I'm not...especially not this close to release date

Ok. I don’t have your will power. 
 

I remember some of you losing it with us because we were chatting about BMS in here  it’s going to be worse for yous with the album. 
 

I won’t be listening to l34ks either. Girl I took Friday off work especially and I’m gonna make damn sure it’s worth it.

This must be one of the first major albums in a long time to be released without a visual. 
 

The way she’s done a complete 180. From being THE visual artist to the complete opposite. I respect the desire to step out of her comfort zone.

Who is going to be brave and admit that they’re gonna listen to the album when it inevitably leaks

Definitely not. I want to hear this album in the best possible quality and form my own opinion before hearing what anyone else thinks. If the album leaks, I’ll probably log off until Friday (or say in BB thread). 

I can definitely wait a day or two for the official release. 
Unfortunately a Beyoncé leak tends to go more viral than other artists. People will run to post for likes and retweets  

if it doesn’t leak until Thursday, then you should definitely wait.

Anyone who says they won’t are lying. 

There's a 0% chance I'll be listening to any leaks. I'm so excited to listen to it properly on Friday. I've taken the day off work and I'm just going to bask in it, watch any visuals that drop and celebrate how well it's performing. I'm not tainting that a few days early because I can't control myself. I've waited six years, I can wait a few more days/hours.

*** OFFICIAL ANNOUNCEMENT ***
 

If it leaks, keep ALL albums discussion in the album thread. Keep this thread spoiler free
 

when the ones that  listen to the leaks (if it happens) get sued because they tracked their IPs

 

I don’t wanna listen to the leak tbh. I did well with not listening to BMS til it dropped.

 

I would love recorded performances posted to youtube like what Ari did for the positions era, it would definitely allow her more creative control and gives more opportunities to promote the album as opposed to waiting for the next award show to pop up. We’re probably getting a visual album in VR anyways because mother needs her coin 

I'll have to log off if it leaks. I still have some people on ignore from the BMS leak because they had to be first and wouldn't stop talking about it.

 

Some of you will crack. I hope it doesn’t leak though, it would be more fun being hype together.

That's exciting for me...I've always liked reading descriptions & which songs people are most scalped by before digging in

I couldn’t find BMS. I only heard the 30 second snippet then went to bed. Are we going anywhere else if ATRL goes down?

When the mods snitch on the members who listened to the BMS leak in exchange for new servers... aah, what a moment that will be

 

I already intend to not log on for at least a day after the album drops since this decrepit site can’t stay online enough for me to post how much I love the album. Would rather spend my time streaming all the tracks than refreshing trying to enter this hell hole

About performances, I agree with:

 

VMAs: definitely not what it was, but it's a platform all the same. Plus, if she uploads the video after, it benefits her streams. The show's relevance is almost inconsequential. If she does it, pretty sure it'll be something next level. Maybe something like Rihanna's four split up performances. Or a longform take on that kind of pre-filmed music video/live performance hybrid she did at the Oscars. 

 

TikTok Concert: have been screaming this for the longest and really think it's plausible. 

 

Apple Music Live Show: Much like Harry etc. Only thing I can see being a hindrance to this is her lingering affiliation with Tidal...which leads me to..

 

Something for ALL of the Streamers: would be great to see her throw everyone a bone. Maybe a Spotify audio performance, the Apple show above, and something for...Tidal. Everyone wins and above all so does she.

 

TV Special: just one. Something like Adele's.

 

Live at the BBC: Adele, Harry, Sam Smith have all had major ones.
