That’s what happens when you don’t promote your music. 

 

This should be her most successful album in the UK since IASF but what can we really do

That doesn't even look like Beyonce. 

 

She didn't look like that at her album launch. I'm confused. 

Y’all know things like that Bey loves a prerecord. 

Is it bad for me to say that Beyoncé is trying so hard to look a certain way for Jay? Cause ch… I know she’s 41, but she started on the fillers way to soon. Meanwhile Jay barely looks like he’s aging. Don’t come at me. That’s what happens when the era gives us nothing to talk about. 

The makeup reminded me of this video

 

I missed hearing her voice wow

what if she’s pregnant again?

she looks swollen and drastically different

The fact is, she has created a song in Cuff It that can be enjoyed by people of all ages and all races, had the potential to be one of the biggest hits of the year around the world, and certainly one of the most globally successful of her career. 

 

Instead of embracing its very organic rise, she has curiously decided to intentionally sabotage it by stifling its performance and sending Church Girl (a very polarising and urban song which will not sell the album nor appeal to the masses) to radio. 

 

So when Renaissance ultimately underperforms, she only has herself to blame. 

 

Well done for fumbling your own bag and legacy, Beyoncé. You’ve outdone yourself this time

I genuinely think a part of the reason we haven’t got the videos is because Bey is not happy with how she looks  It’s the only explanation I have at this point because none of this makes any sense. 

 

Bey just needs to stop getting fillers and start embracing her age because she is making herself look worse. She does not suit fillers at all and she does not suit these big overdrawn lips either.

Isnt that mostly cuz of new debuts + their point system doesnt include the most successful songs on the album 

 

Maybe it'll rise back when vinyls ship

Whatever helps you cope with not having visuals yet. 
 

If that was really a concern of hers (which I’m sure it’s not) she could literally just CGI/edit the visuals to make her look however she wants. 

She might be. That’s probably why it’s taking so long to edit

And here come the conspiracies. Market records are out and available, go read them. You don't know what you're talking about. Streaming pays and it is saving the music industry that was shy of collapsing before. Once again in 2016, Drake made more money than any artist in the industry. And contrary to the other big black players, he didn't let himself be suck in a Tidal exclusive deal and that helped him become the streaming giant he is today. 

 

And lol @ smear campaign, Tidal has a ridiculous market share, AM, Deezer and the rest are bigger fishes if one wants to take down rivals.

Nobody asked them to make a conceited, tone-deaf (very on brand) video with a saving-the-world-message talking about all that it would bring them, the artists instead of what it will bring to the customers (marketing 101) to launch a streaming app. That is why it wasn't successful. 

Had they led a campaign with Hi-fi quality service and all avantages for the customers and took a step back and divorce themselves from the app a little bit just like Dre did with Beats, the customers would have flocked. This is nobody's fault but theirs. 

 You ate that

You might be onto something….

Her needing to retouch all 16 mv’s will cost additional time

The drags are an inevitable consequence of her actions. No one is making you enter the thread. 

how did this thread go from "why is church girl the next single" to blatant misogyny overnight

The man can't be to blame for everything.  If Beyoncé ever decides to alter her image, it's her doing and her doing alone. She is a grown woman, you don't need to take her will and volition away from her. 

It doesn't look like her at the party because she put a ton of filters just like that Disney's video. We also saw some pics of her coming back from vacation carrying Rumy and she looked nothing like that either. Those are just weird filters. 

 

And is it me or the red lipstick just doesn't capture her beauty or make it shine. It's like that Covid video where all the comments were about her lips being asymmetrical because she didn't put it fully on one side.

Light, subtle colors suit her best imo. But I understand the need to change it up once in a while.

My criticisms with Bey starts and stops with music related topics.

I love this video, she's such a daredevil. 

Yeah, it also made me think of this, red also highlights her cheekbones which is cute.

Her lips looks asymmetrical because the video is inverted. If she simply flipped the video, they’d look fine. Bey has always had an asymmetrical face (no shade because it’s very common) and inverted videos emphasise this more. 

Yeah this thread had gone too far.

And these are the same fans that think they are deserving of outward respect & appreciation from Beyonce

That's a pity but I hope it bounces back the upcoming weeks with new releases falling out. 

I also still have hope that the news about promo being UK focused will manifest somehow.

Some of you should work on yourselves because if the projection and unhappiness rolling off some of you is that blatantly obvious on an online forum, I can only imagine how miserable you are in real life.
