What next?

 

I hate ever-evolving albums. Kanye started such a horrible trend with TLOP. Nicki did it too when she added FEFE to Queen half a week after the album was already out.

Welcome to the streaming world. There's no stopping evolution and i dont see why artists cant correct things if they CAN now.

Did she really change Energy? I noticed no difference. She better keep those 'lalalalala' in the end.

It’s punishment. Bye Bye Milkshake lady

 

she should do meet and greets at her next tour. + set up a table at a mall or something and do an album signing next week

Listening to the album, it’s clear that Beyoncé had a vision and executed it to perfection, and this is only the first act of the project. At nearly every turn, RENAISSANCE surprises, excites, comforts, and commands the listener to get up and move. It’s the most fun hour of music you’ll get all year.

No more milkshakes for the bossy one 

Kelis played herself tbh.

I'm happy she changed both things. 

 

For once Bey is responding to a hater, because yes, that's what Kelis is. 

 

Anyway good, now people will go listen again for the difference. 

And then that woman will have another video playing the victim and having a meltdown and repeat. 

Thank gawd we can agree on that, I like some of Kelis's music BUT when I heard her talk in that clip I realized how much her talking voice annoyed me  since she's being petty at all... I had to let it out.

LFG!!!!! They should have released more physicals/vinyls

2OOK PURE

Now, that seems like a more realistic increase... although, I do somewhat expect her to do at least 300K pure or close to it.

I thought about it plus it'd be a nice to increase sales but they undershipped physicals. People can't find CDs in stores and there are no vinyls in stores. 

When it ends up doing 35OK 

 

Yeah that spaz thing was w/e but now this is pissing me off. Based on the video below, why the hell would they even credit this as an interpolation?? Lalala is such a generic thing and the notes in the two melodies are not the same, nor do they move up and down the scale in a similar manner?

 

Thank God I bought the album because if they had actually removed the "lalalas" from my Apple Music version like they did on Tidal, i would not be happy at all. If you haven't heard it yet, go listen to the last 15 seconds on Tidal and see how empty it sounds

I can't she was able to clear 200k pure. We could have done at least 300k with more physicals : CDs, vinyls in stores. That's fantastic.

 

Also did they decrease their streaming prediction? Their first one had her doing more. 

Hopefully Grace switches on her before Friday. Let's get to 400k.

Her streaming prediction definitely decreased. The album has been trending downwards in streams thus far.

 

It’s okay though…

 

Hopefully she’ll stabilise in the coming weeks and, with the release of potential music videos, the streams will increase again as more attention will be brought to the songs. 

 

200K pure. 
 

I feel as though BB will be #1 next week on the BB200 though, or close to it. He’s jumped to 105K again for next week and will increase the week after as he has more physicals dropping. 
 

 

Can’t help but think she could’ve easily crossed 400K if they had a variety of vinyls. And of course the CD is tragically understocked in stores. I hope they are better prepared for Act 2. Anyway, we move. This is a spectacular week for her and the beyhive

They should ship out vinyls and more CDs. She clearly has demand for physical product in stores. 200K pure is absolutely amazing.

 

I also think that the streaming numbers are being underestimated. 125k SEA doesn’t seem right considering it’s doing really well on Apple Music and decently on Spotify. 

Can someone find the prediction post of all hive members in the base? 
 

The Kelis situation is a shame tbh.
