Beyoncé is not intelligent, but that's OK! Not everyone can be a scholar. She was essentially a child star. I don't even think she finished high school. Old news. Most pop stars are the same, in that regard. I’m from Houston my cousins went to high school with DC4, Robert Glasper and a few other people they all finished high school Bey is a just a country bumpkin 😂

Doesn't make her intelligent, but, like I said, doesn't really matter!

There appears to be 2 versions of the Nita Aviance Club Mix of 'Break My Soul', a 7-minute version and a 10-minute version. The official visualizer on her channel is the 7-minute version but the 10-minute version is the one supplied to YouTube by Parkwood/Columbia.

I wonder what that 7-minute cut is all about, it's not like it's a music video edit—they can loop that visualizer infinitely.

It sounds basically like a tighter edit of the same mix; basically no different to something you might have seen from remixes 20-25 years ago where the producer would have a full-length mix that was 8-10+ minutes in length, but then there'd be a shorter 5-7 minute 'mixshow edit' that still had the DJ-friendly intro and outro for mixing, but trimmed the fat from the main body of the remix. I'm just curious about why there's no mention of the two different versions/edits.

I found all of the versions on the remix EP enjoyable with the Honey Dijon being my favorite closely followed by the Terry Hunter and then the will.i.am and then the Nita Aviance. I felt that the Nita one dragged on a little too much for my liking.

Curious question - the release date for the remixes on Spotify is the 25th, but I’m only seeing them on YouTube as of yesterday. Am I missing something or am I that late to them being released?

They just put that release date so that the album continues to be listed under "Latest release" instead of the remix EP.

She definitely likes her odd releases.
My box set came in today! Now to wait for 57844 years for the 2 shirts I bought which cost me like 150 dollars.
Bey draining my account. I need a tour announcement soon so I can dust off my retirement savings.

It's elegant. I re-listened to the will.i.am one when I was getting ready for work today and I ended up liking it a little more. I realized that the piano hook in it is very similar to The Original's "I Luv U Baby"

"CUFF IT" was added to Today's Top Hits on Spotify at #23 (they took "SUMMER RENAISSANCE" out completely)
"BREAK MY SOUL" also rises to #7 on the playlist (up from #18 last week)

Makes no sense taking Summer Renaissance off of Today's Top Hits when it's under Cool New Music on All Access. Maybe they will change their mind and make Cuff It the next single?

A lot of the songs on this album reminds me of Bjork. It's a compliment, of course.
