plus I'm pretty sure a choreographer leaked grown woman and standing on the sun's demos, since it had the audience track. 

I still remember it being leaked on a random Japanese website.  I still wonder if it was "leaked" intentionally.

Chris Grant creates the choreography. He had formation months before release to create the choreography for the video, he and JaQuel tried to get her to perform "Cherry" at the Super Bowl pre BEYONCE.  

also formation was part of the made in america/global citizen setlist

He isn't some random dancer, he's her main choreographer for over a decade and absolutely has access to the unreleased music she sends him. 
 

 

You must be dense. 
 

Having a song she was ready to premiere in 2015, actually 2 songs, is completely different than having a damn album for a tour, which both takes place over the course of the next 1-2.5 YEARS. Again, that's only if the 'unreleased music' in question pertains to the third actual album. I know it's hard for some of you to use basic critical thinking, but be f-cking for real, even if just for a few seconds.

and the interlude into drunk in love is the intro visuals for the fwt :duck:

I'm gonna be real for a second. There is a real chance that choreographer had actual music from act iii on his device. There is also a real chance he didn't. Neither side trying to outsmart the other knows more or less than the other. We'll just have to see what happens. 

 

Ultimately, though, B9 releasing this year would line up with the pattern she's been following this triiilogy era (new singles four months post-tour).

While B9 releasing next year would also line up with the pattern she's been following this triiilogy era, too (alternating albums and tours each calendar year).

 

Let's just wait and see, and bask in the CCT glow while it's fresh.

Who said the stolen driven had the entire album on it? It just said "some unreleased songs", which again could be very likely, especially since Bey loves to do one big performance per era

Let's just wait and see, and keep the conspiracies going. Its just so much fun!

Totally agree with the bolded part.

The only "visual" of CC era but the GP can't find it because it's titled "BEYWATCH" instead of "Beyoncé - BODYGUARD (BEYWATCH Edition)

That choreographer didn't have no d*mn Act III on that goofy a** hard drive/laptop. IDGAF what y'all say, Beyoncé just simply wouldn't give anybody that type of sh*t other than herself and MAYBE even Jay, and even though I don't think she would do that either. :deadbanana2:
 

This is the same Beyonce that only made one USB drive (or one copy I don't remember) that had aalll of Self-Titled on it. If she went through those lengths, she would not just give it to her Choreographer like that. The smartest thing would've been to keep it on herself given she's been working on this stuff for yearrsss.

 

The last thing a robber is gonna do is target Beyoncé's escalade. :deadbanana2:

One thing that is truly unfortunate:

Bey never got the chance to collaborate with Daftpunk.

 

Im currently listening to Discovery and Random Access Memories and to imagine what Beyonce and them couldve cooked up in the year 2025 or so :jonny5:

Just because they had to get into a fight and dissolve the band. Ugh, i hate it in here. That couldve turned out to be the album of the millenia

Where is it?

I kinda like the Grown Woman and Countdown alternate videos better than their originals.

I hate her. :bam:

 

Edit: I have it in my old iTunes Library on my Mac from a time before streaming came in and ruined literally everything. I'll find a way to send it to you when I have the time :)

We can't say there's a pattern of her releasing the first single x number of months after the tour ends, because we've only observed that sequence (tour > single) once. So, by definition, there are no patterns in this trilogy era except perhaps the 29th as a release date. There is maybe a loose pattern of dropping the lead single approximately 6 weeks before the album release date (5.5 vs 6.5 weeks). The most logical assumption is that the first single/s will come mid-April, with the album on May 29. That also lines up with the tour year, album year cycle. 

 

But let's wait and see.  
 

At the time, fans thought it seemed like Beyoncé had planned to release an earlier version of her self-titled album in Q1 2013. The rollout appeared to center around her Super Bowl halftime show, the Life Is But a Dream documentary, and "Grown Woman" as the lead single. However, it looked like the project was delayed, reworked. 

 

If that's true - what songs do you think were originally on the album? It seems to me it was a more upbeat, brighter, more pop sound. Perhaps with some carry over of the Fela Kuti inspiried tracks she developed during 4's development. 

 

In Jan 2013 she said this about the project: "There's a bit of D'Angelo, some 60s doo-***. And Aretha and Diana Ross"

 

And the original album sessions were primarily with Sia, Hit Boy, Timbaland and Pharrell 

 

- Grown Woman

- Standing on the Sun

- Cherry 

- Blow

- Wake Up

- God Made You Beautiful

- Rise Up

- Pretty Hurts

- Superpower

 

I think All About That Bass was a reject for this album too

I dont think she was gonna release the album on the Q1 2013, she was already giving snippets of Bow Down on Revel and I bet she took these pepsi and h&m to fund the album, videos productions and specially the tour (a reworked revel production), after all, in some life is but a dream q&a when they asked about whats next she said the liked the element of surprise.

Hmmm. I think that bit of LIBAD was filmed after the decision to move everything back.

 

Why would she heavily tease music and then not release it? We also know she was thinking about debuting some music at the Super Bowl, specifically Cherry. There was also a rumour that she was originally meant to arrive in a car or something... And rumours that the setlist changed pretty last minute (one of the reasons she looks and sounds pretty tired at the 2013 SB). The promotion was definitely building toward something in my view.
