Some Songs without Music Video in YT Music

 

Cruel Summer: 594M

Bloody Mary: 518M

As per the latest reports from 2025, YouTube Music makes up 10% of the global streaming market. It's funny how people on western forums still confuse it with YouTube, the video viewing app.

a corny mess that people would probably just skip if it started playing

Abra is a career highlight that only Gaga could've made. Cuff it is good but like most artists in that genre could make that song.

I found a report putting it at 17%

Cuff It was the bigger hit but Abracadabra is better

TBD Abracadabra 

Cuff It is much bigger in Anglophone countries, Abracadabra in most of mainland Europe (I don't know about the rest of the world). Cuff It is by far better... like Beyoncé ate, Nile Rodgers ate, Raphael Saadiq...

Now who "in that genre" has the vocals to pull a Cuff It, lmao?

Abraham is bigger 

Cuff it is slightly better 

Just a quick look at the certifications and peaks will tell you that Abra is much bigger.

Abracadabra and it's not even close. 

 

Cuff It is annoying and, therefore, garbage. Belongs in trash.

This but cutting off the last 6 words

I couldn't sing cuff it if a gun was pointed to my head tbh.

I presume Abracadabra is at 2M in the US, Cuff It is eligible for 5X PLATINUM though

 

This one is difficult. They're both great songs but I prefer Abracadabra.

Cuff It is giving if all Beyonce tracks were combined and played on loop in hell.

Why are we comparing sales when one has been out for 3 years and the other one not even 1?

Posting some objective stats for reference 

 

Spotify 

 

Cuff It: 929M streams in 3 years

Abracadabra: 628M streams in 10 months 

 

YouTube Music

 

Cuff It: 196M plays in 3 years

Abracadabra: 379M plays in 10 months 

Cuff It is very likely bigger on Apple Music but we don't have YE charts yet for Abracadabra...

 

Cuff It also has a somewhat successful remix lol

The only official Apple Music numbers we got from them was their top 500 list and both songs weren't on it. 

Cuff It sweetie i'm so sorry

We actually have the genre chart and I see Cuff It in the top 200 Pop songs real time but not Abracadabra 

What kind of comparison is this?

US: CUFF IT

Worldwide: Abracadabra 

 

Abracadabra is doing better numbers than all Bey hits of this decade (BMS, TEXAS & CUFF IT).
