Collaboration between them happened when both were coming from very successful POP eras (Beyonce from IASF and Gaga from TF). Where’s the kii?

Agree with the Ed Sheeran but what do you mean “at this time of her career”? You mean after 20 years and with actually giving no fucks about promoting her singles cause she’s mostly focusing on her albums recently?

Wasn't Beyonce crowned as the best performer of all time the last years? Isn't being loved as a goddess in USA now? Why she can't hit #1 alone at her peak? You can't deny that she's being more loved now than 10 years ago, right? And IASF wasn't that close in terms of success with TF. Gaga was topping the charts in WW scale. With singles and album. Plus her weird image was attracting even more attention.

PS: I just noticed someone in her singles page on wikipedia, added Perfect in the "As lead artist" catergory.

Check Maroon 5's chart positions and album sales right before MLJ. They helped each other

 

But it's not like they were a flop before Xtina, or didn't achieve nothing, they already had a #1 song, I don't even listen to them but reading their wikipedia pages  before Moves Like Jagger, "It Won't Be Soon Before Long" debuted on #1 with +400K  something else is that they only released two albums before that, (2002, 2007) I'm not saying it kidna boosted each other, but they already had solid numbers, and they still do, Xtina don't

In terms of record salees, Bey's peeak was in the 2000s. Not this decade. The fact that she can sill sell albums the way she does 21 years after her debut, while establishing herself as a top vocalist, performer and a global touring force is very impressive.

Yes but what it has to do with this thread? That “goddess” narrative is boring when Beyoncé herself wants to be excluded from it. Also commercial peak =/= artistic peak. Her latest solo lead Formation peaked at #10 with no effort from her side. It’s not a #1 but not every FOTP fave has that.

I never said they were close in terms of success (“both were coming from very successful POP eras”) but still IASF was a successful era - Beyoncé was also topping the charts with singles and album whether you like it or not. IASF sold 9M copies WW and Halo is the most streamed song from 00s by a female artist. The Fame was Gaga’s commercial peak. My point that they were coming off from successful eras still stands so I am asking again: where’s the kii?

Isn't just artistic peak. People praise her now more than 10 years ago and it's just clear, I still remember the overeaction after the Coachella performance this year.

That she had to work with the hottest name in music twice. Why she had to include Lady Gaga out of nowhere in a remixed version of Video Phone, instead of releasing only the solo version of the album? The album version is solo, right? Now that i'm thinking about it, something similar happened with Perfect too.

She's not in her commercial peak and numbers don't lie. People might talk about her more nowadays but have you noticed that most of the time they mention her two latest releases (or sometimes she's being called "Single Ladies" or "Crazy In Love" singer by some media outlets). Reactions after her Coachella performance have nothing to do with commercial peak but rather with artistic peak by the way.

Had to? She was asked as the song was originally wrote for Britney and Britney was asked first to be a feature. I think about it this way: Gaga jumped on the remix of Video Phone and Bey jumped on Telephone. Is that bad that two popular singers want to collab with each other? I think not.

Ed Sheeran also asked Beyonce to be featured on Perfect (his tweet said "I'm just basically gonna despacito Perfect") and she agreed.

[Gabe. 46,321]

Perfect because it's shit.

[ParentalAdvisory 8,162]

BL , she used it to get a fast lil hit in Europe and it worked, its still her only #1 hit here in Germany

just bcs of Shakira ofc, Godkira is one of the best selling female artists here in germany with single and albums sales.

 

the Ed feat was tragic i love how the Ed solo version outsold it while the beyonce version fell down

 

telephone is still her best selling single ww

not with that avi/signature sis  

or should we say Pretty Girls?

What about Till The World Ends?

S&M?  

 

The only desperate attempt was Pretty Girls 

The Rihmix went number 1 thanks to her 

TTWE was a hit already long before the remix 

G-Eazy was a newcomer during the creation of Make Me...

A lie. He was known to the rap community and lowkey to GP too. For example: I Mean It (single from 2014 from the album that sold 1M copies) is certified 3x platinum and Me Myself & I was a huge hit so he wasn’t a “newcomer”

To the GP he was still a newcomer. Me, Myself and I was his first hit lbr

He wasn't and I already said why. Before Glory even happened he released two successful albums (both of them platinum certified) and platinum singles. If something it was only desperate because Britney's team was expecting another MM&I-like hit.

[Brightflower 19,304]

That desperation is paying off ig. Several top ten hits around the world and sales that all go to ha.

1. Remove 'only'.

2. Yeah, because Rihanna didn't have 9 #1s before that.

3. Where?

4. Yeah, because Britney was more relevant than Drake, Bey, Ari, Rih... in 2016.

Yes, I am a fan of a woman who is capable of outsinging and outdancing and is more relevant and talented than your fave nowadays, even though J.Lo is 12 years older than her.  Now go watch Stiffney dancing and awfully lypsincing on her Piece of Me tour while I watch GodLo's snatching VMAs performance.
