All the controversy and publicity Beyonce’s new single “Formation” received propelled the song as her highest career debut on the R&B/Hip-Hop Airplay chart at No. 11 with 16.3 million in audience.
According to Nielsen Music, “Formation’s” debut even surpassed her 2008 mega-hit “Single Ladies (Put a Ring on It)”, which was her prior best debut at No. 20.
All this success, and the song isn’t even available for purchase yet!
In other Bey news, it was announced earlier this week that dates to her “Formation Stadium Tour” this summer were already selling out in certain cities, so the singer has added two new more dates in Chicago and London!
According to Billboard, tickets for the new Chicago show go on sale Feb. 25 for the May 28th show at Soldier Field and tickets for the newly-added London show go on sale on sale Feb. 23 for at the July 3rd show at Wembley Stadium.
