Shakira doesn't have to bandwagon in social isssues or try to be controversial to get attention, her music speaks for itself. Chantaje is already bigger worldwide than Beyonces career.

 You wish.
 
The Formation World Tour is bigger than anything and everything Shakira related.

Then again, Shakira had to jump on probably the hottest and newest act from South America aka Maluma in order to get some sort of recognition again. 
 
And the last part is ******** and you know it.

 But La Bicicleta was a huge hit before Chantaje.

 Formation. Even considering it's not available for streaming. Chantaje isn't a hit outside of spanish speaking countries.

 The sensitivity.   
Just deal with it, Chantaje is bigger than Formation which was a non-event outside the USA.. Shakira already gave Beyonce one global hit before, she's bigger and more beloved globally     Perhaps Beyonce should give her a call for her next effort, their collaboration might gain a lot of really neccessary global interest.

 People are confused. Shakiras songs are rarely huge, she's just a giant streaming force. Yall probably think ICRTFY was a global smash too. Ignorance.

 Now it's sensitivity.
 
Y'all think y'all can find threads like this to shade Bey then have every shady Rihanna thread closed it's wack. And transparent. 
 
Shakira and Beyoncé are both more talented than the rest so that doesn't even bother me. You were saying?

 Idk what that other song is, but Formation is one of the biggest songs of the millennium, so I'll go with that.

 Except it's nominated for Song and Record of the year.
 
And is critically acclaimed which is more important since sales are dying.

Formation was the most controversial leadsingle by the biggest superstar of our world and was performed at the SB, one of the biggest shows on earth. What makes you think Chantaje is bigger? Youtube-Views? Itunes? That's just plain stupid.

 Chantaje is a cute streaming monster and it's a bop and a half but it does not compete with Formation's impact.

 No, the only one confused here are you hun. Us, people who live in South América, Know how massive and inacabable Shakiras music is.
 
And before you say anything, more people live in SA than they do in the USA. Not to mention her songs are huge in Spain and other markets.
 
Just because these places dont buy music doesnt mean there arent hits.
