'Superpower' is on the album, though. It's the only weak song on the album, in my opinion.

Unapologetic is the better album and no one can change that. The Hive continues to be stupid pretending Bey didn't promote the album before hand at all and it just dropped from the sky and landed on iTunes. Let me get you bitches together.
- Beyoncé was allllllll over the place before her album came out, Pepsi deal and all so STOP.
-She teased her album on Tumblr weeks before.
-She knew after her dedicated Hiv's failed to support the '4' era she had to do something different cause literally the entire era FLOPPED.
-She realeased a few songs starting early 2013.. they all flopped and she didn't know what to do anymore.
-She realized no matter what song she released it was going to flop and it was not gaining any interest so she shot music videos for all of them and released the album as a surprise which she KNEW would cause chaos and generate interest in her again.
-Of course the album was the fastest selling album on iTunes THAT WAS THE ONLY PLACE THE ALBUM WAS SOLD FOR DAYS.
-The first person to do anything is going to get extreme recognition for it which is why BEYONCÉ has exceled incredibly. It is not the music itself (Rih makes much better music) it was the release. Do you hear the GP talk about BEYONCÉ and how in depth and visually stunning it is? NO. You hear about how the album was released by surprise (and how cool that was), waddamelon and surfboarTs. That is all. Critics this, critics that, it's all opinion. Some amazing albums have been bashed, and some mediocre albums have received great praise for no reason other than the way it was released and the visuals accompanying it *insert self titled here*.
What y'all don't get is, THE TRADITIONAL STRATEGY WASN'T WORKING FOR HER. So she had to release the album a different way.
And if BEYONCÉ is so incredible and groundbreaking and its success has nothing to do with its release then please tell me why 4 sales are on on par with Unapologetic? Bitch bye.
P.S. I know none of you Hive will actually come with facts instead of delusion, cause that's all y'all are capable of. That and slapping up eachother over Bey's promo tours... I mean the MCWT. So just hand me the WP please and thank you.

How is this even a question? BEYONCÉ doesn't sound rushed and has a much more cohesive theme.

Okay, let me get you together.
- Being all the over the place, has NOTHING to do with promoting the album, considering the fact that her promotion had NOTHING to do with ANY song on the album.
- What are you even talking about? 
- Funny you say 4 flopped when it had bigger opening weak sells than nearly all of her pears, INCLUDING Unapologetic, so you dare go there.
- Once again, only but two of those songs were from the album, and your excluding the fact that weren't even singles, so tell me again how they flopped when they weren't even meant to sell in the first place?
- Well at least you know it was the fastest selling album.
- Being the first is not always a good thing. However, what you fail to realize that what Beyoncé did was a good thing. And you dare come for the music. The music is FAR more credible than anything on Unapologetic. That includes the lyrics AND Vocals (Which you'd have to be complete delusional to argue against, although your response is a gigantic example of your delusion already)
Also, here's some counterexample of your completely delusional statement about how "people only talk about the way it was released and not the music itself"

Call it a coup or just another victory for her mammoth PR apparatus, but consider the alternatives: The strategy probably would have failed if the quality wasn't there, and the album could not have achieved such an impact without its rogue—in spirit, at least—method of distribution.

Not only does “Beyonce” rank as the year’s most accomplished and engaging mainstream pop album by a rather laughable margin, but its calculatedly shrugged-off release strategy can’t help but read as an imperious kiss-off toward the singer’s competitors for the 2013 crown — Lady Gaga, Justin Timberlake, Miley Cyrus, Katy Perry, and even her husband Jay Z — all of whom worked up gallons of sweat and employed every eyeball-grabbing trick in the book to move their product, only to be upstaged by Beyonce’s abrupt digital data-dump.

Picking up when 4 left off, the 17-time Grammy winner (see that number skyrocket next year) stays true to her R&B roots on album number five — with one big difference. Her last opus had a one foot firmly in the past with its warm retro-soul sound, this time around, Third Ward Trill looks to the future with slick urban beats, sparse production and the occasional alt-R&B flourish. It’s a cohesive work of art, not a meaningless collection of singles.

I didn't even read. lol I don't read articles written by Navy.

Anyway, the winner remains BEYONCE since it has already outsold the other one and will win more awards and will be more remembered by people.

First, you can think that Unapologetic while the rest of the world disagrees. Secondly, how can you promote something that no one knows about?
