This is a weird thing to do but hopefully they start pushing CUFF IT to Urban/ Urban AC/ Rhythmic and ALIEN SUPERSTAR to Pop/ Hot AC :jonny2:

I don't understand them at all. :ace:

  • It was the best concert of my life, bar none. Idc!    It was extraordinary, it was ineffable.  I knew I loved it based on the videos but I... Hey I don't know.    Best moment

    I know this award is a joke but the point is, she has cemented herself in history with the likes of Whitney and Lauryn. And on top of that she won an award for a genre that completely ridiculed and ex

All I know is Heated ft. Drake needs to be a single after Alien Superstar. I see the vision, 3 top 5s this era right there. :jonny5:

Church Girl is the better Urban single choice

 

Cuff It is another multiplatform single choice that could come after those 2

She needs to strike while the iron is hot and it’s hottest with Cuff It and Alien Superstar.

Oh definitely. This is a #1 waiting to happen. If it were in the first half of the album I think it would still be charting like Church Girl :fan:

Longevity is her issue. 

she is on her 25th year in the industry and just got a #1 on the hot 100 it’s not an issue. she’s not dropping everything all at once for that longevity. now imagine if she dropped everything weeks ago and then went on vacation and then didn’t give us anything until next year/whenever act ii comes out. i wish she would’ve done some quick lil performances or something but a wait is better than everything at once then silence :jonny4:

 

JUST GO DO SOMETHING ELSE WHILE YALL WAIT DAMN

Ur wrong.

Why did she pull BMS? :deadbanana2: is she going to drop the first single from act 2 :deadbanana2: something is up 

Y’all need to go outside and touch some grass. Beyoncé literally doesn’t need to subscribe to traditional promo anymore. She does stuff on her own time… I think y’all should’ve gotten this by now. If this was a new artist pulling these tatics then I could’ve understand the sentiments being shared but she’s not. She’s an established act. She honestly doesn’t need to have a another commercial era. Some of y’all want the visuals for the wrong reasons… to gloat about commercial success. Her fans will still care about the visuals even if it’s released a year from now. That’s all that matters.

they want to be able to keep up with stan arguments happening on here and twitter

 

that's all this is REALLY about but we won't ever get that truth

These are right. 

What Bey did right in this Renaissance era:

Album announcement

Tracklist reveal

Artwork (LATE) reveal

Physicals (albeit limited)

IG posts/Tweets

 

What she needs to improve:

2nd single

VISUALS

Proper utilization of TikTok (not just copy pasting IG)

Live perfs

More Promo



TikTok isn't just for marketing but also to make you relatable to the GP. That viral Renaissance-themed sleepover one? Bey could've easily done that or repost it.

No you need to hear THE TRUTH:

I am a fan of Bey since 1997. Ive followed her career ever since im following music.

I, the fan I am, watched Black Is King twice. 2 times. Thats it. I havent watched ANY of the MVs separately. Why? Because she lost me when she had me wait for the project 1 year. I completely lost interest in it.

The last MV I truly watched multiple times of her was Formation. Why? Because it was released right away.

 

Now take my perspective as a die hard fan and realize this is the case for the majority of people consuming her "art".

I live for her creative mind, her voice, her vision, but her management or lackthereof is pure garbaganna

Considering the hive spends a lot of time on this board defending Beyonce in other threads; the base is a space to let out our grievances. I don't see the issue with people expressing themselves.

 

Also, there's nothing to talk about lol.. We can't even discuss a second single because we don't know if there is one.  I saw a tiktok video the other day of someone asking why haven't they seen Renaissance all over the place like they did with Harry/Taylor/Adele releases. 

 

The visuals will come whenever. 

 

The way Beyonce said "CA CA CA"  was really intriguing. The enunciation was impeccable can't wait to see how it comes to life in the video. 

 

 

 

 

Two things can be true at once, it's perfectly fine to be irritated with the way the era is going. At the same time though Beyoncé doesn't really have to play the "game" anymore. Not to mention, her team clearly has something up their sleeves.

 

Y'all stay doing the most. Of she drops videos and thr album soars again all will be forgotten and forgiven. If she drops videos and nothing sticks alot of y'all will have pie on your faces.

 

Regardless, the moment she announces her tour the tickets will sell per usual.

 

With Beyoncé it's always going to be win, win. Some of just wish she'd try harder (or at least her team since she wants to rest now) and that's perfectly valid.

Y’all flip-flopping already? Y’all usually wait until the era is over.

I was an OHH (Obsessive Heated Hater) prior to the album release because of that SASSY stunt Miss Aubrey pulled. But it ended up being my most played lately. :jonnycat:

 

1. Virgo's Groove

2. Heated

3. Alien Superstar novelty wore off a bit

4. America Has A Problem

5. Summer Reneigh

I sometimes wonder how Bey feels about her own campaigns. She was the same person who was judging people for not creating albums anymore and putting new ones out without any true artistic vision.

While she has all of that, she basically just drops her albums and pretty much leaves afterwards. Her albums are super shortlived because of that and do not manage to prevail.

Doesnt this also make her part of the "burn out"-circle she judges? Its not like her eras have any bigger longevity than those who annually release albums tbh.

 

Yep, Sour, Planet Her and Future Nostalgia are TRUE album eras, fan knows every song.

And fans of Bey don't know every song on Renaissance?
