suneclipse121 Posted August 8, 2022 Share Posted August 8, 2022 Why did Renaissance open with 180 million streams when I was repeatedly told by liddos that Beyonce was irrelevant? What does that make Chromatica and Gaga if she only did less than half of what Beyoncé did. The math isn't mathing. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
patapon Posted August 8, 2022 Share Posted August 8, 2022 Omg little L’s wouldn’t shut up about Apple Music being irrelevant but Bey has more than 100M streams in that platform alone. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
_Fey Posted August 8, 2022 Share Posted August 8, 2022 Omg surely that's a typo? Ms Beyonce in her 40s who debuted before anyone knew what an itunes was did more than double Chromatica streams? The album that even had streaming giant Ariana Grande? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

PrudenceHCharmed Posted August 8, 2022 Share Posted August 8, 2022 Gaga is merely smoke and mirrors, insanely overhyped by her fans. In reality, she needs big collaboration to do half of B's numbers. Her hypes don't really translate to her sales. Even in 2011 she barely outsold 4 after 99 cent discount. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

So selling more than double (660k vs 315k) is barely outselling? I’ve seen it all Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I’ve seen it all Lol no. 4 total sales is around 1.6M copies which is just 1M away from BTW (if you include the bargain sales). 4 had one month leak and flop singles while Gaga had singles (radio), promo on her side. Anyways, 4 still outsold when SPS is included so that wouldn't be 'barely outsold' anymore. 4 (78 Weeks) vs BTW (52 weeks) on BB200 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Epica Posted August 8, 2022 Share Posted August 8, 2022 I’m friends with one of Beys cousins and she told me is 95% payola She also told me that Bey does not give a f, it’s all Jay Z ego, she even wanted to retire from music since self titled #FreeBeyonce Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

BGKC Posted August 8, 2022 Share Posted August 8, 2022 I was hoping this trite comparison would fizzle out by now. It was very clear which one is more impressive/more of an event than the other by day 3. And to give Gaga the benefit of the doubt, she did kind of pay it dust and practically worked harder for the WHO at the time. Feels like a fever dream tbh.
