There aren't any artists this year whose promotion costed that much, PRISM and Beyone would probably come close. Remember that having a commercial air once already costs like 100.000$, but having your tv commercial air multiple times, having videos for all songs, etc. No wonder that Bey's label had no money for other artists (as said by an artist from there): Beyonce's promotion is massive.
woo this gaga stan, how much money went into the flying dress
BEYONCE is such a slap in the face to everyone. The production reminds me of Pure Heroine, but more diverse. The videos remind me of Golden Age Gaga, except more restrained and refined. The song structures remind me of Timberlake, except without wasted time or misguided direction. The sensuality reminds me of Rihanna, but without the trashiness.
My friend texted me to say Rihanna is outgrossing Bey because his uneducated ass finally worked out how to read a billboard tour chart.
I had to read him to hell and BACK.
