The fourth official single from Beyoncé's self-titled new album is said to be the Sia-penned 'Pretty Hurts'. The testimonial pop ballad is scheduled to impact US pop radio in May and the video was added to MTV playlist this week. It is expected to premiere in full on VEVO later this month. The album isn't exactly overflowing with radio-savvy hits so this song is as safe as it gets to anything on the project. It's also a random choice given that she's never performed it on tour. My pick would have been the Drake-assisted 'Mine', but we shall see.
I'm kind of ticked off that after such an epic beginning, she is wasting all that hard work. This era is starting to fall flat on its ears where the album is stalling as quickly as it sold. Where are the performances? And prior to the surprise factor selling the album and the videos being out there already, what else is there to look forward to?

Yesss! Please be a pop hit. And please for the love of god B, perform it!

This is the next best song on the album imo. The Beckys will definitely be using this for sure.

I hope B ignores pop radio on this song too.

It takes nothing for a song to go Top 50 Urban AC. One play on a syndicated show and boom Top 40. This wouldn't do a thing (significant) at Urban radio. Probably won't be big at Pop either. |

I think they should just releease all the videos to Youtube and Spotify and see if Bey can't get several more to hit the HOT 100 just by releasing the rest of the videos and shutdown the era.

Why doesn't she just release Blow to all formats? Seriously, this song to Urban? It won't flop, but it definitely isn't a great follow up to two number 1 Urban songs. Blow to all formats or Mine to Urban and this to Pop.

I was hoping this would be released. This along with "XO" are the only songs I like from her recent album.

The label took way to long to send this out, and why are they sending this here when "Flawless" has been gaining airplay for the past month? I hope this flops at these formats. I do not want to hear this on the local Urban stations all summer.

This will go Top 20 at Urban and maybe top 10 at Rhythmic.
In my emotions that ***Flawless and Mine haven't gotten Urban releases yet.

I love this side of Beyonce! I was going through some emotional stuff when she dropped the album and the only songs that I was in the mood for (besides the WONDER that is partition) were the ballads and songs like Heaven, Blue, and Pretty Hurts.
I would send this to pop and AC... not urban though... I never go to an urban station to turn down for what... will totally kill the mood.
But love the song!
