She's mentioned Johnny before and I'm pretty sure he's the relative that died when she was talking about having to sign albums and smile for fans in DC while being really sad. 

 

Butch died in February. So the album coming out a month later would make sense dedicated to him

In all seriousness, I 110% believe she's being fed this type of stuff by the people around her to the point she's become actually delusional about how well her music is doing. 
 

The note in the CC booklet just solidified that. I legit cackled reading it. Sure, it sparked some conversations when it came out but it does not have the impact to the extent she's imagining. And it will most certainly not happen if she just puts stuff out and abandons it. That's just not how it works. 

I wonder if her saying the album is no longer hers and belong to us is code for the era is over (not officially, however). If she's not planning to perform, there's not anything left besides the scheduled visuals. Hopefully a climax tour.
 

And every time she references the acts, it takes my mind back to her only addressing 2 album, but 3 projects. The way she's only addressed 3 projects once, but "AMERICAN REQUIEM" - "AMEN" - "I'M THAT GIRL" - "SUMMER RENAISSANCE" are so open-shut, is it finally time❓

 

Why would she confirm the existence and sound of CC in two years prior, but act III is such a surprise❓Are we finally vacating this trilogy❓

 

However and whenever we depart the trilogy, all the leaks, unprofessionalism and stealing money for vinyls aside, we can't say this journey hasn't been exciting. Executed better, this could've been another major industry shake up, but, still, no one is doing it the way she has and with the quality she's put out. Some artists are not lucky enough, talented enough, don't dream big enough or have the support of their label and team to pull off double concept albums, let alone 3 conceptual projects with layers of details, meanings and definitions. Artists usually start at Volume 1 and never complete the vision or one of the two is a major downgrade of some sort. 
 

I hope once she's concluded, she inspires so many artist, good or band, to take risk and create quality that stand the test of time. Not just for charts or monetary gains, but for the fulfillment of being an artist and showcasing artistic creativity and personal triumphs.

"Whomever it annoys" 

but the only people annoyed are the fans

 

So do we have to wait for another uncle to die to get act 3? Anyone have a full list of her parents' siblings? Ngl this Butch guy came totally out of nowhere for me

He died this year, so that's why she's including him. He wasn't the part of the concept from the beginning like Uncle Johnny was

This just takes me back to Nadia's instagram post when the album was announced 

 

'Coming soon'  

 

Poor woman, she really thought..

I doubt she has any power over this. She's most likely as clueless as we all are about when and whether this will see the light of day or not.

Oh and btw Renaissance Diva > Formation & OTR II Diva btw

 

I know it might be recency bias but I can care less, I loved the arrangement.

 

It also has that Run the World transition too hehe.

Ok but to be fair, she's probably in the dark about everything and is equally as annoyed (imagine all the edits she had to do for new videos and scrapped ideas)

Obviously this is a three-act album project. How else is she going to complete the back cover horse? 
 

Anyway, the thought process behind this era intrigues me because a tour similar to RWT doesn't make logical sense. Are the rumors true about a potential two-part visual experience? I mean, it feels like she has to do something bigger this era than just lyric videos and beencountry.com. If you think about it, she technically started off REN era with no single cover, all-black lyric vids but with CC we've gotten single covers and lyric video visualizers. I do think she's building up to something but the progression is very lackluster to say the least.

I dedicate these visuals to my Uncle Stan….

she should dedicate Act III to Uncle Biden and Uncle Trump
