This is what the singles run should have been:

 

1. TEXAS HOLD 'EM (Main Single) / 16 CARRIAGES (Sacrificial Lamb for the Arts)
2. BODYGUARD - On release day
3. YA YA - Summer smash hit (June)
4. LEVII'S JEANS - Tour announcement single
5. II MOST WANTED - Fall single for the drama queens and lesbians

So much wasted potential.  

As u know, Ms Kuwa dont play around and is the First to drag Ms Giselle, however realistically speaking, everyone was aware of Taylor's drop and her pull. To actively push a new song knowing shed swallow all media coverage was bound to be a losing game, so for them potentially slowly pushing Bodyguard now makes a lot of sense. I truly hope they actively do send Bodyguard to radios and use it in ads and such a bit more often, or else, well... back to square one aka me calling her all kinds of names

Yeah, that's why I thought watching the video. Lol. I need her to distribute the products in Europe, the shipping is too expensive. 

I literally stopped short from

 checking out. My cart was loaded and ready to go. Did you order any? 
 

I sent Cecred a cheeky DM.

The way Prince looked at him at 0:45  he knew damn well Bey should have been up there

 

 

Off topic but I love her look on the screen. A true beauty!

Her posting a personable video after I critiqued her yesterday about not doing that. Hello @beyonce I know you're watching! MAKE BODYGUARD A SINGLE! 

I don't love Bodyguard tbh. It's ok, very much easy to listen to.. her vocals kind of throw me off here and there tho, like those moans and groans sound a little too deep and hearty on an otherwise soft song. The belts sound good at the closing of the song, but it's those ascending riffs that lead and end the chorus that give me flashback's to the first time I took 10+ inches

No, I had my cart ready to go and move to the next step, saw the shipping and said hell no. 

 

It needs to be in stores in Europe or she finds a deal with a European transport company.

Parkwood was waiting for #her overexposure to kick in and it started  this weekend

I mean do see what you mean, but that's not quite the "roughness" that Tina herself considered as ugly before she accepted it as "one of the guys"

Like  I don't I don't particularly dislike that those riffs on Bodyguard, they just hit me sideways because it is a soft song overall. I could also stream it some more tho, maybe it'll grow on me.

I still laugh at her taking over Travis' song just to put her Easter eggs on the cover

That was my experience verbatim. Cecres sent me half a dozen emails about completing my order, I paid them in dust. I hope they're gathering sufficient empirical data to know independently shipping to Europe per customer is just not sustainable. I think it's in the pipeline that if the business continues to remain profitable. 

Wait just noticed Bodyguard re-entered US Spotify while II MOST WANTED remains out. 

Beyoncé obviously loves BODYGUARD and wants it to be the second single.

 

The CHURCH GIRL of the CC era!

I posted this on the last page to crickets

 

yall really so jaded about these visuals lol 

 

this is a big deal!

 

I'm probably being delulu but I kinda feel like Bodyguard might have the last laugh. It's sounds like such a breezy summer hit.

 

But who am I kidding, that would require at least a little bit of effort and promo that she would not do.

Wait this is true. I have some hope now.

Beyoncé doesn't get enough credit and praise for being an Executive Producer. Her albums are so seamless and includes different sounds within the same album while still telling the story. It is all bc of her. 

no you're so right. I think Jon Batiste and other collaborators over the years have hinted at this, like the "Hold Up" situation, but one of Beyoncé's greatest talents is the ability to take different, unique pieces and put them together to create a sonic experience like no one else. even within a song you can hear it, and for her albums,... she is an album artist after all.

Yes!

 

Tbh all the production roles are things she DOES NOT get enough credit for: Executive Production [music] Production, and Vocal Production.

 

I don't think people realize what a talent it is to be your own vocal producer, when some of the biggest names/best voices rely on vocal producers to help them push out the best vocal performance not just in skill but for how it will sound/feel on the finished record. There's so much thought that can go into it that we take for granted because we hear the final version and then think it must have always been/needed to sound that way.

I mean, no matter the genre, Beys records always sound uniquely Beyonce. We as fans can ALWAYS hear HER.

When u look at others like the white girl, it literally sounds like an Antonoff production. The fact that everyone agrees is so telling tbh

Give II Most Wanted a chance but by May 1 BODYGUARD better be sent to radio ms Gisselle
