too bad KIB is flopping.
Not a 2 month book OWT
Guys, remember to post this again next week Monday.
*cries in Bey's Formation sale numbers*
She's so iconic :stressed:
We need #1 more week then we're coming for Moo
I didn't even expect this to go #1. And when it did I expected 3 or 4 weeks tops.
KIB was bubbling under last week and debuted at 80 this week and Needed Me is up to 47. I love this.
Wow so work is her 2nd most successful single, that's unexpected
This really is one of the best Pop songs in recent years so it's deserving.
