Hmm, I dunno, not really. Cowboy Carter is really a US-centric album. It's the first miss from Beyoncé for me since B'day.

Hell, the only albums I'd put below CC in a ranking would be her first two. Everything else is just miles better. 

All I know is CC over renunciation for me.

What's do yall even like about that album? mid vocals (for Beyoncé standards) and the productions isnt exactly mind blowing either. The Melodies are either sampled or recitative.

I mean when tickets are selling for as low as $20

I don't know if that's true but I read online that she's selling even less tickets than Katy Pery  That's so ****ing crazy if true.

I guess people are not very interested to see a tour for this specific album. The fact that THIS album won AOTY over her other albums is crazy

there's tickets as low as $32 even for the Sofi Stadium date though 

the level of ignorance and misinformation masquerading as facts here is out of this world.  let's go:

1) tickets selling for $20 and $32 dollars are RESALE tickets, purchased from scalpers who gambled this tour would sell out and are now panicking when they realised there is more ticket availability than they thought and are worried they won't be able to resell their tickets. so they keep lowering their prices hoping someone will buy the ticket they originally purchased. These are NOT official ticketmaster prices.

2) the reason the show hasn't sold out yet isn't due to a lack of demand but more due to really high and unrealistic prices. pretty much all the non-dynamic priced tickets have sold out, the remaining tickets are all dynamically priced and above the 'standard rate', which is usually the case for many shows of this size

3) the comparison to katy perry makes no sense since she is doing stadium residencies when KP is doing arenas. KP is struggling to sell out 2 arena dates in London when Beyoncé has a 95% sell-out rate across all shows (including 3 stadiums in paris and 5 in london)

as someone who went to renaissance and is going to cowboy carter too (for an extortionate price mind you) i'll certainly not forget the greed of the cowboy carter tour the next time she decides to tour. doing mini residencies with prices for GA starting at 300-500 per ticket depending on your location is unhinged.

renaissance is my all time favourite album but cowboy carter just hasnt held up as well as pretty much all her other albums, so its not really a surprise people arent that interested in seeing it live. i think if she had done a tour in more varied cities with a lower ticket price it wouldve resolved all the issue shes having

i agree with most of what you say but i'm confident she'll somehow serve on opening night and the demand for the tour will keep growing once people see the vision. she's never done a bad tour in the past so i'm willing to trust she knows what she's doing !

It honestly felt like “let’s give Beyoncé AOTY finally.”  

I agree though that a lot of people might not want to go to a county tour, especially if they don’t think Beyoncé will play her hits or create an “iconic” performance.  I also think she may have had better luck if she did more cities and less dates in each.

i'm sure once set list and performances end up online people will realise it's a show worth seeing

That’s exactly what I expect. I think people have already seen her for Renaissance relatively recently and are nervous about the economy so they’re not leaping to get tickets to this show but once they see videos, just like Renaissance, prices will surge

Bad wording...  B'day is the sole creator of my inner Yoncé during my childhood. I mean it was iconic - Deja Vu, Irreplaceable, Beautiful Liar, Upgrade U, Amor Gitano, Get Me Bodied. It's banger after banger!

I think the dark truth behind her move is that she just doesn't want too many empty places at her show
