It still confuses me that if they really are in a deal with a streaming company right now, and they cannot contractually release until allegedly summer, that still makes no sense to me. How would the streaming company (wasn’t it HBO max?) maximize their profits/viewers by promoting visuals for an album that would be months old? Surely they realize nobody is actively craving the visuals right now, let alone when it’s June/July… 

 

So do they want this album to make noise/garner streams and get money? If so why are they actively making so many bizarre decisions that inhibit them from maximizing their profits? What do you want from this mess? Either go all out and drain us of every cent, or stay completely and utterly silent with no information at all, this weird in-between activity and then silence is so confusing and irritating as a fan. I was certain we would at least get a tour announcement by now, this is crazy.

 

 

I’ve checked out of this “era” anyways, I’ve been enjoying the music and moving on to other upcoming artist’s albums. Didn’t even bat an eye at that “Hive certified” mess. I’m looking the other way until tour or visuals are announced. Granny better count her days because Keri Hilson is clearing her with ease

I do think ACT II will even further her streaming power.

 

Taylor did the same thing, it worked well

Yes! Only difference is Bey is much older now

It's another BiK situation where only fans check in, the visuals wouldn't be any diff and the ship has sailed for the GP to even care. Art not the charts, music not the bling kinda indie girl. It will make more noise if she announces the visual/tour at the same time.

 

It is shady that Parkwood posted the cover without Beyonce though....   Bey is missing

I don't think Beyonce will benefit as much as Taylor did, but it absolutely will benefit her streaming power to release multiple albums in quick succession

My theory: she is going to release the visuals after the Grammy awards, because she thinks she’s going to win album of the year.

I think it's one of those "signs". Probably means something.

 Shining teas.

What’s really tickling me rn is this loud as section of Twitter hive that repeats at least 5 times a day everything Beyoncé accomplished with Renaissance with no visuals. Like girls, who are ya’ll trying to convince here? Lol.

Yes, I think it’s success is commendable, but to a point. Everything could have succeeded 5X better with visuals, and a sprinkle of promo. Like even me as a stan, equal parts art hive and chart hive ’m tied of hearing “And without visuals” in an echo chamber. It sounds like their reminding themselves more than anything. 

I'm surprised you guys still want the visuals. My interest for it is nonexistent now. I wish she will have videos ready for the upcoming singles but what I would appreciate is for her to actually perform and show interest in the album.

Thing is, if the visuals aren’t  coming until summer then Act 2 probably isn’t either. I thought each act would come within a year and a half but it’s probably over 3 years? 

3 years again? After almost 7 years hiatus? No. If the acts are not coming in 1 year of each other, hey miss thingy will have a big surprise.

C'mon, they know BMS is not an RnB song, it's a full house song. That is so frustrating. 

I can understand Renaissance as a lot of songs are RnB/urban. 

 

-----------------

By the way I am surprised, she's completely out of the top 20 on BB200! I expected a sales' boost for her. Her pure sales have been disappointing this era. Are there still stocks?

No I definitely still need to see the visuals.

If Beyoncé were to ever do an interview again, I hope would be with Angie Martinez. Her IRL podcast is one of the best things that has come out of 2022

I would love too. Plus the fact that Angie knows Jay and B can make the interview cool & laid-back with great questions

Yes plus even though she's real, open and transparent I don't get messy vibes from her. Bey and Jay seem to love her.

Renaissance is already my most listened Giselle’s album ever passing Madam BEYONCÉ today when I checked the # on my iTunes 

 

My god, the expectation she set for herself is so high. I really have no idea how she’s going to follow up with act II n III. I need to have no expectation going into it.

 

 

All these complaints about no promo and visuals are so stupid to me, it’s clear Beyoncé knows what she’s doing. She’s about to release 3 albums, she needs to avoid overexposure, she’s thinking long term. Literally in the name of the era renaissance. I really feel like we may get a in depth documentary especially if the second album is acoustic. It’s been almost a decade since her last interview/life is but a dream, I can really see her giving something similar, talking about why she stopped giving interviews, jayz cheating on her etc.

I love film & art in general, so there's no reason for me to not to be curious about them. Especially as we've been teased to expect the unexpected and other kinds of rumours. If they never arrived, I also wouldn't be too bothered/

Beyond being curious to see how she evolves from Lemonade/BIK film making wise, I'm also keen for the album to receive a second wind because Cuff It is not really doing enough to keep it afloat. That may just be the role of a third single, really hammering home that Bey has a great new album out and getting the casuals to check it out after a 1/2/3 punch, or a 1/2 punch if you're not in an Anglo country (the only ones BMS performed well in)

The album could be kept afloat and of interest to the GP, if you know, there would be more enga…dare i say it.. ment.

 

This being said, daily reminder for @bijonse that nothing has happened today
