ryhanna 3,507 Posted February 4, 2013 Share Posted February 4, 2013 Isn't it? I can't believe she had one of the biggest promo opportunities she could ever have and completely wasted it :lmao: Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
pie-kun 1,765 Posted February 4, 2013 Share Posted February 4, 2013 Those old songs will get a one week boost on iTunes and her new lead single will be denied the greatest promo available right now... Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
hausofmike 127 Posted February 4, 2013 Share Posted February 4, 2013 This could have been Beyonces GOLDEN opportunity to promote her single. One of the most watched shows of all time. More watched than the grammys Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Oyemiamor 40 Posted February 4, 2013 Share Posted February 4, 2013 I think its tacky to debut a new single at the super bowl. It screams try hard. I respect her opinion not to. Fans and new listeners want to hear stuff they may recognize not something no one knows. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Harry 26,836 Posted February 4, 2013 Share Posted February 4, 2013 Sometimes I feel like Beyonce does this on purpose haha. I mean, she will never get that kind of audience again... Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Fans and new listeners want to hear stuff they may recognize not something no one knows. I do agree with the second part but I don't think it's tacky to do that. It's just promotion which is a necessary part of the business. But she obviously had her reasons. Just seems a bit weird especially if she's supposed to be making a tour announcement?

Fans and new listeners want to hear stuff they may recognize not something no one knows. Madonna was able to premiere her single and perform a medley of all her old hits, I mean they get 13 minutes. She hasn't been in the top 10 since Telephone three years ago. Did we really need to hear Baby Boy in lieu of a new single? :/ Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think the point is that Beyonce doesn't need this promo. I find it tacky for artists that have such large catalogs, like all that perform at super bowls, would need to perform a new song to get attention. They are asked to perform at the super bowl because they don't need it. The buzz has started again, she may get some new fans but people are hearing her name in their ears now so it's a perfect time for a new single release sometime this month.

Ozzy8923 9 Posted February 4, 2013 Share Posted February 4, 2013 I think its tacky to debut a new single at the super bowl. It screams try hard. I respect her opinion not to. Fans and new listeners want to hear stuff they may recognize not something no one knows. She still performed End of Time and Love on Top. Not many people know that song. Let's not even go into the fact that she NEEDED a hit after not having one since FOUR years ago. I would be PISSED if I were her fan and she wasted this opportunity to utterly SLAY the competition effortlessly if she released a new single today and performed it. This could of done WONDERS. More than any other promotion could ever do. I mean, it's just so stupid. Flat out idiotic. I'd rather scream try hard, if that'll give me my biggest hit in 4 years and possibly of my entire career. Secondhand embarrassment for the Hive now. And you know it's bad when a BRITNEY stan feels embarrassment for another artist. Sweet baby Jean, bless her soul. At least Scram & **** can stay perched at #2 whilst Jean simply cleans her uterus. :creepflop: Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
ryhanna 3,507 Posted February 4, 2013 Share Posted February 4, 2013 It was great to hear her old hits and all, it was lovely, I love all of the songs she performed. But LAWWWWWWWWWWDDDDDDDD debuting a new single during that performance would have helped her so much. On the bright side, I guess her performance would probably have heightened anticipation of her new single. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jake 0 Posted February 4, 2013 Share Posted February 4, 2013 Y'all are just pressed that Beyonce owned the Super Bowl Her label knows what it's doing. I would have probably went ahead and used the lead single, but this has generated ENOURMOUS interest and publicity for her. She's priming the public to let them know Besus is back and coming to slay. Now that she's got immense buzz again, the Grammys will be perfect to debut the single. She didn't want to put out a single with no momentum. It's all a little genius in a way.
