Hate to break it to u, but:

 

week 1 - Verizon ad + THE + 16 Carriages + act ii anouncement

 

week 2 - letting this sink in 

 

week 3 - Cecred release + Essence

 

week 4 - CR Fashion Book release

 

(Week 4 aint over yet).

 

I assume we might get new tea this week or next week.

She could at least announce the title of the album. I’ve heard radio and TV presenters refer to those album merely as “Act II” so many times at this point.

It’s really shoddy marketing. 

 

Why do a huge Verizon commercial if you’re not going to take advantage of it? Why would you not make the preorder immediately available after the commercial aired? Doesn’t really make any sense to me. A “preorder the album wherever you buy your music from midnight tonight” message at the end of the commercial would have probably done wonders. What a missed opportunity 
 

If she’s doing this because she’s afraid of a leak, it’s very counter-productive.  

Thank you!

 

You hit the nail on the head with the marketing part especially.

 

It's a word that flies over the heads of so many of the "Beyonce can do whatever she wants' members of the Hive.

 

Newsflash Beyonce is BEYONCE because of marketing and strategy (as well as of course her talent etc).

 

So the frustration about the current fumbling is totally justified. 

 

And I keep saying it and bookmark me, if Giselle debuts with 150k, the Base will be fuming and screaming about everything she should have done...now. Ironically.

Yep. Even the hive who act like they’re above it will be on here complaining come release week when those projections come in. The inability to hold Beyoncé accountable for anything will ultimately be her undoing. She can’t keep doing this to herself and expect to be selling out WW stadium tours into her 50’s, I’m sorry. It simply doesn’t work like that.

Insert "Where is the album (info)? We need the damn album (info)" video here 

We are literally getting act ii before the end of the month!! 

 

 

 

She’s 100% gonna debut with over 200k. Renaissance did 138k just from streaming alone and it’s safe to say act2 will top that. 

Still no album news? WTF 

 

Honestly, Cecred isn't promo and I view it as a completely separate thing. This era had every intention of being groundbreaking, I don't understand why they didn't want to maximize potential first week sales. A truly odd strategy. 

first week: 500K

Period. And honestly Beyonce is judged at a different level than everyone else. Rihanna debuted for years at #2 with 100k sales and no one saw it as disappointment BUT with Beyonce anything under 200k will seem like a failure optic wise. 

 

 

What is happening in this thread?

If she doesn’t do physical. I’ll be making the flop threads myself. She can’t go one era without torturing us 

 

you ever as a kid watch cartoons like "How does the coyote keep falling for the fake background and running into a brick wall?" 

come to find out Beyoncé does the same to us over and over with what looks like a promising era 

I just hope none of this is actually affecting yall's day lol. 

Is it confusing? Absolutely. But I've learned to just vibe. Makes life better. 

14 Songs

17 Videos

 

Still her most iconic album, Lem and Renny wishes they were Selft Titled aka That Girl.

700k for me 

it is confusing but I trust they have a plan.. no way her team/columbia will let her release an album with no physicals  maybe she'll do something different and announce everything one week before to create hype closer to the release date. I just don't see someone of her caliber making a dumb move like this 

They just wanna make sure that each post of Bey on insta has the "Beyonce has posted a new picture"-Tag, and I believe u have to wait a week or so to make sure it appears on peoples phones

500K first week. True tea. No sarcasm.

 

 

 

All ya’ll gagging when everyone goes from predicting downfall after Bey successfully launches the album

@ShouldersSideways whispered to me 1M now that she got the YTs back in her pocket.

 

 

70 million is coming 

talent surpassing #that

 

when there's no physical albums and Taylor's 3rd week ends up selling more than act 2 first week
