Billboard isn't a source. They're a reporting agency.
Billboard box score is based on what is reported to them.
Billboard charts are based on numbers reported by neilson soundscan.
When billboard publish these things like above, we can say they're accurate because billboards sources are recognised as the official numbers.
When billboard run a story like this, it's an opinion piece. It's not based on official sources, it's based on the opinion of the writer and the opinion of someone is open to criticism. Especially when their article displays such ignorance as to label Beyonce' as the person that created the blueprint of the surprise release. As i said, she's perhaps the first Major artist to adopt it but she didn't create the blueprint. If other artists before her have surprise released it's just common sense that she wasn't the creator of the blueprint.

Preach.
And that's very sad. Although... they be comparing social statement with beautiful ass gyrating created for entertainment only. How can you talk about wrong or right anymore...
I mean, guys. I do think "Beyoncé" inspired Teyana Taylor and Keyshia Cole, or maybe even 50 Cent to shoot videos to every song on their latest albums (not because this concept was created in 2013, but I'm sure they'd never think of such move before Beyonce pushed it to mainstream

), but this time the "reach" is overblown.
