Billboard’s planned Prince tribute with Madonna has not impressed certain corners of the late singer’s fanbase.

The Pop queen has been tapped to perform at the 2016 Billboard Music Awards and, as at writing, she’s the only act enlisted for the “unmissable” tribute at the May 22nd ceremony.

Angered, a supporter of the Purple one started a petition demanding an amendment to the mono Madge line-up. And it’s gaining traction.

Rihanna‘s ‘ANTI’ era has offered many a visual treat since its launch in 2015.

From the cinematic (and critically divisive) ‘Bitch Better Have My My Money’ to the cool, calm and understated ‘Kiss It Better’, the project’s supporting visuals have gone a long way to tip sales and streams of the project over the 2 million units point in the United States.

Today, her cut ‘Pose‘ does its part to help her commercial cause.

How?

With a little help from Camp Beyonce…

Still rocking across the United States on her hotly-selling ‘Formation’ tour, pop diva Beyonce took to the NRG Stadium (in hometown of Houston, Texas) last night and took the crowd to task belting some of her greatest hits and new numbers found aboard her sixth solo LP, ‘Lemonade.’

But, while the audience inside were on their feet from start to finish, there was another group on their feet and making noise outside the stadium – members of Houston’s ‘Coalition of Police and Sheriffs’ (COPS).

Standing in silent protest a mile away from the facility, the coalition’s assembly was in direct response to the singer’s alleged ‘anti-police’ SuperBowl 50 performance.  See video below:

As chart royalty goes, few can rival Beyonce and Drake in 2016.

Music’s reigning King and Queen have garnered gargantuan sales with their respective albums – ‘VIEWS’ and ‘Lemonade.’

Interestingly, both have managed to do so with digital only releases. Bey opted for a TIDAL streaming launch, before serving up her LP on all digital retailers. Similarly, Drizzy teamed with Apple Music – making his effort available there exclusively for one week.

Now, with both LP’s being made available physically yesterday, will they receive a sales lift?

Find out what the predictions are looking like below…

Said stunt raised eyebrows in earnest when the set was almost immediately certified Platinum – an honor (prior to then) reserved for albums that had sold 1 million.

Today, the narrative grows more bizaare after it was revealed that ‘ANTI’ has somehow been certified x2 Platinum.
