How ******* dumb can you be to be the first response and say you’ve never heard either song and drag them as trash either way. I mean honestly if you’re gonna shade, at least don’t be a dumb *****.

She may yet sneak that top 10 this week!! Next few days are going to be interesting.

Current Trinity: 1. Pure/Honey 2. Cozy 3. Virgo's Groove

How is there no concerted effort from US Twitter Hive to try and push Cuff It into the top 10 on BB100 this week? Lippredicts has it at No.13 on the BB100 predictions this week, only 7 points shy of No.10.

We were always gonna be the first country to send this to No.1. She needs to stop ignoring us when it comes to touring though. COME THROUGH KWEEN More No.1 albums in Australia now (as a solo act) than Britney and Rihanna combined #Local

We were always gonna be the first country to send this to No.1. Her third No.1 in Oz - more than Britney and Rihanna combined. She needs to stop ignoring us when it comes to touring though. COME THROUGH KWEEN

It is!! How ******* huge. 25 years into her career and she has her first No.1 in France - either solo or as a member of Destiny's Child. Tres iconique. Renaissance is more infectious than Monkeypox

Classic Brits Brexit My Soul

Winston is dragging out this twitter thread. HE'S TAKING AS LONG TO DROP THE BB100 PREDICTION AS THE GOOD SIS IS TO DROP THE BREAK MY SOUL VIDEO

Waiting for Winston to drop the first chart prediction of the week - I'm interested to see how some of the other songs are holding!! Break My Soul looking v good for the No.1 on BB100!!

I AM FKN DYING

The RENAISSANCE is building in Australia. We're well on our way to 4:00pm Australian Eastern Standard Time on the third day of the tracking week. Break My Soul has dispatched As It Was at No.1 on Apple Music. Break My Soul peaked at No.9 on the ARIA Singles Chart in its second week. The strong mid-week performance on Apple Music suggests it may hit a new peak this week. It's already her highest charting single as a solo act since 2009's Sweet Dreams (peaked at No.2). All tracks are rising on Apple Music. There's now 3 tracks in the top 10, 6 in the top 20, 9 in the top 30 and 14 in the top 50. We're cottoning onto the banger that is Summer Renaissance (up 16). All Up In Your Mind (up 12) and Pure/Honey (up 11) are also making a move. APPLE MUSIC - Australia (Day 3 of tracking week) #1 Break My Soul (up 1) #7 Cuff It (up 4) #10 I'm That Girl (up 2) #14 Alien Superstar (up 2) #16 Cozy (up 4) #19 Energy (up 4) #22 Church Girl (up 3) #27 Virgo's Groove (up 2) #30 Plastic Off The Sofa (up 2) #34 Summer Renaissance (up 16) #36 Move (up 4) #39 Heated (up 4) #41 Pure/Honey (up 11) #42 Thique (up 5) #54 All Up In Your Mind (up 12) #63 American Has A Problem (up 6) The RENAISSANCE is smashing in Aotearoa (New Zealand). It's almost 6:00pm New Zealand time on the third day of the tracking week. Break My Soul remains at No.1 on Apple Music. Break My Soul peaked at No.16 on the New Zealand Singles Chart in its second week. The strong mid-week performance on Apple Music suggests it may hit a new peak this week. It's already her highest charting single as a solo act since XO peaked at No.10 in 2014. APPLE MUSIC - New Zealand (Day 3 of tracking week) #1 Break My Soul (no change) #3 Cuff It (up 2) #4 I'm That Girl (no change) #6 Alien Superstar (up 1) #7 Cozy (up 1) #10 Church Girl (up 3) #11 Energy (up 5) #15 Plastic Off The Sofa (up 5) #20 Virgo's Groove (up 1) #25 Heated (up 5) #27 Move (down 2) #28 Pure/Honey (down 1) #29 Summer Renaissance (up 4) #33 Thique (down 1) #39 All Up In Your Mind (up 4) #40 American Has A Problem (up 2) It would be nice if Beyonce comes Down Under this era. She hasn't toured Australia and New Zealand since 2013's Mrs Carter World Tour. Since then, new stadiums have opened in Perth (Perth Stadium, 60,000), Adelaide (Adelaide Oval, 55,000) and Sydney (Sydney Football Stadium 42,620) which would be perfect for a stadium tour. The Sydney Football Stadium is a stiletto heel from the main gay district in Sydney (Oxford Street), which will be the centrepiece of World Pride / Sydney Gay and Lesbian Mardi Gras in February / March 2023 - the end of the Southern Hemisphere summer. A perfect time to tour Down Under again.

