calling you in the middle of the night for a last minute gig only for it to be scrapped because she didn't like how she looked in it and for you to not even be able to actually talk about it without getting hit with a lawsuit

ironically this meme being a gif of someone that successfully appeared in a publicly released Beyoncé visual album

oh Shygirl, Barbie Ferreira, Megan Thee Stallion do not make that face

November- gta 6 eclipsing every media in existence

I really hope the creators formally reached out and she signed the permission slip to be on one of the most iconic playlist syncs in history. So many people have found songs from the previous iterations of GTA. "America Has A Problem" (Miami Bass) is the perfect needle drop. NGL, this opportunity is up there with her perennial slot on the President Obama music lists. The right person reaches out (Channing Tatum) and we get "I'm That Girl" in Blink Twice, "Bootylicious" in Turning Red, and "Say My Name" for the Candyman trailer. The wrong person or just a feeler? "Hold Up" doesn't get approved in time (after a feeler was sent) to soundtrack the iconic bat/car scene in Lovecraft Country. I hate that one has to reach out directly to her AND pray to an orisha / send a smoke signal... but c'est la vie.

Partition would end LIVES on GTA6

So in less than 2 weeks we're getting a 20 year anniversary re-release of BDay which includes new material (by way of Morning Dew) and seemingly features re-recordings and remixes of each song on the original tracklist, including the long-rumoured BeyGa collab in the form of a 'Get Me Bodied' re-recording... and there's literally no updates, other leaks, news, insider gossip, pre-orders, or official announcements?

Bey is the only artist who can release actual press release announcements about a new project and still leave me feeling confused and detached. I really hope this is worth it.

because none of this is happening

I guess on that note, here's who I think could be cool on each of the track remixes (assuming the Gaga one is real and sets the tone for the rest of the anniversary package).

Note: I'm leaning into pipe dream fan service, because what the hell else would this whole project be about if not pleasing her fans? She's opened the project with a release of Donk, which we've been asking for for years, and seems to be folding in the oft-requested Telephone Part II thing with a Gaga remix of Get Me Bodied. All signs lead to the idea that she's actually catering to us with this anniversary package...

B'DAY20:

Deja Vu feat Raye

Bey has worked with Raye several times before (Bigger, Riiverdance) and clearly respects and vouches for her. Raye has a big big voice, well suited to brass bands and big production. I think this could work.]

Proof of Concept: Where is my husband?

Get Me Bodied feat Lady Gaga

I'm still struggling to picture this track, or understand how it'll work. While Freakum Dress is this album's primary gay anthem (in my mind, anyway), Get Me Bodied operates in a similar space. Maybe adding a little Renaissance seasoning to the track for this remix and folding Gaga into the mix will be a nice way for Bey to release a track more catered to the group of her fans who loved Renaissance down but who didn't saddle-up for the Rodeo.

Proof of Concept: G.U.Y. x HEATED

Suga Mama feat Rihanna

Idk if this is even feasible, but the Cuff With Me fan remix is so fire and I think this could work...

Rihanna and Beyonce are two of the richest mothers in the world, and they could be convincingly sultry on a re-do of a track like Suga Mama.

Upgrade U feat Jay-Z and Doechii

Yeah not gonna lie this was my least inspired pull. I like Doechii and I think she's really talented, sure, but this track feels so tied to Bey and Jay that I'm not sure I can even picture someone else hopping on a remix? If Doechii is involved, it would be a nice way to honour her writing the best unreleased rap verse on a Beyonce song of all time with AHAP.

Proof of Concept: AMERICA HAS A PROBLEM

Ring the Alarm feat Slayyyter

Slayyyter has already spoken out about her love of B'Day this year, and self identifies as Hive. As one of culture's hottest Bey Daughters, and a pioneer of today's pop-rock landscape, Ring the Alarm is very well suited to a Slayyyter feature.

Proof of Concept: CRANK

Kitty Kat feat Ariana Grande and Doja Cat

This feels like an actual no brainer. Can you imagine the gaggery!? Make the track four minutes long and let Ari and Doja purr across the track, I beg of you!

