It's promo dumbass, because of it she has more exposure to the public, that way people are more inclined to purchase it as they are aware of it.
Do you not know how promo works...
OK, no shade, but what about Work? It's been #1 for over TWO MONTHS and Beyonce will outsell it in just a couple of days. That's bigger promo, dumbass.
Why do we always have to pit Bey and Rih against eachother
Both are having KILLER years and doing it better than pretty much everyone else. And they are practically he only two successful black females. It's sad.
"Bigger first week seller"... Or do you mean bigger album seller/artist in general?
Exactly. Beyoncé is the bigger artist and has the bigger brand/name, although the Navy and ATRL would mislead you to believe otherwise. Not that hard to comprehend. When she releases it is an EVENT. Even CNN covered this release in the middle of the Presidential Election coverage.
How?
She is though. The amount of blogs and articles there are about him cheating and her incorporating that into her music.. even if it isn't true people are still assuming it. She also had a hbo special for the album, actually has a banner and is listed in new music, everyone with an iTunes account is getting emails about the release of the album. She has so many factors as to why she is doing so well.
Okay. If Rihanna did all that, she still was going to do 250K at best first week. Go outside.
I mean, Beyoncé has a #1 album but Rihanna has a 9 week #1 smash hit, and Beyoncé hasn't had that in 7 years now. They both are winning in different lanes.
Wow, you still use that 9 week #1? What if Bey released Formation and it destroyed Work?
Death @ some of y'all acting surprised. The feud exists because this is ATRL and the Hive and navy hate each other. Stop acting like this is your first time at a rodeo. The Hive has been listening to "Bey hasn't topped Itunes in over 303983008 years " so yeah, the pettiness is to be expected.
Like someone said, they're lucky she didn't release Formation months ago or y'all would have absolutely NO ammo, not that you have much now.
