Why are we discussing soccer players and #that girl

 

Anyways, if this Friday (end of Grammy deadline) passes and Bey still hasn't released any visuals then NO ONE can deny there is some mess going on. Whether it be videos not finished or something else. No way Bey misses 2 easy noms/wins on purpose.

How many weeks has RENAISSANCE been Top 10? 9? 8? 

 

Lemonade has 17 weeks, so in trying to see something.

 

Something has to have happened, this era makes no sense. 

The funniest is a teaser (by the way, we just assume it was, it was written nowhere) or half video of ITG ( we don't know if it's actually a video either, it was just her just posing) released a whole 7 weeks ago and then nothing.

 

I still feel that the era will serve longevity. We just need some hits to take off.

8 weeks top 10 thus far (only been out for 8 weeks).

I'm predicting 12-14 at this rate. Could be more if she actually "got her f*cking ass up and worked" by releasing visuals and making CUFF IT single.


For context of other pop girl albums (SOUR has 55, while PH has 41 now, everything else the same) :

30 was top 10 for 14 weeks?

I have accepted that she ain't releasing visuals until Act 2/3 are released.

Is this what we really want for Beyoncé?

 

There’s a reason why Beyoncé gets to be the face of Tiffany and that’s because she doesn’t cheapen her image doing silly TikToks. Neither thing serves me any purpose as a fan, but being the image of a brand certainly gives her more money.

IKR? do we really want this 40-something year old woman to do cringe TikToks like Ms. Swift?

 

I honestly just want a documentary. Show us how REN was created, because it's outstanding. I don't need her on TikTok like Swift or doing twitter q&as and harassment/doxxing workshops like Nicki Minaj. There's no need.

Now this is the correct mindset.

 

Those midnight tiktok videos are cringey af. There’s no way you could seriously want her to do **** like that. Be real

Yeah I’m embarrassed for her and her fans. More interaction, yes, but not that **** Taylor is pulling. Fuckin bingo 

I see y’all in the middle #MeltdownMonday  

Im weirdly fine now. Im pretty sure we are getting the videos after the Tiffany exclusive and they are likely to come with the tour announcement. But I wouldn’t be surprised if the tour is announced beforehand because of all the leaks. 
The tour is coming and that’s bigger than everything. Get excited and call your sugar daddies.

I mean Taylor’s primary demographic are white 14-24 year olds, so something like tik tok bingo is amazing to them.

I’m sorry, are ya’ll going up for Rihanna in the Beyoncé base?  Ugh. The misery. I hate it here.

Leave my girl alone... She interacts the way she wants and feels like. At least she's doing something though. It fits her personality and the special bond she has with her fans. 

 

But yeah, they are two different types of artists.

But let's not, Bey could also do something that fits her personality and brand though, anything actually : like sending songs on radio, releasing videos for singles, doing mini docu series about the process behind the album, how the songs were created or mini IG live concerts where she does one or two songs acapella. Even reposting challenges on TikTok like she did once with BMS. However she does zero.

That was my point.

She has those CUFF IT Picks thing on her IG, which counts as her fan engagement for the season. 

Yeah you're right. I forgot.

Let's take what we get.

I hate that my mind is wired this way (because women empowerment and all that), but I can't help but be tickled (both positively and negatively) about this Rihanna Super Bowl news. Specifically in relation to Bey. 

 

The thing with Rih is that we (as The Hive) have always known her as #2. Just when shaking out the criteria for Queendom that truly matters (talent, abilities, game-changing moves). 

 

The thing is, in this streaming/social media led climate, I always sensed that Rih would end up levelling the playing field with Bey as the criteria for Queendom (in the eyes of the GP) has changed. Somehow by becoming a billionaire businesswoman (outside of music) and not releasing since 2016, the popularity and hype around Rihanna "the musician" is ironically much higher than ever. The streaming scene is ready-made for her too (given that she's never been huge pure sales seller) and she will inevitably use the Super Bowl as a huge vehicle for R9. She literally doesn't miss when it comes to handling her music right. She'll drop the right single, at the right time and do ALL the things to make the SB work to her benefit.

 

Flip over to our girl, who drops arguably the best album of her career, literally has the floor to herself (no competition culturally speaking), and does have things coming, but essentially isn't seizing the entirety of this current moment. At least not yet. 

 

I do love how "everyone can win" the industry is nowadays, but let's not delude ourselves into thinking there won't be huge comparisons between Bey and Rih incoming. Bey has always had the "bigger seller" and "bigger touring act" thing to her benefit. But I'm just saying to brace oneself for another set of debates and delusional hot takes, especially if like I predict: Rih delivers big first week numbers (bigger than Ren) and b) does decent enough at Halftime (which GP will likely hype up to be "one of the best ever".)

 

More than anything, I just hope Bey swoops in with her moment/s asap. Because while "everyone can win", that's only true if they snatch their shine when it's most advantageous. Bey's back won't be so against the wall (hypothetically speaking) if she owns the next few months in a huge way. 

FYI: I really like Rih and am excited for her show. This just an observation in relation to Bey and the long-standing interwoveness of their narratives.

u really wrote this in the beyonce base and not your diary 

anyway, bey you have won. i will officially be in shock and awe when the visuals eventually drop and we get acts ii/ii and tour news. your mission of keeping everything a secret so it can be a "surprise" has succeeded yet again. yayyyy

GOOD NEWS is both the insider on here and tabloids/random stadium owners have confirmed we getting tour announcement within next 3 weeks.

 

So we can look forward to discussing that for 2 pages... then going back to talking about album rankings and CUFF IT being ignored.

Happy 2 months of Renaissance (well at least 2 months already for you girls that listened to the l34k).

 

Can one of the insiders dm me the exact date and time the tickets come out, I’m not letting those hoes breathe. I will see this b*tch live

Yall arent going to admit Bey really messed up her appeal with the secrets, hiding music, not engaging and not promoting until the tour numbers suffer.

 

When people stop buying your music and the general consensus becomes that you are overrated, do you think people will pay premium to see you tour?  Im still awaiting the visuals but I dont think that will impact her sales or streams that much bc people just wont watch.

 

Ive never seen someone care about their career so much yet they cut it off at the knees.  Sad really.

i think it'd be really cute if her and blue made a tiktok doing the cuff it challenge
