yeah but that’s the whole problem her focus should be on music, not random luxury collections no one asked for  you are Beyoncé, a popstar, not the Kering Group.

 

sure make a tiffany’s ad here and there and wear their stuff on stage no big deal but all these random collections are just pointless (for us) and do nothing for her legacy, and seeing how many of her non-musical business endeavors don’t go far i doubt this does much for her wallet either (otherwise she wouldn’t throw this much at the wall to see what sticks)

 

no one will remember beyoncé the perfume and diamond necklace peddler… i don’t really care about her making money either, she’s a billionaire and doesn’t need more 

I don't see her making this perfume as a legacy grab, but mores for fun ("crafted and designed by Beyoncé") and perhaps to further branding that contributes to her name being synonymous with a form of excellence/quality. Just like the couture collection, which wasn't for sale.

 

Everything we think about it is an assumption at this point until we smell/know more about it, but this could be something she was working on before the visuals were even started.

 Her having not made a Bee 🐝 bottle so far is indeed surprising. That’ll be so cool.

 

Look at this ****

 

 

Imagine inside... l'eau de parfum Reine des Abeilles by Thierry Wasser and Beyoncé Knowles-Carter. I'd die.

it comes up to $191 at checkout…

 

literally double the price of my designer perfume per ounce. sorry girl you’re on your own with this one.

The perfume getting 5 months worth of preorders while her album barely get a month

By "lasting impact" I meant more in the future. In 50 years, no one really is going to know if a video came out at the time of release or not. But any fan who wants to go back and look at the visuals (assuming they are released by then lol) can, and they can either be rushed just to be put out, or something Beyoncé made sure was right to her standards.

I understood. It’s just that for me, the video has a huge impact if it’s appreciated along with the video and becomes a part of the soundtrack of people’s lives. The more you experience with your sense the better.

For exemple I don’t think Thriller or The Wall would be so remembered if they come at a time when people had already move on from the music itself. Just like her yellow dress and baseball bat will mean little if they came one year after Lemonade(ugh that combo song and video could have been sooo legendary). Or I don’t see why Find Your Way Back or Water (some of her best videos) would be vividly remembered or impactful unless they get semi-viral and people get to experience both the video and the music at the same time. But I think we already had that discussion.
 

Anyway the woman should just release two singles Heated and AS, that’s it. The music videos are an old dream.

Oh wow stunning. 

Great, yet another product for us to buy. Whoever said that her relationship with us is purely transactional now hit the nail on the head. Also, $160 for perfume? In this economy? She is so out of touch. Eat the rich indeed.

 

My waffles are here.

 

 

Let me stuff my sorrows since we are never getting those visuals.

 

The closest thing we will even get is the tour interludes.

That's absolutely true. As stunning as Black is King is, it does not even get the fraction of attention it deserved nor would have gotten if it was dropped immediately.

 

I think a difference is there is such a culture of love and adoration baked into Renaissance as an album, that I think there will indeed be a different outcome than The Gift and, even if it's not on the scale of ST or Lemonade.

She lied when she said "be careful because I just might comply".

Well...let’s wait if it’s a good perfume, the price is adequate. If it’s any less than that and has the same price as some high-end quality French perfumes then...still make money 💰 B!

this will be a wait and see for me miss girl. you know I didn’t forget the mess that was Renaissance pose 4, just flailing your arms around on that horse. I will NOT be fooled this time.

Let’s hope so. It’s such a stunning pop album and she treated it very poorly.

Maybe the videos will revive the interest for some weeks.

 I care much more about singles because their impact has the potential to last much longer...even more so in the streaming era.

The way everyone thought Pose 4 would be it. Oh! The album thread was so entertaining.

Not the sweatshop workers sneaking in a little snack time. 

"I Am Yours" is so classic... such a perfect show from beginning to end  (except the awful dark lighting on GMB)

 

But I'm so glad she has this type of show in her performance videography. Forever beating the "she needs 100 dancers, big production" allegations.

 

I would love to see a full on Broadway musical on Beyonce someday. 

I can’t wait for this perfume hopefully we get more details in the upcoming days

the Sweet Dreams medley 

When you re-watch Bey's concerts...do you guys always watch from beginning to end or specific songs/performances?

 

Most of the time...I do kinda skip around to my favorite songs/performances. But rewatching IAY in its entirety was so enjoyable...I forgot about a few things like the whole tap dancing segment between acts. They killed it.
