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:
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!
I KNOW RIGHT….HOLD ROSE FROM LIKE BELOW 200 TO NO 13…AND ITS ALREADY GOLD AGAIN AND NOW GAINING MOMENTUM.
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!
where do you guys find info about the amount of sales an album/single has?
The power of promotion. Everytime Bey flops, she does it to herself smh
Beyonce and Jay Z think they are above promoting for some reason.
This b**** needs to put the song on VEVO and on spotify…IT is already gold anyways..lol
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
I think she’s going to take a long break after this..definitely see her having another kid and probably directing.
You mean retiring?
How are you tired of seeing her and she just came back? You tired of her slaying. Aint no baby bih.
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.
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.
Well, it says a lot about her taste in music, no wonder she does songs like Formation and Sorry.
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.
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.
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.
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.
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.
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.
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.
What Becky line, who’s Becky???
That’s what we are all still trying to figure out. Will the real Becky please stand up?
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.
AND WITH A NINE WEEK NO 1 SINGLE, FRIH COULD NOT SELL OUT A 11K ARENA IN THE US……LMAO
Okay, so are you not going to address the shade that Mark bestowed on TGJ and the HIVE?
Don’t mind him, he’s just mad because Auntie went tumbling down 9 spots on Itunes WW charts dispite having a VMA performance. ?????
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
Still mad Beyoncé snatched Frihanna’s side burns at the VMA’S and left her to perform with a mullet! ????
.
http://imagesmtv-a.akamaihd.net/uri/mgid:file:http:shared:mtv.com/news/wp-content/uploads/2016/08/rihanna-vma-16-3-1472440718.jpg?quality=.8&height=1196.8&width=800
Oh look, more off subject deflection. Hahahaha! I can’t!
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!
More deflection and wrong info. lol
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.
EXACTLY!!!!!!! SAY IT LOUDER FOR THE NAZI TO HEAR IN THE BACK.
P.S JOHNVIDA, U ARE QUICKLY BECOMING MY FAV ON THIS BLOG……ALWAYS SPILLING FLAVOURED TEA..
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.
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.
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.
Whats the point in posting that when Lemonade has outsold Anti and is continuing to outsell Anti.
AND HOW MUCH AS CANTI ACTUALLY SOLD THO????? I’LL WAIT…
Why don’t you go ahead and post the pure sales as well?
ANTI SALES TO DATE – 2,687,000.00 – pure sales + Streams
physical sales – 687,000.00
LEMONADE – 1,457,000.00 – phyiscal sales
“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?
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…
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
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.”
.
?☕?☕?☕?☕?☕?☕
YEAH I SAW THAT…GUESS LOOSEBOOTY WON’T GET WHAT HE WISHED FOR..LMAO
Beyonce is about her money … that’s y u can’t stream it anywhere but Tidal or whatever
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.
Why? Mariah is doing great. She´s almost 50 years old for crying out loud! 🙂
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=SvGTi9EOgeY
Pathetic..lol.No one cares????
ITS ALREADY GOLD SIS…SEETHE
Poor Anti. Why isn’t benefiting for the VMAs when it was supposed to be her night lol. Motha Bey took her shine AGAIN.
Thats cute but receipts show that she did benefit
Billboard 200 Week of Sept 10th
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.
Lol. Is that it?
point is your logic is flawed. #TryAgain
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.
Still missed the point. Take your L and move on.
What’s your point though?
You do realize that chart does not include the full week after the VMAs….
You mean like how its gonna be high then lemonade on the charts? Or how LOTB is now in the top 50 on itunes?
And it still hasn’t outsold Lemonade. And isn’t even close to outselling it either.
not what i said tho… how many weeks has anti been top ten now? how long has lemonade been out again? goodnight
OK..BUT HOW MANY HAS IT ACTUALLY SOLD.???…U KNOW LIKE SALES, THE ART OF BUYING AND SELLING…IN CASE U WERE CONFUSED.
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.
haven’t looked at its WW sales in a long time but its usa actual sales excluding should be around 1.5mil albums sold.
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
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.
TEA!!!!!!!!!!
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
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.
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
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.
