Manifesting BMS at THEE very least. 

 

The press release timing is weird. 

 

Press releases do not drop the day BEFORE the album. Seems like it was a way to engage the media during the leak.

  • It was the best concert of my life, bar none. Idc!    It was extraordinary, it was ineffable.  I knew I loved it based on the videos but I... Hey I don't know.    Best moment

it says in the article "visual coming in a later date"

 

you are so anxious for visuals that you are even forgetting how to read

 

release your stress! 

Girl can you read? The user is correct. We are getting no visuals tonight. :rip:

it's called reading lol

 

did you even read the article that i posted?, did you read the quote that i posted? let me do that again for your comprehension 

 

"While the visuals are scheduled for a later date, the album comes with a robust menu of formats giving music fans and collectors plenty to choose"

 

and again, the "press release" from the same article 

 

"The originator of the visual album format, and the preeminent visual artist, decided to lead without visuals giving fans the opportunity to be limitless in their expansive listening journey.   It is a chance again to be listeners and not viewers, while taking in every gem of the pristine production".

 

or do you believe pink news more than business insider? look it up

Wtf is with your attitude. **** off. 

This feels like the worst possible outcome for bms as a single. Hopefully she’ll release a music video at some point? Whatever I’m over it

Did YOU read, beloved. I clearly wrote "on launch".

 

I found the press release and am the one who actually posted it. 

 

Visuals are for sure coming, the discourse here is about them not being available on launch fo the album.

the release of RENAISSANCE sans visuals is another culture-shifting move
 

:ahh::ahh:

Won't say this in the album thread or thread about no visuals, cuz I don't want to give OBHs validation:

That press release really pissed me off. It is complete confirmation that Parkwood/Bey are SOOOOOO cocky blowing smoke up their own ass. Them treating dropping an album without videos as something revolutionary? :rip: The person in here who said it is a REGRESSION spilled!

It just makes no damn sense. She BUILT the past 9 years of her career as a visual artist, and now trying to undo that and selling that regression as a "groundbreaking" move :bibliahh:


The Spotify/HDD numbers on Saturday will be a REAL humbling for Parkwood/Bey. Perched to see another 50-story spam on IG again like what happened after EIL :gayriahcat1:

The meltdowns. They could still be coming later this week :toofunny3:

Renaissance deserves at least an overall 90 score. I won't accept anything lower. I said what I said.

She also sounds a little paranoid when she goes in on how it was done as a dig at her...

Bey would only have meant it as a compliment to Kelis. It’s so sad that she’s taken it that way she has.

Yup. I feel like she attempts to tug at Bey even more than who her actual beef is with (Pharrell and Chad). She almost only mentions them at the tail end. Odd.

Its a bit deeper, it could be a quick read from Bey lol. Kelis was married to NAs during her popstar years and there was a time when she thought she was the next Beyonce due to her closeness with another big rapper and the image. When Kelis had her big break in 06 around the same time as Bday she threw plenty shade, Bossy is about Beyonce (full stop). She thought Bey's sound was ripping her off, but Bey is just talented af and experimental (as we now know) and can use her vocals to match it. 

If y’all don’t stfu and enjoy this new album lmao ? 

She’s literally levitating in one of the album photos and you’re telling me that’s not from a video? jfc
 

The math isn’t mathing with this rollout. Offering less than the bare minimum is a statement of sorts but it’s not groundbreaking.

She had to find a way to sabotage BMS hitting #1. This is a sick woman. I knew we would have to pay for the album not being a Tidal exclusive

I just finished listening to Renaissance for the first time and I'm deceased!

No visuals for the first listening experience is the move. 
 

In my opinion Lemonade read too much like a soundtrack because many of us experienced the music through the visual first. People have to fall in love and create memories with the music first. Beyoncé does so much visually and sonically I think it would’ve been too much to process. I think it’ll make sense later, that’s just me. 

Her/Parkwood having ZERO knowledge about how this new music markets works my GODDD

The people being mad at her for the lack of visuals. Like we live in a covid world still. We have monkeypox now added to the madness. She has to be on set with dancers, filming crews, make up/wardrobe staff etc... Like it's a lot! Making an album during covid is one thing, you can do it all from a distance now connected to your home studio but they cant do that with visuals so she must expose her entire family to covid and other crap to satisfy people over some visuals? Maybe she did find a way to film some videos or not but at the end of the day if she didn't, it's totally fine too. Notice even Ivy park campaigns are less over the top right now.

To me...its just saying that its not a visual album release like her last 2 studio albums were

 

not that there won't be any videos

 

This is what you marketing experts wanted anyway...for her to not put the videos out at once
