITS JUST A FUN SILLY SONG….CHILL SIS. P.S THAT BECKY LINE WILL BE REMEMBERED FOR A LONG TIME THO.

      • S****** Blonde September 1, 2016

        What Becky line, who’s Becky???

      • Amerikkka’s Most Wanted ~tyler September 1, 2016

        That’s what we are all still trying to figure out. Will the real Becky please stand up?

  6. Mark111 /.\ September 1, 2016

    You know clicking bating sites don’t last long. I love how the pest are clinging to R&B radio and charts now bc Beyonce can’t top a pop chart. Yet they dissed SO many R&B artist and charts in the past.

    • Surprise..(DEC 2013) September 1, 2016

      AND WITH A NINE WEEK NO 1 SINGLE, FRIH COULD NOT SELL OUT A 11K ARENA IN THE US……LMAO

      • Blue Ivy Rod September 1, 2016

        Okay, so are you not going to address the shade that Mark bestowed on TGJ and the HIVE?

      • HailLegendBeysus September 1, 2016

        Don’t mind him, he’s just mad because Auntie went tumbling down 9 spots on Itunes WW charts dispite having a VMA performance. ?????

      • Mark111 /.\ September 1, 2016

        See how they deflect and can’t stay on subject? Subject of the post is about rhythmic radio, my comment was about R&B charts, yet here come the pest talking about #1 pop hits and area tours. Here ya go… L

      • Mark111 /.\ September 1, 2016

        Oh look, more off subject deflection. Hahahaha! I can’t!

    • Annalise September 1, 2016

      Sis, R&B radio is one of the ONLY reasons why Aaliyah was remotely relevant in her day. In fact it is the SOLE reason why Try Again (aka Aaliyahs only hit) went to number one. Stay in yo line hunny!

      • Mark111 /.\ September 1, 2016

        More deflection and wrong info. lol

  7. JOHNVIDAL September 1, 2016

    Isn´t it strange that Rihanna didn´t seem to benefit at all from her performances at the VMAs? Any of her singles I mean? Normally that´s all she´s got going on with her.
    Beyonce is doing really well sales wise with these last two albums. Years ago I always said she wasn´t that top seller at all despite having everything in her favour and star power (you know, in the 00s, when she could never cross the 5 million copies sold in the USA from any of her albums when albums were still doing it). But lately she has really become one of the biggest album sellers. And without the need of hit singles. I cannot shade that at all.

    • Surprise..(DEC 2013) September 1, 2016

      EXACTLY!!!!!!! SAY IT LOUDER FOR THE NAZI TO HEAR IN THE BACK.

    • Surprise..(DEC 2013) September 1, 2016

      P.S JOHNVIDA, U ARE QUICKLY BECOMING MY FAV ON THIS BLOG……ALWAYS SPILLING FLAVOURED TEA..

    • S****** Blonde September 1, 2016

      One of the biggest album sellers of this TIME, when 2 million ww is like 25 million back in the 90’s, you know, CITATION NEEDED.

      • JOHNVIDAL September 1, 2016

        s******
        Yes nowadays almost everything is basic in the industry. But right now, in THIS industry in THIS time she is one of teh top sellers. I still cannot conceive how Adele has been able to do what she´s done. It´s an exception. Kudos to her.

    • Blue Ivy Rod September 1, 2016

      That’s cute grandma but..

      Billboard 200 Week of Sept 10

      ANTI – #8

      LEMONADE- #13

      Hot 100 Week of Sept 10th

      TIWYCF – #6

      Even after she was dragged for the needed me performance – #11

      Work – #39

      No Beyonce singles in the hot 100.

      • Lolz September 1, 2016

        Whats the point in posting that when Lemonade has outsold Anti and is continuing to outsell Anti.

      • Surprise..(DEC 2013) September 1, 2016

        AND HOW MUCH AS CANTI ACTUALLY SOLD THO????? I’LL WAIT…

      • Metzo September 1, 2016

        Why don’t you go ahead and post the pure sales as well?