Has anyone - male or female - done this twice? Break My Soul is currently #1 on UK Spotify, #1 on UK Apple Music and #5 on UK iTunes.

This is Beyonce. Her audience is more used to buying albums (physical and digital) than streaming. Considering TEA + pure sales are not included in that early estimate, it's safe to say 300k is on lock in the US. The upper limit really depends how many physical and digital sales she gets.

I've followed every Beyonce era closely since 4. This is the most exciting since Self Titled. It's also amazing to me how many people on this forum doubt her power. I remember people saying she was over after the underperformance of 4 and her lowest opening week studio numbers as a solo act. In 2013 people were saying she was scared to release again after seemingly false starts with Grown Woman (Pepsi Commercial) and Standing on the Sun (H&M Commercial). She literally blew that theory up with a surprise release (unheard of) as an iTunes exclusive (unheard of) on a Friday (unheard of) with 3 days of sales (unheard of) after all the year-end "best of 2013" lists had come out (unheard of). At the end of 3 days of sales, she had her fourth solo studio album No.1 with 617,000 sales. After 18 days of sales, she ended 2013 with the best selling female album and the 8th best selling album of the year. So much for her being over. Fast forward to 2022. A new decade and a new music landscape, they said. Everything is Love, Homecoming and The Gift showed that she was over, they said. She needed to get last minute features to get a top 10 Billboard hit, they said. She was too old for radio, they said. Here we are, in the fourth decade of her career, and she is absolutely dominating Apple Music. It's pretty ******* inspiring stuff for all of us. The lesson is to learn, to grow, to challenge yourself and you can achieve great things, no matter what the haters say or think. Powerful stuff.

MOI as it currently stands S Tier: Pure/Honey, Virgo's Groove, Summer Renaissance, Thique A+ Tier: Cuff It, Alien Superstar, Cozy, Heated A Tier: Break My Soul, I'm That Girl, America Has A Problem, Move, Church Girl A- Tier: Plastic off the Sofa B Tier: Energy, All Up In Your Mind Pure/Honey is at the Pearly Gates having just clawed Drunk in Love's eyes out. Pure/Honey is seeking admittance to the Holy Trinity alongside Crazy in Love and Partition. It would put a stiletto heal in Formation to join the Holy Trinity.

Still got more architectural merit than your mess of a post

OKAY I HAVE FINISHED MY FIRST LISTEN I CHANGED TRINITIES 15 TIMES, THE NEIGHBOUR BANGED ON THE DOOR, GOT A H ARD ON THIS BICH HA POWA BEYONCE HAS DONE IT AGAIN MY FIRST LISTEN TRINITY Thique Cuff It Pure / Honey Honourable mentions to Virgo’s Groove (slightly too long for trinity on first listen) and Summer Renaissance (what a closing song)!! On a few more listens Alien Superstar could make an extraterrestrial appearance in the trinity list, it’s gonna be a grower for me. I’d say Break My Soul is in the bottom third of songs for me. It’s her most radio friendly song, so I can see why she released it as the lead, but it masks the sonic perfection and base that MAKE this album

I NEED TO LISTEN TO PURE / HONEY AND BLOW STRAIGHT AFTER

**** ME THERE ARE SO MANY BANGERS PURE / HONEY IS GOING OFFF GET IN THE CLUBS AND VOGUE TO IT

I think Thique is my fave so far omggggg
