Also, it's been a stunning day in London and I've spent the entire day reading Matriach in the garden. I had stalled at 210/400 but I've cleared 100 pages and this book is just so good, truly amazing to read about what it was like during the rise of DC and then solo Bey....

I can't see her dropping 3 singles before Act III but then again, I can.

Tina Turner being a regular at the place Ms. Tina worked really makes it so full circle.

why do people keep thinking Bey would randomly decide to move up her return to the public eye... to do this man's YouTube show? she's obviously going to execute her "comeback" at/around the Met. not by eating hot wings on camera

I was going to make a joke about reclaiming genres but I don't want to offend kingdom and teezy

Ya she's covered the topic before, but this project is literally about that topic. And those Elvis songs are from the latter part of his career and thus long after rock had been very established, and are especially interesting songs in terms of subtext.

That song you mentioned may have been first released by a Black singer four months earlier, but it was not a single until after Elvis' was, so it's not really the same as Big Mama Thornton getting the biggest hit of her career, and then a white guy taking the song and selling 20x more than her.

I'd be interested to see what she'd do with an In The Ghetto cover though.

Well I just love those songs and I'd like to hear her cover them. I don't really care about deeper meanings .

The more I think of it the more I want In the Ghetto. She'd sound so good and it's still as timely as ever

same, though dropping it after establishing it would be kinda weird, despite being pretty excessive.

watch none of the tracks have the letter "i" in it so she can avoid this completely, not do it but still not stop the pattern.

This talk about Brady resurfaced this week, and next month, let me guess? Shakira will be the topic involving Beyoncé.

I hope Brandy gets to at least sing with Ariana Grande on her tour...

Umbrellas (in Paris) need to make this month go by really fast! The girls are truly bored.

I believe Act III will be released in May, I just don't know which year.

At least we have a Vogue cover story to look forward to next week for all co-chairs.

The originator of the visual album format, and the preeminent visual artist, Met Gala co-chair Beyoncé Knowles-Carter decided to lead without visuals giving fans the opportunity to be limitless in their imagination. It is a chance again to be thinkers and not viewers.

Or just let Solange. It's unreal how he just gets off with all that. The abuse Beyonce got for fiction though.
