3.5m x $17 = $59.5 million.

Even if it did cost 50 million to make the album ( which it didn't )

At 15.99 and 2.2 million copies sold in America
That's over 31 million dollars in the states alone

Song of the year. No kidding.

Apple takes 1/3 of that

I never thought I'd have the pleasure of speaking to Jay and Bey's business manager.
Tell me more.

How can you not love him

b. No it didn't cost 50 million to make the album. The dude in the interview said he wasn't even paid cause they didn't use his songs. It was about the opportunity for most of those who were there.

$50 million is like some MJ level production with live orchestras, an on-site monkey farm, and a studio daycare.

Ok I will. You didn't hear this from me but

They asked Katy to invest in Tidal but she was too broke after bribing Forbes to fabricate receipts in her favour.

do artists still make $2.50 an album?

I think they confuse the Pepsi deal for that.

Wasn't the majority used for the music videos and not the making of the actual album, though?

my thoughts exactly, the truth you've been spewing today
Who tf cares how much it cost to make it's a career highlight of hers, sold 4m copies with next to no promo and actually had proper impact (not the kind where you say that outfit!!!! but by actually influencing the music industry to shift to a different day to release)

Well now I feel I was lied to. I will have to smack/smash my sources a bit

aRIH has accepted it.

Bernie is still in denial.

Did you watch the BBHMM BTS? The equivalent of doing nothing is doing nothing.

That's not Bey. Or any other popstar. Rihanna is literally the only major one not involved in ANY part of her work (except like choosing album covers).

Of course fans of manufactured untalented pop "artists" are prasing Beyuki and her "BEYONCE" album which wasn't wrote by her

Nothing surprising here.

Not you using a random study regarding IQ, when the IQ score itself is based on flawed assumptions. Try again.

And yes, disregard everything I just said because you can't say otherwise. People who spendttheir entire lives working in the music and entertainment industry PRAISE Beyoncé for her artistry. And I can and will provide the receipts if needed

Albums don't cost $50 million

Chinese Democracy is considered to be the most expensive album ever recorded and it only costed $13 million

Most of the music videos looked low budget and were filmed on location to reduce costs so I doubt thats where the $50 million was spent on either

Lina Morgana ain't saying nothing
