I’m not sure why people are questioning whether something is coming, when we KNOW that we are getting at least 16 videos. It’s just a matter of when. Unless yall think she shot those 20 looks in the ITG teaser just for that purpose?  She’s obviously gone to a lot of effort and I’m sure it wasn’t just to give us those few milliseconds.

And also maybe she’s trying to avoid oversaturation. Remember we are [allegedly] getting 3 albums in a short space of time. That may mean an album every 4 months for all we know. So perhaps one single is enough. Do we really want her to release 3 singles from every album - meaning 9 singles in a year? Maybe the plan all along was to push one song from each.

 

There’s a reason why things are the way they are and I’m sure it will all become apparent soon.

Lol. The meltdown will be a disaster and bigger than The Gift if she flops with her studio album. This base will be like how it was post TG and pre-REN. 

True but after a time they'll move on. If nothing interesting happens, if no effort for stans' excitement is put in, if that hunger for her is not fed, the fans will gradually learn to press play on Spotify the first few weeks, go on tour and move on. 

I mean we used to always have a Beyoncé dedicated board around... now there's none, the amazing board that we had after ST, had to close after Lemonade,  I remember they kept saying they had to pump money in it to keep it running. The Hive even gave donations but it wasn't enough. Thirdward tried to make one, it flopped and he turned it into an all-celebs board. 

Even this thread used to be completely dead before the album. And we are sticking here despite the overwhelming racism because we have nowhere else viable to go to discuss her or feed our love for her. 

Even now, just three weeks after the album,  most of the time, the base barely moves. 

The fewer people online, the fewer engagement to buy, stream or request or radio but also fewer meltdowns, expectations and complaining. So more peace for her and her team. You win some,  you lose some. 

 

 

This is me!. 

And I have actually listened to the full album once today on my way to work.

I've listened to it 3 times already today and it's not even noon yet. 

To put the Queen Remix of BMS at the end of Renaissance has to be the best thing ever  its like the encore at the end of an amazing concert

Saw that Azealia thread and could not help but agree y'all still ain't **** for gassing up Ren but trashing TG 

We didn't trash The Gift. Most Hive love that album. 

The GP is the one who didn't like it. 

Also the TG is good but Ren is vastly superior.

The Gift is amazing, it’s not our fault Bey doesn’t lift a finger for her work.

Yet every time I come in here to call it a spiritual experience I get shunned 

What do you mean by shunned? Are you saying you said TG is a great album and the Hive opposed to that opinion? 

We spend time praising FYWB,  Otherside and Bigger in particular.

I laid in some grass and listened to Rennie on 7/29/22 on some ???and Virgos groove truly transported me to another dimension

I don't need a huge blow out smash era. Just a proper era that serves longevity. She's doing better than previous era's but she needs to step it up. 

 

I don't think the label is worried. Beyonce has solidified her track record of #1 albums and singles. She has her own label. She'll make any losses back through touring.

Please like the visuals and the music records itself and deliver on the level they do. I know she is annoying and does things in a very demoralizing way post-release (for the the fans!) but she def is lifting a finger and more for each and every one of her projects. 

Was talking about promo and accessibility, which is what sells the work at the end, but if she doesn’t care why would we?

lets talk about which videos are you MOST excited for

 

pick your Top 3

 

- Pure/Honey

- Church Girl

- Break My Soul

Break My Soul

Heated

Alien Superstar

 

…that was hard lol. Because there are just so many expectations I have for full out choreo. The only way I will accept no choreo on Heated or AHAP is if she hired Zendaya, Normani and Tinashe to dance for her.

I don't understand why her discography is doing worse than before despite Ren.

 

 

She used to do around 7/8M daily streams on Spotify. 

Well at least IASF will get to 3B soon. 

 

 

Only 8 min streams for Rennie? Phew, the decline is starting to get real.

I had hoped shed stabilize around 10mio streams. That's quite rough  

Anyone knows which artist that hasn't done any live interviews for 10 years? 

She really hurt herself on streaming after lemonade. Art hive didn’t believe us.  She’s already down to #6 on top female streaming on Spotify and the album is barely a month old.

no y’all spilled heated went OFF at the club. that cuff it and break my soul had the crowd hot 

 

i agree like go to the club and y’all will hear the songs and see what they’re meant for (getting y’all ass to go out and have fun) lol i heard cozy in a restaurant today. bey is back 

I actually heard Virgo’s Groove on the radio and was pleasantly surprised

My Top3 most anticipated videos are

 

1. Virgo's Groove - it's the best so I'm dying to see what she does with it 

2.Alien Superstar - not necessarily one of my faves but I have a feeling she's gonna do something sick for it and it will be one of the best videos

3.Plastic Off The Sofa - this is one of my faves but also it's the most atypic song on the album and the only mid tempo so I'm really intrigued

It's not just that, it's the layout of the ERA, too. 

Videos I need:

 

Alien Superstar (it's going to be sickening)

Heated (is she going to do ballroom/vogue?)

Pure/Honey (like what will this even be?!)

I heard Virgos Groove in my HIIT class today

what promo do y’all want her to do besides putting out the videos (which we know is happening soon just a matter of time)

 

vmas?? i mean that would be cute and make sense idk why she wouldn’t just show up late and pop in or at least send a quick lil trailer. maybe she pre recorded a performance
