Even Taylor's country albums did significantly less streams than the pop ones Yeah, I don't know how anyone would expect Beyoncé to perform better because she's releasing a country album. No matter how you spin it, having the biggest non-Taylor debut ever for a female artist, a black female artist at that, 20+ years into her career, is beyond impressive and an insane accomplishment. 16 3

A lot of tracks does not equal big numbers. Just ask her peer Justin Timberlake 5 4

There's no grand conspiracy to push Beyonce on us. People genuinely love her for her music and her talent and not controversies surrounding her. It can't be said of everyone, unfortunately. 6 4
Tm4074 Posted March 30 Posted March 30 I think this album is on track to be the most successful country album by a female artist since Taylor's RED in 2012. Not the biggest pop stars gagging the country music industry like that lmao. 1
SoundsandSongs Posted March 30 Posted March 30 Why are people still bringing up 27 songs when its been explained over and over only 24 songs count towards streams. If anything those 3 interludes which don't count are disadvantaging Bey, those are lost clicks. Beyonce's songs are LONG which is another disadvantage. In streaming era short songs are the advantage for higher streams. 6 4

Right, but you have to consider two additional things: 1. Country music is arguably the most polarizing genre in America. Some people (especially Black people - who represent her main demographic) are not going to be inclined to even given a country album a chance. 2. Country music is arguably the most conservative of the popular American genres. Some people are not going to be willing to play an album by a outspoken and political Black woman just to see what they hype is about. 1
Harsh2256 Posted March 30 Posted March 30 Omg the numbers ?outdoing TUN and SOS Beyonce is in the peak of her career rn actually 1
305 Posted March 30 Posted March 30 Double the tracks=double the amount of streams right? Consistency is great but that was definitely a huge factor 6

Consistency is great but that was definitely a huge factor This was not double the tracks and the average streams per song are higher. 3.2m average for 24 songs vs 2.7m for 16 songs. Longer albums have lower averages than shorter albums so it shows how much she's grown. This growth aligns well with her huge catalogue growth since 2022. 6

There are 3 interludes with a total of 200K streams. There are in fact total 24 songs with 76M streams. That will make the album in particular 3.1M streams on average per song compared to Ariana's 3.5M streams on average per song (including the remixes). I see that you're here from 2008. Your old Britney mania days that you used to talk about her '99 peak all day long in 2010s are long gone, here. Many stars from 2000s have super passed her too in units like Taylor, Rihanna, Beyonce and Adele. Edited March 30 by Aethereal 1 3
cuteboyzay Posted March 30 Posted March 30 (edited) 20 Pages all because BEYONCÉ did something Legendary AGAIN!? 20 Pages filled with brainless idiots who can't even admit a black woman's success!? GOD this is so f*cking FUNNYYY, watching Beyoncé really REPEAK once again. I'd be mad tooo when she JUST HAD one of the most global smashes of the year and that was literally a COUNTRY song. And now she has the BIGGEST Spotify debut (sans Taylor swift) for any Female artist in history! When time and time again y'all said she was "streaming poison" lmfaooo. Even if we took away some songs and leveled it to SOS. She STILL equals/out streams SOS. With NO VISUALS TOO! Like this thread wouldn't even be HALF AS LONG if someone like Olivia or Taylor did this. It's just so apparent you guys don't like it when a black woman really defies your expectations. Every. Single. Time. And this is ONLY the beginning! Edited March 30 by cuteboyzay 4 1

Fleahive Posted March 30 Posted March 30 I would like to argue that artists with shorter albums and shorter SONGS have a lot more replay value. Not to speak for everyone but when 2020s Beyoncé releases an album I listen through once and need a 24 hour break because the songs are lengthy and a lot to take in. If you create a cute 2:30 pop bop with a catchy hook people are gonna replay that song a few times over before they jump into the next song on a first listen.