Proof of Concept: Motive x Promiscuous Girl

Freakum Dress feat Meg thee Stallion

Again, this kinda feels like a no brainer? Meg and Bey are gorgeous together, and I think Freakum Dress is crying out for a truly cool feature. Meg could offer this, and their live performance on the Act III tour would make all the teasing during RWT and CCT worth it.

Proof of Concept: Ego x Lover Girl

Green Light feat Janelle Monae

When I think of Janelle Monae, I think about her in the Make Me Feel video, or in the Electric Lady video, which run in parrallel to the sounds and aesthetics of Green Light. Monae might not be able to vocally carry this track in the way that Bey can, but I think she'd fit quite well here.

Proof of Concept: Q.U.E.E.N.

Irreplaceable feat Olivia Dean

This also feels like quite a cool idea? Olivia is having a huge moment, and has built a career on gorgeous easy-listening. Irreplaceable would suit her voice nicely, and this collaboration feels like a guaranteed Radio hit.

Proof of Concept: Be My Own Boyfriend

Resentment feat SZA

SZA has such a gorgeous, husky voice that would really lend itself to Resentment. It's kinda the same key as Kill Bill, too, so I feel like I can imagine this really well?

Proof of Concept: Kill Bill (Acoustic)

Check On It feat Zara Larsson

Again, this makes sense to me. Zara is HIVE to the degree where I can't imagine she hasn't been on this forum before. She specialises in fun, catchy pop. And while Bey hates the fluffiness of Check on It, Zara's campy persona and amazing vocals would really suit this track. I can't really imagine their voices blending together, but I would have said the same about Miley or Post before listening to Cowboy Carter, so it could work!

Proof of Concept: Midnight Sun (Muni Long Remix)

What's Rihanna going to do on a Suga Mama remix? Play the guitar? Hit the triangle? Because surely you don't expect her to SING on that song

Thing is, even though she's been silent we keep pretending that she's stingy, when really she's just randomly released a fan favourite unreleased track as a single as - and I quote - "a direct nod to her loyal BeyHive to commemorate the upcoming epic celebration of B'Day".

That's HER words, not ours. An epic celebration of B'Day.

"The song will appear on an upcoming 20th anniversary reissue of B'Day, arriving September 4, 2026, the 20th anniversary of the original LP. No other details about the reissue were revealed."

I know we've all been beaten into pessimism, but the fact is we have been told directly from Parkwood that a re-issue of B'Day is on the way with at least one bonus track, and that the re-issue will count as an 'epic celebration' of the record.

And then along those lines, we had the fairly verifiable leaked registration of a Get Me Bodied feat. Lady Gaga remix.

Sure, things might get scrapped last minute, but as far as the leaks and clues go, we're getting a re-release with remixes.

And this is why I said listen to the Proof of Concepts! Her vocals in that Cuff It remix were strong. Nothing a bit of autotune and studio magic can't fix up!

In the past two months we have been given FOUR new versions of an unreleased fan favourite song on streaming, with visualisers, unseen footage and the confirmation of a major re-issue for BDay that drops in less than 2 weeks! She's actually giving us stuff right now lmao!

Love how randos on twitter are magically experts and were present during the filming of the visuals so they know what is happening. First she scrapped them cause she was fat, then it was her injury, then it didn't look good, now it's actually a three part marvel movie that's set to release. Like i'm over it idc anymore

A completely new two hour set live-streamed in full hd. A perfect dream!

she would never allow that

there is a reason why she choose not to stream made in america for rock in rio (mind you rir had WORSE cameras)

I took a break from listening since Tyla was able to occupy my time for a little bit and then boom Renny and CC both sound new and delicious after a re-listen. And just like that, I love her again, the messiah of music etc

You will NOT try to sell those GRAINY "Im Kissing You" leftover visualizer from 2006 as sth to be happy about as a fan. Thats borderline insulting to me.

This is a billionaire acting like shes on a budget. I will never be OK with that bs.

With the greatest respect, I'm not trying to 'sell' anything to you.

I'm stating facts, which is that she has been releasing things in the past 8 weeks. Whether you like those things or not is your prerogative!

doubt it will happen but this is a cute concept.

Tbh the way she avoids doing ANY new video kinda confirms that the visuals are still a possibility.