Huh..? It’s exactly like having a points card like Airmiles or Aeroplan. If you cannot understand that logic then you could understand streaming.
I understand streaming and it is not impressive and you know it. Pure sales will always trump it.
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.
Who said it was anyone fault? Lemonade has still outsold Anti. The end.
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.
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.
I love this song so much slayy
Beyonce is not about her FANS, she is about her money… no streaming in 2016 B**** BYE
U mean Sony, she doesn’t own her masters
Lemonade’s current pure sales are 1.3 Million in the U.S alone.
her sales 1,457,00.00 worldwide.
She’s sold 2.3 million WW get your facts straight
Even if thats true Rih still sold more and is charting and making more money than Lemonade.
Anti has only sold 1.2 million WW LOL
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?
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.
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
just like not having one doesnt mean you do.
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.
& drink in love also went 3x platinum may I remind you . What about your fave ?
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.
The numbers don’t lie and we all know who stole the show again. The sinking ships must be seething.
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.
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
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.
If that’s true then why are y’all comparing Beyonce to the “pop girls”?
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.
yep and it’s clear, old and tired. They’re scum. lol
The fact that they cannot even stay on topic, they are literally pathetic
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
The HIVE are pressed but lucky numbers do not lie like Beyonce stans
And number show Lemomade>>>>Anti
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
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.
Who said I was selecting. Overall WW album sales show Lemonade has sold more than anti darling.
@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.
@Lolz That still puts Rih at 2.687 million
@Blue ivy. Where?
Jun 15
Chart News @chartnews
WW sales: @rihanna, ANTI 23,000 (1,049,000 total).
musichart which tracks ww album sales has it at 2.5mil
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
@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.
And RIAA do not count sales they count shipments. All this time on this website and you still dont know the difference.
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
Again. Show me those receipts.
I just did if you care to scroll up
Gurl no you didn’t just post this damn receipt and prove me wrong. Nobody’s here for your wayward estimations.
And even with the subject in mind, Needed Me is #2 while Sorry is #12. EVen on urban radio, Beyonce is a lessor. Hahahahahaha!
OMG IM IN TEARS
R&B Album Chart. Lemonade #3, Anti #4
Rhythmic Chart: Needed Me #5, Anything from Beyonce N/A
.
So Rihanna is also winning with the #ProBlacks. Hahahahahaha!

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.
Did y’all see Beyoncé is going to be doing an Oprah interview!!!! YAY!!!! Hopefully she performs some SLAYMONADE songs! She def coming for 3m in pure sales!
What?????
Omg really? I’m so ready!
despite the shade, I love Hold up and it is my favourite song off the album
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.
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***
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
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.
Lol you got all riled up and excited for no damn reason. Po’ tang.
Proof of me being excited? Or did you, like so many times, made it up with no evidence?
Too bad the joint album isn’t real. It was Rhianna’s only chance of going multi platinum. At least she has Samsung.
Avoiding the question. Typical pest.
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..
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”.
Thank you Mark.
The global charts do NOT include those Samsung purchased sales neither do Billboard you guys are so desperate it’s tragic.
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. ?
@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.
But you did, so bye bye. And $25M from Samsung is all the investment you need.
Lemonade has still sold more. Anti has not sold 2.6 million. The end.
Yet it did and I explained it. But stay stupid.
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.
Lemonade>>>>>Beyonce>>>>4>>>>>>Anti*
You go queen bey well deserve yourhard work and talente pays off good luck and more success in all you do
Y’all celebrating adds on urban radio? Lol I can’t..
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?
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
She came for blood at the awards.
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.
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.
Damn y’all both Beyoncé and Rihanna winning
And that’s what so funny. Both are winning in very different ways and that’s OK. Lol
True indeed . Happy Gay Pride Markisha from Atlanta!!!! Do you have you outfits together?
Naw just rihanna
Beyonce is smoke and mirrors and label bought pure sales
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.
So much Tea in these comments
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!!
Get ready for another single that comes out the gates and FLOPS…
Rhianna has hits for dayz.
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.
Awesome
Beyonce is a joke and so are her fans
@briano you should have remained a c** stain on your mothers face!
