yea it's way too early to predict 350k imo let alone 400k

 

we need streaming stability! I'm hoping Amazon music continues being stable particularly to compensate for the fact that future and metro booming are smashing on Apple Music US - oh yea have apple combined the clean and explicit versions of the individual tracks yet?

 

also physicals not being sold out on her website and then having no physicals in store might be an issue. Plus physicals on other retailers' platforms (like Amazon) aren't shipping until the second tracking week atm. I'm personally hoping we see more digital sales this time round but we have to wait and see

Im still cackling at the fact that everyone including the Hive thought that Beyonce's gonna bomb for the first time in her country project…..only for her to slay like this I- 

 

I'm a casual Beyonce fan for the most part (tho I have been lurking more here since last yr) but this album is making me consider to apply for a Hive stan card  

The album was definitely called "Beyincé" until recently, that's too much stock for a limited edition

And that cover isn't selling like the standard would

Crazy how the standard cover is actually the one rare and hard to get

I need the superior standard cover up for sale, that's like a -50k in sales. She always finds a way to sabatoge. 
 

THIS!! I really hope we get that soon with ALL the tracks on it. 
 

 

does anyone know what happened to that target exclusive thing or did a stan make that up?

I really wanted the Uber tease to be a tour but I don't think she is touring this year and if she is, her going to Japan and Brazil hints to starting off in other continents first

The dream literally said tour time it's happening this year I believe.

Is it too late to change my prediction?

Omg...I 

I would be so full, I'm already full from the music but concerts is where I lose it completely, seeing Bey live is my personal way of touching heaven

Tour is gonna happen this year imo but I predict she'll start in places she hasn't toured in years like asia, NZ/Aus, latam and European countries she missed last time. Then she'll make her way to the rest of Europe and USA again (hoping act 3 drops before then low-key)

I'm thinking that too, she possibly changed it since it's pronounced the same as Beyonce and she has self-titled. She could've went with Giselle though.lol

415kmy previous was 404k

I want this shirt so bad but WHAT DO YOU MEAN 99 BRITISH POUNDS?

 

The explicit/clean album is still not linked on Apple so positioning is probably even higher

yea you can tell what things were done relatively "last minute"

The missing tracks on the "limited" physicals explaining their absence, the album cover explaining why there are currently no physicals for it yet, album name explaining the multiple beyince references

Also ya ya is the song where she explicitly shouts out act ii Cowboy carter and its the song missing on the vinyl

Changing her mind and not going for 'Beyincé' as the title is the best decision she has ever made.

Cowboy Carter is more neutral, it's not entirely eponymous and we already have self titled.

Cowboy Carter also plays better for a southern music infused record, it's cinematic, it's playful, it's it.

 

Once again I was wrong, Cowboy Carter is a great title.

yea this! I also have a theory that with flamenco being the physical bonus track they possibly thought: we might as well add it to streaming too since we're adding multiple songs that weren't initially included anyway

It should be interesting to see if the Tyrant intro in the vinyl references Cowboy Carter 

The last minute of Jolene remains one of, if not the best musical moment on the album. Convince me otherwise!

Beyoncé singing Caro Mio Ben like Maria Callas reincarnated is the climax of this album, it's the apex of her career as a vocalist.
