Beyonce 2 Release 'Love On Top'

Beyonce is currently riding the wave of lackluster singles off her disappointing fourth album, '4.'


She released the first single, 'Run The World (Girls)' in April and it peaked at #29, the second single, 'Best Thing I Never Had' was rush released in June and rose to #16. Determined to have at least one single in the Top 10 she released two singles back-to-back in October. The third single, 'Countdown' and current single, 'Party' which reached #71 and #54 respectively.


The fifth single, 'Love on Top' was firsted premiered at the MTV Video Music Awards back in August. The music video was released in October and will be released to radio on December 6. I personally think this song will be a dud. I think out of all the tracks, 'End of Time' could be a minor hit for her. 


Better luck next time.
