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.

I agree.  It's a very good last minute save. Cowboy Carter is 100% the right title once you've listened to the whole album. I was right, it's totally  a new alter ego like Sasha Fierce back then. Beyoncé has amazing musical instinct.

I had been hoping for 500k (but didn't want to write it lol) with the short physical windows, I hope she can still do 430k at least. But it depends on the longevity of the album on stream. Anything above 400k would be fantastic!

255K +150K = 400K 

American Requiem is the greatest album opener. Argue with ya mama.

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

The spine and the inside cover of the album also says "act ii: BEYINCE". It really was the original title, I fear.

Do you guys think the streams will be stable? Honestly it may be too experimental for the GP.

 

As usual, it will take a few listens for me to get into the album. 

 

RIIVERDANCE, TYRANT, SPAGHETTI are some that had caught my attention. This is real good album.

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

Someone with the CD on Twitter said that it says Cowboy Carter.

I think people forgot that it's easter weekend. Bey has already won with her day one numbers. The fact that the album is doing so well during a holiday weekend it's insane. I dont want it to just perform well one week and crash the following weeks, i want stable numbers more than first week big numbers.

I can't even imagine YA YA live. I'm not physically, emotionally, mentally, or spiritually ready

Not a Levi's commercial right before the Levii jeans YouTube video.

It makes sense she's bigger on Spotify in her homeland now, I read somewhere that Spotify outgrew AM in recent years.
