No, she doesn't. It's quite obvious. Otherwise she would actually perform and promote her singles, and not keep her newest signature song, Formation, unlisted on YouTube and give in to the other streaming services.
Its not just that.
Always remember what she did with Flawless + remix, Mine, and 7/11. The self-sabotage was REAL!
I just went to the site, clicked the download button, got the file and closed Tidal.
If they wanted me to "check out" Tidal they needed to make it Tidal exclusive, but it was not.
Or do you want me to say "she wanted Formation to go #1!!!" in order to fit your narrative?
Making Formation a Tidal exclusive was obviously a marketing strategy! Stop denying it

Don't remind me. She has had so many potential HITS just fall to the wind. I have literally cursed her name about this very thing. So annoying. But they don't matter, as she has proven. Not every artist can do that.
There's no narrative. Making you browse to the site is an insensitive to make you check out other stuff, and eventually bring you to subscribe. Is it that hard to understand ?
And how does this relate to whether she cares about hit or not?
She's greedy for money but not by pushing hit singles, that much is obvious for now.
Actually she does care. She seemingly does everything she can to make sure that her songs don't become hits. Annoying and frustrating af. I was ok with her effing up the BEYONCÉ singles, but I'm super disappointed about Formation. Such a great and powerful message, hindered. Makes me seethe!!
It's true. Just look how messy this era has been when it comes to the release of the singles.
The Formation video could have been on VEVO since february after the SuperBowl and the single could have been released right after that to itunes but NOPE
The Hold Up video could have been uploaded to VEVO right after the VMA performance but NOPE.
The Lemonade singles (at least) could have been put on Spotify but NOPE.
Let's not forget that Hold Up was asking for a WW single release right after the Lemonade album was dropped. Instead she released Sorry and uploaded the video weeks after
Spotify, Apple Music, Pandora; to name a few...... You can only find her new material on Tidal.
"Otherwise she would actually perform and promote her singles, and not keep her newest signature song, Formation, unlisted on YouTube and give in to the other streaming services."
We're talking about Formation. Formation is only on Tidal. She'd be more than happy to put her stuff on Spotify and Apple Music if it wasn't for Jay-Z failed business.

The Hive is saying she's sabotaging herself purposefully, I'm telling you she's trying to save Tidal. Y'all are claiming she's not on Spotify because she doesn't want to have bigger success like ?
No shade but if you want the lyrics to be honest and raw, surely you'd write them yourself? That way, it feels honest coming from you.
This is so stupid. It's been said a MILLION times already by these writers and producers that Bey is heavily involved in EVERYTHING. Yes, she doesn't write all the lyrics, but she is part of the process of crafting them, changing them up a bit so that they feel more personal, coming up with new melodies, etc.. Just doesnt just take them like she gets them, she completely changes them up melodically and also makes sure to connect with the songs -> e.g. Resentment.

Do any of the songs Whitney sang, but didn't write, lack emotional depth or raw honesty? Nope. You don't have to write a song for it to be personal or reflect your honesty.

Her last album pre TIDAL wasn't on Spotify for a year
And you're playing the stereotype of the typical Beyoncé hater who attempts to drag her in his signature and threads, yet secretly listens to and loves her music. Tragic.
That wasn't me sweetie, but congrats on losing the ability to read.
Lol I love beyonce and mentioned in this thread how i have listened to all her albums so how am I "secretly" listening to her music but whatever and Cosmikel was a hive member and i found the comment funny.

You got the song for free without having to register or subscribe tho... It is in a way a marketing strategy but it still does not prove that Beyoncé cares about hits.

She released the Flawless remix with Nicki Minaj, one of the most popular rappers in the game right now, on SOUNDCLOUD. No video, no download link, just a soundcloud link where you could download it for free.
If anything, 7/11 is the definition of a lyrically meaningless, radio reaching, trend hopping song. It's sounds like a Migos reject and right down to the cadence of her verses.
