I need Bey to sing acapella. While other artist vocal peak be in their prime I feel like hers is now tbh. I like how deeper her tone is now since she had kids and got older.

Seeing the CCT lashings, yet everyone before was claiming it ate RWT up. What's the truth?

production was bigger and better at CCT, but the costumes and setlist were better at RWT. they both have their faults.

we didn't even want those the first time and copy pasting an entire segment for the third time would be incredibly lame

Ok @yonsé now you're just overdoing it.

imagine giving this legendary performance so early in your career and getting a standing ovation from your idol...

I can't believe other stans have the nerve to talk **** about her they can stay mad.

The stream debates when it comes to stan culture is so weird to me lmao. These artist having more streams than Beyonce does not make them more Legendary nor more talented than her. People have respect for Bey because of her talent. Everything else such as beauty comes with the talent. It's not her fault that other Artist they stan just have one thing that people stan them for.

I know Team Parkwood and her read their books from the 80s about limiting the product to make it appear to be more rare and thus create a longing for it, however its 2026 and things have drastically changed. Thats not how it works in music any longer, and shes pretty much an idiot if she believes that

Is it not working though? Are people not longing for it? Do they just want it on her YouTube in principle only but not because they'd like to watch it and now they can't?

I think it definitely works for the core fanbase but it limits her growth in terms of gaining new fans or keeping ones that were freshly interested. In fact, it also weakens the core fanbase as some has lost interest based on the perception that she is pushing exclusivity.

Forever a hard pill to swallow that she is capitalizing on the publishing rights of all her material and gatekeeping her image accreditation. I still think about the HD footage she teased us with for her Dubai performance. That footage looked crisp and ready for streaming.

Ya I get that for sure, but that marketing tactic would have always worked the same way. Keeping your product away from consumers only has an effect for those that are aware of it in the first place.

But I do agree it limits her growth. I became a huge Beyoncé fan in part because my interest coincided with the come-up of YouTube in 2006 and I began watching all her live performances and turning from fan to stan. That said, most of those videos still exist, and there is many more videos that are on YouTube now for people to get into. Though, yes, no live performances of COWBOY CARTER now.

Anyway, something about this is telling me this is a sign the new era is kicking into gear. Or maybe I'm being delusional. I hope it is added back, it's such a brilliant performance.

I just watched this with such a smile on my face. A standing ovation AND a double thumbs up.

I also love how Beyoncé sends a kiss to Tina but touches her cheek not her lips lol.

for what its worth, YA YA was live!

FWT was epic. It's a shame she didn't release it

Beyonce acts like a Niche Artist and goes too far with that. Like there is nothing wrong with being a popular musician especially someone with her talent. She deserves her success. I'm happy social media is around because I feel like Bey would let her legacy get erased if there wasn't. I swear Janet was a really huge popstar now I feel like her career has been erased. It's weird AF to me.

No it was lipped.

I like Spirit, but I think Find Your Way Back would have been a better single for the movie. It's catchier, would have done well on radio, and has a message close to the film plot. Also, the production and melodies are top tier.

Too many people without daddies to relate to this song. The same reason why the hive hates Daddy from DIL.

Now that Kelly Rowland has come out as a Jasmine Crocketter, I believe #she will post something on instagram on election day in support of Jasmine. She will be dragged to hell and back by all the white leftists and then the world will move on.

I was looking at some photos from Destiny's Child reunion from last year and the way Michelle in this pic is making me laugh for some reason

the hehe man once again being accused of child rape 2 days after that thread by that user

On the BeYTRL Discord(you are free to join lol), we were discussing how it's highly likely that she is working on her own streaming platform. Possibly a Parkwood+ app that has all things Beyonce that we can pay a monthly subscription to consume all her content exclusively on that app or streaming platform.

While this sounds great it's a theory and means indefinitely we don't know when or where all this lost official and HD footage will be broadcasted. Your thoughts on this theory?

I've been thinking about this too. I mean every greedy company tries to extort people into subscribing for a product. I think we'd all love to have HD footage of all her stuff, but I'm not sure how sustainable it would be unless, content rotates in and out to create hype and scarcity

Parkwood+?

sounds like beyoncé acting broke and joining patreon.

Considering major streaming services are struggling, I don't know if a Beyoncé only streaming service would work. Still haunted by Tidal.

it literally wouldn't work lol. no one is paying for that. and if they are, theyre paying, ripping the content from it, and then unsubscribing. she doesn't release things regularly enough to justify an entire platform.

she just needs a good licensing deal with a major studio and put all of parkwood's films on an existing streaming service.