      • Blue Ivy Rod September 1, 2016

        ANTI SALES TO DATE – 2,687,000.00 – pure sales + Streams

        physical sales – 687,000.00

        LEMONADE – 1,457,000.00 – phyiscal sales

    • Mark111 /.\ September 1, 2016

      “Isn´t it strange that Rihanna didn´t seem to benefit at all from her performances at the VMAs?”
      .
      Right? Like how her singles are still in the top 40 of the MAIN charts and her album is still in the top 10 of the MAIN chart. Her singles are still killing radio (Pop and urban), but yea, isn’t it crazy?

      • JOHNVIDAL September 1, 2016

        I repeat, how has she benefited? She was doing that (that thing I suppose you think is slayage lol) before the VMAs. Seriously without the constant push singles wise she´s nothing. And with no success, others have talent regardless, not her case. So…

      • Mark111 /.\ September 1, 2016

        So we’re comparing the rise of songs that fell off the charts after 1 week to songs that never left the charts? Rihanna benefits is to continue killing the charts. You don’t RISE when you’re been on top the whole year. :0

  8. HailLegendBeysus September 1, 2016

    OOP MORE REASONS FOR THE HATERS TO BE MAD!!!!
    .
    “The judge said he considered filmmaker Matthew Fulks’ argument that “Lemonade” ripped off his work, and decided to toss the case … according to docs obtained by TMZ. It’s unclear why the judge rejected Fulks’ suit … he says he’ll dish details later.

    TMZ broke the story … Bey was sued by Fulks back in June alleging she jacked several parts of his 2014 movie, “Palinoia” — using similar images from his short film for the “Lemonade” visual album.”

  10. Meteorite September 1, 2016

    You know… I’m heavily considering turning in my “Lamb” and “Fighter” cards because both Mariah and Christina are failing me right now. I think I’ll trade those in and get a deluxe Beyhive card membership.

  12. Just Saying September 1, 2016

    Poor Anti. Why isn’t benefiting for the VMAs when it was supposed to be her night lol. Motha Bey took her shine AGAIN.

      • Just Saying September 1, 2016

        Lol. Is that it?

      • Blue Ivy Rod September 1, 2016

        point is your logic is flawed. #TryAgain

      • Just Saying September 1, 2016

        How so? Beyonces album still saw a much bigger boost in sales than Rihannas, despite it being Rihannas night. That’s all there is to it.

      • Blue Ivy Rod September 1, 2016

        Still missed the point. Take your L and move on.

      • Just Saying September 1, 2016

        What’s your point though?

      • Lewey September 1, 2016

        You do realize that chart does not include the full week after the VMAs….

    • Blue September 1, 2016

      You mean like how its gonna be high then lemonade on the charts? Or how LOTB is now in the top 50 on itunes?

      • Just Saying September 1, 2016

        And it still hasn’t outsold Lemonade. And isn’t even close to outselling it either.

      • blue September 1, 2016

        not what i said tho… how many weeks has anti been top ten now? how long has lemonade been out again? goodnight

      • Surprise..(DEC 2013) September 1, 2016

        OK..BUT HOW MANY HAS IT ACTUALLY SOLD.???…U KNOW LIKE SALES, THE ART OF BUYING AND SELLING…IN CASE U WERE CONFUSED.

      • Just Saying September 1, 2016

        Who cares? Lemonade has and is still selling more. Id be embarrassed of my fave was in the top 10 for so long and still cannot outsell an album that fell out weeks ago. Smoke and mirrors.

      • blue September 1, 2016

        haven’t looked at its WW sales in a long time but its usa actual sales excluding should be around 1.5mil albums sold.

  13. Blue Ivy Rod September 1, 2016

    Why do the pressed Hive members and Cruella Vidal keep trying it but have no actual factual receipt that backs up their drags? If Beyonce killed and stole the show at the Vmas then where is her singles in the 100? Why is the album seller charting much lower than the coconut girl who is there for streams? Have a seat. #NoExcuse

  14. Lolz September 1, 2016

    The only reason Rihanna is charting higher is because of streams. That is nothing to brag about considering Beyonces album isn’t even available on all streaming platforms. Lemonade has sold over 1 million copies in the states alone while Anti has barely crossed 500k. The Navy is so damn basic.

    • Surprise..(DEC 2013) September 1, 2016

      TEA!!!!!!!!!!

