Yes he did. And not you honestly stating this when your fave is selling about 10k a week.

ANTI was number 5 this week with 50k, streaming is the future, deal with it.

Rihanna is always higher on kworb than beyonce when they are both inbetween eras or both in the middle of one, she has better catalogue sales than beyonce and her eras last much longer, because her music is what the GP wants.

Drake, he has 18 #1's on Urban Radio the most of any artist ever; and has 50 Top 10's.

And didn't Work have a multi-format radio deal lol? Songs with radio deals are naturally gonna be boosted to the top in the end most times.

All of that is bought so..

So we shouldn't say any "if's, but's and maybe's" when they are based in actual facts but you're going to claim that Rihanna would "literally be on adele level" using an "if" statement?

thats what i'm saying though... we can all if buts and maybe's our faves onto another level, but its not going to change the facts....

Her catalogue sales are nowhere near Beyoncé's. Just FYI.

Not catalogue sales but simply more material to sell.

Since 4 beyonce has been afraid of flopping in the singles department. So now she doesn't release singles officially (but she still promotes them) so she can save face

Having more material doesn't MAKE people buy it

Yes it doesn't change facts but when you have facts in front of you, those don't change either.
Like, we know how many streams the unlisted video got. We know iTunes was topped by Formation 3 months after it had been free. These are facts. No one is claiming Beyoncé got anything she didn't in real life achieve. We are merely stating how given some pretty easy circumstances, these facts would have affected reality.

If you'd like another example… I have a pumpkin. It was 90 pounds when I weighed it three weeks prior to a heaviest pumpkin contest. But I don't enter in the contest. The winning pumpkin was 90 pounds. If I had entered, would I have won? Most likely.

Ya that's an assumption. Or we could say that the 4 era taught her that singles don't matter, or maybe it made her realize that she doesn't want to have to play that game anymore, and that there is more to her work than merely getting a song to be a hit.

There's no fight to have, you're literally just lying. Not surprised though.

someone could release 50 ablums doesn't mean they are going to get 50 times the sales of someone with 2 albums

Kworb doesn't weigh by numbers. Being higher on the chart in Barbados gives you the same number of "points" as being high in the US. Does that make sense?

Well ain't that the truth.

Anyway, the way this thread's question is posed just shows the power and success of Formation.

If we have to sit here and question why a non-single, non-radio release song peaked lower than a single that was sent to radio and which features the biggest urban star right now, then it must really be an achievement to have "blocked" Formation.

Rihanna dominates World wide, Beyonce doesn't is what your saying?
