:wtf:

All of her songs are charting though and she gets heavy play on the radio, maybe not as much as RiRi but she has ascended to a level where it really doesn't matter if she ever makes a radio hit again.

If you listen to the radio, it's full of women and men with these soft ass voices. Aint no room for people with those strong voices anymore. :yeshrug:

once you have a strong base, you don't need radio anymore.

You think these old white rock artists who still tour 200 dates a year with no song on the radio need radio? No. Prince didn't need radio for the last decade of his life.

Basically the internet is the new radio.

She's not looking for singles anymore she's just trying to make albums. It's not that hard to understand.

Define hits, because her last 3 singles are all top 20 hits. That sounds like an artist than still produces radio hits.

And if it's about dominance, has she ever really DOMINATED radio play? Maybe around Halo & Single Ladies, but that's it. Rihanna has dominated radio way more than Beyonce.
