I still like her music tho, I'm not saying this as a hater But she wrote Jumpin' Jumpin' by herself, credited the producer of the instrumental as a songwriter, and then had one other writer come in and contribute. She wrote Independent Women by herself, and then it was re-produced as a new version, the producers credited as songwriters in the process. She wrote Bootylicious with writing credits added by the producer and Stevie Knicks (sample). She wrote Formation's verses. She wrote the bridge to Crazy in Love. She wrote the bridge to Halo. and so on... So why should the Hive not defend her writing credits exactly? Especially when even in instances she does less than the above, producers and collaborators are saying how involved in the process she is. Looking through any Beyoncé writing credits list shows you that anyone who worked on it at all is present Herself. An assistant. Any producer who contributes even a small beat. EVERYONE involved in the sample used. Break My Soul's credits are inflated by adding people who had absoluteluy no involvement in the ingredients of it. NOTHING in the song features the work of Show Me Love's writers. At all. What it uses is an interpolation of the instrumental from the (hit) remix version of the song which was created by someone else (not the writers credited), but since in the industry remixers don't get writing credits, all the songwriters of the original song that didn't have the instrumental she interpolated are credited despite their songwriting work not being what was referenced.

BYoncé Posted July 22, 2022 Posted July 22, 2022 This is a really good post from the original ATRL that covers a lot of the credit criticism she has baseless received pre-lemonade era, so it doesn't even begin to touch how disingenuous people act over her sampling credits https://web.archive.org/web/20150716022327/http://atrl.net/forums/showthread.php?t=830863
Hivy Posted July 22, 2022 Posted July 22, 2022 Aht aht, lets talk about Renaissance. Banish the writing credits talk. GoD

I just believe that the credit system should be updated to identify who has the bigger influence while writing a song. Producers shouldn't be allowed full credits when just adding snares as you mention. But thats another discussion for another thread If you're that worried about the percentage splits, Just go to ASCAP Repertory and look at the percentages yourself. *shrugs*
getBusy Posted July 22, 2022 Posted July 22, 2022 so how much time do we think will pass between acts? do we envision act ii being released in 6 months? 9 months? a year?

I've been wondering that too. Depending if there are 2 or 3 acts. If it's 2 acts I could see it being 6 months. If there are 3 acts, I could see them being released 3-4 months apart. But who knows what she has up her sleeve.

QueenofCopyPaste Posted July 22, 2022 Posted July 22, 2022 help the shipping costs 39$ :( should I buy? :(
PaloSanto Posted July 22, 2022 Posted July 22, 2022 Its so close, after so many years, we are only one week away from a full solo studio album from THE Beyoncé My faith in this woman is unmatched. I literally cant see a scenario where the album isnt a collapse
PaloSanto Posted July 22, 2022 Posted July 22, 2022 Just now, G'Day said: I don’t see her releasing two solo albums in the same Grammy eligibility period, so Act II (if it exists) won’t come until after September 30 IMO Quite the opposite, I think she'll drop act 2 during the voting period to maximize the chances of act 1 winning
50thStateofMind Posted July 22, 2022 Posted July 22, 2022 why am I considering buying the vinyl when I don't have a record player