      • Blue Ivy Rod September 1, 2016

        That isn’t an excuse, Beyonce is an “album Seller” and Rihanna is not. She should be at 5 million worldwide by now especially by her tour stats. Have a seat please

      • Lolz September 1, 2016

        Beyonce is one of the few Popstar right now still shifting PURE SALES and not relying on streams or fabricated certifications to go platinum so she certainly is proving herself as a top album seller in 2016.

      • Blue Ivy Rod September 1, 2016

        How is it Fabricated if the RIAA (the business that you HIVE use to shade Rih from 06-2015) is the one that came up with the rules? If Beyonce was gaining frmo the streams then would you have swerved it? Bye

      • Lolz September 1, 2016

        It’s fabricated because they are not based on genuine sales, only a mass company buying it in bulk. Yes she is certified thanks to RIAA but it will never be respected by true music fans because it’s like a cheat and you know it. Had Beyonce done this the navy would be having a field day. Lemonade album is doing better than Rihanna’s without streaming, y’all only cling to it because it’s the only thing helping your faves tragic numbers. But when Drunk In love charted on streams y’all had something to say. The hive are not the hypocrites here, the navy are.

      • Blue Ivy Rod September 1, 2016

        Huh..? It’s exactly like having a points card like Airmiles or Aeroplan. If you cannot understand that logic then you could understand streaming.

      • Lolz September 1, 2016

        I understand streaming and it is not impressive and you know it. Pure sales will always trump it.

    • Mark111 /.\ September 1, 2016

      Yet streaming is doing nothing for the other albums that been released this year other than Views. But whatever helps you hate at night. Not our fault Tidal is one of many flops under Jay Z’s belt.

      • Lolz September 1, 2016

        Who said it was anyone fault? Lemonade has still outsold Anti. The end.

      • Mark111?️?️?️?️?️?️?️?️?️?️?️?️?️?️?️?️?️?️?️?️?️?️ September 1, 2016

        The only reason Rihanna is charting higher is because of streams.
        .
        So why you’re making excuses for Lemonade being out charted by Anti? And it didn’t, Rihanna got the Samsung check, that pure check is the difference from winning and flopping. Bye bye now.

      • Lolz September 1, 2016

        A chart position is a chart position. You’re really clinging to a Top 10 postion when the album itself still hasn’t even OUTSOLD Beyonces? It’s not excuses they are facts. You sound stupid af.

  15. MsYonce September 1, 2016

    I love this song so much slayy

  16. HELP September 1, 2016

    Beyonce is not about her FANS, she is about her money… no streaming in 2016 B**** BYE

    • Briano September 1, 2016

      U mean Sony, she doesn’t own her masters

  17. Metzo September 1, 2016

    Lemonade’s current pure sales are 1.3 Million in the U.S alone.

    • Blue Ivy Rod September 1, 2016

      her sales 1,457,00.00 worldwide.

      • MsYonce September 1, 2016

        She’s sold 2.3 million WW get your facts straight

      • Blue Ivy Rod September 1, 2016

        Even if thats true Rih still sold more and is charting and making more money than Lemonade.

      • MsYonce September 1, 2016

        Anti has only sold 1.2 million WW LOL

      • Blue Ivy Rod September 1, 2016

        I don’t know who taught you math but if she sold 687,000.00 in physical sales and is double platinum in streams (2,000,000.00) (and enough of the stream shade because RIAA said 1,500 streams equals ONE physical sale) then what would happen when you add them all together?

  18. Fake Songwriting Credits September 1, 2016

    When 4 wad released the hive were like “it’s beyonces’s best album” because it underperformed and had no hits. The selftitled came, and again “her best body of work” “she doesn’t care about singles” but again no standout hit, and now deep inside they know lemonade is dull, nothing remarkable but “it’s her best” Lmaooooo to make up for the lack of memorable songs.

    • MsYonce September 1, 2016

      Just because you have a #1 one hit on a album doesn’t mean it’s your best album. #1s don’t define quality like Loool

      • blue September 1, 2016

        just like not having one doesnt mean you do.

    • Lewey September 1, 2016

      You just gonna act like Drunk In Love was not number 2 on the billboard hot 100 and stayed in the top ten for over two months? No stand out hit? sit ya hatin ass down.

