The proof is there, y'all just choose to pretend its not real because it doesn't fit the narrative you try so hard to force as the truth.

Just like the thread doesn't mention anything about "albums and tickets", yet Kisuke is mentioning them every second?
And considering she's still nowhere to be found on streaming services, shouldn't her "Single sales" be impressive enough to chart for more than 1 week in the top 10 of Hot100?

Thanks for admitting that you are off topic.

I was surprised at how well the Lemonade tracks and singles sold all things considered. It makes me question if she can do better than she does normally.

Streaming is the biggest factor in single success in recent years.
Her music is deliberately withheld from mainstream streaming services therefore stifling the success of the single.
Nothing more, nothing less.
It's nothing to do with the quality of her music, given the critical acclaim heaped upon her last three albums.
It's nothing to do with a lack of relevancy given her ability to start viral trends, break records, sell very well on album charts and sell out stadiums.
More people have attended the Formation World tour (spending an average of $120 for the privilege) than purchased any artists album (except for Beyoncé & Adele) in 2016.
There are posters in here whose fave took near half a calendar YEAR to reach Gold. Inability to sell is really not a discussion they should be partaking in.

Her success nowadays is overrated... ok she has touring cuz everyone knows her shows are great but speaking of her music/singles..it does not connect anymore like it used to her last known song here is halo..her album sales are great but nothing to brag about. Lemonade in fact is a non event outside of the anglophonic sphere.

Beyoncé has set/broke ... album, single, touring & streaming records this year alone. & will soon break an award record as well (hopefully).
Not musical relevant, bish where?

Lemonade's singles were front loaded just like ST. They debuted high but fell out the following week.

And you're aware of the reason for that, but unsurprisingly you made this troll thread to try and drag Beyoncé as you continue to be pressed by her success. How sad for you.

That's what happens when there is no streaming, music video or radio deal to sustain it.
