period sis Posted June 18, 2022 Share Posted June 18, 2022 am I missing something ??? is a 500k increase in her Spotify streams supposed to be bad?? I feel like that's a lot for anyone not named Taylor Swift or someone who's hasn't been that great on Spotify for the past few years. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Shelter Posted June 18, 2022 Share Posted June 18, 2022 Bey loves her live instruments and strings. I hope it’s stuff that still works live. Instrumentals like this would be so good Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

SashaDevachelli Posted June 18, 2022 Share Posted June 18, 2022 Yknow, I know the important thing to worry about is the album being good, not the charts. I already know the album is good, it’s going to be her magnum opus. I’m just glad that the b*tch is finally going to PUSH an album, if by some miracle she bombs, At least put up a fight, she did what she could, she gave us a traditional rollout, she gave us visuals, something these lesser hags don’t know how to do. She gave us quality music, I will gladly take it and eat my food. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If she were to post it herself, it'd be more. But again, she needs work on Spotify and Renaissance should get the ball rolling. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It’ll be the best of her post-4 artistry and standards meets the best of her pre-ST unadulterated boppery meets vintage homosexuality. And I want at least one track like this: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Machete Posted June 18, 2022 Share Posted June 18, 2022 The 500K boost numbers are mid. Not bad, not amazing. My fellow insecure bored Monsters are being lame trying to drag it, and some Twitter Hive are being lame trying to praise it as her "impact!!!". For comparison the blonde girl gained 1.2M after RED TV announcement and 4.2M after folklore announcement (but the album coming out that same night obvi impacted more). Renaissance boost is average. The real cause for concern isn't the boost it gave, but where she is at overall. She is BEHIND Jay on US Spotify Only #18 for most streamed females daily WW. Her team definitely needs to work on building up her Spotify presence, which she once was a leader on but has fallen after years of neglect. This is why I recommend a lead single before the album, as a way to not only build hype, but to continue to gauge the interest on multiple platforms and see what needs targeting.

Island Goddess Posted June 18, 2022 Share Posted June 18, 2022 (edited) The energy has definitely got more positive in here I am really intrigued to see what she and her team have planned for the streaming platforms/promo/radio Im really nervous they are going to find a way to F things up And she can’t afford to anymore Edited June 18, 2022 by Island Goddess Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I don’t think this “boost” is any real indication of how well she would do on Spotify. For example, Red TV accumulated more streams than folklore in its first 24 hours despite Red TV having a smaller boost after it was announced. I believe she has Apple Music on lock but some work definitely needs to be done on Spotify. If she gets the right playlisting and a proper lead single roll out she’ll do great. 50 mil or more in the first 24 hours would be great! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cbreezy Posted June 18, 2022 Share Posted June 18, 2022 (edited) Those Drake numbers are....interesting. He's basic for sure, but unproblematic. So I won't go in... BUT.... I do think it's yet more proof that the whole "surprise" album thing doesn't really work as much anymore sales wise. It's funny how cyclical things are. Once upon a time, the well-oiled roll-out generated big sales. Then shock and awe became the "in" thing People are saying it's because of him going EDM. But the reality is that he would benefitted from automatic Drake hype streams and then curiosity streams too. IMO, it's the lack of pre-hype. I say all of this to say, Bey has once again savvily read the room at the right time and made the necessary adjustments to set herself up well. Have no idea if it's happenstance or research, but her going back to traditional release will help the era a lot.

Drake would've probably done better with more of a buildup As for Bey, based on the profile pic removal, she could've done pretty ok with a surprise release imo. But it's much more refreshing that she's changed things up Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Planet Mars Posted June 18, 2022 Share Posted June 18, 2022 Drake's numbers are not great because he JUST put out another mediocre album less than a year ago. Drake doesn't allow anybody to miss him, he's constantly taking a s*it on the charts, year after year. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
