I’m hesitant on if these are new songs for Act II or just unreleased tracks. She might be using some for her new album, who knows. I know a few of these songwriters and it’s been YEARS (10+) since they worked with her.

yeah a lot of those are old and/or code names for songs that are already out. "In Love With Love" and "Fantasy" are Survivor album leftovers from DC days. "Outreaux" is a song by Ambré that samples Beyoncé's "Party". that twitter user is hiding all the replies pointing it out lmao people are odd.
"CUFF IT" watch:

intriguing decision. I'm hoping this means we'll have the visuals before October 4. it would make sense with my theory that the "renaissance film" is coming before September 30 to meet the Grammy deadline (and have people talking before Taylor Swift inevitably becomes the hot topic in mid-late October). I am really hoping we'll get something this week seeing as Virgo SZN is concluding on Friday.

Just like that, break my soul came and went without any music video. Who else is doing that in today’s music?

Nevermind "CUFF IT" having organic momentum, "Church Girl" is just an awful single choice.

Hopefully she and her team re-consider. If not, "Cuff It" could end up pulling a "Dark Horse" where radio and the general public embraces it to the point that it overshadows whatever else they try to release.

IG bio changed to "CUFF IT season," and a new page on her website for the best videos using the song. she's coming, your honor.

This era annoys me so much. When I thought her and her team were going to play the game, they just haven't bothered. :'( No visual releases yet despite the constant teasing. "Break My Soul" could've had a better chart run if they released the video. Now "Cuff It" is taking off across the world but they aren't sending it to US radio and I doubt they will release the video as well.
This era could've been so much bigger. Granted it'll still continue to do well and I realise Beyoncé isn't chasing the charts and such. But I thought this era might've been a bit different. She could easily have multiple long-lasting big hits from this album to carry the era across a couple years + if she is doing a massive tour to support the album it could potentially be one of her biggest eras.

It’s very very odd. I still have some hope but if her and her team don’t act on the Cuff It hype - which IMO could be her next massive hit in the Single Ladies category - Ima be pissed. That’s when I’ll give up.

^I agree. I just don't understand this era at all. She teased videos, had those magazine covers, and that is about it. I could understand wanting the album to breathe a bit to get people to sit with the music but it's been far too long. Something needs to happen.

Where’s the videos?? I swore she was going to drop them near her Bday. Maybe she’s going to say Screw it and just release the 2 part?

I dunno, but this whole situation is giving me the feeling that she didn't want to release this album in July, but for whatever reason Columbia put her against the wall and made her release it that date. This explains the lack of visuals and her complete disdain for the "era".
The question is why would they make her do that. Maybe they were pissed for all this time without a Lemonade follow up, maybe there is a big artist under Columbia dropping music by the end of the year and they didn't want them to crash.
