It's totally the opposite tone of the song itself, looks like some sort of jagged stop-motion horror movie and is completely aesthetically unsatisfying to watch. I thought Parkwood were becoming better at 'the game' when the visualisers for 16C and TXHM were actually looping clips from music video footage, as were the backgrounds of the lyric videos. But to release that IIMW visualiser...and that awful IIMW cover art...shows that they've given up on this era as much as the streaming audience has. It's the total bare minimum. Now, I don't actually mind the bare minimum when it comes to times like this. We got the bare minimum for Renaissance until she performed a private, phone-less concert in Dubai full of songs not even from her latest album. But she was working on physical recovery and on a maximalist multi-continent tour. This era is more suspicious. As far as we know, the star of the project isn't suffering some sort of health issue. And she's been way more visible since the release of CC than we give her credit for. Fan meet and greets at Cecred launch and in Japan for the CC launch. Doing video shoots in western saloons and waving to fans from the car to and from set. High profile Olympic game spots. Taking part in the viral II Hands II Heaven dance (which she never did with Cuff It). Essence Mag. CR Fashion Book. The viral clip of her looking demure in the crowd at the superbowl. Her Grammys appearance which went viral where she debuted the Cowboy Carter hat imagery. Listen, it's crumbs, it's not much, but she's kinda not been totally silent so far. I just wanna know what she's up to behind the scenes. This woman is a workaholic. She's up to something. I just wanna know what. *was 1 1
cuteboyzay Posted August 23, 2024 Posted August 23, 2024 I'm glad she didn't drag this era out imo. She literally made it known it was DONE. But tbh, what's the point of a trilogy when you barely even gonna acknowledge a third of it? Lmaooo!!! Nonetheless, it's her vision for the product. And the album is one of the most acclaimed in history, and that's her going into a whole different GENRE lmao. Like when you're that good at what you do, I'd come to understand it really doesn't matter how you feel about what people think about your work. It literally just speaks for itself. Regardless, she needs to start Act III already lmao! Literally just waiting for that. 2

Literally. Idek where her mind is at or what she's thinking. Like I'm wanting to assume she's just being lazy, but with the 400 other business ventures she's going for, that's not the case at all. She said her purpose for Act ll was for people to get the message and to give exposure to black country artists and the roots of where country started. But like if it was that important why not put more effort for the entire WORLD to see that!? This trilogy truly could've been such a Thriller moment for the new generation. Literally she was sitting on a musical/historic goldmine that we have NOT seen before. It's not even funny. But with her earth sign a** I know she's looking at the big picture, but like why not just have it all? The immense current success and longevity??? Like be sooo forreal rn!

Like be sooo forreal rn! !!! that also saddens me abt the way she handling the trilogy. bc shes one of the few black artist to get ppl eyes back on country, rock, blues, etc. and making it mainstream. the injury was one thing during renaissance but now …. + given cc is more country leaning im not expecting intense choreo or tv performance. but give us some kinda performance of the songs or at least go live and sing texas hold em. 1

Otherwise, I'd probably be a hater at this point Very that. If her discography and performances weren't so above and beyond whatever everyone else is doing I'd be a OBH 1
ScorpiosGroove Posted August 23, 2024 Posted August 23, 2024 the **** was even the point of this stupid trilogy other than squeezing a **** ton of money out of us while she sits at home 4

TizTiz Posted August 23, 2024 Posted August 23, 2024 3 hours ago, ScorpiosGroove said: the **** was even the point of this stupid trilogy other than squeezing a **** ton of money out of us while she sits at home Ask myself this everyday when the real trilogy was: RENAISSANCE (album) ECHOVILLE (theatrical release) RENAISSANCE WORLD TOUR And after the grand success of the trilogy, release the tour film on Netflix and the live album through Apple exclusively. This three album through a decade ordeal is pure bullsh*+, when RENI is miles ahead of CC as a complete, cohesive, concept album. People aren't even interested in what the visuals for CC could look like or a traditional tour for the album, nor are ppl willing to drag this album out for two years. What ever Act III is isn't even an exciting thought anymore. In a perfect world, we'd probably be just wrapping up RENI if she's played her cards right. At this point, she's just taking random old songs and ideas, clashing them with new songs and filming videos to pad out this 'trilogy'. Whatever life changing event TS Maddie was referring to is Bey releasing visuals- be it 3 film anthologies, a mini series detailing each album as they pertain EV or 60 music videos, it'll essentially just be visuals for the hive at that point. 4 1
QueenB Posted August 23, 2024 Posted August 23, 2024 am I the only one who thinks something else happened behind the scenes last night? TMZ is very rarely wrong and to have Kamala staff tweeting bees.. I fully believe she was expected to make an appearance. Just a theory that maybe Andrew refused to lift a finger (he's been tweeting nonstop about how evil the DNC is) and having your lead creative director pull out would definitely throw things off.. Something feels off, and the fact they waited until like 9pm to confirm she won't be there is odd. Or Yvette is truly terrible at her job (if TMZ posted the confirmation of her performing HOURS before, they shouldve IMMEDIATELY denied) 1
