some of her peers however seem to do that aswell without hiding from stardom 90% of the time...

Notice how her name is BEYONCÉ KNOWLES CARTER not another person.

a planned date in ******

Oooooh

When she's on her alt account do you think she types her first name with the accent every time? If she's forced to type on a windows keyboard does she know the alt code to type the e with an accent?

The version playing in the IG video doesn't sound like the one from the OG album.

And we were having meltdowns due to the $150 price.

Still ridiculous. I don't care how much I love her, I would not spend all that money on a vinyl. Phuck no

People should be complaining about the price. It's extortionately expensive. That said, the critiques and complaints should not be levelled at Beyoncé alone. As it's been pointed out, she's one of many artists charging these ridiculous prices. But there is absolutely no reason for vinyls to cost this much money. It costs barely anything to produce these vinyls, so to mark them up so egregiously is nothing but pure greed.

People need to stop bootlicking artists with this garbage take of "just don't buy it then" or "she's a premium artist". Get some self-respect, girls. These people are scamming us. Beyoncé could very easily make a significant profit on vinyls that cost half that price and sell substantially more of them to recoup the same profit. She just doesn't want to, and that's wrong. I love her, but it is.

Same thing for Cecred with her greedy ass. My Mom can't afford it and usually hair brands offer some discount for cosmetologists, and they don't even do that! If she never met Jay and was as successful as she is, I wonder if she'd be more giving and thoughtful like Dolly Parton. Jay is obsessed with money. That's all he talks about in his songs and now she's turned into him. The only way these folks will wake up is if we stop buying their **** and let her next concert look like the Anti tour.

Have you even listened to his music if this is your actual take?

@Lovett as I pointed out a couple pages back, Beyonce's profit margin looks actually lower for the 4LP then other recent releases. Vinyl production and inflation have skyrocketed prices, and labels/distributors are the ones that take the biggest piece of the pie from physical releases.

@Fleahive Cecred often has discounts around 10-30% and bundle offers that make it slightly cheaper, and its pricing is comparable to competing brands.

I agree that both cases are expensive, and my bank account definitely doesn't feel great about it, but we need to stop nitpicking on every little thing she does.

Love Bey, but shes greedy af.

Ill never forget how they set the price for the Rennie or CC vinyl at a price point 1$ short of free shipping. Diabolical

150 for that kind of vinyl is pretty standard lol

Yes, but is it just for the video or it's gonna be like that on the album

It sounds a lot less loud, so if it is indeed remastered I think the album might lose some of its flavor

Oh I see where you're coming from. We just gonna have to wait and see how the new mix works out.

In any event I own the OG bday on vinyl too. Gonna do comparison when the new ones get here.

In regards to the ongoing nonsense.

Cecred is worth every penny and cheap compared to the other clinically tested patented lines. My only gripe was not being able to get in europe without paying crazy amounts on the fees. Glad that has finally been sorted.

owning this vinyl is a luxury problem. Stream it for free on the various platforms and protect your coins.

Pointing out that the extremely wealthy are squeezing us unnecessarily to further line their pockets is neither nonsense, nor nitpicking. Time to stop being pick-me girls.

Beyoncé is a billionaire. Most of these artists are multi-millionaires. There is no feasible way you will ever convince me that them making a decent profit, as opposed to a massive profit is a problem.

They do not need to be charging us this much for merchandise and this "just don't buy it" take is beyond stupid, because we want to support our faves. When you have reached a stage in your career where money will never be an issue for you or the many generations of your family to come, you can make the choice to make your products more affordable and accessible for your fans. She is choosing not to and it's wrong.