      • RihYonce September 1, 2016

        & drink in love also went 3x platinum may I remind you . What about your fave ?

  19. MsYonce September 1, 2016

    If your favs album haven’t outsold Lemoande you shouldn’t be trying to shade Beyoncé. ” but Anti is in the top 10″ and still Lemonade is selling more each week I’m wondering how y’all shading Beyoncé when your fav is suppose to be THE BIGGEST POPSTAR OUT but haven’t gon platinum in pure sales.

  20. Valerie September 1, 2016

    The numbers don’t lie and we all know who stole the show again. The sinking ships must be seething.

  21. LB September 1, 2016

    Funny Rhythmic and RnB radio matters to the hive NOW when they diss so many other female artists who top those charts. The hive are a bunch of hypocrites.

    • MsYonce September 1, 2016

      The hive doesn’t shade those it was the navy! Beyoncé signs mostly R&B music so I don’t get where you are getting your information

      • LB September 1, 2016

        Go back to the old posts and read about how the hive brag about ending Ashanti’s career, Keri Hilson’s career, Amerie’s career, insert RnB diva’s career here.
        ,
        You’re dismissed.

      • Blue Ivy Rod September 1, 2016

        If that’s true then why are y’all comparing Beyonce to the “pop girls”?

      • Mark111 /.\ September 1, 2016

        And they always dissing aaliyah, who had tones a #1 R&B songs, but they call her a non factor and brings up POP chart success. The irony. I haven’t even brought up Ciara, Ashanti, Keri and so on. But now when Beyonce can’t last more than a week on the pop charts, it’s not important anymore, along with singles, album sales, streaming, video views and whatever else Beyonce falls short on.

    • Mark111 /.\ September 1, 2016

      yep and it’s clear, old and tired. They’re scum. lol

      • LB September 1, 2016

        The fact that they cannot even stay on topic, they are literally pathetic

  22. blue September 1, 2016

    the hive celebrating radio adds now? rihanna must have had one hell of a year then just collecting those most added records with work and TIWYCF

  23. Blue Ivy Rod September 1, 2016

        honey selecting which numbers to count aint winning billboard who know more about the industry having saying rihanna won for the past… when did anti overtake lemonade again?, seems sooo long ago

      • Blue Ivy Rod September 1, 2016

        Beyonce isn’t 2x platinum as of yet and y’all are trying so hard to convince the sane people on this site otherwise. Beyonce is not selling music but her tours are doing exceptionally great. Take the L and move on.

      • Lolz September 1, 2016

        Who said I was selecting. Overall WW album sales show Lemonade has sold more than anti darling.

      • Lolz September 1, 2016

        @Blueivy Y’all talking about US platinum plaques. I’m talking about overall sales. And Lemonade>>>>Anti. Beyonce will be collecting her GENUINE double platinum plaque soon as well don’t you worry. Going Multi platinum has never been an issue for her.

      • Blue Ivy Rod September 1, 2016

        @Lolz That still puts Rih at 2.687 million

        musichart which tracks ww album sales has it at 2.5mil

      • Blue Ivy Rod September 1, 2016

        I’m not going to give you a math lesson again and especially when im talking right now and not JUN 15, on top of that Doesnt ChartNews get their info from RIAA? LOL

      • Lolz September 1, 2016

        @BlueIvy I don’t need a maths lesson I need you to show me the receipts. Where has Rihanna sold more than Beyonce WW? Plus June was just under 3 months ago if you calculated basic maths you would know there is no way an album like Anti could suddenly sell to another 1.6 million in that time when she’s not even selling 50k each week.

      • Lolz September 1, 2016

        And RIAA do not count sales they count shipments. All this time on this website and you still dont know the difference.

      • Blue Ivy Rod September 1, 2016

        I do know the difference thus why i posted the stats earlier i said Anti did about 2.687 worldwide and Beyonce did a little less, I dont know when she became double platinum but her sales are still less than rih

      • Lolz September 1, 2016

        Again. Show me those receipts.

      • Blue Ivy Rod September 1, 2016

        I just did if you care to scroll up

      • Lolz September 1, 2016

        Gurl no you didn’t just post this damn receipt and prove me wrong. Nobody’s here for your wayward estimations.

