XO is probably the only radio friendly song she has released in a while. Sorry is absolutely radio friendly, it's done well of R&B/Hip-Hop Stations.

But of course Billboard won't be asking that question Gaga haters claim Billboard is on Gaga's payroll and are constantly promoting her, and Gaga fans think Billboard is not fighting for her I swear, every fanbase on the planet thinks their fave is underrated and a victim of some conspiracy The fact is - radio played Perfect Illusion and nobody liked it.

I don't think Sorry is very radio friendly. Hip hop songs need to be stupid and trashy to be on pop radio. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

youandi 2,110 Posted February 16, 2017 Share Posted February 16, 2017 Whether or not she's a album artist who doesn't need to bother with singles or not, All Night and Freedom deserved to have been hits. 6 Inch should have got more public recognition too. It's all good being an album artist but if you're genuinely going for a legendary status, which it's clear she is, she needs to get her songs out there in a way they'll be remembered. Yes everyone will remember that time she dropped an album out of nowhere and how she delivered a well realised film but what good is that if not many people know many of the genuinely very good songs on there?

I am talking about RADIO and Hold Up peaked at 40M AI I think and had amazing longevity. This is more than any Joanne song now live each day like Gaga might drop an album Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Posted February 16, 2017 Share Posted February 16, 2017 As if Beyoncé desperately needs radio airplay since the release of her self-titled album her team has completely changed its promotional strategy that comes with every album. It's SO obvious they wanted to make her a big album-selling force with the visual concepts and the entire presentation, release schedule etc and it seems like her team doesn't even care if she's played on the radio or not she's gained her popularity status anyways.

Sis, I try to remain as non deluded as possible but we all know that PI's bulk of airplay came from its 1 day radio deal, radio could not wait to drop the song, giving it the minimal amount of plays as they could Signature loading… 👹🖤 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

MJHolland 12,725 Posted February 16, 2017 Share Posted February 16, 2017 No, we just inflate the impact of Bey's last two albums. People claim it has all this impact but still it never has a hit because it doesn't actually have impact outside of the internet (gay pop forums, IG, Tumblr, etc.) Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Robo Ga 15,297 Posted February 16, 2017 Share Posted February 16, 2017 Both Bey and Gaga should be dominating pop radio, I don't know why radio is becoming so much more basic than it used to be 🤖⚡️ Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Just because it's not being played at Office Depot doesn't mean it isn't impactful. Put on Yonce, Partition, XO, Formation, Sorry, Hold Up on at the club and people will know the words. At least they do in my experience 🤖⚡️ Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

(Absolutely NO shade to Lemonade and bey; I love them, just made a comparison) Worldwide lemonade has sold 3million, and in America it was confirmed to have sold more than 2million I dont know what they got this info from. I’m a simple guy to please, if you like Melodrama, we chill. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
