Those two examples are of two huge artists with years of solid hits behind them.
Go back in time and ask yourself would 'I Kissed a Girl' have been a hit without promo or a plug for the artist by Madonna? Great song as it is would 'Crazy in Love' have been a hit for Beyonce if not her time with Destiny's Child?
New artist don't have that luxury. Neither do artists that never quite "made it" with their previous albums but are coming into their own - those do need a promotional push.
