The amount of promo this anniversary release is getting

Hyperpop exquisité All Up In Your Mind made sure of that!

Top 20 Around 30k units

The London party is on her birthday and when Jay's show takes place, so she's gonna be in town.

Transportation is one of the biggest drivers when it comes to touring, especially for such a huge production she is known for, and she could never demand the same ticket prices in South America for example, so a lot less profit overall.

"Alright my fellas, y'all gotta put some bass in your voice now c'mon!" gets me every time

In the midst of a decade spanning trilogy act though? And they're actively pushing it as well, physicals and a single release for it. Why not for her personally groundbreaking debut in 2023? I know she just embarked on the Rennie tour, but it's not like she would exhaust her commercial momentum with an anniversary release between act I and II. It just all points to me that something happened with act III behind the scenes, but I guess we'll never know for sure.

The whole anniversary and its particular moment in her career is just so odd to me still. I just hope she's not going into full legacy mode yet, expectations for the final act are certainly higher now.

Is a top 10 placement on the Hot200 feasible? Around 40k units are needed for this. Either way I hope for some new peaks on global charts.

Will they update the album with all additional tracks on streaming platforms?

One of those performances that always gets me. It's also interesting see her already being treated as THEE Beyoncé back in the late 00's (Cheryl's reaction for example).

Bey, Pharrell, Miguel and Timbaland achieved pure flaming ecstasy with this song.

It has insane replay value, that's all there is to its longevity. But at the same time I wonder why people outside the UK and Australia didn't quite catch on with it.

Thanks Bey for putting Ryan Beatty on my radar, I'm totally obsessed with his recent album. Please be back for act III.

The "Free" background adlibs during the 2nd chorus are truly liberating.

DONK gets the single treatment with the official radio push. Yep, no act III this year.

The Dark Knight, Interstellar and Oppenheimer. Decades long of acclaim, commercial success and industry impact.

The B'Day anniversary out of nowhere is still so random. When will we get the details on this?

It's over 4m posts on TikTok now, 100k daily increase.

Those curls

Her jewelry game remains unmatched. She's always allowed to wear the most outrageous pieces.

Alien Superstar's wasted potential hurts to this day, the same with Bodyguard.

They're really pushing it. This B'Day anniversary is one of the most unpredictable things she's done in a long time.

Donk has over 70k videos on TikTok already, gaining a lot today.

Why are they calling it "the upcoming epic celebration of B'DAY" in the press release? They must have planned something besides a simple rerelease.
