Can she at least make a thank you post to those who preorder the album? 

 

"Morning Beyhives, thank you to one million of you who have pre-ordered Renaissance. I can't wait to share my new music with you. In the mean time, here's the snippet to my new single".

Why are the shipping cost so expensive on her website?

My guess is that she's making all of the albums and merch domestically to avoid any leaks.  She has more control if it's only one warehouse/factory 

Dreaming about Renaissance that's how done bad I am right now

Or both!! 2 of the best songs of her career. At least FYWB Queen. But then I would understand it not appearing : she has so much material and just from TG, I know BSG and Already are probably more of a shoe-in. 

Facts! I’m actually intrigued what she plans on adding to the setlist this go around. She has a handful of new material, other hits, and fan favorites she could perform.

Doesn’t change the merit of what gaga achieve especially during the moment in time she released that album

 

i don’t think gaga eras and Beyoncé are comparable. Very different careers and fan bases, I think they have successfully coexisted in the music industry thus far and will continue to do so

I wouldn’t compare them, they 2 successful artists with different styles and career paths. 
 

Only comparison I agree to is her being the only female artist to sing, put on a good show, be visually artistic, and have celeb appeal like Bey. 

Speaking of visuals. Renaissance visuals finna be CRAZY.

I hesitated to by a box. I wanted to see the reveal first. I had 4 in my “bag” but didn’t purchase. Now it’s sold out.  Due to FOMO I went ahead and bought box #1.

 

I hope we learn some Juicy details on Tuesday with the full Vogue cover story and  get the teaser no later than Wednesday. I’m still praying for a June 24th first single/video and a BET Awards performance that weekend.

she seems to be doing things differently this era

 

so i'm imagining she'll put more effort into each video instead of doing a visual album. imagine getting 5 or 6 amazing videos with the budget of 16 

She need to hurry up and drop the trailer and the preorder for the vinyls already 

She can drop the cover and announce the single Tuesday or whenever, but I need the trailer and Vinyls preorder now

The words in the street is she not doing a visual album this time. If true, I am fine with that since some of the visual in selftitle and lemonade didn’t have great replay value overtime. The bad thing if she do video for only certain songs only, I won’t get a video for all my faves. I doubt she not doing a visual album since 32 songs were showing up, unless it’s counting act 2. If so that is too much for even Beyoncé. 32 videos? Could you even imagine? If we are indeed getting two album, we are definitely not getting  a visual album.

I thought a bit about this and I feel like a perfect rollout could be:

 

Tuesday - new Infos come out due to the Vogue interview

Saturday/Sunday: Release of a short preview at the BETs - think of a short Clip (30sec) in the vain of Dua Lipas preview of Dont Start Now). The preview obviously includes the release date of the video and song

Friday 1st: Release of the lead single (approximately 1 month ahead of the album)

Thursday 7th: Release of IVP + use of another Album track as the instrumental for the commercial (or just using the instrumentals of the lead, but I prefer a new preview)

 

This should hold us over till july 29th.

I really can't see her abandoning the visual album. It's literally her thing and how her albums are formatted these days. 

 

Now, what I could see is a switch up. Something like: Netflix's first musical series. Tells a loose story as a collection of "episodes" but essentially is a sequenced set of music videos. The shortened versions of which can go on her YouTube. 1-2 initially (the "singles") and the rest later. Like Self Titled. 

 

The Act 1 and Act 2 thing works perfectly with Netflix's way of ordering some of their big shows. For instance, some of their shows have Season 2 Part 1 / Season 2 Part 2 format, which allows them to drop the videos in clusters and make "events" out of each drop.

If the BV shoot is any indication, it’s gonna be flashy and glam af!!!! 
 

I noticed in the shoot, there is no big hair Bey at all…I wonder if that was an intentional choice or if the slicked hair just fit better with all of the looks

Okay I can see that. Instead dropping 32 videos (16 at a time) she could do 6 to 8 short episodes were she combined multiple songs into an episode , like a musical like you said. Act2 could be the part 1 and Act 4 could second part for album 2 (B8). Also a documentary somewhere in between or at the end.

I like this. I will definitely meltdown if the first single/video ain’t here by the 1st.

This sounds great

 

as much as I want the single now, July 1 may be better than this week. And that's still 28 days before the album lol

I also just think she wants to give Chloe some room and time to shine at the BETs. I mean Chloe is in desperate need of some real exposure and a moment, lets be real here. Bey performing there would complete take away from everybody there. Thats why I think sending them a teaser might be a great Balance between giving room to Chloe and still focussing on her own rollout.

Yes, I was thinking about this too... plus let's be honest, a prerecorded performance uploaded on her youtube channel or her socials could make much more noise alone than an appearence at any award show nowadays so... she can have her moment anytime without overshadowing Chloe's

I love that shes consciously selling out (if you know what I mean) like the intention here is to make music that makes people of all demographics move feel excited happy and feel alive again and I think thats a sentiment most of these popgirls that go commercial fail to understand: the intention. Bey understands that she wants to make a commercial record for the purpose of making people happy by listening to bops and Im so ******* excited and god i love this woman sm!!!!

yes exactly this!

Love this rollout. It would be perfect.

I dont see her abandoning the visual album either. But maybe releasing every music video separately would be a good idea to ensure longevity instead of releasing a whole visual which wont end up on YT lol. 
 

i’d like that. Like an MV every month or so.

and teasing the second single or song / video days before the album drop to capitalize on the release. Maybe a big collab. Then release the MV with the album
