could this be a way of saying the video is coming at midnight without saying so?

 

but then what would the point be of that?

but then...that's Beyoncé's way.

  • 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

They want some time on it, now I wanna flaunt it
Panty and a bra, we can get involved, boy
You keep playing with my heart, boy
I'm just as petty as you are

I’m screaming that she put this part on a song  Drake co-wrote with her mind you. Drake and Jay have had their funny style moments/tension  before and of Drake and Rih. I love Pettyonce. Theyre gonna be heated indeed :laugh:

 

It actually fits in perfect with Mine

on the topic of Heated referencing actual personal marital issues, I find it unlikely that she is in a way that is supposed to signal that she' still going through it, especially given the general approach to love on this album, and moreso her embodying that persona and alluding to feelings she's had perhaps, but not one's she's meaning to convey.

 

Just like she didn't quit her job, not all lyrics need to relate 100% to what she's experiencing, but can fill out the theme and certain feelings she may have in general.

Drake didn't write the entire song. :deadvision:

I'm aware. If you want to believe she's talking about Jay cheating on her again that's your prerogative.

because she doesn't do stuff in relation to charts.

Well, for one... she obviously does or wouldn't have released four BMS remixes, the instrumental, and the acapella version :rip: And there's nothing wrong with that.

 

But secondly, that was my entire point. Why bother releasing that at all? 

 

I'm not mad about it, but it seems... random.

I’ll take trolling over silence. Give us more @andrewmakaski @beyonce

well i guess you have a point, but it could be argued that if she really cared about the charts, those would have been released sooner, or even sooner in the tracking week. it could just be that she's taking it back to old-school days when singles also had remixes, and instrumental/acapella offerings and less about whether they made it chart or not.

 

as for this video, i don't think it relates to a desire for chart points as much as perhaps the others do. in general i think she's moreso unbothered by charts but willing to do certain things at certain times. an unpredictable queen.

 The only song on “Renaissance” that sounds oddly bloodless is “Heated,” which was written by Drake.

 

:mandown: I said this days ago

The baseline  of the end of Plastic off the Sofa into Virgos Groove sounds just like I Can’t Help It and Don’t stop till you get Enough. The Off the Wall vibes :heart2:

That transition alone should’ve been 2 minutes not 20 seconds

If Heated didn't have the last minute I wouldn't even be streaming it. Bey gave it life and we only listen to the entire song so we can reach the end LMAO

Anyone notice Beyonces intro songs are always the most out of place/different than the rest of the album? I wonder if that’s intentional

 

Im that Girl makes you think it’s a hip hop album. Pretty Hurts makes you think it’s a pop album. Pray you Catch Me makes you think it’s all ballads. Same with 1+1. Crazy in Love makes you think it’s mostly uptempo.

Not to much on heated it’s a nice vibe. Definitely for radio

its trending 

 

Pretty obvious, but nice to see the confirmation. I doubt there will be many overtly political messages in the visual (if it exists and whatever it is)

Spill, spill, spill. It's not an unlistenable song, by any means. It's one of my favorites on the record. But that outro absolutely gives the song its identity. Otherwise, it would've been completely drowned out and probably be the weakest on the album.

Ha album openers best to worst (standard/original releases only).

 

  1. Pray You Catch Me
  2. Crazy In Love
  3. 1+1
  4. If I Were A Boy
  5. I'M THAT GIRL
  6. Deja Vu
  7. Pretty Hurts

Did you just put Deja Vu at number 6???????????? You're setting yourself up to get dragged to the Pits of Titanomachy.

 

*bites tongue 

To me this is just a way of telling us “We’re not ready yet to release the visuals, take this crumb and wait while we finalize things” I like how cheeky they are with Cliquebait being in the title. They’re coming on the 20th we just gotta be patient:giraffe:

I'm not sure we should read into the lyrics that much and assume he's cheating again :giraffe:

I think fans need to realize by now that Beyoncé and Jay Z are playing mind games with both fans and media. They probably have been laughing since Lemonade and 4:44. I dont think people are ever going to admit it though. 

 

Beyoncé's attitude this era kinda makes it clear that she is not above playing games with the public. She just doesn't care anymore. Only her family is priority for her.

She’s really going to turn people off of the era. That’s the 10th BMS related video uploaded to YouTube. Omg, just release the actual thing 

It has over 200k views in a hour! She is doing fine lol

This. I’m thinking it’s gonna end up being August 20 (Saturday release is right up her alley) and everyone will be complaining until then. 
 

And then she’ll perform at the VMAs on August 28 :giraffe: 

Yeah, the 08:20 in the AHAP lyric video is pretty random but who knows :giraffe:
