One day she's global the other day she's the most LOCAL!!!!! artist ever whose last hit was 10 years ago. I never said that, but cool story about ATRL members that have nothing to do with me And let's not act like the hive puts Beyoncé on the same pedestal as Britney, Alicia Keys, Shakira, etc. The hive constantly claims she's leagues above these girls especially when it comes to longevity, so obviously the expectations are higher. Let's not act stupid now.
Ricky Wilson Posted October 4, 2022 Posted October 4, 2022 I expected 400M at least judging by how her stans swear lt was a huge global smasha

Of all people, you shouldn't be talking about BMS' performance. Beyoncé's new album has album tracks with more streams than your fave's huge comeback single. Of course it will, it will take aprox a year for it to cross 300M.

Let's not act stupid now. Let's not act like ATRL said and claim she was over after The Gift "There's absolutely no hype for B7" "Her last global hit was 2009" "She won't score any hit in 2022" and of course "she will open with 200K" and all of sudden y'all expecting what, 500M streams? Let's not act stupid now. And Beyoncé's numbers is far above all those artists mentioned except Shakira but she's not dominating AM that much though so Hives are not lying unless you're saying B should be doing Billie or Ariana's numbers but Hives never claimed that (just FYI REN opened higher than those two latest album) Edited October 4, 2022 by PrudenceHCharmed

Let's not act stupid now. Every girl is said to be over after one flop project, groundbreaking. Perhaps don't take things so personal? The point remains, BMS had a great chart run and people were simply pointing out the underwhelming streams considering its chart run. It doesn't get deeper than that, but go on about your trauma with what ATRLers say and don't say lmao.

It will cross 300M substantially faster than a year and that's still passing the figure, and continue to climb. Which is not "struggling to pass" 300M. As I said, you of all people shouldn't be trying to pretend BMS is a flop, considering HMC's current streams.

I confused a year with 100 days But it will start to amass less and less streams everyday specially because the entire album cycle is dead. It really struggled to get to 200M and will struggle to 300M even more.

BnPac Posted October 4, 2022 Posted October 4, 2022 BMS did what it had to do, reintroduced Bey to the new generation, it also was a little hit that managed to go #1 in the US à against all odds. No amount of crying about its streams on one streaming platform will change that.

UnusualBoy Posted October 4, 2022 Posted October 4, 2022 Yeah the numbers are underwhelming but the song didn't peak that high in streams during its first week so it was only down from there. I think it will end around 400-500m when it's said and done.

It lacked streamed outside of the anglosphere, and I feel the UK was the only place where it was truly huge. Cuff It is looking to be more global and will probably pass it by years end. BMS will be a mid-size hit when all is said and done, hopefully the video/tour will help push it in places it struggled. Cuff it will be massive though. Alien hopefully will follow before we move to act 2.

I'm focusing on Beyoncé struggling to pass 200M with a multiweek #1 and 100M with every album track from her first studio full project in six years.

Some people seem to be struggling to get anywhere near that with their only musical output in six years.
Soda Pop Queen Posted October 5, 2022 Posted October 5, 2022 Not y'all tryna drag BMS for being at "only" 200 million streams when it doesn't even have a video Bey is doing fine. Cuff It on deck to prolly smash harder.

The way you're so MAD at Bee still thriving 25 years into her career I know why though Alexz, mad since 2003 when she totally eclipsed and erased someone and put them off the map

There's about one sane hive in this thread who acknowledge the anomaly between the streams and its chart run, but having a conversation with y'all leads nowhere but aight

None of what you said has anything to do with my post.
BnPac Posted October 5, 2022 Posted October 5, 2022 (edited) And trying to act like Hives are delusional when my very first post in the thread was laughing at the comments and acknowledging the fact that at least it reintroduced her to the streaming era and did what it needed to do. The song went #1 only in selected countries (US and Ireland being the bigger ones), in most other counties, it didn't do much, it had no promo and no video or no acknowledgement from the artist. Is 200M underwhelming on Spotify yes, but to come here and yell that it was carried by radio when that has been debunked multiple times (the sing was carried by AM) and expect no response from the Hives is weird. Edited October 5, 2022 by BnPac
benyonce Posted October 5, 2022 Posted October 5, 2022 The Spotify streams demonstrate a moderate hit while the chart run indicates otherwise. That is a fair assessment. Radio picked up the slack the no video or promo caused. A fair trade off considering Bey refuses to allow her work to see its full potential. @Robyn. Actually makes some fair points, not that I agree with them all and at least demonstrates a level of logic and understanding with their posts. @Alexz Should take notes because you're yet to post an unbiased opinion that isn't fuelled by hate and your own delusions. Disgraceful to see someone tearing down a successful woman in 2022, and for what?
