ChrisB Posted July 25, 2022 Posted July 25, 2022 If it's a visual album, I don't think it will be released this Friday. Bey would lose many streams with that as Billboard wouldn't count Netflix streams and many people would only watch the film in full and then stream only favorites songs on spotify/AM. I think visuals will be released few weeks after album release.

Cbreezy Posted July 25, 2022 Posted July 25, 2022 With Bey Legion's tweets, it seems it's specifically for the US, Canada, and US. A quick check out Australia and New Zealand (the usual leak regions) show that the same-day thing isn't on offer. I think, if at all there's a leak, we're looking at Weds/Thursday. Hope she lucks out and avoids it.

That said, I do wonder whether they'll stagger the presumed visual piece. It makes the most sense day of album release, but what if it's dropped over the weekend or even next week? At this point and with the unpredictability we're dealing with, who knows.
Mr. Specialist Posted July 25, 2022 Posted July 25, 2022 The Kelis sample is true. The Neptunes are credited on “Energy”. The song’s credits get cut off on Apple Music / iTunes from being too long.
carameldelight Posted July 25, 2022 Posted July 25, 2022 Tracks 8-13 being original beats makes me happy. Seems like the album is a great mix of work!

ShouldersSideways Posted July 25, 2022 Posted July 25, 2022 Alien Superstar sounds like a classic on the title alone. It's giving David Bowie.
Bey Admired Posted July 25, 2022 Posted July 25, 2022 I really hope this happens I’m sure this rap has already been sampled though but I can’t remember from where.

Both Adele and Harry album was released local time. It make no sense to loose millions of stream because you don’t want anyone to listen to it before you. so 12 am NZ time its out in NZ?

I'm a bit out of the loop. Do we already know which Donna song she samples? I guess I Feel Love or Last Dance are the obvious picks but I kinda hope Bey and her producers dug a bit deeper. I am currently listening to Four Seasons of Love and if she samples a song from that album or Once Upon A Time I would just combust.

Which wasn't the case on scale. As I remember Billboard didn't count streams from a film and ST wasn't one film but 17 separate videos. If REN is on Netflix, Billboard won't count it. And as I said earlier it would affect Spotify/AM streams.

One of the Kaleidoscope singles or Milkshake make most sense to me Either way, Kelis better get her coins from this considering PHAD stole everything from her
Hivy Posted July 25, 2022 Posted July 25, 2022 Streets are saying she sampled this: https://youtu.be/Llu4JNTmT2c

And unfortunately she won’t get $$ since she’s not a credited writer and her contract that point was written terribly. Maybe Bey will cut a cute check though and send flowers the same way she did for Robin S

I'm just glad she's getting her flowers tbh (both metaphorically and possibly physically by Bey )

Chloe giving Kelis her flowers was so sweet, and she made a really important point as to how overlooked Kelis is.
