Beyonce's team did leak two singles last summer.



She leaked Bow Down B%$^& and it received negative reviews. She renamed it "Flawless" on her new album because of the negative feedback she received from the original title of the song.

This was all over the news, couldn't miss it. They were playing the song on the radio to.



They also leaked Grown Woman which also appeared in her Pepsi Ad commercial. She also showcased the song on her tour.



They purposely leaked those songs to see the public reaction. When her team realized those singles were not strong to stand alone by themselves they copied David Bowies idea.

Bowie dropped his album without any promotion and without telling anybody. He did not leak any of his songs before he did that.
