Pretty Hurts is a flop.
XO was an underperformance.

That's Why You're Beautiful is slaying me today

You and I both know nothing is coming..like ever...

You always got to bring "XO" up

What did superpower do on the charts??

You can't really call any of singles flop given the circumstances.

They both flopped, nephew.

I don't know what's more pathetic you not recognizing PH as a flop or your belief that XO is going to be a worldwide smash in 2015.

XO got Dark Horsed.

How would y'all feel if Bey released a new album this time in 2015 and released NO singles, but released a new music video every month for 11 months? I think it's a great idea. Instead of worrying about promoting singles she would be promoting the album through visuals every month without having to do typical promo.

She already did that during 4.

Slayonce you so bitter about "XO"

You guys are obviously not aware this new era will be on some IASF level ish

No, she didn't and if she did where's my video for Slay Over, Schoolin Flops, Lay Up Under Jesus, I Flop, Rather Slay Young, I Miss God, I Slept Here, etc.? She did what she did for 4 because she was preggers and had to change her promo plans.

What I'm talking about is in the same vein as the visual album, with delayed visuals to help promote the ALBUM over the course of a year. 1. It keeps anticipation up for the fans 2. and the era wouldn't seem over after the first 4 mos.

I do want a new album, but in a traditional way. She needs the dual single format a la IASF again and simplistic, consistent imagery with promo. She's proven she can sell albums, she's proven she can sell tours, and of course she's proven she can be number 1 and be iconic - she just needs to remind some people.

But if it is just a platinum edition, I'll be happy. A nice way to tie up all the SoundCloud releases and what not.

I embraced the fact that it flopped and I've moved on.

XO doesn't even have a proper flop name because it's so stupid. Ugh.

And you always bring up Superpower even though I don't stan for it. It's just the coolest title for a username. A great way to pay my respects to the Queen.
Maybe I should put my birthday in my username

Yes please.

This would literally fix everything I didn't like about Self Titled's era. The content was her best, but the way we received it, while effective, left little room to build on. Other than remixes, which while welcome, aren't album sellers. Or even single sellers when they aren't on iTunes.

Now a "Lay up under me" stan trying "XO"
