Island Goddess

The real complaint that should be focused on and heard the most needs to be with Shop Beyonce Some of the issues I've been seeing is absolutely terrible customer service and easily avoidable mishaps. The shop has never been perfect but I think swapping the era around really highlighted deep issues with logistics, because some of the merch I'm seeing delivered and it's quality, yikes. Economy is crazy to be playing with peoples money. Especially core fans that actually buy.

The base is still full of unhinged commentary per usual I see Always happens when Bey is on break because some of you lose it not having her "active" to have purpose in your life & live vicariously through her. The echo chamber also in here is also interesting but let yall tell it Bey is currently being tarred and feathered over that Reform dinner. Meanwhile it made no noise in the real world (if you go outside) and was quickly forgotten on social even by bitter ass stans of other artists and the regular haters.

I also forgot to add, the way she has seamlessly integrated SirDavis into her tour? The brand activation is it! Nobody is seeing her! It's very rare for celeb alcohol to be taken seriously and she's just built it into her brand and music world effortlessly Lowkey I couldn't imagine her releasing anything but a whisky brand for her "country" era Queen of capitalism

I haven't watched any videos of the tour because personally life has been busy, plus I wanted to be surprised. But I really appreciate this stage of her career and this trilogy. Yes, she could have probably gone above and beyond in promo, handling singles, and much more. But honestly this trilogy act has to be one of the most ambitious projects by any mainstream artist and for it to be a Black woman artist? I'm sooo proud and in awe. Like Bey had people from all walks of life in silver and chrome and now in western wear! Don't even get me started on the world building that she's clearly setting up when she's ready to reveal. Just amazing how ambitious and adventurous she's been non stop since 2013

Speak! I mainly occasionally lurk the base now but it's always the same posters sharing "critique" on every page, acting like experts (with no tangible or verifiable expertise) and simultaneously acting like they are being ostracised for it when it's noticed. There's nothing wrong with debating and being opinionated on art, that's the whole point of art. But when you post daily complaints and critiques more than what you actually like, it's fair game for judgement to be pointed back at you.

I'm so interested to see how the production of this tour is going to be. Specifically the staging,lighting and even the visual aspects. CC is such an intimate experience imo musically, especially with the focus on a lot of acoustic instruments and natural sounds. Some of the first half of the songs truly feel like you're sitting by the campfire. So intimate and very reminiscent of southern AA storytelling traditions. Like the thought of BB, JFF, Flamenco, AT, MR etc is so intriguing to me I'm sooo curious to see how she will translate it on a stadium stage

Can't believe they are still crying about this in here and on social media Some of the "hive" truly revels in negativity.

Proud of Bey for her AOTY and Country album win and doing things her own way. So Proud that she's secure in herself and does things her own way. at the crying in here over TikToks Please get a damn grip and a backbone, acting like this is the first time she's had fake outrage and negativity. Even if she lost she'd still be getting dragged. New tour coming up and who knows what else. Bask in that

How y'all holding up waiting for visuals and performances? Sir Davis era is coming to help drink the sorrows Whiskeyonce already selling out pre sales https://x.com/ourhermitage/status/1826319876132147586 https://x.com/ourhermitage/status/1826318814243324210 At least this means there might be a tour, I don't see her missing the opportunity to sell her drinks at the bar

All mess in here aside I saw this and as much as it may be frustrating that there is no movement on beys end. This is absolutely amazing and truly a major impact from CC. I hope that the BW features on CC got or will eventually get a significant boost. However It's always been a little easier for men to be accepted than for BW. I mean Nelly had a few country hits.

I would have loved to hear a live performance of any song from CC, heck an acoustic performance of Alligator Tears, even if it's done in her backyard. But I'm not about to start making trifling ass comments that I hope her Knee injury persists or wish her any other physical aliments with glee, speculate on her children's health, hope Jay cheats on her and any other unhinged and downright evil comments I've repeatedly seen in here. The months long circle jerk has made this base extremely toxic, even popping in occasionally doesn't help. It's every page!

Lol at picking the Yolanda comment but not addressing the rest of the comment. How many pages of not "stroking ego" are yall gonna do? It's not even ass kissing from me because check my post history I've dragged the ass kissers. However the lines has clearly been repeatedly crossed in here. And some of you are undeniably SICK and it has to be called out.

I don't come in here as much now but anytime I do it's always some passive aggressive and downright malicious comments. Some of you are giving Yolanda Saldívar vibes. Like really unhinged and irate. If it's not mocking her age, hoping for Cecred's failure, making slick comments that are damn near wishing harm on her, it's speculating on her kids, her health, marriage etc. And nobody better quote me with the tired " it's just jokes" "its fan talk" bullcrap because it's been months of the same comments so it clearly isn't. It's quite clear she's not planning to really push CC and has been clear for months now. Shes shown us repeatedly with Ren now CC and probably Act 3. Accept it and go live your life! Don't get wrong I would have loved Bey to be more engaged with CC too, but some of you act like you don't have anything to live for because she hasn't and that's a YOU issue not Beys.

At least she's adding different album cuts to her last two IG reels. The bar is in hell but it's progress.

I love behind the scenes and adored when artists do it about their album. It's actually what made me a DC and Bey fan. Especially Bey as a solo artists. I would LOVE a behind the scenes look at the making of American Requiem The lyrics, the composition and the instruments ( the sitar!!) are just fascinating to listen to.
