Those are tragic and uninspired. Hope none of them make it

I actually wouldn’t mind Meg being on the album that would be really cute, Bey would definitely push her to rap on a house track. I need Savage remix performed on tour or featured in a cute little mashup

We don't need an A-list collab unless their names are Rihanna or Adele. 

I really woke up 90% sure there would be a video cause it's been released exactly 2 weeks ago 

 

It just feels so weird to have new B without visuals now

We need a melodic hit mam! Give us something with actual catchy singable chorus, give us maybe a bit of autotune? A Calvin Harris moment?

Are you not listening to "Break My Soul"? How exactly is it not melodic? The chorus is insanely catchy and singable... Girl.

am i the only one in the minority that thinks an adele or rih collab would be hilarious bc bey would just eat them up on any track. rihs cute tone is not gonna save her once bey starts belting and giving us melismas

I was gonna say.

Did anyone that signed up for the texting thing on her website get a notification about BREAK MY SOUL being released or the album cover unveiling? 
 

I didn’t get any notification at all so I’m wondering what the point of that was

I'll look the other way on all but Nicki.. Let's not

Aside from a few exceptions im not interested in her collaborating with big artists just for the sake of it. And in terms if rappers definitely not Nicki or Eminem (in 2022) 

 

Ultimately I'd love to be surprised by the features but of the artists on my radar 

 

People with very natural chemistry with Bey:

-Chris Martin/Coldplay

-Frank Ocean

-James Blake

-Justin Timberland (IDC if hes a flop)

 

The onlu pop collab I have tingling for is Rosalia. I also think that Gaga could work with the new direction.

 

In terms of interesting producers/DJs features:

 

Floating Points 

Fred Again 

Nicolas Jar

Calvin Harris

Timothy Duval 

Jaquees Green

BMS is very minimally melodic, if I hear it from bad speakers the song sounds the same the whole way through and all the melody comes from Beys vocals.

Doja and Kacey are the only ones I want anywhere near this record

Nicki chemically blows all of them out the laboratory! After Jay-Z, Nicki collaborations objectively trump any of Bey's team-ups. Their dynamics are chameleonically mutual, and they musically feed off of each other in such a symbiotic way that it's straight up artistic clairvoyance, which no other artist could ever dream of doing (except Mr. C). 

What we're not going to do is disrespect Nicki, the second coming of Beyoncé, on this thread. Enough!

Completely agree, the anticipation is part of the experience. Don’t get me wrong, I’d love to have the video and I do think this week is time to release it as we are getting closer to album launch, but in all honesty I don’t want the era to be over too quickly. We are also getting act II so I believe and hope it will last long.

It’s very telling the tantrums & meltdowns over the lack of visuals,  has been caused by bey giving everything away too quickly. 
 

The hive hasn’t had to anticipate an era rollout in so long, they don’t know what to do with themselves 

 

I also hope the era last a year or two 

I'm really looking forward to the song she did with Ryan Tedder. I don't think - just because it was reported - that the album is only made out of country and dance songs, she never just did albums that had only 1-2 directions.

 

Also i'm excited for what she and Raphael Saadiq have in store. I know that he worked with Solange and also Amy Winehouse wanted to form a supergroup with him.

She disrespected herself to the max with that man of hers and the way she defended her brother. Shes a talented rapper but a shitty human being.

I love how this base is always like "I think xyz is going to happen because Bey would never do that".. 

How many times do I need to tell you that Bey has a kink for doing EXACTLY what we wouldnt expect her to do. This means:

She's likely only going to stick to 1-2 genres this time.

Frank/Bey on Pink & White alone >>>> 

 

But I agree Nicki is up there. But I list the others because they also perform a producing/writing role and so the nature of the collab is not necessarily a feature, but they've just been involved with her across  multiple eras in some shape or form

 

James Blake for example covering Otherside:

Or Chris Martin doing many improve performances with Bey and recently dedicating a performance to her & Jay at Coldplay's show last month.

 

What i mean to say is I can see these features happening more organically than a Nicki one because they actually seem to be closer bonded as people. JT goes without saying.

I think ur predictions of her collabing with a lot of US artists is wrong. I see her collabing with some interesting UK artists and maybe a few US artists here and there:

 

UK wise I see:
Chris Martin seems likely

Disclosure is possible and would fit

Maybe Jesse Ware

Maybe a MNEK production

Maybe Adele

 

US/Canada wise I see:
Kaytranada

Doechii as mentioned before

maybe Syd (?) based on that tweet
