Planet Mars Posted April 23, 2022 Share Posted April 23, 2022 This thread descending into a Stan war over a flop song I only listened to Beyoncé's part and I didn't care for it and I wasn't gonna sit and listen to Eminem anyway so yeah, it's a pass. I prefer her pop girl collabs ala. Shakira, Gaga and Meg, something the gays can wink their teeth into. Nobody asked for an Eminem ft. and I'm 100% sure they threw this together last minute.

Instead you had to have the direct link to access it and remained unlisted even after it won Video of the Year at the VMAs and several other award shows On top of that, it was not some sappy ballad palatable to the masses and delivered/promoted in a hit musical film. All props to that Gaga song, that's amazing, but Formation was a trap-n-b political anthem promoted with Black Panthers regalia and caused intense scrutiny and controversy from a lot of America. Comparing the two is a bit odd. Also correct me if I'm wrong but that song never was off streaming or not for sale, correct? So let's not act like its common that a popstar gives her lead single basically ZERO chart eligibility and it sill has massive certifications. Formation is very much an example that you don't NEED to be a chart hit or even sell a lot overall to be an impactful, well-known piece of popular music. The commentaries, the think pieces, the references, the fact that Red Lobster's sales increased 33% the weekend the video came out, the references to the lyrics in culture...I mean didn't even Hillary Clinton talk about "hot sauce in her bag"? It's still being discussed in college courses, and next week in fact there's another Lemonade seminar planned, put on by The New York Public Library. The song HAS impact and any attempt to deny this because of charts / certifications for a song that was given out for free for a quarter of a year is silly.

swissman Posted April 23, 2022 Share Posted April 23, 2022 Anyway, the song flopped because it clearly doesn't sound like a hit. It still had a pretty high debut though, which implies there was some interest there, but it's just not the kind of song that is going to have audiences wanting more. It's a rap-based song that doesn't even have percussion in it. Beyoncé doesn't even appear in the video and has never performed it once. Compare this to a similar kind of collab, Eminem's two with Rihanna that were big hits, and you can see/hear the difference. They're clearly catchier, with pop hooks and more of pop-leaning production, was acknowledged (performed by Rihanna herself live and in the videos) and had far bigger promotion which helped it because the songs actually sound like hits.
