Billboard: BEYONCE not R&B
BEYONCE is spending its second week on top of the Billboard 200 but it's ineligible to appear on the R&B Albums chart because Billboard seems to consider it a Pop record.

Do you agree with Billboard?

No, because there are rnb songs on there so how can they say it's just pop

Beyoncé has always been the perfect blend of R&B and pop.
Billboard is being a lil silly, but it's whatever. It's not like this is going to take sales away from her lol.

Well then, that was uncalled for
How the hell is 4 considered r&b but this isn't?

Lool interesting.
But songs are charting on the R&B songs chart...Hmmm
Blow, No Angel, Rocket, Jealous, Mine, Superpower and Blue (arguable) are R&B to me.

I noticed on my ichunes when I bought it that it was labeled as pop, thought it was a little off but I guess

Just as R&B as 4 and I believe that charted on the R&B charts.

Bey herself implied this is a pop record didn't she?

It seems like a Rihanna album, a conjunction of multiple genres, if you consider Rihanna pop then this album is pop.
