Now what we're not gonna do is disrespect BMS.

 

THE wouldn't have its current success if it wasn't for BMS setting the foundation first.

Nahh, without the context of Renaissance, BMS was a familiar-sounding house song with Big Freedia who was already used for Formation.

 

BMS went number one when Renaissance was released for that reason + the remixes. TH'E stands on it's own as an ear worm, a HIT!, and it's a sound that people don't associate with her. Where it's placed on CC will only emphasize how good that song is.

fundamentally disagree but I do appreciate this perspective!

Act ii announcement/singles release was the bigger story than cc title.

Renaissance, but yes 

i kinda expected THE to explode and be everywhere during the first couple of days. but, you can't be everywhere if you don't do promo. however, THE is here to stay. it could replace CUFF IT as her longest-charting song in USA and is already topping charts all across the world and the album release could give it another push. it will also have amazing streaming numbers. it's not Single Ladies level of a hit, but it's gonna have some legs

Wow, what exhilarating promotion!

After witnessing JT and JLO’s rollout, it’s sad to say you really do become insufferable to the masses after a certain age if you’re everywhere and pushing your material in their faces. There are times that I think Beyoncé should do more (and I still think she could do more in certain aspects) but I do also wonder if because she’s not so  in your face for promo. It’s why she can still be seen as more likable than a chunk of her contemporaries. 

We just want her to use her social media pages to promote her music as much as she uses them to promote her outfits

these preorders could be much bigger but here we are 

Renaissance first day on Spotify was abt 44M? Do we think act ii will surpass that?

ugh i forgot their name but it was a beautiful article discussing her fashion for The Gift. mainly bc it spoke on each fit and piece she wore and how it correlated to Black culture and was perfect for the moment she wore it. im mad bc im still tryna find it.
