simon Posted July 30, 2022 Share Posted July 30, 2022 The explicit and clean songs are still not merged on Apple Music so the songs can still go higher Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dylangaga Posted July 30, 2022 Share Posted July 30, 2022 Not a skip on this album!! This is probably my favorite album from Queen Bey! I was high and bopping in the car and this is a VIBE! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If you go the pop genre chart - the clean singles show toward the bottom. Once they merge (on the chart) - it will increase placement. It just takes time.

It's unfortunate cause Honey is fine but Pure is excellence. That being said, there's no AWFUL song on this album which is nice. They're all okay to excellent. Not everybody has that Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Comedor Posted July 30, 2022 Share Posted July 30, 2022 So after almost 24h with the album and several listens, here are my thoughts. 1. I would say this is NOT a house album, it's more disco than anything else. I was really hoping for more house songs such as Break My Soul (an absolute bop), but unfortunately there's none of that in the album. 2. It's an experimental and daring body of work, many songs here have part 1 then switch to part 2 with a totally different mood. Not that easy to digest, definitely needs a few listens. 3. Some career highlights with Alien Superstar and Church Girl. 4. First part of the album is amazing (tracks 1-7), then it dips (track 8-13), and picks up again (14-16). 5. Overall, I would give it a 6, with potential to go as high as 8 after more time with it (MVs, live performances, tour, etc). Glad to have her back. I can't wait for the tour and her next moves this era. I need them visuals. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

GrandeVersace Posted July 30, 2022 Share Posted July 30, 2022 My faves are Alien Superstar, Cozy and America but i think the most radio friendly is Cuff It. They might push it if Alien doesn't overshadow it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ditto. I understand Bey wanting us to engage with the listening process this era, but can we least get the BMS video? I know it would be serving multiple looks.
