Kristie Kuwa Posted July 29 Posted July 29 Not Haunted already being up to 200k daily streams and being the highest streamed song of BEYONCE. Sometimes quality does win 6
RedOne Posted July 29 Posted July 29 2 years later, no visuals and no RWT on streaming. But at least we have a new Cécred conditioner 2
Burn Posted July 29 Posted July 29 (edited) It's also the 1 year anniversary of DELRESTO (ECHOES) which was released on Rennie's 1st birthday So maybe we'll get a new song for CC's 1 year anniversary in March 2025 Edited July 29 by Burn

If you bought some a pair of Nikes online and they gave you Adidas, you wouldn't be on that bullshit talking about the online store was being vague You would be upset bc you didn't get what you paid for. Point. Blank. Period. This analogy doesn't work because no one opened COWBOY CARTER and got a Keri Hilson album. A more accurate analogy would be going to the Nike website, pre-ordering a final sale sneaker you've never seen before then getting angry at Nike because they changed the shoe a bit in the version they began selling in stores, despite the fact that you had never seen either version (in fact all you saw was the box) before you purchased. I do think that there is about 2 days of vinyl sales where fans might have assumed (and for good reason) that the track-list (which barely anyone understood anyway) would be what was on the vinyl, but that doesn't seem entirely like a "scam". It's poorly communicated but the hoopla about it seems excessive. It's messy and stupid, that's about it. I really think had she labelled it exactly as it was, it might have even sold more. We already were going to get the lore about how the album was supposed to come out years ago... I think it's actually precious and rare for Beyoncé ever to have shown us the process like she had by giving us the "first" version. All in all, I'm into it. Edited July 29 by swissman

RedOne Posted July 29 Posted July 29 The botched vinyl release could've been easily solved if she/Parkwood literally added one more sentence in her store saying that it's the 1st pressing of the vinyl with the original artwork, original tracklist (with some songs missing) and slightly different versions of some songs. That's it. I think they DELIBERATELY left it out, because they wanted to sell out the old stock and make the fans double dip when they eventually release the "Official Vinyl". The reason is entirely financial and writing think pieces trying to justify it won't change that fact. 6 1
Redporus Posted July 29 Posted July 29 (edited) Ya'll ready for today's topic? @Chris @Burn @Devin @Joaco95 @Negiiiii @ScorpiosGroove @kimberly @Kristie Kuwa Name the BEST and WORST Music Video on the album BEYONCE. (Please note we are not being objective today, it's all personal opinion and 7/11 is not considered) Edited July 29 by Redporus
Chris Posted July 29 Posted July 29 The best music video I would say is between Haunted, No Angel, or Blow. Worst is definitely XO. Sorry.
Chris Posted July 29 Posted July 29 Drunk in Love might be a little too simple but I still think it works imo. She looks fabulous in that video.
