Yeah I'm really looking forward to this trilogy being wrapped up, it's been a mess from the start. And the music doesn't even make up for it, I don't use either albums 

 

This has never been a fully-formed idea. I think she's probably kicking herself that she announced this as a three-part project and is just trying to fulfill that in some way. 

 

I'm most looking forward to the tour at this point then we can move on to what we all really want, a new Destiny's Child album.

That's certainly an opinion.

People also need to chill a bit:

 

1) Her mom literally lost her home.

2) Shes a mother of 3 young kids who have to cope with the Trauma that they are witnessing + making sure they are secure themselves.

3) You don't know anything about Jay and Beys friends. Maybe they are deeply affected as well and Bey is helping out. Same goes to Parkwood employees, etc..

 

There are SO many variables and I find the nerve of a lot of Hive to make it about THEIR unfulfilled, self-absorbed wish to get new content quite disgusting.

I was one of THE Hype people beforehand and can clearly see how and why she chose to do what she did.

If you feel some type of way, log off and PLEASE mature. Your immaturity shows.

lol it very clearly is and was thoroughly planned. she just doesn't GAF about promoting or doing things the way you should to have traditional, current markers of success. but you're right in that it has been a messy or haphazard rollout for everything, she definitely PLANNED for things to go differently and the music to take off on its own and that only really happened with Cuff It

YA YA might have to be removed from the CC Tour set due to the sensitive lyrics with the LA fire. 

 

Imagine her doing an LA show and singing "Wiiiiiild fire burnt his house down"

Destiny's Child can't even do anything as Destiny's Child, what is it you want them to do?

That was used during Revel, a classic

 

I didn't even connect the dots. I need to get my Revel DVD out. I used to watch it non-stop. 

It could be worse ig. Imagine if she didn't announce the delay when she did and we spend all of today waiting for it.

And that's entirely marketing: the approach is to see this as a product of art rather than a product. However, it still is a product.

Sure it's still a product.

 

But we're now entering semantics when my point really isn't to say her music isn't also a product of her's, but that the marketing of her music is no longer LIKE that of a commercial product but an artistic one thus we're seeing very different approaches to how she markets her artistic products (music) and her commercial ones (haircare, perfumes, whiskey).

Please press play

"COWBOY CARTER" was thrown together by the premature release date. This clearly is the version she settle on putting out. Hell, even the limited version packaging is in way that lets you know it was thrown together to fulfill the printing date. 
 

The album was being tweaked after everything was set in stone, hence why songs were added at the last minute and the official version was sent to printing afterwards. Same with "RENAISSANCE" being set in stone, yet she was filming "BREAK MY SOUL" randomly in New York afterwards, or filming "VIRGOS GROOVE" a year later. The album didn't even have a track list until days before the digital release. 

You're pivoting here though. You said "nothing about this trilogy has even been finished" and then used COWBOY CARTER (out of a long list of things) as a receipt of your claim.

 

So is your point that COWBOY CARTER still needs to be finished, that she's yet to finish it?

 

If you are going to say things "clearly" occurred, I think we need more than just conjecture to say this.

 

Because with what evidence can you say COWBOY CARTER is an unfinished work? You can allege she "settled" on putting it out but there's nothing to back that up except that she changed things, which kind of suggests the opposite of "settling". If, perhaps, we knew that she wanted to change the album but couldn't because the original vinyl was already printed, that would be settling. From what we know, she didn't settle for anything, she made sure to change it as she pleased even if that meant incongruity with the physical and the digital copies.


Anyone who has created art knows an artist is rarely fully satisfied, and if they could, they would tweak it forever. If this means it's unfinished to you, okay, but if Jon Baptiste is to believed, AMERIICAN REQUIEM, a track that alongside the closer AMEN pulls it all together being the final track created for the album seems to suggest it was "finished" even if changed some things in the middle.

Please be so for real right now, she unleashed unfinished versions of an album for the vinyl and SCAMMED her fans by saying it included BONUS tracks (that she removed the wording for AFTER its release). Also remove Levi Jeans from your list because that is still on chapter 1, and won't be continued since no one cared

The reality is, however, that the version EVERYONE with a streaming account or access to a digital music store got at 12:00AM on the day of release was the finished version, thus making the album finished before the release date, not after.

 

You can go on and on about an unfinished vinyl but that doesn't really change this fact.
