Nvm, I got confused with this:

 

I think that's alluding to the film being shot over a year ago, not the photoshoot?

 

Anyway she didn't do the album cover as that was shot by Blair:

Either way this is interesting as if the visuals for act ii were only shot just over a year ago, that's more recent than I think any of us thought? Idk I always thought visuals for all 3 acts were done together but this suggests different. This timeline sounds like between the Renaissance release and the RWT started, she was using that time to film visuals for act ii. So maybe the visuals aren't connected?

Not that surprising seeing as she was shooting videos 2 weeks before "RENAISSANCE" for the visuals up to, I believe, August 2022. 

 

I'm so confused because I was reading a 4 part theory on "RENAISSANCE" visuals and the eaeter eggs INTENTIONALLY left by her and parkwood (and Travis). I know they confirmed, twice, the visuals would come out much later, it's just hard to understand why. Especially when confirmed when, supposedly, half of the visuals are shot months to year later. There was reports and tweets that ppl from Marvel movies production involved in the visuals, so naturally, I was inclined to see the fruits from that before a tour or new album. There's theories involving a world centered around a dollhouse, a year before "MY HOUSE". The theories that of Aliens taking over Echoville and mind controlling them, I NEED THOSE DAMN VISUALS 🤣🤣🤣❗️

 

I can see the album picking up directly after "SUMMER RENAISSANCE". As many tidbits are in the album that leads into the tour visuals perfectly, it's still majority personal and has a "grand scheme of life" after learning about Uncle Johnny. Going from that album into "16 CARRIAGES" continues to build upon the personal, life storytelling tone of the lyrics. I definitely don't see how this albums visuals will play a role in the Alien, disco, mind controll, city domination that has been laid by various hints, but we haven't heard the entirety of the second installment to judge. There could be a completely different film in the works, or scenes that wouldn't make since until songs were near finished- hopefully we'll know before the end of this year. I can't wait until 2028-9 for visuals to songs from 2022-4.

did this tweet flop because she's not verified?

Yes because I didn't even know it was her official account. 

This is the most vulnerable statement she (her team) ever wrote

Not really feeling the album cover tbh and I hate how almost half of her discography  have black album covers

No it's cause she NEVER tweets. And tbh people use Twitter but it's fillleddd with a bunch of bots now. More than likely the people that RTed and liked that were actual users. Since she's so inactive, bots are wayyyy less likely to engage with her content since she chooses not to use that platform. And for good reason. Twitter is trash. Same reason why Ariana deleted her account ages ago lol.

Maybe it's the minimalism in me, but I f*cking LOVE IT. My literal room is nothing but my bed, a tapestry and some cute furniture. But I'm more fond of figures/architecture and blank canvases vs. colorful/extravagant paintings or poppy album covers. But I see where you're coming from completelyyy!

and that's why the visuals will come with act iii, the story will be complete 

Ugh, that COVER and CAPTION  I know im late to the party, but mother mothered real hard!! I love it all!

 

But why has no one adressed the fact that we might get another album where each song transitions into the next like Rennie does?

I mean "where u can close ur eyes, start from the beginning and never stop" kinda gives that away

ACT III in 2026?

Rock is the chaos

country is the order

dance is the freedom

 

none of that makes sense. Just a bunch of words to get people in a tizzy. Wake up people 

Azealia Banks often makes some great points, wrapped up in a lot of nonsense and ****. She almost never hits the marks with her rants about Bey though. What a god damn mess.

She gave her opinion? Oh poor Azealia, can't stop paying attention to Bianca. 

I'm actually not of the opinion that she makes a lot of great points, she's just sick and mean and sometimes she can be "right" just like a broken clock.

Im still gagged at how flawless that description was.

It was personal, intentional, yet vulnerable, all while emphasizing Beys meticulous ways of creating. A+

No but realistically speaking, would you be here for Bey x Taylor on CC? Would that be a sure to be #1 hit? 

For me it's w firm no. It would be too distracting to the point of detracting and overshadowing the album as a whole. You know what them Lord's disciples be like. This era is already rich in narrative going in, even more so than Renaissance. Bey ain't doing traditional promo so I want her and her work to be centric to every conspiracy theory, dissection, clickbait, sensationalisation to be had come March 29th and beyond. I'm not sharing column inches or screen time with the other lady any more than necessary. 

 

I'm down for a nugget in between eras though

Thats because youre a stan lmao, she made amazing points through and through with this one. How on earth do you go from BLM to this white acceptance imagery?

Agreed, a Bruno/Chris Martin collab would be more.interesting and fitting tbh

Also, both of them can keep up with Bey if u know what I mean nnn

Soon we will have 26 (!) carriages.

Oh I do. I didn't have to touch on vocal dexterity cus we know Bey is considerate of her collaborators; see performance with Alicia Keys. It's the noise surrounding it that'll be insufferable. 

Gagged by everything. Especially the caption. 

 

The mini-marketer in me loves the fact that Bey commits to there being a "story" with every project (pretty much from B'Day onwards). What's even sweeter is that it's never a reach; she's pulling from her real experiences. 

 

Rennie easily could have JUST been her "back to uptempo bops, lyrically carefree, I'm Pop again girlies" album and kind of was. But the whole Uncle Johnny angle gave it a deeper purpose, a deeper meaning. All while tick-boxing the aforementioned surface aspects. 

 

Now, with CC, it's the CMAs drama while ultimately pulling off what essentially is a MPG genre-shapeshift (which in and of itself is actually pretty common). 

 

Her whole approach is very old school, qualitative, and smart because it automatically sets up her projects to have a more personal connection before even hearing it.

 

Knowing she always delivers with the music too just escalates things to new levels of excitement.

Do y'all think we're getting the alternative covers and animated shop promo on her socials this week too?

 

The whole specifying a "10-day countdown" feels like it also functioned as an "ok, we're kicking off the...promo" signal.

 

I see they're running ads on social for Shop Beyonce which is great, but there needs to be more direct verbiage from her page directing people to the pre-order. "She can do no wrong" Hive, pls don't shoot me lol. 

 

Also, about the tracklist, IIRC, the Rennie tracklist leaked and it "felt" like her team expedited posting it (same day?).

 

The features/samples were then guessed when Apple or someone put the redacted tracklist out on its preorder page and then Bey's team's final promo push was revealing the tracklist w/ the features the day before Rennie dropped. 

 

Wondering aloud if it'll be the same this time.

You are in Beyoncé's base now? How deep does your obsession run?
