Yeah this is exploding, 

Much better than BMS and she has a real hit in her hands after a while. 

Plus everything is already set into motion - radio, tiktok, playlists. Im honestly scared where this could end up :jonny6:

We shouldve known middle white America is powerful seeing Taylor's success AND their power to elect Trump (potentially twice) :jonny6:

 

But the most shocking part is actually that this is smashing GLOBALLY :jonny2:

I don't forget that and it's my favorite from R, but it wasn't a huge hit in any moment, it has nice streams and steady ones but never exploded like THE looks like it would.

Errrrm no. 

 

Sis has had bops on bops. Consistently at that.

 

Texas' success is a combination result of: a) streaming momentum established by Renaissance b) the gag/novelty/press of "Beyonce going Country" and c) it's a great, catchy song!

 

I love stan culture (hell, it's what this whole forum and Twitter is based on), but I'll never get with the "x song is smashing so that automatically makes it **better** than its predecessors". Context, as described above, is everything. 

 

That said, ecstatic for Bey and us (The Hive).

If we miss the no.1 this week, we should definitely get it the following week if these numbers continue to be stable. Also, we could potentially get multiple weeks at no.1. This might challenge to be one of her biggest HITS. Like y’all don’t understand what’s actually happening. Oh mother!!! :jonnycat:

That doesn’t negate the fact that cuff it wasn’t a huge it. THE Is just or becoming the bigger of the two. Cuff it paved the way! It was Beyoncés first REAL tik tok hit.

Ok I see ur point. Thats true, it never felt like it exploded to the degree Texas feels now.

Still, Cuff It was a hit and is still pulling in solid numbers.

Again, you don't need to explain to me that, I love CI since day one, I'm just saying it was a hit, not a huge one that looking like getting number 1 in the US and the UK on her second (or first full week) week, so soon.

You shoulda just said THE is on track to become her first real SMASH in a long time and no one here would disagree with that. 
 

Her first real hit? No. By all metrics that was Cuff it, and cuff it was released as a single barely a year ago

But that's what I meant by REAL? I meant big, huge, something she hasn't had for a long long time and I'm happy for her.

This is all semantics but would be better suited to describe BMS. Cuff it is a big hit.

Cuff It and Break My Soul are CLASSICS. TH'E appears to be an instant Classic as well. In 10 years that's the only thing that's going to matter at the end of the day.
