Trap Queen was the #3 song of the year....overall. Miles bigger and more relevant than all those others.
But yeah, BBHMM didn't even go Top 10. Nor was it that relevant culturally. Still a bop tho
Yes it was.
But I was mostly talking about within the URBANS/to the Urban community specifically. Since it's apparently this huge Urban hit. Regardless, they were all bigger. As was IDFWU
If BEYONCE really releases her album right after and embarrasses her.
Kanye's about to flop on February 11th too (for some reason he's releasing on a THURSDAY, so he'll have 1 day of sales?...)
So much is about to happen. I live.
GRAMMYs are coming in two and a half weeks. If Adele just embarrasses everyone...

CIL is one of his favorite songs of the decade. And when his label offered him Kelly Rowland to collab with, he wrote that he was extremely honored to work with a member of "Beyoncé & Co".

I feel like I'm leaving things out.
But I sense a 400k opening, at least.
Well, the Navy was confident themselves on R8's performance...

Seeing as though the Beyoncé era ended a day after the album came out, yes.
R8 will have longevity and successful singles, not a flash in the pan era

Well, only Music of the Sun sold less records than BEYONCE, so I'm gonna say yes.
As for singles, the lead single only will probably outsell all BEYONCE and 4 singles counted together. So let's not
