"To make this work, tickets will be nontransferable and the tour may cancel tickets posted elsewhere for more than face value," the release continued. "Birds of a Feather," the second single, is now the most-streamed song on Spotify by a female in the last decade, surpassing 2.5 billion streams, making it the fastest song in history to achieve this, according to the release. The single is also the longest charting solo song by a female artist in Billboard Pop Airplay chart history. The album and songs received a total of seven Grammy nominations, including Record of the Year, Song of the Year and Album of the Year.
