Okay! If Beyonce would've licensed her music to be included in popular games like GTA, Racing games, Just Dance, WWE etc. then Gen Z would get the same nostalgia they get from Rihanna and lady Gaga. I've noticed that Beyonce and Britney never allowed their songs to be used. The ones or two games their song was used was a bad cover version. I know y'all think she's gonna be in the next GTA game—it won't happen.

So many of my favorite 2000s and 2010s songs are tied to hearing them loop over and over in a video game.

Gimme More has been playing on GTA radio for years tho. Her songs also get used for film/series. I agree Bey should at least do the basics and add her songs to Just Dance, the fact TH'E isn't even on there when fad gets like 3 new songs in next year's edition…

Bey's problem isn't really that she doesn't license her songs because she does (sure it took her like 15 years to finally clear her songs for Drag Race but still), the problem is just that she licenses the wrong songs for the wrong projects. Aka only films no one cares about. And nobody wants to hear My Power, Freedom or other random deep cuts in the trailer for a film that won't crack 20M at the box office, just give the people Crazy In Love. People loved the Single Ladies joke in Dr Stranger, there should be much more of that.

But this is just another bullet point on a very long list of things her and her incompetent team can't be arsed to get right. One of many things they could do to sustain her legacy instead of slowly letting it fizzle out, and it doesn't even require her to lift a finger. But oh well, she badly wants to be an indie flop so let her have it devil

    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

You're so ungrateful. Beyoncé is past the promo era. She's in a different phase of her career. She's focused on making rich deeply layered albums. She's not trying to chase trends. You're wasting your breath. If you don't like it go stan someone else, etc. etc.

She probably couldn't add her music to games, remember her $100 million lawsuit with Gate Five about her cancelled video game? There was probably an exclusivity clause.

I feel like Act III will be her biggest, or at least have her biggest debut week since Lemonade.

And I feel like its going to be the lowest debut of her career this far (with her studio albums) nnnnn

you forgot the part where we're supposed to bow down and thank her that she still gives us magical occasions such as spending our hard earned money on her cheap products or getting teasers of music videos that will never see the light of dayrogue

I think she can easily top 310,000 if she handled her physicals properly.

I feel like currently, her image and popularity is back to the one she had during The Gift. I feel like the goodwill she built during Rennie is all gone again.

So unless she pulls another Rennie that makes people fall in love with the project and promotes her album + the trilogy, I see her opening with around 200-250k max.

Obviously, if the lead hits and people are hype for her, things can change. But currently, this is what my gut feeling tells me.

It's actually much worse now than during TG. The Gift only had Mama Africa type of stuff that quite frankly nobody outside a couple twitter threads gave a **** about. People were still yearning for solo Bey. As of now there's 0 hype for a new album from her, everyone forgot about the visuals and no one really cares that her trilogy project is still ongoing. And the never ending controversies, hate trains and flop allegations she's been stumbling through these past 2 years are also happening outside of social media this time.

She Knows alone is a billion times bigger and more damaging than any other controversy she's been involved with in her long career. So she better come up with something quick cause some loud ass album full of Prince and Tina Turner impressions in a fried wig isn't gonna reverse any of this suburban

Let me serve optimistic-hive for once.

I purposefully ommited the fact that even in public appearances, shes serving auntie more so than "cool legend".

CC, with its atrocious vinyl/CD rollout, was able to debut with 168k pure physical+digital sales. That should be the floor as Rennie actually had bigger sales first week. Even with half the streaming numbers for act III compared to CC (which is unrealistic) you almost get to 300k.

tbf she wasn't exactly serving skinny glamazon during The Gift or the pre-Renny era in public either. Remember #that awful red carpet look for The Lion King ? she'll serve snatched headcuntress when she needs to, i'm not worried about this for the next album (as long as she doesn't serve us another F1 debacle until then)suburban
