Why wouldn’t they take advantage of what Cuff It has done on its own at this point? We’re about to go into the holiday freeze and they have a hit that could take them through the holidays if they gave it a slight push. Even releasing the visuals would give it the boost it needs. it’s truly so frustrating

DJ's are receiving "COZY" remixes, allegedly. They did a similar thing with the "BREAK MY SOUL" remixes, launching them in clubs before making them available to streaming platforms, so I believe this might be true. Good for the dance album Grammy campaign I guess. That image is apparently a fake (or at least, is a picture of a bootleg). Those 'Cozy' remixes are bootlegs that are already freely available on the internet, unless Parkwood has since approached them with the stems/multi-tracks to redo them as offical remixes?

She has to at least get one Grammy for this lol. Imo, this might be her year. Everything was well received. Um at least one Grammy is assured lol. She will likely win several Grammys for this, as usual. She could literally read the phone book on a recording and win a Grammy, that's not a problem. The question is more about AOTY specifically, not whether she will win a single Grammy.

tour next year CONFIRMED via an auction at the Wearable Art Gala (which she co-chairs along with Mama Tina and Solange, iirc)
the UNIQUE experience (with 2 tickets to the show and a guided backstage tour with Tina) went for over $150,000

Since the tour isn't happening until 2023 and is called the "Renaissance Tour", does that mean act ii won't be coming until some time after that? That's later than I expected. I figured "Cuff It" would be the last single planned for act i and then act ii would come a little later but it looks like that might not be the case. Perhaps that possibly means a 3rd single is planned for act i.

I wish at this point we can get some clarity on what’s going on. If she’s only releasing Renaissance at the moment with Act II after the tour, why such slow promotion? Why would they not be capitalizing on Cuff It? Im just getting annoyed at this point tbh.

Is it assured that the tour is not considered one of the Acts?

Is it assured that the tour is not considered one of the Acts? She hasn't gone into detail what the three acts are but in the album booklet it says that the three act project was recorded during the pandemic. While that could technically mean other things besides albums, a tour doesn't really fit that description at all.

Good lord the way Break My Soul deceived us into thinking she was gonna promote the whole project... this album deserved a full Sasha Fierce-like promo blitz.

I think she and her team/label didn't expect this success after the lukewarm radio reception outside of Urban & R&B for Beyoncé since Run The World (Girls).

This is random as hell but Beyonce really is the closest to a living "Michael Jackson" level superstar this world knows. Like the woman does it all in spades and with divinity. Hate or love her you cannot deny her talent nor her prowess.

I listened to Renaissance yesterday front to back in quiet some time, and my god is this album amazing. I also had amazing headphones on and switched on Dolby Atmos and let me tell you the detail in the production is outstanding. Like the electric synths right in the beginning of Virgos Groove instrumentation, subtle but noticeable. Everything sounds just the way it should, has enough space, it’s one of the most well mastered/mixed records of the past years. Beyoncé made this purposely the first album by her to just listen to, rather than watch. And although I’m begging her for some sort of visuals, I can proudly say now that months have passed, that this is my #1 Beyoncé album.

I can proudly say now that months have passed, that this is my #1 Beyoncé album. yeah I agree. I think "VIRGO'S GROOVE" replaces "Love on Top" as my fave from her, as well. this is my current album ranking: 1. RENAISSANCE 2. Lemonade 3. B'day -- this jumped up so much for me lately I feel like I listen to it almost as much as I listen to Renaissance lol.4. Beyoncé 5. 4 -- this swapped spots with B'day recently, I feel like it's not hitting like it used to for me, in this post-Renaissance world.6. Dangerously in Love 7. Sasha Fierce

That's brilliant marketing!!! She's smart with withholding the visuals and keep the fans waiting. Hell, a few songs have came around for me and I like three songs--and added them to my playlist too.

Cannot believe they’re fumbling yet another massive hit, it was literally served to them on a silver platter…
