Why did she make that the cover?

 

I thought she wanted people to buy it. The cover is the main selling point for people to put in their homes.

Not the hoodie already being sold out

These are outtakes from the album booklet, she's most likely not using these wigs in the visuals.

I don't think she cares about the chart success or online discourse per se. I just don't think there's anything innovative to tap into for her with Lin Manuel (yuck) and she's already done the self-curated Lion King-inspired album. 

 

She never repeats herself. 

Beyoncé cares about chart success. She's just also deliberately built a brand that can withstand chart failure (which she's had to do a couple of times). 
 

She's probably stepping aside to give Blue a shot at the Best Original Song Oscar.

The album booklet is literally a photoshoot of the Nadia visuals

The Art Book is giving KUNTY NEWS- another thing that doesn't make sense, because the thing that makes them make sense hasn't been released, THE VISUALS. 
 

Its rather diabolically iconic, because I said this last November 2023 🤣❗️

 

Most of the shots will be stills from the actual visuals, featuring characters and sets. I won't buy, as I have no direct need for them, I just the visuals, but they will be plastered all over social media soon. And she more than likely will be making the same face for 50 shots!

It's like buying the How to Make Lemonade book when the film was never released

Is this book lowkey a confirmation that there won't be a CC tour? I feel like she'd have saved this material for a CC tour book if there was gonna be one.

And HTML book was everything❗️It featured more than just photos of her, but BTH shots, shots of the dancers and celebrities involved, the lyrics, the poems and everything tied back to the Louisiana home featured in the film. Everything made sense and the book created a full circle moment. 
 

CC Art Book is a glorified Christmas cash grab, probably because she doesn't have anything ready to surprise drop after the halftime show. I could see if she was dropping CC installment of the visuals or a CC string of stand alone concerts, someone even mentioned a documentary on CC licensed to Netflix, but I doubt. 

this will be a glorified album booklet

ooh this gives Tyrant

watch the book just be beencorny.com but in book form

 

random vaguely cowboy/texas related pics and awkward collages she found on her old tumblr 

Charging $74 for the book, and offering free shipping at $75+ is nasty work. I will be passing on this. It's just going to be Angie printing screenshots of beencountry.com

The $1 away from free shipping.  I hope her turkey was dry.

That Targaryen wig on the cover ages her.  This hair was perfect.

 

All I thought about watching Wicked were how many times Bey has referenced The Wiz. From that clip of her singing at 7 years old, Homecoming's intro, mysteriously teasing emerald on her website years, to Rennie representing the tinman with silver, bringing Diana Ross on a stage design inspired by the film she starred in, and her ending the tour in Kansas City. Ou my deluIu self was getting a headache.

You're right. Because if this was tied to the visuals being dropped at the halftime then it would be branded as a visuals art book. This isn't a sign that the visuals are coming, this is just CCs equivalent of the Im That Girl teaser

If that's the case, it's entirely on her. The first thing that threw people off was it not being as tightly curated as Renaissance and from then on rarely anyone revisited it. 

 

Streams did go up with the Bodyguard video, the Grammy nominations, the Ameriican Requiem lyrics post-election and the 16 Carriages trend on TikTok, which means people might have actually listened if she had done something about it earlier. 

She's toured on a flop before (OTR II)

 

I think this whole era is as simple as she was planning a residency at The Sphere and when they wouldn't let her rehearse there she scrapped the plans. 
 

the halftime show is probably salvaging some of those ideas and arrangements and reshaping them for a bigger pay check.

 

I'm not trying to be pessimistic but she makes it hard haha

No. Only the ones with brunette wigs, the platinum blonde looks were introduced this year. That's why that look it's nowhere to be seen on the Beyincé vinyl (only the Dolly wig, but she was redoing looks from the icons that appear on the album and it's not the same blonde) and any video clip. The ones that look taken from videos are all with brunette/dark blonde hairstyles.
