Draper.

She's already recycled her entire discography with the eras tour and the rerecordings. How about she tries something new?

I'm not saying he would tour the new album, I'm just saying he could release one. No amount of "worst case scenario" makes an EIL2 release work because: - He is celebrating HIS career with these concerts. - He is not releasing an album with Bey when "hiding behind his wife" or "using his wife for tickets" are two of the main lines his haters are using against him. - Bey has just announced B'Day 20th and used the "first song in 2 years" PR movement with Morning Dew. If she were to release EIL2 she would've kept B'Day for its 25th anniversary.

Who's the male vocalist on Morning Dew tho? From the credits I'd figure it's either The Dream or Pharrell, but it sounds like neither of them.

If that happened it would be a Jay album. He cut his hair which he only does when he finishes an album.

Renaissance least streamed track and its bonus track (that it's not even on the album) outstream 6 songs from Mayhem on Spotify. And that's with Spotify being Gaga's strongest platform and Bey's weakest. So no, Mayhem is not bigger than Renaissance by any means. Gaga just attached a successful Bruno Mars single to Mayhem that had nothing to do with the album.

You check kworb daily and still don't know how it works. Beyoncé is missing her latest release in those figures because they don't automatically appear. So she has 4 songs with over 500k and she's pulling 13.2m daily, which is just 3m away from Gaga's daily figure. Considering the amount of songs over 500k that she has it's safe to say that she has the most consumed singles, but Bey is still has the most consumed discography. That checks when you realize that Bey has 84 tracks with +100m and Gaga and Madonna have a combined total of 67. Even when you check tracks with +200m, Gaga and Madonna have a combined total of 42 while Beyoncé has 41. Now you can change the OP as you usually do for it to say "forgotten singles", but that won't change the fact that Beyoncé's discography is not forgotten.

#80 on Global Spotify

They also mentioned B'Day's charting position in Japan in the press release, and The Beyoncé Experience started in Tokyo… Maybe B'Day's reissue is trying to reignite some commercial potential in Asia before a global tour.

So Night is just the side B for miss Carly…

Not the weekly EIL2 talk…

When B'Day 20th becomes the way to repurpose all the funk tracks written by The Dream for act iii by pretending they're reworked demos from 2006.

Why choose? Let's do the rock act first, and then she can give us a new R&B classic.

New theory just dropped!! The song was released at 9 am on July 4th, and September 4th is 9/4. Which other date lands on a Friday? 4/9/2027.

f*ck spotify

Or maybe she didn't want to be part of that circus.

and Upgrade U.

I know it's not happening, but since it's popular right now: who could you see on each of the original tracklist's tracks if it she did a collab-remix version of the album?

It says that two Telephone remixes are doing 250k and Morning Dew is not even there.

Maybe she's tired of reworking act iii and decided to drop a The Dream track to test thr waters and see if there was any discourse around it.

The Renaissance font, the Purple Rain reference and the "Just kicking this little game of mine" lyric do make me feel like this is more than just a B'Day anniversary thing. Also, the press release referencing this cover: "Guitar-pick bikini" "Bodypainting that rocks" "Look who's in Elvis bed" I don't think act iii is coming this year, but reissuing BDay which is her first visual album and the one album that tackles most of the trilogy's sensibilities feels purposeful.

That's not how it works. The scores are weighted against every possible reviewer, not only with the ones that already gave their score. So if one reviewer always gives high scores and another one always gives low scores, an 80 will be counted as something lower than 80 for the first one and something higher than 80 for the second one.

What? The color in that image is clearly altered and edited, it looks cinematic af. She's supposed to be stuck at home doing regular chores and then she gets bored and steps out the house and the images we see are automatically more colorful. It's supposed to be grey-ish so there's a contrast with the other images. The idea is perfectly conveyed. It's basically the same concept they used for The Wizard of Oz or the outside/inside of The Garden of Earthly Delights.

Madonna should introduce herself and perform an entire concert on live tv because we don't care about BTS, Shakira or the game.

I mean... it's been rumoured that that actually happened: Melina Matsoukas did film things for Cowboy Carter included in the "Trailer" interlude, which we know include things filmed with Nadia. And Beyoncé knew we would eventually know the interlude was called trailer. It already looks like her most expensive visual and if she ever tried to actually pitch it to streamers is because she likes it. She's not just gonna scrap it because Netflix said "no", she'd find a way.

I mean, it's the main reason the project became what it is. If she could've toured, she would've released an even more political version of Beyincé and that's it. And Beyoncé is not the type of popstar that leans into fiction nowadays. If she wants to represent an escapist vision/utopic world, she will include the part in which someone is having those visions to land it in reality.