      ONE music store that sell singles that been on a record low this year that we don’t even know the update mec. ITunes might as well be trending topic, since how the Beyonce songs you listed fell of the BB charts.

  28. Blue Ivy Rod September 1, 2016

    despite the shade, I love Hold up and it is my favourite song off the album

  29. Fake Songwriting Credits September 1, 2016

    So Mtv gave the best female video to hold up, a flop song that is just being added with a forgettable video. Damm beyonce should have declined the award, it’s just too obvious. I mean we know her ego is huge, and she was at the ceremony because she knows she was winning but Lmaooooo, the thirst is real, and the PR unreal.

    • Amerikkka’s Most Wanted ~tyler September 1, 2016

      Flop? Hold up was a good vid. Lemonade alone had the best visuals hands down. Alot of hardwork was put into that visual album. Beyonce won because it was the VIDEO MUSIC AWARDS, not the billboard awards ya dumb f***

  30. Amerikkka’s Most Wanted ~tyler September 1, 2016

    Beyonce said f*** riri and her award kii. So glad that she’s doing some promo. Lemonade is coming for that 3 million mark. Slay trick or you’ll get eLEMONADEd

  31. Mark111?️?️?️?️?️?️?️?️?️?️?️?️?️?️?️?️?️?️?️?️?️?️ September 1, 2016

    So the pest were up and rage over a Rih & Drake LP that ended up just being a fake site. Lol, hating must be so stressful. Beyonce play y’all, Rihanna plays y’all, the Navy plays y’all. I’m out.

    • Amerikkka’s Most Wanted ~tyler September 1, 2016

      Lol you got all riled up and excited for no damn reason. Po’ tang.

      • Mark111?️?️?️?️?️?️?️?️?️?️?️?️?️?️?️?️?️?️?️?️?️?️ September 1, 2016

        Proof of me being excited? Or did you, like so many times, made it up with no evidence?

      • Amerikkka’s Most Wanted ~tyler September 1, 2016

        Too bad the joint album isn’t real. It was Rhianna’s only chance of going multi platinum. At least she has Samsung.

      • Mark111?️?️?️?️?️?️?️?️?️?️?️?️?️?️?️?️?️?️?️?️?️?️ September 1, 2016

        Avoiding the question. Typical pest.

  32. Kyle September 1, 2016

    It’s obvious Beyonce doesn’t want hit single , Because You can only stream her stuff on Tidal. It all makes since now lol.. If it was available on allowing forms, She could be charting better, She either doesn’t care or is just greedy smh..

  33. HailLegendBeysus September 1, 2016

    LMFAOOOO Where is this 2.6 million albums sold coming from? Bitxh I don’t see it nor can i find receipts for it’s claim!

    LEMONSLAYDE is the best selling 2016 release, the Formation tour is the biggest and best selling tour of 2016 and on top of that her album is the best reviewed and will probably be the most awarded album of 2016. Lmfaoooo!! Y’all see how the Slavi only have singles. ????

      1.3M “pure” sales + 1.4M Samsung purchased albums = 2.7 million albums sold. It’s simple math, learn it instead of “ajehbah”.

      • Blue Ivy Rod September 1, 2016

        Thank you Mark.

      • Lolz September 1, 2016

        The global charts do NOT include those Samsung purchased sales neither do Billboard you guys are so desperate it’s tragic.

      • Mark111?️?️?️?️?️?️?️?️?️?️?️?️?️?️?️?️?️?️?️?️?️?️ September 1, 2016

        The question was where did the 2.6M sales come from. We’re not talking charts, we’re talking sales and Samsung PURCHASED those units. Do I need to give you the definition of the word purchase? I love how you pest think you can decide what counts and what doesn’t. Anti is still in the top ten, but even in this post, pest are discounting it because they don’t agree with streaming, yet BB does. Now you using the rules of BB not counting the Samsung sales. So what is it? Either the stream counts or the Samsung sales count. But that doesn’t matter, because they BOTH were counted into Rihanna bank account. See you. ?

