    My mom passed away last week. I know I mentioned her wanting to hear a Beyonce rock album as she has anticipated it for years, and I'm so sad she didn't get to hear it before she passed (if that's wha

    I really hope we get it soon. My mom loves Beyonce, and her favorite genre is rock, she is SO excited. She just got diagnosed with terminal cancer, and I really hope she gets to hear the album while

when act iii has no visuals and the "clearly she's building up to something BIG" crowd needs to come up with something else

Forbes is late but also she should know by now to not advertise her numbers. Surely Yvette knew this was coming out and approved it. This is one thing they can keep silent about as it's nobody's business, just watch the numbers grow and enjoy it on the back of a yacht with her kids.

It's crazy how excited I was when the trilogy was announced given all the possibilities yet now it's just meh. The music/tour/promo pics are great yet nothing else besides that. Like now I'm not even excited about the visuals since the possibilities of them diminish as time goes on.

I feel like she needs to do a shake up or at least hire someone at Parkwood to maintain her legacy and keep her up to date… update old videos, revamp her website, change that ugly tour pic from her socials, maybe playlist songs that go viral (tour footage of the Tyrant performance was an easy acknowledgement), update certifications (it's only been done once in who knows how long), provide a library with past performances, especially the ones she owns. Like all the old stuff just make it accessible in good quality since you can control, it's done, why gate keep it?

Ugh ok I'm done, frustrating puta, love her yet there are times when we wish the fan/artist relationship could improve as opposed to it just being a financial transaction.

Beyonce is almost 30 full years in her career. Bish ass need to start updating her certifications fully and stop undercertifying ****.

yeah what's up with that ? why do we still have to look at that uncanny valley ass mess ? pretty sure that pic is singlehandedly scaring away the few remaining people who still click on her spotify page biblio

Cecred EASILY raised her profile. Her first TRUE profitable endeavour

I'm not sure Forbes included anything with Cecred, yet.

They're obviously coming as a big project of some sort at some point that will make sense when we get them. I'm certain we will all be blown away like we always are.

It's apparent she added stuff later, after the pressing was complete - I'm never mad about more music, but I will say, I prefer the new album imaging as opposed to the BEYINCE aesthetic

I mean, that's par for most celebrities - I'm not super fond of most of it, either. I did like some of the Amazon Rennie drops, though

Yeah, I hate it, too, but that is capitalism for you... not exclusive to Beyonce

I'll forever stay in the stage pits

Nah, lol, but this rhetoric is weird. Like are we supposed to hate Beyonce here? Should we make a separate base or something?

Hate is such a strong word. Do you really think I hate Beyoncé? Someone I've paid hundreds of dollars to see live? Someone I've supported/promoted/repped for free online for 10+ years? It's okay to criticize her, she can take it (if we are to take the BMS Queens Remix lyrics to heart). It's coming from a place of love always! I'm sure you have grievances after all these years Ms. LoseMyBreath, this is the place to share them.

"More audience interaction"

Im now convinced you guys have been to no beyonce concerts prior to renaissance. Formation tour she spends multiple songs grabbing peoples hands and kneeled right next to them. Mrs Carter Show the entire second stage she actually does a sing along with you for like 4 songs

Her best production was probably Revel if we are being honest.

suburban

it's not difficult to see how many more people she comes close to at Cowboy Carter vs. the teeny tiny Formation stage that is more comparable to stages people like Tate McRae use for their arena shows.

She spends most if not all her time in the center of that star away from everyone, inside the triangle, or up in the sky where she can't even look down. The entire floor was a bad spot to be in, RWT did it better because she could actually look down and see you. The stage is also much higher so even when she was directly in front of you she is 10 miles away. Formation tour I was up to her knees on the catwalk

I'm going to need to see your formation tour ticket receipt and a drug test giraffe

incorrect. I had a great time and phenomenal views from Club Ho-Down and from floor seats.

how is this a sign of "better production"? anyone behind the first two rows not being able to see her below the knees?

Formation stage is so overhyped by hag hive. it was her first stadium tour and it shows. it's so small and confined to the front of the stadium, the monolith is not very practical — essentially 1/3 of the size of CCT/RWT screen, and the only other special effect was her splashing dirty water around. it was her most elaborate production at that point but even OTR II has surpassed it in terms of stage production.

When Cecred has a valuation, I wouldn't be surprised if she gets to multimillionaire status.

