The carters dropped their everything is love using the surprise tactic that Beyonce used for lemonade. The surprise shows how out of touch the duo are with their dual fan bases. They had 2 fan groups to enhance the buying power but no such thing happened. It was sort of like when someone scares u and says “boo” and you’re startled... and your heart races and they got u! They try it again 30 mins later and ur not so bothered or startled this time. This is the exact description I’d love to place on the carters. The surprise tactic is stale and so are those exclusives! Drake just reached 1 billion streams in a week, the carters thought their surprise album would do this, can I get some lol’s lmbo’s and lmfao’s at them because they are sooooo tone deaf to the new era! Today is streams, Spotify, Apple Music and amazon... no more exclusives from tidal who’s yet to make their first big splash in the 3 years since its inception.
Let’s see what these tired, tone deaf, 1990’s elderly do for their next album. Jay-Z is in debt to live nation until around 2027... who gonna stream his stuff? As u know he got a track on that album with drake. He always inserts himself into whatever’s currently hot. Such a bandwagon tic, leech, fly, ugh! I really do dislike them and I’m happy their album flopped. They still haven’t sold over 200,000 worldwide😂

I read something a few days ago that said they're putting out a hard copy for sale. Meanwhile stores are pulling CDs off their shelves are not selling them anymore so I don't get the point but hey whatever

Meanwhile stores are pulling CDs off their shelves are not selling them anymore so I don't get the point but hey whatever Yesss stores such as target isn’t going to carry CD’s and purchase first, they are going to pay for what scans... so it’s a lost cause. Best Buy is going to be selective in what they carry and they won’t carry massive amounts, they’re also going for the scanned option like target. Lots of retailers are following suit. They are going more in debt with the record labels shipping out some old dated CDs which will sit on shelves and won’t count as they did before. Back in the day the retailer would order let’s say 50,000 so it would count as a sale. Now they want to pay as they’re scanned on the register. Haha good luck carters😂😆

From article Although retail rival Target hasn’t ended CD sales yet, it has put some limitations on the sales of the format in its stores by adopting “scan-based” terms. This means that the product (along with DVDs, another bright and shiny plastic disc that’s heading the way of the dinosaur) is basically held on consignment until it’s sold (and scanned in the process). The company has also told vendors that it will only hold the product for 60 days and then return it if unsold, basically eliminating all catalog sales while concentrating on the faster moving popular hits. www.forbes.com/sites/bobbyowsinski/2018/07/07/best-buy-cd-sales/#6ac3c1101d2e

This is the nail in the coffin for all of those years of smoke and mirrors they have put over our eyes. Beyonce fan base only wants to see her while her heart rate is at 160 and she’s doing obnoxious cardio on stage and as u can see she can barely keep up anymore. As for old man, his fan base is about 43 yrs old now and rather kick back with a beer or bbq on the grill for their grandkids on a Saturday rather than go to a concert. They’re DONE! Goodbye elder and cardio queen

Goodbye elder and cardio queen Who in 2018 has grandchildren at 43? LOL! I'm in that age range and would still love going to concerts if the prices weren't so ridiculous and/or the acts were talented. The problem with the Carters is they had 15 unopposed years to elevate their brand into something significant, a real show of actual Black power. Instead, they chose to let corporate America use them as pawns for a quick buck and some stock points. All they have now are hype, albums, and tours while the younger, less talented performers transition into moguls.

