Cowboy Carter doing significantly worse than Renaissance. Why?

yes because the UK loves country music :rip:

It's doing worse in UK because top 2 most streamed songs from the album are removed for chart points. If you remove 2 of the most streamed songs from US SPS it would plummet too.

Cuff It (the biggest hit on the album) took off a few months after the album release, so that helped Renaissance's longevity in the long run.

 

In Cowboy Carter's case, TXE did most of its run before the album release, so now since there's no other song that took off it isn't holding up as well. 
 

There's probably more reasons to it but I think this is the most obvious one for the difference in streams. 
 

Renaissance remains the better record nonetheless.

Turns out Beyoncé needs those quick little singles after all, uh

How does her variants impact her absolutely huge streaming numbers? Numbers Beyoncé will never see and has never seen in her entire career?

Cowboy Carter is a bad album, as simple as that. Her stans can delulu themselves as much as they want to but she broke the strike with Beyoncè - Lemonade - Renaissance and that's it. 
 

Edit: Downvote me as much as you want but the streaming mummers are speaking for themselves :chick1:

She isn't pushing any of the tracks or pushing the album at all, and the TikTok community hasn't forced her team to acknowledge any of the other tracks. Levii's Jeans and Bodyguard could have been good singles, and then close things out with II Hands for the R&B crowd. 
 

And there's been a ton of new music this year, so it's not like people are desperately holding on to CC.

 

She did it to herself. Oh well.

Country album by a 40+ year old black woman released only 1.5 years after renaissance. Plus Beyoncés years of neglecting streaming and hits means she will often fall behind. Still an objectively successful and acclaimed album. Plus the era has just begun, she will probably drag it on with a tour and maybe visuals in the future

Who cares? She gave us a lot of quality music with CC and I enjoy it every day! Same with Rennie too! She's been feeding us and that's what matters. Yes, both albums would be more successful if she promoted and put some videos out, but she didn't so just enjoy the songs and stop speculating  :loud:

A Gaga stan calling Renaissance a flop, the nerve :rip:

Anyway, the better album won but CC did fine for what it is and scored a solo global hit which some female artists haven't had since 2013.

I truly feel like I live in an alternate universe because I like Renaissance but I was blown away by CC, and I'm not even remotely a country music fan :deadbanana2:Shame that it's probably going to go down as one of her most underrated albums.

Honestly!


I enjoy Renaissance but Cowboy Carter vocally, lyrically, and conceptually just hits so much harder.  She really nailed it with CC, and truly ahead of its time indeed.

Renaissance being an easily digestible alberm doesn't necessarily make it the better record, lemme just say that. People are obviously not connecting to CC and that might have to do with a lot of factors, it's not because the quality isn't there.

Cuff it was easier to payola on tiktok and felt more authentic because she was singing about busting it. She sounds very bored on Texas like she ever knew that like of life in Texas.

THIS along there being no big demand for country music outside of the US.

I swear you guys constantly miss the point of what she said with this on purpose. It's either that or you're just not really that intelligent.
