"Tyrant" is such an iconic song. Honestly this is some of Beyoncé's best work 

THAT BASS YESSS! I almost fainted first time I heard that. And the guitar on that track! Kevin Parker vibes.
 
And I totally agree with you - massive push for Beyonce, even more than Renaissance. This is an artist who could play it safe or even just rest on her laurels. But to put out a TRILOGY this late in her career, with each record better than the last - is just incredible.
 
 
 
 

I don’t think she’s really planning on retiring from music really… she even said it’s a way of pushing herself to do the best she can! But it’s obvious to me she does care for music and actually enjoys pop in it’s true form (one of the few this days) 

She can do her lil country album, but I want full cunt-I-fication for LDR11…I want Peppers and A&W on steroids…a FULL cunt main course. With a tits out cover! 

Ok but Cowboy Carter actually got me more excited for Lasso  Seeing Beyonce's take on country got me interested to see how Lana will take on the genre
I also highly agree on what Embach said. We should stop making it into a competition and stop pinning 2 talented, successful women against each other 

Fuck shit are we actually going to talk about beyoncé now in this thread? Look i love beyoncé and her music but let's just stop making this thread into a competition and bloodbath. We haven't even heard lasso yet. And the jack antonoff yada yada's again

I have a feeling Lana's album will be compared to Beyoncé's album and that's gonna annoy the fuck out of me once it's out. Just bc they're both doing country

well something is happening
 
her spotify, twitter and youtube profile and banners were changed to WWFAWDWG
 
wwfawdwg ads on youtube
 
this unlisted video promo of bad guy was on her youtube home tab
 
something is definitely coming related to wwafawdwg’s anniversary
 
edit: website updated and if you go to the billie room website and click on the mirror it gives you coordinates 

and swifties on twitter are already saying billie does the same thing  billie releases different vinyls variants but they don’t come with a exclusive song so you have to buy it to have the full experience. she’s 100% right here 

ok damn billie! she called out artists who put out multiple vinyl variants with slight  differences to get you to buy all of them. 

i have to agree because tbh vinyl variants should’ve always been about different colored vinyls/covers as a fun alternative to the album’s standard cover or black vinyl. and then also a deluxe record is fine too. but putting out different variants with a different song on each like taylor & olivia did…i think it’s very wasteful. 

I didn’t mean that he is a bad producer. Just that Lana limits herself a lot by having the same main producer on now the 4th album. Aaron Dessner produced the majority of folklore not Jack, and it’s one of Taylor’s best received albums while midnights isn’t that well liked despite winning AOTY.  Solar Power was panned and now Lorde is working with new people. It looks like St. Vincent ditched Jack for her newest album as well and her new songs are very good. 

honestly, 2 tracks into Cowboy Carter and the record is already more grammy worthy than midnights. Beyonce will sweep aoty imo. 

Comparison is the thief of joy

actually if she releases after september 15th lasso will be part of the 2025 grammy 

oh we are fucked. that beyonce album's so good, no aoty for us again

ok just listened to Cowboy Carter in full and... it's an f-ing masterpiece. Over an hour of astounding 21st century world-beating music production. It's all about the music. Mind-blowing music. A huge feat imo
 
Great duet with miley to boot. A duet done right (take a hint, taylor!). The song bodyguard is mega catchy and bound to be a single. The opening tracks slap. The jolene cover slaps. 
 
there's aven an interpolation of these boots are made for walking, which works as well as any interpolation on part 1.
 
it sags a bit towards the end and a few tracks or interludes probably coulda been cut, but even the slog is so god-damn good. Yeehaw

So excited.
 
Love beyonce. queen bae. oh baby

to my fellow hive that just like me was a little scared with this country thing, i say there's nothing to fear, this is still the bey we know and love! and i say this as someone who loathes country, i can't stand country music, i'm too new york for this hillbilly shit (no offense). of course, you can expect some country music but it's not all of it, which i'm really glad. this album reminds me of kacey musgraves' golden hour which featured this country aspect but was also not 100% country all the way through 

There are a lot of good moments!
some songs are a bit too long, some are criminally too short. But she was right, this isn’t a country album, it’s a Beyoncé album and there really is something for everyone 

i very much hate country music but goddamn  also don’t wanna be a hater but honestly i dont think lana could pull the country hat and boots like bey just did. this record already massacred lasso for me sorry not sorry

It leans most heavy into country and folk but as she said, it's a BEYONCE album. There's two specific moments that discuss the idea of genre bending.
 
As a Mexican American with deep southern ties, this is such a beautiful project for me. Her voice is the best it's ever been and there's so much to sink your teeth into--you can tell as always she did her homework + worked with great collaborators. The GP will obviously go for the more upbeat tracks, but the most country cuts are some of the ones I see myself going back to often. 
 
A more than worthy follow up to Act I. I hope it gives an extra push in the industry to black country singers. 
 
Also here's a nice quick read ("The daughter who eclipses the father" is a beautiful sentiment for this three act project): https://time.com/6960671/beyonce-black-country-legacy-essay/ 
 

if she's going to stick with the rave sound (which is below her but whatever i love a good heavy bass) then she could at least do beats that sound more cyberpunk-esque