If you’re 43, u can have a child at 20 yrs old... that child can be 23 today and have a minimum of 3 kids... lol lol I am not in my 40’s nor do I have grandkids but I was just being mean😂 They are now seeing it takes streams to compete in today’s music scene. They have tidal to cheat their numbers but since being called out for fake streams tidal has stopped reporting. Let’s see their next move. They better turn into touring artist and drop out the music scene while they can. This flop must’ve bruised their egos

I like how beyonce tries to beat Rihanna at her game and she can't. Not stanning for Rihanna but it seems to me like whatever Rihanna does, here comes beyonce a year or two later running after her trying to copy her. Rihanna did the moody trap album Anti and here comes beyonce trying to swagger jack and what's more, say she doesn't care about streaming. Well Rihanna is a streaming queen and beyonce is a huge flop with her rapping and her trap music and ugh, that's her method: copy everything and try to make it look like she invented it and was best at it. She stole lemonade from anti didn't she. And she's still copying Rihanna. Even some of the pictures of the tour and video look like island looks to me, like Rihanna.

Oh and it's really something the way jayz's record label and streaming service handled anti. That was Rihanna's best work but it got buried under so many things. Yet lemonade was given a gigantic hype, manufactured, bought awards, everything. It shows how much it takes to keep beyonce on top. Sabotaging everyone in her path!

IMO, Beyonce has always been a talented, hard worker but there was always someone more interesting in music who would top her. Instead of taking time off between albums to develop a personality and style, her management just pushed other acts to the side with underhanded thieving and bullying. She tried to do the same with Rihanna but because Jay Z and Jay Brown marketed her as a younger and prettier, more relatable version of Beyonce, it didn't work. I have my issues with Rihanna but she is one smart cookie because she did what Beyonce could never do and that's evolve. More than 10 years later and she's still evolving.
Meanwhile, I just read the Carters are pushing yet another pregnancy storyline.

I was joking but yeah I have a friend who is 46 with 2 grandkids and here I am at 41, still contemplating motherhood.
That Tidal controversy ruined numbers for a lot of people. Drake was supposed to have a much larger week 1 but because of the Tidal accusations all the services are now trying to put up more factual numbers causing the industry to turn even more against them.
People are even beginning to question the authenticity of Beyonce's followers. (((How does someone with millions of followers not sell millions of albums)))
We of course figured they were bot accounts years ago

Lmao there's only two illusions left with beyonce for the public to figure out: 1.wealth 2.fandom. Once they figure out those two things are fake there's nothing left with "beyonce".

We of course figured they were bot accounts years ago Ever wonder how there was a time Kim kardashian and Beyonce were neck to neck in instagram followers and Beyonce surpassed Kim? How do when Kim sells a product that costs wayyyy more than Beyonce! Kim can sell 500,000 contour sticks for $40 each and Beyoncè can’t get 500,000 fans to buy a $10 album. Yesss those followers are hella fake. When u support someone that’s famous, u do it so their staying power will benefit you. U want them to stay around because u like them. That’s what a supportive fan does. Why can’t Beyonce and Jay-Z get 500,000 from each side (two fan groups) to purchase their $10 album and propel them to platinum? Wtf is going on? I can’t wait to see what happens when they come to America. Beyonce wearing those black panther hats and taking on that black power stance has quietly put a bad taste in her white stans mouthes. Those are the ones buying tickets let’s be real, her gay fanbase ain’t buying no $100-500 tickets, sis. She should just entertain like she’s hired to do and stay out of politics... Dolly Parton chose to not side with any political party and that’s how she’s still filling stadiums. Keep your political stance to yourself and be the dancing jester u are. I can’t wait to see her doing the uh-ooh dance at 50 yrs old😂

I've heard apesh** at least 5 times, because I dont know about where you guys are, but here it gets a lot of radio play. But anyway, after five plus times I usually hear a song, it's usually my sh**! But no this is trash! Was she forced to become this so-calle "trapqueen" because she sounds like a man now? Whatever, too old for the madness!

DJs love kiss their asses, but the sales show people don't care anymore. Eventually the radio stations and industry will get the message.

She and Jay are also the elders of mainstream music so I can see how radio would show them respect. That song is just embarrassing on so many levels. From the crazy bragging to the use of Quavo's entire demo.
Wasn't he one of the young boys Jay was talking down on while promoting that 4:44 wokeness? Tee-hee!!!
