No if anything it was Chromatica, although a house revival was already going on pre-Babylon as well

 

As usual Beyonce just hopped on a trend

very rich to say when someone needed to jump at ariana and blackpink for collabs :rip:

 

OT: Yes! Beyoncé definitely made ballroom and vogue voices popular and ACTUALLY used their voices. I don’t see how chromatica would be that considering that was barely listened to.

How about instead of finding a way to credit rich straight celebrities for everything we just admit that the current upswing in consumption of ballroom-influenced media was brought about by members of the community themselves? Just a thought :mandown:

No, but Beyonce is the biggest and most successful in the genre. And there’s class to what she did with Renaissance. Gaga and (probably) Ariana are just hoping on the trend which is FINE, but they won’t be adding to the house culture.

Nope. She's not even a true ally. Just using and making money out of gays.

Also, apart from the musical influences, yes, and? is specifically queer coded in a way none of Chromatica is. But people will never waste an opportunity to post a random album track to make their fave seem more relevant instead of a song that actually interpolated Vogue first.

well let’s just say one of the girls interpolated Vogue, another one remixed Vogue and the third one lazily copied Vogue (among other Madonna songs) :gaycat1:

Even drake was doing that type of music by the time Bey did it

 

The funny thing tho is yall talking about bringin this type of music but everybody doing it has underperformed. They keep trying but there's no hits. I don't think ariana will be the exception

This. Meanwhile it’s a running musical theme throughout all of Ren.

Nothing about Chromotica is ballroom. It sounds like any generic euro-dance album.
