I didn't say you had a breakdown. I meant you breakdown your racial makeup more than anyone I've ever seen.

If I may interrupt the stan wars for a second; record labels and the entertainment industry in general is going to give a long, hard look at the effect of piracy on sales after this. The fact that this album sold almost 500K in 24 hours and coincidentally there wasn't a leak or a way to mass pirate it is not going to go unnoticed.

Saw this comment on a LA Times article

One must give credit where credit is due. This was a product launch that is genius.

1. She cut out the middle men ~ Ka-ching.

2. She has relied on the sycophantic press to promote her album ...for free ~ ka-ching.

3. She has sold a product through a distribution channel, at full whack, that doesn't allow refunds ~ Ka-ching.

4. She is already on tour, so having to pay a share to LiveNation ...or whomever...to set-up and promote her tour is a mute point. ~Ka-ching.

The lady has taken a seriously page out of the Michael Jackson playbook on how to turn the industry on its head in her favor.

Whatever you are saying, her shows were not promoting her new music.
It's like saying that a any indie rapper who does this, and sells zero copies as a result wasn't under promoted. Because he had been touring for 5 years with old material, so in your opinion he had been promoting his album for 5 years :dead:

Breh, are you stupid or something? :what: I've already explained how going on a world tour raises the profile and relevance of her brand which allows for this sort of groundbreaking release. An indie rapper couldn't do this due to the simple fact they don't have a brand that has close to the power, resources, or reputation that Beyonce's has. Touring helps her brand, it promotes it. Her brand promotes the album. Do you get it now? I mean seriously, I did all the ground work for you. I connected all the dots. All you have to do is read and comprehend, are you that simple minded?

Seriously breh, stick to Camel worship as your Beyonce stanning is piss poor. You know you don't have to stan her because she is Camel's wife, right? You don't have to stan everything Jay-Z. You're embarrasing yourself out here. Moreso than usual. Your Beyonce stan game is so bad that you're out here devaluing her brand by comparing her to some sort of mixtape/indie rapper. A mixtape rapper could never do this because they don't have the brand for it. A brand that is built and promoted by commercials, world tours, radio play, Super Bowl performances and constant media attention. So comparing Beyonce's brand to that of a guy who can't get radio play in his own city touring teen party halls is fukking stupid as hell. :heh::russ:

You're comparing a Mercedes S-Class to a fukking moped. :deadrose:

So yes, this album had promotion behind it. It wasn't this zero promo bullshyt you fake Coli A&Rs try to push. Just because it isn't 12 month promo rollout doesn't mean there isn't promotion. You gargle Camel's nut 24/7 and you can't see that #newrules is more than some silly hashtag? :pachaha:

1. What the fukk has Jay-z got to do with this? You are the only one keeping him in mind while taking about her or her album. Stanning Beyonce is claiming that she's some type of god who makes millions of promo while everyone else spend millions. I've neither called the album dope nor said anything about how impressive she is or whatever the fukk your delusional ass is talking about.

2. No marketing bucks were behind the project no matter what you fukking say. What you are saying is that she's making 100 million dollars for doing promo. If that was the case everyone would make money during their promo instead of spending millions like they do.

3. Her Instagram, her visiting the White House, her eating in Brooklyn and attending fashion shows adds to her brand as well so I guess that was a part of her major promo as well.

4. Her tour was supporting her last album, JTs latest album did 300k during his tour, his last album did 1 million before the tour so I guess his promo was negative 700k in sales. Motherfukkers got to concert based on previous work.

5. The revolutionary thing Beyonce is showing is that when you are big enough the internets viral effect has the power to make label sponsored promo irrelevant.
