West God is one of the best songs of the year, still won't change the fact that Lana is done and no remix is going to save ha.

Well...

Decline from Femme Fatale to BJ: 1/3 of previous release.

Decline from BTD to Ultra: 1/5 (or 1/6 if you wanna inflate) of previous release.

I bet Ultraviolence will outsell both Britney albums mentioned!

Not too much on Alicia OffKeys.

I agree

why can't Beyst be a hitmaker during the digital age like Alicia?
Why does the global GP prefer Alicia?

At The 2014 Glastonbury festival Dolly Parton opened her set with her own Country version of this song

Girl on Fire having an impact on LEGENDS

[Guero]

Alicia Has Keys To My Boyfriends Apartment used to make good music.

Niche acts. Don't count.

-

King proves that it's possibe for R&B acts to have nice sales. There's no reason for Alicia, Brandy and Usher (and other local flops) to be the flops they are! Like R&B is local so it's understandable to not be huge WW but to even be a flop in the US?! Not to mention the god awful music. Giving R&B a bad name! Is King just supposed to carry the entire genre on her back?

[Whatevaaaaa]

I mean what is it about Beyonce that makes her so undesirable to Asians/Latin Americans/most Europeans?
Maybe the real question is why does less than a quarter of the world like her(more like ten percent actually).
Meanwhile 88 million plays on Spotify later and Drunk in the Projects is platinum in one country and its only accolade is Best Collaboration at the BET Awards.
Alicia stays winning.

Grandmadonna, pls stop it.

Maybe the world would accept bey if she learned a craft.
Like cooking or addition...perhaps reading or speaking.
All things she would have learned had she graduated from high school(which alicia did actually 2 years early as valedictorian with a scholarship to Columbia) but luckily for her vulva Matthew Knowles saw fit to separate Beyonce from other men and keep her to himself.
Beyhive tries to shade him but Beyst would be both an imbecile AND poor had it not been for Matthews tutelage.
