The Grammy nominations were announced last Friday.
As you may have heard, Beyonce scored a whopping 11 for her “Cowboy Carter” album.
But where are the sales? According to hitsdailydouble, Beyonce got no sales bounce from the news.
“Cowboy Carter” won’t even be in the top 50 this coming week. Counting concludes tomorrow night.
This is in stark contrast to the other ladies who were nominated. Taylor Swift, Billie Eilish, Sabrina Carpenter, Chappell Roan each sold an average of 48,000 copies of their nominated albums since the announcement. Even Charlie XCX did well.
What is the disconnect with Beyonce? Maybe it’s because she does no promotion whatsoever. Eilish was on “SNL” two weeks ago. The others are all over the media. But Beyonce remains an enigma.
Anyway, we won’t cry for Beyonce. She’s living a pretty good life. Can she win the Grammys by doing nothing? Does she care? I guess we’ll find out.
