comrade 33 Posted December 13, 2013 Share Posted December 13, 2013 Translation - I'm too busy being a mom and touring to do promo, I used my hyped Superbowl performance to promote my tour, and now I'm making an virtue of being lazy. As is Kanye didn't try to instant release thing already with Yeezus. Hey, I didn't even bother with an original title or theme, just called it Beyonce. lazy ppl don't film a ****load of music videos one after another nor do they have the nerve or stress capacity to keep a project like this under the radar until the very end Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
MonsterOfSpain 8,279 Posted December 13, 2013 Share Posted December 13, 2013 Is this her 5th official album? I'm so confused. Why all the songs have video + there's no single? Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Vernier 3,786 Posted December 13, 2013 Share Posted December 13, 2013 Is this her 5th official album? I'm so confused. Why all the songs have video + there's no single? Yes it's officially her 5th album unless she's trolling us again, and she made all the tracks with vids for a visual listening experience which is something different. And she's reportedly releasing two singles at once being sent to radio next week Frankly my dear, I don't give a damn Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
GlitteredSpandex 0 Posted December 13, 2013 Share Posted December 13, 2013 I downloaded it without even thinking, but it's so boring and s-xual and just a monotonous single key mess. It's disappointing. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

ELECTRAHEARTPOP 93 Posted December 13, 2013 Share Posted December 13, 2013 Anyone ripped the audio from Grown Woman yet? Is it any different? Can definitely see why Grown Woman and Standing On The Sun are not on the album, they wouldn't have fit. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Scarlet Witch 1,067 Posted December 13, 2013 Share Posted December 13, 2013 Love the album. So refreshing. But it's not that GP friendly. Kinda makes ARTPOP look like a Katy record. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Deacon 5 Posted December 13, 2013 Share Posted December 13, 2013 okay no SERIOUSLY beyonce just tore out our weaves and fcked our boyfriends - not only with this surprise release thing, but mostly with the album itself. the album is surprisingly good (i actually wasn't expecting her to deliver something so amazing) and the fact that it's a visual experience as well as a musical one just adds to how great it is. and it's not like the videos are just cheap, lazy attempts at something visual, they're all actually really good and well made! I hate to say this, but... this album is everything ARTPOP should've been. it's sonically incredible and completely different to what the other pop girls are doing right now. the sound is pure art, and the artistic references in the videos are fab too. I love gaga and she'll always be my number one but well done bey This. Bey did something really innovative here and after all the album trolling she did this year, I certainly wasn't expecting to say that. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Spock 20,290 Posted December 13, 2013 Share Posted December 13, 2013 Would be great if someone ripped the audio from the 3 that are video only!! (Ghost, Yonce, Grown Woman) - 17 track album then! Yes, this!

LetsGetHigh 52,683 Posted December 13, 2013 Share Posted December 13, 2013 The stealth Thursday evening (9 p.m PT) release of Beyonce's self-titled fifth solo studio set is likely headed towards a No. 1 debut on the Billboard 200 when that chart's top 10 is revealed on Wednesday, Dec. 18. The iTunes exclusive "visual" album, retailing for $15.99 contains 14 tracks -- not available for a la carte purchases until Dec. 20 -- and 14 accompanying videos, along with other bonus video content. As of this morning, no set date has been announced for the CD release to physical retailers or of its availability on other digital download sites. In just a three-hour sales window (closing at midnight Friday PT), "Beyonce" reportedly sold over 80,000 copies, according to industry sources. It's still too early to judge what the set will do over the full three days left in the sales tracking week (which ends Sunday night), but with prior projected leader, "Blame It All On My Roots: Five Decades Of Influences" by Garth Brooks, estimated to shift 150,000-160,000 units, Beyonce is already halfway to that sum. And in the time it would take someone to fly from New York to Miami. The album release was so heavily guarded, that reportedly only a dozen or so members of her Sony Records family were even aware of the set being pushed to iTunes yesterday evening. Beyonce's last studio set "4" sold 310,000 in its debut week in July of 2011, but that was with a full sales week and a marketing/media push leading up to the release. It is an interesting commentary on the influence of social media in today's world if "Beyonce" can come close to that sum with just social buzz driving the project instead of weeks of traditional media promotion normally part of the album release playbook. Stay tuned to Billboard.com as we track "Beyonce's" sales over the course of the weekend and predict where the album will land, both in units and in rank, when the top of the Billboard 200 chart is revealed on Wednesday, Dec. 18. http://www.billboard.com/articles/news/5839682/beyonce-surprise-album-sales-forecast-billboard-200-chart?utm_source=twitter Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
