I believe this is her fastest song to reach this milestone. With no promo or video

 

Run the world will be her 12th within the next two weeks.

 Beyond deserved. Coming for 1B.

A classic 

 this will def hit a billion 

Smash solo hit not everyone has that recently

Cuff It was such a smart shot as a single. I'll never understand starting the era with Break My Soul

Cuff Hit

Well BMS wasn't a smash, but it will go down as a hit, eventually reaching 500m too. 

 

Its better for 2nd single to be bigger than the 1st one, gives the era more longevity.

Run The World & If I Were A Boy are coming as well and I hope with a little boost, BMS/BTINH/Partition will follow faster.

She should've released AHAP & push AS a little, could get to 500M as well.

BMS, while it's not as big as Cuff It, made sense as a lead because it's indicative of the main genre of the album. 

Not her still competing with the young girls, even when she isn't even trying to. The fact that she will probably be breaking this tie in a couple weeks. It's truly giving legendary. 

Such a classic already 

A solid hit 

Cuff HIT 

Her best song did that
