„Renaissance found Beyonce unabashedly celebrating Black pleasure in all its multitudes, illustrating that theme with dozens of sampled voices and sounds, esteemed guests (Grace Jones!), and echoes to global club styles past and present. As is customary for her, she layers the album with enough totems to fuel a million think pieces and dissertations. Yet it’s also possible to simply dance and vibe to the music. This is Beyoncé at her joyous peak, and you won’t get it unless you pull the “plastic off the sofa,” “drop it like a thottie,” and enjoy Queen Bey at her thrilling best.“
Is the tour movie on streaming yet
No, but it’s the last week they’re showing it in theatres. An announcement is imminent.
I think she should do some standalone “small” intimate concerts in Japan, South Korea, Philippines, Hong Kong and Indonesia just to put her name out there before the next tour and album
Asia is a weak market for her post-Sasha Fierce
I imagine something like the Dubai show
Another viral song not available on major streaming services, but on f***ing Tidal and ITunes in 2024. Going all in on Tidal was the single most ridiculous decision she did.

Welp.
So that was one of those things that happened pretty late. We were like, “Yo, we need something for this film.” And it’s October at that particular point. “Are you going to pick a record we already have?” And I think we thought about that at first, and then it was more so about, “Hey, let’s just do something from how we are feeling now. Man, let’s just have a good time.”
And then that record came about, and that’s kind of the end of the story. “How do we wrap Renaissance up in a way without also trying to compete with it or make something that’s light-Renaissance, because Renaissance is a special thing?”
idk about PopBase and the "act 2 is on the way" part but at least it's confirmed that MY HOUSE and the film are the end to RENAISSANCE. even if it was pretty obvious lol
also congrats to The-Dream on his Oscar nomination!!

At least Parkwood came out and denied the rumours. But we’re officially back in the trenches.
