If Bey doesn’t perform at the VMAs this year, it’ll be the first time ever she doesn’t perform at the show while having a new album out.

She might also spend her birthday in Europe aswell. But that's fine, i know everyone has different opinions on this but she's just chilling her life. She's been working non-stop for the past years.

 

Wishing you a nice vacation, Bey! (I know she or someone from Parkwood will read this) <3

Heated about to surpass AHAP and Alien as my 3rd most played. Did not foresee this.

Make peace with the fact that there either wont be a single #2 or the official release will be way too late like end of October

 

Time to place our bets for 2023. 

Never seen this interview before, the DIL era (2003)

I hate that shes rich and doesnt have to hustle anymore

This is really lowkey my own selfish (I know) thinking too. 

 

Like, imagine telling the label ur going on vaca during the first month of the album drop. We are seeing Chloe/Halle literally everywhere, so Parkwood is rolling it in.

 

Ivy Park and Fenty Beauty really screwed us all over lol. Rih is NEVER coming back either, watch.

I mean its all obviously exaggerated when we complain. We got yet another masterpiece by Bey, so obviously we are fed and happy. Its just a bummer to see so so much potential go to waste. Not even because she doesnt want to go out of her way to promote: we are literally just BEGGING for an official release of single #2, a MV for BMS and Single #2, and some payola when it comes to radio and streaming. Thats literally all we are asking for. Its the bare minimum

She performed at every award show in 2016. She promoted Lemonade. It was just pointless since no one could stream it. The VMAs are this weekend. She shouldve been working on that instead of going on her 30th vacation this year 

She performed at the VMAs because she was heavily nominated then. She'll be nominated in 2023, and she'll likely perform then. 4/6 times she's performed, she was nominated for VOTY. The other two times she was up for at least 3 and she won at least 1. It makes sense that she decides not to show up, imo.

I think it’s very telling how many Beyoncé hate threads people were able to bump in the last few weeks and yet every slightly shady Gaga thread gets closed and hidden. Another example of clear mods bias is that bundles thread a monster just created and it backfired, so of course it’s gets hidden. Im 110% sure the thread would’ve still been up if it didn’t backfire

Wouldnt it be easier to perform this year instead of next year since it’s very likely she will be on tour next summer? Oh well, she likes to make things complicated so we’ll see

At this point a part of me wants her to be nominated 10 times at the Grammys and lose them all Harry, Adele and Silk Sonic. I hope they zoom in on her face and then a fan is shown with a sign that ready "thats what u get for not acting like a normal popstar who cares about her project a month after its release"

Not them hiding that thread after the embarrassment.  You have to laugh.

Hmmm maybe. But she had a tour date in Europe the day after the BET Awards in 2016 and she even paid herself everything necessary to make it happen, so that doesn't make it impossible.

A concept:

- open the grammys with Break My Soul

- 3 hours later, close the grammys with the lead single from act ii

 

Crazy how each time I listen to heated I hear so many new intricacies and layers. At 2:00 she does this "whole lottah" with a follow up "la la la la laaa" bit that I never noticed before but now it sticks out massively to me.

Girl you know she’s not gonna stay that long.  She’ll do her performance at the start of the show and leave the premises by the time they give out the first award.

Act 2 will most likely be out and she would probably perform that instead. She missed a great chance of promo this year. 

I really hope she plans some live performances for Act 1 because the music really feels like it would totally blossom in that format

It’s crazy to think that she’s probably already sitting on all the finalised music and visuals for acts 2 and 3. She’s probably listened/watched it so many times that she’s tired of it by now. And we’ve still got it all yet to come.

I dont know what ur Smoking but I guarantee she hasnt even started sketching those visuals out

Who knows. As we’ve seen in the ITG teaser she filmed so many visuals for act 1 and some of them were shot outdoors, and we had no clue she’d been so busy all these months. She can be so secretive that it’s hard to know what she’s been up to.

Ill be completely frank with u - I think she has only shot these Videos a couple of months ago (like 3 months ago) and the moment she could post sth, she did. They are not sitting on these visuals, they are 100% still editing. The moment its ready, we get a release date that it's coming within 3 days. Bookmark me on that!

Ok after constantly listening  to the album I think I FINALLY may have a few favorites. 

 

1.I'm That Girl (Constantly stuck in my head! a mantra! an ANTHEM!)

2.Move (Love the ATTITUDE, and Grace Jones & Tems are such good features!) 

3. Alien Superstar (NO NEED TO EXPLAIN HERE )

4.Church Girl (I'm from the South baby I GETS IT HUNNIE. )

 

 

This list is subject to change AT ANYTIME

I honestly haven’t gotten to the point where I’m itching for content tbh, obviously I’m still excited for what’s to come and the potential, but right now I’m still enjoying and digesting the album, not in a rush to see visuals or performances at the moment

Same here. Honestly the more i listen to this album, the more i understand Beyoncé not rushing the visuals or doing any promotion at all. This album is so low key, it's like it can truly stand on its own without all of that.
