The way the HBO Max tea about the visuals coming summer 2023 right before tour is probably true 

Although I fully expect a Grammys performance, all that matters for me is that we are getting visuals+tour by the summer and a new album this year. 

If she is doing visuals for act 2, hopefully she is looking for a deal already, not waiting until they are filmed

no bc only videos for the singles and probably alien superstar we would’ve been ok shjsjssj

or at least upload them and tell us a whole visual album is coming at the end of the era 

that trailer ****** everything up now fans are DEMANDING a visual album

BMS, Cuff It and Alien Superstar would be perfect... She created this misery herself, it makes 0 sense. I really wish she never released that stupid ass trailer.

3 albums 

tour(s?)

visual album(s?) 

that’s a bit too much I wonder what goes on at parkwood meetings

and ngl it’s sad bc 3 albums so 3 eras to look forward to is more than enough 

getting 9 well made videos >>> 

 now she gotta make 3 visual albums now?

I feel like they’ll all be combined into one thing, that’s why it’s taking so long 

Idk what y'all are on but I don't wanna live in a world where Virgo's Groove doesn't have a visual the singles only thing ain't working I fear 

Um, are we saying we don't a visual album just so we can get music videos faster?

 

Because I am all for Beyoncé continuing in her visual album pattern...at this point it's not only her signature but her trademark, and an important thing for her legacy, IMO. Having the chance to give expanded meaning to all your songs via a longform video is a great artistic opportunity and as we can see, she is ONLY going for artistic opportunities not easy marketing wins.

I've thought about this too, but then wouldn't the result be like 2-3 hours long?

Maybe though. Or maybe she's just condensing some tracks a bit?

 

I was also thinking that maybe she is holding on act i visuals until act ii are filmed too so she has a better understanding of how it's all turning out to be in case she needs to go back and edit/add something for continuity or to make her point...because once act i is out, she can't change it.

 

 

the way we went from

• BMS video coming at the same time as the single. 
• BMS video will come as a final push once it's close to #1.
• BMS video will come when it reaches #1 to stabilize it.
• All visuals, including BMS video, are coming with the album. 
• The visuals are coming a week after the album to get another week at #1. 
• The visuals are coming in August to meet the Grammy cutoff. 
• The visuals are coming in September for her birthday ().
• The visuals will come during first round Grammy voting.
• The visuals will come in November before the Christmas freeze.
• The visuals will come in December during final round of Grammy voting.
• The visuals will come January 1 to ring in the new year ().

LOL, extremely accurate.

 

It would be kinda iconic if she released them the Friday before Grammys night...if she loses AOTY it makes them look more foolish (bc I'm sure the visuals will make the album feel even more amazing) and if she wins it's like a celebration, a renewed moment for the album on top of the media coverage of its win.

I would assume she would condense things down some.  I think it would be a lot to put out two separate visual components, especially when I think the next chunk of music should be coming relatively soon.  (after the GRAMMYs, since that's what Parkwood said they're focusing on right now)

I guess it's possible to do something like every six months though, and put out a visual component for Rennie in February, and the second album again in July.  IDK

 

I'm also still team 2 albums with 1 visual component for 3 acts (what is a B7 & B8), although the info we have suggests otherwise (that journalist and amazon Italy)

Imagine working so hard on sth and then letting it rot in some streaming platform cause we all know thats whats gonna happen.

The AOTY debate is SO tired. At this point I hope she loses again and again. Love that for her. 

And we saw how cringe it was to release sth like Shining post Grammy night. The second hand embarrassment I felt

She wants to release them after winning AOTY to make a point

Ya that was a weird move they could have not released? But even in the context of famously losing AOTY, the lyrics kind of are about being happy for reasons other than monetary/success but because they're having twins...? Right? Some lyrics "all of this winning" feel tied to Grammys and the literally meaning of a win but..."We smilin' for a whole 'nother reason."

Imagine if we got visuals and performance all in one week...what would the Hive do!?

Sad truth: It's more likely for her to do nothing come Grammy night than this outcome. The Hive reality in 2023

Would you rather have a performance or the visuals for the grammys though? if only one.

MVs are absolutely tied to the tour.

For the tour, I hope she does multiple legs like she did for the MCSWT. It would make sense for her to do so if she releases Act II while on tour.
