Look at Beyonce's long list of "released" singles and the way she handled singles since parting ways with her dad.

 

4 era:

RTW pushed to death despite not resonating with the GP -> became a staple song of hers eventually

BTINH -> release in the UK and on Urban Radio I believe, a few performances here and there, no other push

End Of Time ->performed quite often (+ at the SB), no single release

Countdown -> got a MV, no other push

Dance for you -> got a MV, no other push

Love On Top -> got a push on Rhythmic and Urban Radio, got a few important performances (VMAs for instance) -> became a signature hit

 

ST:

DrIL -> was pushed as the lead once ST dropped -> most successful single since then
XO -> release on Pop at the same time as DrIL, got devoured by it

Partition -> delayed release on Urban, didn't receive a significant boost

Pretty Hurts -> got released on Urban () -> no effect

7/11 -> push on Urban + MV push -> solid hit for Bey

 

Lemonade:

Formation -> huge push with SB performances and controversial MV, however made inaccessible on Youtube (the MV), official release 3 months later together with the album ; no radio adds

Sorry -> official push on Urban during album release, no other significant push or performance (later one for her VMA medley)

Hold Up -> was never pushed

Daddy Lessons -> got a remix + a nice performance -> no push again

 

Rennie:

BMS -> big push on radio, early anouncement and release; however no performance, no MV, nada -> still became a solid hit for Bey (great peak, no longevity due to no push)

 

 

Based on history, how likely is it we are going to get the full Cuff It experience? Quickly.

Thank you for posting this, because I don't think some people understand

Cuff It has so much crossover appeal. It reminds me of September by Earth Wind and Fire a bit. It should be sent to Urban, Pop, and Adult Contemporary. 

A generational classic. And she NEEDS one right now. Literally perfect timing. This song SCREAMS "BEYONCE IN 2022".

"Woman" took off early on after album release but wasn't sent to radio or pushed until MONTHS later. It still was a hit but could've been even bigger.

Exactly.. they're not familiar with how she's treated her eras post-IASF era. Would it be nice for her to promote an era again? For sure, I think it would increase her longevity on the charts. But, the reality is looking like a NO. 

 

We can just depend on the TikTok community for promo and word of mouth at this point.

I would love for it to serve such longevity, I think it can? I still hear Woman on pop radio.

Maybe drop a MV first. I want visuals from the queen of visuals!

How’s this doing on radio?

[Otter]

The tour announcement which is due in the next 2 weeks should give it a boost

Some really notable things, this is coming in France, and Germany which are two big markets she does poorly in. 

 

It's starting to grow in Latin America and Eastern Europe, too
