Beyonce is too smart to fall in the trap and even her pop songs will lean to the middle don't you worry, the first one sounds like a Halo part deux.

lol @ people actively discussing this fiction. if bey had send out her songs anywhere they would've leaked by now.
bey testing a song would be her taking a trip down to z100 and meeting with the programmers in charge. not this random mess being discussed in here.

Yeah, obviously they haven't played them on the radio...."testing" means playing them for program directors, focus groups, etc.

I hope nothing leaks this time. I want this era to go perfectly. If the "news" is true, I'm glad they are taking their time choosing a lead single. They saw how things can go when you choose such a polarizing first single. And I actually hope she does dual singles, because I'm not sure Pop will play an Urban leaning song(well they will play it, but would it go top 10?). And I don't want her to try and send a pop leaning song to Urban, and piss them off lol.

Obviously nothing remotely official, but the single is supposedly called "Rollercoaster" feat. Miguel: from ATRL

I think a dual single is necessary..especially now. pop radio will shun anything too urban and urban radio will shun anything too pop. with the new chart formats and the fickle single buying public she needs to appeal to both urban and pop.

Not going to believe or get excited over anything yet, but we do know that she was working with Miguel so this is very plausible. I think a dual single is necessary..especially now. pop radio will shun anything too urban and urban radio will shun anything too pop. with the new chart formats and the fickle single buying public she needs to appeal to both urban and pop. Actually the new chart formats lean in Beyonce's favor if she wants to stick with one single. See "Diamonds" and how BB deemed it to be an urban song just b/c it was toiling in the 60's on airplay at the time, and then after the new formula it took off in adds/spins. A Beyonce song would get the same treatment - even if she didn't officially send the song to urban she'd have enough curiosity spins to chart. So BB will consider it urban and her CHR (and possibly HAC) airplay + digital sales will send her to #2 very quickly. Only reason she might not debut at #1 is b/c it would take her a few weeks to close the AI gap between her and "Diamonds," which isn't freefalling yet. I'm expecting a CC deal though. If "Rollercoaster" is true having Miguel on it is a good move to secure urban; he's a current staple who is in no danger of being accused of crossover backlash, so this hopefully gives r&b fans the impression that she is still committed to them.

Sounds pretty fake to me, especially that "intro" clip, lol. But I'd love for some new Beyonce.

I'm so excited for the new era! I'm hoping she doesn't do a duel single release, and release one song with crossover appeal as the first single. I have such a good feeling about this era, she has great promo already lined up, which is what she was missing during the 4 era. Hopefully this album can be one of her most successful ones!

There can be some pop/pop-leaning songs on an R&B album. Also have you heard Kendrick Lamar's "Bitch Don't Kill My Vibe" the version with Gaga doing the chorus? She (can) sing more than pop.

I think people are looking into the "ratchet" earrings too much. Bee and her team have had everything completely on lock so far. I'm actually glad the 12 roses/rollercoaster rumor turned out to be a hoax.

Coming for that 1.3 milz. And yeah everything's real hush hush, I really don't think the era is going to start like this. I expect a grand entrance to the era, especially with her lineup for the next few months.
