Bey did swoop in and steal the limelight, but as big as rih is, she's not playing in beyonce's sandbox (pause :whoa:). Rih gonna have them singles burning up the chart, Beyonce is gonna push albums. Rih gonna get the 30 and under crowd out to her 16-18k arenas, bey gonna have the 5-60 year olds rocking in 65k person stadiums.

Its a cold war between rihanna and Beyonce. Those hos dont fx with each other. I agree rihanna shyt should have been left to breathe a little.

Anyone know what tidals numbers are. Streaming seems like a tough business to make money from

Cats love talking without facts. Jay Z was President of Def Jam and RIhanna had been managed by Roc Nation for years. You think they suddenly forgot how to release her albums?

Rihanna fukked up her own release because she kept scrapping singles and starting over. She originally let Kanye EP her album and then started over. Second, RIhanna just got a guaranteed platinum plaque and her single is number 4 on the charts. What are you all talking about? It's clearly about to go number 1 with the video dropping on Monday.

Rihanna is fine.

How do you blame Tidal for Kanye not dropping his album on time when he kept reworking it?

Artist pay to perform at the Super Bowl, it would have been a waste to not capitalize off that moment

It doesn't really matter, one single for an album that might drop 3 months from now. Rihanna's single is #2 on iTunes, Beyonce's hasn't even released that wack ass song as a single. It seems as if it was all about the message in the video and performance.

Beyonce's performance/video was addressing a field that's completely removed from Rihanna's lane. Beyonce tour US tour starts when Rihanna's ends.

Bey JUST performed at the Super Bowl a couple yrs ago

It would have been better for business if Rih got that look
