Ugh I'm so here for the live album next. I'm here for Renaissance to dominate yet another year  for me.

Such a special album in our lifetimes

[AM98GJ]

[Mr. Specialist]

Still on a high from seeing the film last night. It was everything I expected and more. Her best film to date. Definitely left feeling proud and empowered.

i mean she most likely ignores the visuals in the film for a more dramatic / surprise element but yeah they are SO scrapped, er should all hang it up 

When I saw the sticky note, I immediately thought the visuals didn’t turn out the way she envisioned and she scrapped. 
 

or she could be referring to the tour interludes. “Stepping into mothers mind”

So do we tack on the song at the end of Renaissance or what? What's the consensus? Good bookend to the album or unworthy?

I have added it to a separate playlist with Cuff It (Wetter Remix), The Queens Remix, AHAP Remix and Delresto. Renaissance is too perfect to add anything to it

Yea I thought this was about the visuals too. It’s clear she didn’t think the visuals were good enough to match the song and that’s understandable. This era is all about freedom and liberation and she probably just didn’t feel like she could easily capture that feeling in music videos 

[PrettyHurts]

I’m still so scalped at this film. The impeccable editjng, her being the greatest performer in pop history, the candid moments and stories, the behind the scenes segments. This is her best film by miles

If so, she still could release some standalone videos for fans. Maybe they do not stick up together but for sure she could edit some nice music video or two

yeah she was definitely unhappy with something but i just can’t wrap my head around how they could be SO awful there’s nothing savable in there…

 

there’s not even 10 minutes that could be recycled for a cute music video or two ? were they THAT uninteresting / bad ? 

 

how could they be so unsatisfying that even reshooting the whole thing and editing it for another year couldn’t save them… 

 

i think they were perfect and in usual post-ST Bey fashion a little too artsy/dark/experimental/uncommercial which would be great for us but not so much for the streamers, so after they told her NO it was most likely a kick to her self esteem & creative spirit (and her big ego ) so she just scrapped the whole thing… idk

 

RIP visuals, you were the mother i never had, the sister everybody would want, the friend everybody deserves

Yeah it's so bizarre to me as well that she would be so unhappy with it to scrap the entire thing because the booklet (which we know is from the movie) is by far the best visual representation she's ever done for an album. The fashions, the looks, the sets, the lightning are all stunning and create a marvelous ambiance for the music that's on the record.

My House made me go back to streaming Delresto a couple of times. It kinda slaps 

 

 

And who the hell described My House as similar to AHAP, it's not even close 

And then there’s the description of it being “A hard rappy/rocky and then a kind of Michael Jackson vibe” from someone who had the song recorded and could listen to it more than once. Like… how? 

 

It’s a bit weird because first half is a bit like Black Parade instrumentally with a chant delivery like the “suck on my balls” from Homecoming and there’s also the I Been On voice making an appearance. And then there’s the second half which is more ballroom-y but dark, and then she goes into MC mode and drops her own “If you can't love yourself, how in the hell you gonna love somebody else?” moment. And then there’s a choir moment. It’s too much to take into, and the production is deeply layered too.  It does feel like closure for the era.

I love how Bey has her own trademark style despite the fact she has explored so many genres in her career: the brass, danceable beat, electric energy, stacked harmonies etc.

[Bentendo]

The film was even better than I expected

 

i loved how the camera focused on screens showing the quick headshot montage from the ITG teaser just before AUIYM. time for her to DROP THE VISUALS

[satellites.™]

*****, not me waking up TO AN ANTHEM.

 

As soon as I heard the drums, I could just feel the stage shaking cause this is going to GO THE **** OFF LIVE!

 

And then it began and the beats changed, it elevated more and more, specifically in the section where she focusing on house.

 

This is ON THEME BABY, this is what I thought a lot more of RENA would sound like from the original descriptions.

 

She took you on a musical journey too, old Bey mixed with new Bey and future Bey all in one track.

 

This is what a legend makes, 23 year old Beyonce cannot and would not go here.

 

The repition of the house section, again, is not just a coincidence, notice a lot of Bey tracks lately have chants (specifically mantras).

 

[Tripthelight]

MY HOUSE is perfect. She’s literally telling everyone that doesn’t **** with her to move along. Perfect timing with all the discourse over those photos.  
 

Moments like this are such a great reminder of why I stan her. Her bold curiosity is probably one of her greatest assets. The fact that she continues to experiment so effortlessly with her voice and sound is incredible. 

 

Spoiler

RIP to the visuals

[Mitsouko]

The first half is giving The Taking Of Pelham One Two Three (1974) and I'm throwing ass

MTE like put aside the whole film aspect, just having the album photoshoot in video form alone would easily be her best visual ever 

 

so i really can’t see how she could possibly hate it so much that she had to scrap the entire thing ? it makes absolute no sense 

 

even the whole “she didn’t like her body looking fuller" but it’s not like she didn’t know how her body looked when she started filming… and lbr she wasn’t exactly slim in the BMS cliquebait  tease either but she was still fine with releasing it… the whole thing’s just all around insane 

 

pls just give us closure pls im begging, tell us the thing’s scrapped so we can move on and heal like damnit ***** this feels like someone breaking up with you and never telling you why

She clearly doesn’t hate them if she tried to sell them twice. Beyoncé wouldn’t try to sell anything she doesn’t believe in.
