Her album is $15. Yes she does.

662k was at full price too, though.

Jennifer, do you think Christmas freeze could affect XO?

It doesn't usually affect new songs. At least not much.

It'll end up like 20/20 experience

But umm didn't the 20/20 experience still outsell your faves in the long run or am I missing something?

Taylor, Bruno, P!nk and Lana sold more

Sales & Acclaim. No one else is doing it.

The WW sales will be huge on Christmas if they don't **** up the physical releases in other countries.

Brazil, for example. 4 sold over 120k in the first months or whatever. The Beyoncé sales will be huge (if it's not overpriced) here again

Let's not do too much, though. Alexz does have a point. Beyonce is giving away 14 songs and 17 videos for 16 dollars. Most normal albums are that price (Eminem, Gaga, 1D, etc) for just the songs. 17 videos is $20 worth and buyers are getting it for free.

But since 16 dollars is still a substantial amount of money, nobody cares/it doesn't matter. Bey/Columbia came with a genius marketing scheme and they deserve to reap all the benefits of this risk.

Good Lord.
It's like in a week Gaga & Bey have switched places on ATRL
Except Gaga is getting it even worse cause the general Public is in on it.

What if Amazon discounts Bey's album themselves for exposure?

Can they discount it without Beyoncé agreeing to it?

Retailers can sell an album at whatever price they choose as long as they buy the album full price from record labels.

I'm not sure how it works digitally, though.

Well they actually had hits.
Has Justin after Suit & Tie?
I don't really keep up with the charts, but I honestly haven't heard anything by him since Mirrors..

[YR.]

20/20 could've been a 10 million seller, JT messed it up. But I don't care because Part 2 is flawless and people are sleeping on it, it's insanely good. The King of Pop I saw him at Rock In Rio and i'm still shaking tbh

[chilluminati]

It's been an amazing three days for Beyonce.

The Carter family and their love for Franklin

I don't think XO is gonna gain THAT much traction before the holiday freeze tbh, so it'll still be like a brand new song afterwards.

In my opinion, they should've just let the album sell and let radio fiddle around with the songs for the next few weeks and then release the single at the top of the year after the holidays.

Ummm well, even if it doesnt it will STILL outsell ARTPOP by at least a million copies by the time it stops selling off of "hype" and "excitement".

The sheer ****ing nerve of this bitch saying the word longevity when Gaga hyped ARTPOP for YEARS and still got popped in the throat by EVERYONE.

Yall trying Britney when she has had her albums, this is her 8th? Will Gaga make it to album #8?
