*****, 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).

 

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 

 

 

 

THE SONG IS SOOOOO AMAZING!!!!

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

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. 

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.

Long post incoming… 

 

Beyonce is a phenomenon. I’m in my 30’s and she’s the one, singular artist that can instantly transport me to my childhood and specific memories from that time; I vividly remember the summer The Writings On The Wall came out and being on our annual family vacation where my older female cousins were playing that album non stop. I can remember when No No No pt 2 came out and those same cousins played it over and over on our grandmas front stoop steps from a recorded tape that they waited for the radio to play that song. Beyonce is a part of so much of my growth as an adult. Her work ethic being a motivator to get me through college, it feels so silly to a 

attribute that to an entertainer, but it’s true. This film felt like a culmination of so much, especially for long time fans like myself. 

Maybe she was planning to release the visuals around this time of the year but got the possibility to do Renaissance: A Film by Beyoncé on theatres and that overtook them.

she clearly doesn’t love them enough to put her money hungry ambitions aside and release a damn music video like any normal artist

hmm the numerous low quality cash grabs, perfumes and 500$ necklaces this era tell a different story

But none of that is related to her solo discography. When it comes to something that would entirely put in question her ‘artistry’ because it only has her name attached to it she always gives her best. 

I'm hoping to catch the film tonight but I haven't booked yet because I'm not sure which cinema to go to.

 

Clips have appeared on my Tik Tok and it's intriguing to see the mixing dates / outfits approach to the film. It definitely makes sense since she gave us so many great looks and they deserve to be in the film as well as there being such a community surrounding the tour with each date being equally special. On the other hand I also love the consistency of an artist filming one night of the show only, it gives more of a live show feel to me.

why isn’t she giving her best by releasing these visuals then ? 

I don’t remember seeing the Banana leotard fit in the film 

I DON’T NEED THE VISUALS ANYMORE AFTER SEEING THE FILM!

This moment looks and sounds so planned/rehearsed for the film, NGL. They throw in these nuggets for the audience because if it's a matter-of-fact documentary with no "drama," it would have been boring.

Now that you mention that I also think the alien superstar sound issue was planned just for the film. It just appeared too smooth and she didn’t seem upset at all. And the way the song went out on the dj booth is fixing the entire system part. 

By Saturday evening this will be the film I've seen the most times in a cinema since The Iron Lady (six times) in 2011-12. ahh my ****ing faves

Can’t wait for that fanbase making a thread about MY HOUSE getting less than 1 million streams and taking that as a victory as if anyone cared about that.

She can do both. Meet in the middle, dance all night.

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” 

That sticky note came and went so fast, but I read that as this documentary/film is NOT the visuals. Or am I slightly delulu?
