Why does she work harder for Jay that she does for herself.

So our auntie fave won't release this year to give grandpa some shine?

Ehhh, it's his last hurrah. Why not.

I just wish we didn't even know about 3 acts, that raised our hopes so much.

CCT already having sons

The thought of gas prices being high and some person is out there paying to see a crackhead jump around

Tell me why I'm lowkey missing her birthday website era. That's how I know things are getting bad

jay doing more promo than his shortie did for the last 3 albums.

Let's just say he has a lot more ground to cover. Think about it: What does a Jay-Z single look like these days? First-week Jay-Z album sales? A full Jay-Z stadium tour?

He hasn't released a project since 2017 / 2021 (His surprise takeover of Jay Electronica's A Written Testimony).

If she's doing that, I hope we at least get a "My House" or something... Maybe she looks inwards instead and sends a bunch of bonus tracks from her catalog to streaming platforms (or removes geo-blocks on "Lay Up Under Me" / "Creole" etc.)? Hops on a new original track (Meg) / remix? Maybe "Put It In A Love Song" finally debuts on YouTube and the Hot 100? Maybe that Beyoncé track Missy Elliott has been holding onto since 2013 gets released? Something from the Lemonade sessions gets added to the 2019 re-release tracklist randomly one night?

We're probably getting nothing, but it would be nice for a combination of these things to occur.

is it too late for an abortion?

its creator tried to abort it but ended up dropping it in a church dumpster a month after giving birth, so it's never too late

I forgot to engage with it at the moment, but someone in here talked about considering that Cowboy Carter has heavy Rock influences and it is lowkey incorporated and played with on multiple songs. I don't know what it really means in terms of Act-iii, but yeah. I agree, CC is "country" most prominently as a 'world' - like a western, so even when we bend genres - the imagery is always rooted in country western films.

The other track on my mind was that I genuinely feel B is not kicking off act-iii because the cultural moment isn't there. B has said many times that she's not chasing chart success but cares about her cultural currency and the statements and reflections she makes as bodies of work. With how crazy the world has been lately, maybe she's waiting for or tweaking the moment she wants to actually strike.

B is also someone who always likes to have an important element of subverting expectations and the boxes shes put in - with so many predictions around act - iii, I wonder how she plans on pushing forward.

A COMBINATION of things?? Good luck with even getting one

Ryan's contributions to COWBOY CARTER:

I lowkey don't know how he qualified for AYTO. I thought the rule was 20% of contributions to the album. 4/27 songs isn't 20%. Subtract the interludes and it's still not 20%.

I wonder when was the last time hive that performatively liked that auntie perfume wore it.

cowboy carter co-writer ryan beatty released his country/americana album this week and it's very good. way better than his previous work. the beyonce effect strikes again.

i wonder which, if any songs from this album were submitted for CC. especially knowing miley used one of her submissions on her album too.

the opening track phantom is gorgeous:

i can definitely hear beyonce singing this one:

When her next post is the cover art to EIL 2.

i don't think stanning her as ever been more boring than this year. makes 2021 seem like a fun eventful year
