cuteboyzay Posted February 16 Posted February 16 So how much do y’all think TH’E ended up selling!? One thing I hate and love about the Hive is y’all grown a$$es know how to change the subject QUICK cause y’all are not talking about it, as if we weren’t going feral yesterday. 2 1

After the back-and-forth with the predictors over Hiss’s sales I really have no idea. It seems like everyone is trying to avoid speculating this time. 1

Kristie Kuwa Posted February 16 Posted February 16 Another day where she gained almost 1mio new listeners on Spotify 2
luxurious Posted February 16 Posted February 16 Who would’ve thought that Beyoncé’s COUNTRY song would firstly go viral and secondly would be the last thing needed to kickstart a substantial growth in streams for her back catalogue? I know Rennie and RWT laid the foundation but it’s still kinda random to think about lol 3
FLAallday Posted February 16 Posted February 16 So this like 30 year old sw*ftie Karen I work with(who, mind you, I have had countless altercations with and do not get along with) comes up to me and goes “ummm did you hear the new Beyonce songs?” And then proceeds to show me that she downloaded on AM, goes on a tangent about how good the “album cover”(she was looking at the THE single cover) and then started talking about how crazy it is she has never won album of the year and said she thinks that will change now. im sharing bc 1.) act II is already bringing opposing sides together, by way of example of me and this ***** and 2.) that Jay rant definitely educated a lot of the GP on bey’s grammy injustices, which I can’t help but wonder has amplified, at least to a tiny degree, the attention and support she is receiving. Once the album drops I wonder how many think pieces will be published predicting it to be her first aoty win. 10

Once the album drops I wonder how many think pieces will be published predicting it to be her first aoty win. This is so interesting. Thanks for sharing. I kinda have never wanted her to win more, perhaps for the fact that if she's gonna get a "okay here it is, now you can stop talking about it" win, I'd love for it to be in a highly competitive year which it looks to be. I won't expect the win though, I've learnt better. (also no album yet but we know she knows how to make them). 4

They showed their asses again and again (this year again with SZAs snub), so I wouldnt expect anything from fake Hollywood

Triton Posted February 16 Posted February 16 She should just submit to AOTY. That’s it. One nomination, one win. No song or other album genre categories just AOTY so they don’t have a chance to give her an award elsewhere. 4

I mean don’t get me wrong, my expectations are to expect another injustice - but the conversation has become the biggest it’s ever been so I’m intrigued if it will be brought back up when act II is released for our consumption and dissection. This era starting off with such a bang only thickens the plot
Lose My Breath Posted February 16 Posted February 16 The dance has for sure been decided and is taking off. Crazy. 4

It's easy but looks complicated. So the locals are eating it up.
