The way Beyonpce stans worry about other girls their releases, maybe if you guys worried as much when RTW(apes) was released it wouldnt have bombed as hard.
Why bother to buy your fav's singles when you know she can sell at least +3 mill albums without radio support. What is J.Low fans excuse for letting her last 5 eras BOMBING so much that she's just a talent show judge now?
