I get what everyone is saying but I would be devastated if Katy released all of her music videos at the same time. I mean there's no excitement. Nothing to look forward to! But that's my opinion. No shade on beyonce, if this works for her and her fans than who am I to judge? "Do yo motherf****** thing!"
There's going to be a lot to look forward to. Beyonce is one of the greatest performers so that'll be interesting to see her bring it to the stage.
No. Beyonce's album is massive commercial and critical success that's being heralded by industry setsiders as game-changing. Only an idiot would sacrafice huge album sales for a cheap, measly hit $1.29 single.
Honestly, the music she delivered on this album is amazing so album sales and single success isn't going to affect me in any way. I already got everything I wanted from this album and the performances will just be an extra treat. But to answer your question; no.
Not at all, the purpose of singles is to sell the album.
People wouldnt even release singles if they could sell the entire album like Beys is selling.

These type of statements are depressing. I'm not here for Beyoncé becoming U2.
The type of artist we never hear on radio and who are sustained by just being
"album sellers" and "touring artists." Beyoncé is too young for that mess, man.
Vin, you need to settle down on this one. She has sold 1m albums with absolutely no promo the GP doesn't even know what singles mean. Give radio time to pick it up and for Beyoncé to actually promote the singles before coming after the singles success.

In this day and age, not too many people can obtain platinum status, in the timeframe we're discussing, and snatch 1 or 2 hit singles
Not to mention SNATCHING a 200M+ grossing tour as well.

Agreed, but I want to hear Beyoncé on the radio. This is the point. I want to see
the radio hits on Billboard and hear her on the radio. I don't feel that's asking much.
