However, I'm really starting to think that she doesn't truly understand what she's doing. Did she really mean to make the Formation video unlisted? Like, what was the point of that? And now, she releases Daddy Lessons (feat. Dixie Chicks) to itunes a week later and then puts it on Spotify. Like, that's just bad management. What is the point of that? And then she releases certain videos to Vevo months too late. Like, why would she put the videos up on Vevo at all if her aim is to avoid commercial success?
I really don't understand her anymore. Like, I'm never going to have 0.000000001% of the success she has had, so who am I to question her tactics.

It is bad management, PERIOD. She's overexposing her self in the media and not even reaping the damn benefits. Why is it that racist FOX News can drag Bey on its evening programs and write article after article about her blackness gaining ad revenue from clicks
all while sabotaging Formation, Bey lost out on..
1) Vevo ad revenue
2) Track sales
3) Streaming revenue
Fine, fast forward a few months to Lemonade. She has her HBO premiere...does she immediately put the album up for sale? No, she puts it on Tidal with no announcement of when it will be available for purchase. (Meanwhile Lemonade, Becky with the good hair, hold up are going viral) She eventually puts Lem on sale a few days later...Sorry is overexposed while she has...
1) No vevo ad revenue
2) No streaming
...To keep it afloat, fine. She performs Daddys Lessons on the CMAs, overexposed yet again...she links a free download on SoundCloud...then puts it on sale and for the first time this ENTIRE era puts it on all streaming platforms.
Ridiculous
a re-release looks more believable now, huh
