Space&Time Posted July 10, 2022 Posted July 10, 2022 Big Frieda is the gay Fat Man Scoop on Break My Soul

Billboard is far from perfect, but the Hot 100 is a better reflection of what’s currently popular compared to the UK Singles Chart. I’m also a defender of album bombs vs. the UK’s 3 songs from 1 album rule too. I disagree. Music charts will become increasingly less diverse without it. Historically charts were based of people discovering new music and making new purchases, not how many times someone repeatedly played a song at home. Now it's based off repetitive re-listens, playlisting and alglorithms. It's highly discriminatory against ballads, intense songs, songs of notable length etc. It's essentially like rewarding fast food for being fast, whilst making it harder for gourmet food to be seen. Half of the historic charts would vanish if repeated re-listens were driving the charts. Edited July 10, 2022 by Otter

Otter Posted July 10, 2022 Posted July 10, 2022 Album bombs are dumg AF too, you have top 10 songs which are there for one week and never to be heard of again, no awareness amongst the general GP. Let streams which are clearly just derived from album listening contribute towards the album charts. And the inverse of that too, albums with no streams outside of the singles shouldn't really be charting high on the album charts.
Otter Posted July 10, 2022 Posted July 10, 2022 I guess we have no choice but to have Savage Remix on the next tour, Bey actually has 2 proper verses so she can perform a solo version. I always found Feeling Myself performances pointless because there was just no meat to it. Savage however can be a real moment

Because I have noticed it is those songs that stay with me more in the long run. The songs she loses herself in the beats and rhythms of and gives us heavenly harmonies. I lowkey also want her eventual power-ballad (i'm thinking 8 minutes, Celine Its all coming back to me type song). And am sure it can find space within a "thrilling abundance" of music. I didn't know how much I needed this until you said it. I would self combust with a 5+ minutes long ballad

That's due to (another) stupid UK chart rule. Remixes require the label to specifically request the credit change, otherwise it's just the original that gets credited. That's why the majority of remixes don't get credited in the UK. For example, "Perfect Duet" was massive here and sold enough in the first week to go to #1 without any of the sales/streams from the original included. Yet the original was the one credited.

MrPiggyMoka Posted July 10, 2022 Posted July 10, 2022 But really what was the point of announcing the album 6 weeks before, if they are not gonna do anything in those weeks? I was thinking at least a video or a performance would come, but NOTHING?? I don't know, i just don't understand this from the business perspective. I miss seeing her perform tbh, i hope we at least get a performance, if we are not getting a video for this song
carameldelight Posted July 10, 2022 Posted July 10, 2022 Kind of nervous about first week sales now. If there’s no video or any promotion going into the album release. “The omg Beyoncé just dropped a surprise album” word of mouth factor is gone. IDK, I hope the momentum will still be there with all this silence.

Devin Posted July 10, 2022 Posted July 10, 2022 Gotta feeling she will reveal the tracklist on her site.
