Yes, I hate this talking point from fans. She's above everything and apparently the gp felt that way too and moved on from her. Janet, Mariah, and Madonna are still vying to stay relevant lol.. yet Beyonce is above it all? Edited September 13, 2023 by carameldelight 4

Every other weekend I'm in Dallas though so sometimes I just tell folks I'm from Texas. I like Oklahoma City, seems like it's on the comeup, I haven't been in a year or two, but the downtown is cute. Oklahoma is pretty though. I'm not sure being Texan is better 1

Brikenbur Posted September 13, 2023 Posted September 13, 2023 It’s crazy how both “HEARD ABOUT US” and “FIND YOUR WAY BACK” easily lives within my Top 10 of Bey’s best after I initially disregarded them

Mitsouko Posted September 13, 2023 Posted September 13, 2023 When I was like 7 I was obsessed with Oklahoma for some reason. I had a book about Oklahoma City. I honestly have no ****ing idea why and it couldn't have lasted long. Probably I'd read a Little House On The Prairie book and was romanticizing the plains for a month. 5

Ugh the way lambs were FED during the autobiography era a couple years ago and now she’s uploading old demos to YouTube and answering fan questions. 1
carameldelight Posted September 13, 2023 Posted September 13, 2023 The whole USAtoday thing feels like a *** for tat. Am I reading too much into it?

She's above everything and apparently the gp felt that way too and moved on from her. Janet, Mariah, and Madonna are still vying to stay relevant lol.. yet Beyonce is above it all? Beyoncé's persona is far different than any of those mentioned, and I think the difference is that Beyoncé became a legend in real time while she was currently active, relevant and popular. This has created a different relationship to Beyoncé from the public, fans and fellow celebrities. We brag that she's the celebrity's celebrity and it's for this reason. Her scarcity and the level of respect makes seeing her an unbelievable thing, so in many ways compared to what is given at these awards shows, she does in fact seem like she's in a league above them. Janet, Mariah nor Madonna (from what I know) were never as revered and respected during their creative heydays so it's a different thing. You can look at how Beyoncé was treated at this year's Grammys, for example, to see the tone of respect and the way that she is regarded. By their seventh albums, Madonna, Janet and Mariah were very much still playing the pop game, and needing to. Beyoncé has very clearly not been doing that since at least the last decade, and doesn't seem to need to do so either when it comes to respect or even a certain level of success. (I also don't see those named particularly vying for relevance outside of Madonna maybe but that's another topic). Edited September 13, 2023 by swissman
swissman Posted September 13, 2023 Posted September 13, 2023 (edited) I just don't understand what more we actually need than just great music? I know very well what we want and I of course want it too, but at some point we just need to give it up and just relax into having what we do have from her. Because realistically, do you see Beyoncé getting more commercially minded? Is she suddenly gonna be a promo queen? Maybe. Maybe it's a master plan to be low-key act i and then all out in act ii / iii. But that also seems unlikely. Every era since 2011 she's only gotten less commercially minded. So what do you do now? Complain about it forever? Is that really the state you want to be in? Or maybe you can just enjoy the music, and be glad she's putting out quality...the one thing that has increased every era since 2011. Edited September 13, 2023 by swissman

Its very simple why theres always complaining surrounding Bey: - Lack of maximizing potential - Lack of fun following her Shes a great artist to just pay attention to every now and then these days, but to follow? Not really if we are being honest 2
Blue Rose Posted September 13, 2023 Posted September 13, 2023 I feel like we have heard 3 songs from Act II already. Echoes, the song with the “I beat that ***** with a bat” sample and the song with “it’s time for the percolator” sample. 1

As I've been saying, she's not giving us a tour AND and album in the same year. She's not overfeeding us because she wants us hot and skinny at the shows (otherwise it's too expensive and strenuous to remove disruptive elements from the footage). Get ready for the The Acts Tours Trilogy Compilation (exclusively on digital) in 2028. If we behave well, we might get questionable stale leftovers the visuals at some point later this year. It's like a treat.