I'm not exaggerating when I say FWT stage is reminiscent of what arena girls use these days. it set the tone for the next 10 years of female tours but it's nowhere near the best stage production.

yonce.jpeg 1000009853-1200x973.jpg

Formation stage is still great. Don't downplay it.

Can someone tell me the purpose of not releasing any visuals for 3 eras? I'm assuming it's going to be nothing again for act 3. Why not even 1 vid each era. If something went wrong with the Ren visuals. Why didn't she rectify it for the CC era?

If no visuals come, then there is no excuse for why she had none any of the eras. It's just boring and unnecessary. Don't even start me on the Ren movie being thrown in the vault.

Like is her last video really going to be Black Is King. Is she salty because that didn't pop off?

  • single(s) in april with no accompanying music video and pulled from radio after a month if it does well, completely ignored and left to fend for itself if it doesn't

  • a preorder that goes live a couple weeks too late

  • messy vinyl variants being announced that either never ship or aren't delivered as advertised

  • 1 big appearance, aka the MET, where she'll arrive late and hide as much from paparazzi as possible. we'll get a random insta collage with blue on a fake red carpet that she put up in her garage. we won't see her before nor after that.

  • album release week; some posters, a bunch of billboards and a completely useless website à la beenroc.com go live

  • an iii love you deep deep deep 🎸 post to talk about some obscure dead relative who was allegedly a big rock fan on album release day

  • complete silence until the next summer when she'll do a quick tour

there's your rollout suburban

I mean yea, this is a safe and sound bingo card, but she's also coming to end of a trilogy. It's likely she'll be MIA for like 5+ years after this, so it's also safe to hope and believe she'll do something that'll hit differently (for her pockets). Be it a 3 part series/visual on streaming or whatever else it is that'll change the game and earn her an award that she hasn't won yet. I am fully aware that my expectations are more like delusions, but I will continue to expect more than what's expected as a grand finale.

Did you go to the Formation tour? This is a side view and you can easily see everything with amazing production (additional screens were everywhere as well)

CCT HAD to make the main stage a giant tv just showing her exact location because no one on the floor was having a good view, kinda bad when you're watching a screen the entire time because she is unviewable 90% of the time, whereas the cube itself was only showing her to enhance the effects

RWT still has a better production level but Formation was anything but "impractical". There's a reason why she made merch about the demand Formation Tour had for a dvd YEARS after it ended, and a reason RWT got a theater release... CCT had tumbleweeds. It goes further down the list when you consider music production when Formation gave more (and better) live instrumentation than Cowboy Carter (an album that was BEGGING to have live arrangements)

  • ATRL Moderator

hate that pic. something abt it makes her look older and ai.

My thoughts on the tour debate…

I saw RWT from a side view in the seated portion of the stadium, and I felt like I had a nice view of the entire stage and screens. Of course Bey looked tiny, but I honestly like watching the screens, and getting the entire effect.

I was in Club Hoe Down for CCT, and while it was AMAZING to be that close to her, the dancers, and overall production, there was also a portion of the time my view was blocked and I had to watch the screens to really see anything. I was probably 6ft or so back from the guardrails. I did miss out on the overall design of the stage being that close up, but I don't know if that matters much.

I didn't see FWT in person, just lots of videos. The monolith looks cool af, but the actually dancing extension stage does look very tiny in hindsight. The disparity in how close she got to fans then (esp with MCWST) and CCT is pretty stark. Bey stood and danced right in from of me during Ya Ya (WAP) but she was elevated and far back (regardless of where I stood). When I see the videos of Bey performing Godtry she's right up in their faces.

She ate this look and part up BAD worship

No shade

When I see Bey serve c*nt like that…

IZO3.gif

CHILE **** table and every other talentless, stiff, vocally inept, and ugly pop star (male and female) because nobody serves looks, dancing, sex, stage command, and TALENT like mutha and idgaf how many albums or #1 singles you scam your way into you are a fraud and a flop in the grand scheme of things

I feel like this in a stadium would eat so bad and immediately be a crowd favorite

I love the screens during RWT and CCT, she's literally directing those live videos so meticulously that it's like watching a tour movie...

FWT she was closer to the few fans at the front and they had a great show, but videos from anywhere else in the stadium look lackluster, compared to the lighting and production details of RWT and CCT. the screen rotating like that is not helping either.

so what im hearing is, you did NOT attend the Formation tour and are basing this on youtube videos where camera quality was vastly different a decade ago... Now it all makes sense. As someone who sat in the rafters and also front row for the FWT, the view was fantastic wherever you were
