Fave unreleased/obscure songs from the era (ANY of these could've replaced career low point "Daddy" ): (1) Wrapped Around Me (w/ Missy Elliott and potentially Tweet on the backgrounds) - one of the final songs left on the cutting-room floor. Only exists in demo form sung by Cheri Dennis. Destiny's Child in either iteration would've also done a great job with this too. (2) My First Time - Pharrell. Just a sweet song for a lazy drive or a deep house clean. (3) Keep Giving Your Love To Me (4) Baby You're The Only Man (5) Sexy Lil Thug - Another Scott Storch creation... I'm surprised 50 didn't clear the remix for the publishing and writing money alone. (6) I Can't Take No More (this sounds like a Fighting Temptations bonus track to me) (7) What's It Gonna Be (8) Body Rock 5

Also, everything is easy about Chappell and carefree. With Bey, it seems like everything is deep and there is a thirst for creating meaningful content that is rooted in some historical background etc.. It's like this constant need to create sth profound, almost to prove that she's "more than ..". It's nice to have someone not take everything so seriously (Chappell) and just be instead of wanting to be, if that makes sense Edited June 24 by Kristie Kuwa 4
Burn Posted June 24 Posted June 24 I hope when the visuals come out they give us months worth of stuff to discuss to revitalise the Basé. 2

It's nice to have someone not take everything so seriously (Chappell) and just be instead of wanting to be, if that makes sense I also like her rawness. Compare her live performance at Coachella to Bey's RWT film. The latter is fabulously slick and polished but I do miss just seeing Bey go off on stage with live instruments cluttering up the background (like her AOL sessions or Glasto set) One of the reasons the Stevie Tribute is one of her best performances ever is because of those rougher edges Edited June 24 by alien superstore 1

Chappel is just starting out . In an era where "carefree" and "relatability" is celebrated just like "sexyness" "choreo heavy videos" were for Bey in her early days. I wouldn't put that against Bey when comparing her to Chappel . She's at a point where she been there done that so trying to create something meaningful is what gets her going this days... it's frustrating, annoying, but it is what it is. Who knows where Chappel will be in 20 years from now. Maybe doing political meaningful art that barely get streams 1

Its just the way it is - Bey is very meaningful and deep in her art, to the point of the art being consumed by that ambition. Its nice to have someone tackle these topic, however Its certainly not contributing to replayability. Its just the way it is 2

Ari29 Posted June 25 Posted June 25 Throughout all the negativity Beyonce still holds a place that most artist can only ever dream of…if she wanted to she can tap Antonoff, Dream , No ID, Mustard, Tay Keith, Stargate, Dr.Luke, etc for a hit. That's unique to her and maybe Rihanna, that's it. Cowboy Carter was not it. Most people that I know are casual fans and they were not feeling it at all. Despite buying floor seats for Renaissance there is no anticipation for a tour for this act II album. Hopefully she lays low, then releases act iii and it's actually good/replayable. Or else it's a downhill to irrelevancy

A lot of those casual fans did not like renaissance either because they thought it was gay and annoying but guess how that tour ended up. If bey announced a tour for this album she will outgross renaissance tour. Her ability to sell a tour is not tied to the album she releases..it is solely because everyone and their mama knows there is no better performer than beyonce. 1 1

It was an anecdote; not meant to be representative of all…but to act like there are not more people out there who share that sentiment is crazy. No offense to you. My friends and I went to Renaissance, twice in fact. When asked about potentially going to the show supporting this album the response was tepid. I gave her her praises and literally said she holds a unique position in music/entertainment. For you and the other person who quoted me to zero in on that one part of my post is wild. But I still stand by that, if act iii is as divisive as act II then she will be heading into irrelevancy.
