This. I'm too lazy to go back to September or whenever it was, but I really wanna quote and drag all of them

"yeah that’s what i’ve heard too they’ll be released next sum-" *gunshot*

 

and there were multiple of them too 

 

when everyone complained about "she can’t redo the horrible BIK rollout" all i thought to myself was we’ll be lucky if it’s only a one year wait… now look at us

The visuals are coming after her second show in Chicago this weekend.

July 29th is going to be legendary.

[Mitsouko]

My coworker asked me recently what was the most I've ever paid for a single book, since she saw an antique bookstore nearby and it reminded her of me. I said I hadn't paid a lot for a book in a really long time, certainly not as much as anything in that store is going for, but the most was $90 USD for a rare edition from 1922.

 

Then it struck me that I paid over $100 USD for the Renaissance tour book in Stockholm. The Renaissance tour book is the most expensive book I, a lifelong book collector, have ever purchased. I chose not to amend my original answer and keep that information to myself because it's absolutely embarrassing and shameful.

 

So yes we can and should dragT Giraffe to hell and back. Where are the visuals, you menace? Read our signs. Read our lips. We say choke up there when you see us. Get flustered. Try and come up with something else to say every night. We won't let it go, we won't let you breathe.

 

 

Unless you're releasing on the 29th then we're good

Also, why do people still listen to these fake leakers (that have somehow amassed huge Twitter followings)? They've been wrong a dozen times and then delete their posts as if people don't keep receipts. "Beyonce is on her way to the Met Gala, 100% confirmed with my inside source, she's in the car and stuck in traffic."

B'Day era, I think.

That's what I recall as well. That video anthology and those BET/VMA performances sealed the deal.

“Encased in art” I-

 

Encased like my foot up your ass  ANYTHING but the visuals 

[ScorpiosGroove]

she said damn there’s your anniversary surprise now leave me alone 

 

Spoiler

this alone will make it two eggs on her face who tf does she think she is ? 

[ShouldersSideways]

Oh **** off omg. 160 ******* dollars. I told y'all we are just cash cows now

[Draper.]

Another money grab without visuals, new single, international dates or new music?????? 

[Lovett]

[Draper.]

She’s really out of touch  And she’s probably gifting it to her celebrity friends who are the only ones spending 160$ on this.

$100 for a stunning, limited and first edition, oversized photography book is really not that much, and is something you willingly paid for with no connection to visuals whatsoever.

 

The feeling of entitlement to Beyoncé's work and effort even if she's not ready, even if personal events caused the delay, even if that's just simply not something she wants to do is to put it bluntly: toxic.

 

Our support is not a direct investment in Beyoncé's career. She has not asked us to crowd source the visuals. She decides what to do with her profits. We decide if we want to buy an album, a book, a ticket, and as far as I know, we get that which we paid for.

 

I'm sure you are mostly joking in the above, but I find the allusions to violence rather disturbing. I'm also sure a lot of people will disagree with me, as they have before when I've cautioned "it's not really that big of a deal, just let her do Beyoncé" but I do think that side should be offered in a base that is in a constant state of complaint and self-imposed peril.

[ScorpiosGroove]

in before someone comes and tells us we should be grateful to live in a world where beyoncé the trendsetter is still selling perfumes

one more thing on a long list of stuff no one asked for and that no one will buy

The fact she didn’t even start rolling out the haircare line yet but she’s already leapfrogged to another side hustle Hive shakedown 

[bwhansen]

She really said "I'm not giving you visuals but I'll give you smells"  Ready for Act II to be a recipe book for Echoville food!
