It wasn't even meant to be a drag :rip: 

 

I really like Beyonce, have preordered the vinyl and am really excited about the release next week.  My only point was that there are ways to do samples that aren't direct copies of songs like a lot of people seemingly are afraid of happening.  I'm sure Beyonce's album is going to have a lot of smart sampling and I just thought Replay was a good example of this recently.

 

And IDK who told you Chromatica isn't a good album, as a LM it's one of my favorite Gaga albums.  Some people just value chart performance over quality I guess :cm: 

It's not you, it's the constant drags on the site about everything.  Like nothing has been enjoyable here outside of the base or this thread, so I think people are just on edge. 

 

I also like Chromatica

I had no idea there was a sample in Replay. My most played song from the album. So excited to see what Bey comes up with.

That’s what I’m saying! Like, we don’t need to reference Chromatica when we can simply reference Bey’s other work in which she has extensively sampled in a smart and subtle way :skull:

 

Again, I do not understand why Chromatica is a subject of discussion here. If Renaissance is anywhere near the quality of Chromatica, I will drag her myself and that’s a promise :cm:

I can totally understand that.  I can understand why my post was taken the way it was but it was honestly meant as a defense of Beyonce from all the posters that are hounding her for having so many samples.  Just showing there are ways to have samples that are creative and innovative.

 

Also, I never really considered BMS to be a Show Me Love sample, it just vaguely resembles the song and it's safer to give credit to avoid a Blurred Lines issue.  Who knows what the other songs will actually sound like, they might not even be samples.

I think there will be some interpolations, like the Soulja Boy one in Hold Up. I dont know why this is being brought up, Bey has always been VERY creative with her samples and, with her, they don't define the whole song at all

will never understand the criticism for samples/interpolations?

I want snippets before Friday but I think once that happens it's inevitable that the whole thing will l34k which I don't want.

Do you not think it’s going to leak? I thought most albums leak a few days before?

I feel like it doesn't happen much these days. I don't think Adele's album leaked if I remember correctly. Harry's did but that was an exception.

Adele’s did, but it leaked like a few hours before the NZ release. But albums don’t really leak like they used to anymore

Yeah and even if they do, nobody bothers to listen to leaks. It’s too much effort downloading the .zip, extracting it and importing it into iTunes. I can’t believe we used to do this back in the late 2000/early 2010s. :rip:

I am so sorry but it’s time to say that

 

Break My Soul is better than entire Chromatica thing 

 

that’s that on that

I’m sooooo excited for this now I’ve tapped back into my adoration for her

Acapella ver is so good? Big Freedia's sample kinda ruined the experience for me so that acapella hits right where it should for me despite being just the acapella :WAP: Does anyone have BMS without Big Freedia's sample though? :gaycat2:

I think we ALL agree that BMS is better than anything on Chromatica.

I've been holding off on claiming any tracks but I'll be different and claim Cozy. Haven't seen anyone claimed that track.  :jonny:

I mean it's the other Honey Dijon track, so safe to say it's a ******* banger

 

Also, Legion claimed it, and you know they know

I don’t like the song title “cozy” for some reason :mazen: Just doesn’t sound like it would be a very good song but obviously it will be as it’s Bey we’re talking about here :chick1:

I wonder if church girl will be slower considering the Clarke sister song they sampled???

I’m still trying to figure out how there’s no video for BMS. :irate:

Okay? You seem intent on derailing this thread for some reason :skull: My post really did hit a few nerves. 

 

Anyway, let’s get back to the unrivalled genius of Beyoncé shall we.
 

I’m so sad I am working when RENAISSANCE comes out (assuming it comes out midnight UK time). I’m hoping it comes out US time as that’s when I finish work :dancehall:

Both Bey and Gaga are genius in music making. The Replay sample is amazing. I mean, why are we have to continue to bring one of them down in order to make the other one look better? 

Bey’s album will be an amazing experience and I couldn’t be more happy about it since some people that worked on it, worked on Chromatica as well and it’s really an amazing album. 
 

Can’t wait for Friday.