      • Lolz September 1, 2016

        @Mark11 If I didn’t mention billboard she still would not be credited for SELLING 2.6 million in total because she didn’t really sell the copies, Samsung purchased them. Beyonce has SOLD more no matter spin you want to put on it. More people are investing in her album. But I guess you guys would cling to whatever you can because without it your faves numbers are tragic and Beyonces are not.

      • Mark111?️?️?️?️?️?️?️?️?️?️?️?️?️?️?️?️?️?️?️?️?️?️ September 1, 2016

        But you did, so bye bye. And $25M from Samsung is all the investment you need.

      • Lolz September 1, 2016

        Lemonade has still sold more. Anti has not sold 2.6 million. The end.

      • Mark111 /.\ September 1, 2016

        Yet it did and I explained it. But stay stupid.

      • Lolz September 1, 2016

        No it did not. The charts do not count cheats. Show me a receipt of any valuable WW chart source saying her album has sold that much. Until then Lemonade>>>>Beyonce.

      • Lolz September 1, 2016

        Lemonade>>>>>Beyonce>>>>4>>>>>>Anti*

  34. Fatusankoh September 1, 2016

    You go queen bey well deserve yourhard work and talente pays off good luck and more success in all you do

  35. Kyle September 1, 2016

    Y’all celebrating adds on urban radio? Lol I can’t..

  36. IStan4Rihanna. September 1, 2016

    Well, regardless, the song still isn’t going to see success at the top of the Hot 100 anytime soon without ‘streaming’ or heavy ‘Pop radio’ support, unless it’s digital sales florish and it, somehow, manages to peak at the top of I-Tunes.

    .

    Nevertheless, the song is FANTASTIC (it’s my second favourite from the album after ‘Pray You Catch Me’) and, hopefully, it becomes her first Urban or Rhythmic #1 this era. If not, it’ll be her first where she has failed to do so for the first time in her career.

    .

    Sidenote: She has done herself such an injustice this era by not adding her music to ‘SPOTIFY’ or ‘YOUTUBE’ and now she’s even removing live performances from this era from video sharing networks. Why Bey?

    • Blue Ivy Rod September 1, 2016

      I think she is trying to make money off her tour and DVD sales. Her music isn’t going to pay off the distribution and pay cuts of label, tour venues, producers, writers, production, dancers, publicists, etc

  37. Barb B**** September 1, 2016

    She came for blood at the awards.

  38. GurlWepa1989 September 1, 2016

    All the hype with lemonade and according to the hives, the biggest artist in the world, why can’t her album shift Adele’s or Taylor’s number? I mean can she even at least half of their sales? I’m waiting.

  39. King B September 1, 2016

    Oh, the Navy is clinging to free copies! My goodness! Never thought The Biggest Popstar On Earth/ The Black Madonna have to cling to free copies just to make herself an album seller.

  40. RICHIE_RICH September 1, 2016

    Damn y’all both Beyoncé and Rihanna winning

    • Mark111?️?️?️?️?️?️?️?️?️?️?️?️?️?️?️?️?️?️?️?️?️?️ September 1, 2016

      And that’s what so funny. Both are winning in very different ways and that’s OK. Lol

      • RICHIE_RICH September 1, 2016

        True indeed . Happy Gay Pride Markisha from Atlanta!!!! Do you have you outfits together?

    • Briano September 2, 2016

      Naw just rihanna
      Beyonce is smoke and mirrors and label bought pure sales

      • Krista September 2, 2016

        That makes no sense business wise. How tf would they make any profit? Rihanna is the one who needed a company to buy her album in bulk not Beyonce.

  41. FC/JC September 1, 2016

    So much Tea in these comments

  42. BEY>RIH September 1, 2016

    Beyoncè’s Lemonade sales: 2.3 million WW
    1.3 million U.S.
    Frihanna’s Anti sales: 1 million WW
    500k U.S.
    These are pure sales that are counted.

    CASE CLOSED!!

    • wayno September 2, 2016

      Get ready for another single that comes out the gates and FLOPS…

      Rhianna has hits for dayz.

  43. ROCK September 1, 2016

    This constant bickering has got to be unhealthy.
    However,I think lemonade was Beyonce’s last chance to release an album without any smash hit.the gp will not be so forgiving anymore.

  44. Nowqd Reddish tran ivy blobukz Need UK timely Ukuno eremixi September 2, 2016
