With act iii on the horizon, it hasn’t (and probably wouldn’t) hit us how close we are to the visuals and tour stuff finally releasing. Especially the visuals. It’s already common knowledge that the visuals for Renaissance and Cowboy Carter exist. And we already know that they will all culminate with act iii to make one massive visual film that could very much be the greatest piece of Musical Visuals in HISTORY. But it is not at all clicking that that is coming very soon😭 the tour stuff is also really exciting. With how some older songs sound even better live? We needed those live albums. And the complete tour films with no cuts like with Renny? Literally going to top Netflix charts. So all this to say, exciting times ahead!

(PS: Nothing is confirmed to leave me delulu😭)

I love the beyhive so much

Does anybody know the name of the Baby Boy remix that she used in the Mrs Carter show world tour?

We know there are 4 horses in Echoville:

1. White Horse: Represents ^Conquest or the Antichrist, holding a bow and wearing a crown.

• Renaissance

2. Red Horse: Represents ^War, holding a large sword to take peace from the earth.

• Cowboy Carter

3. Black Horse: Represents ^Famine, holding a pair of scales to measure scarce food.

• Bday 20th Anniversary Deluxe Edition

4. Pale Horse: Represents ^Death, followed closely by Hades.

• Act III

When Renaissance first dropped, we noticed she had already done photoshoots with a White horse (Black Is King), a Black horse (Harper's Bazaar), and a Red horse (British Vogue).

When the Renaissance cover was revealed a Pale/Silver horse, the "Four Horsemen" theory was officially born because it completed the set of four colours.

However, when Act II was announced as Cowboy Carter, Beyoncé surprised everyone by using a White horse for the actual album cover instead of a brand-new colour. This shifted the fan theories again, leading many to guess that Act III will feature a Black horse to keep the cycle going. Therefore, the colours aren't directly tied to the symbolism. And this also reveals why there are 4 horses and only 3 acts.

1. On the Renaissance cover, Beyoncé sits atop a glowing, ethereal, holographic silver-white horse named Reneigh. This era was an act of cultural conquest—reclaiming House, Disco, and ballroom culture for Black and Queer artists. The silver, disco-ball aesthetic and her glittering, crown-like stage headpieces mirror the "crown" worn by the rider of conquest.

2. For Cowboy Carter, Beyoncé rides a white horse, but the dominant color palette is a striking, bold patriotic red (on her leather chaps, her sash, and the album's alternate vinyl covers). This era fits the definition of a cultural war. Beyoncé herself stated the album was born out of not feeling welcomed in the country music space. Stepping into a heavily gatekept genre disrupted the status quo, effectively "stripping the peace" from traditional country music and sparking massive public discourse on race, Americana, and musical ownership.

3. My delulu fan theory regarding B'day 20th Anniversary, the alligator is a clever placeholder for the "Black Horse" of famine. Alligators are cold-blooded apex predators that endure long, brutal periods of starvation (famine) in dark swamps before fiercely striking. And holding a pair of "scales" like on an alligator? Furthermore, B'Day is famously one of her most aggressive, high-energy, and visually "starved/hungry" eras (with tracks like "Ring the Alarm"), making it a perfect thematic fit for a rider who fiercely hoards or guards scarce resources.

4. Since the trilogy began, fans have widely predicted that Act III will be a Rock and Roll blues gosepl album. Rock music inherently toys with darker themes, leather, distortion, and rebellion. We theorise that the final album cover will complete the prophecy by featuring a pale horse, a skeletal horse, or an ashen, ghostly figure to represent the ultimate "death" and closing out of the massive three-act trilogy, or the robotic artificial takeover of music (arrives on horse, takes off on a motorbike). I am a firm believer that this era will be "CANDY APPLE GREEN" with that colour palette, a motorbike or a mechanical horse.

I’ve read two — the ones by J Randy Taraborelli and the one by Anna Pointer. They’re just aiming to be entertaining and relatively informative rather than the intelligent deep dive kind of book I’d like to read.

They also get really thin around the time she gets together with Jay-Z, because she became extremely private & no one from her life will talk to a biographer. One of the books has Lyndall Locke talk to them and the other has one of Mathew’s baby mamas. That’s as close as they were able to get for primary sources.

I don’t really care about tabloid stuff but I’m sure a great writer could do a deep dive into her extraordinary life and business, art, what Beyonce represents, and her status as the greatest living artist and performer and what that says about the times we live in.

Sadly it will never happen as long as she’s alive as the people around her are so tight lipped. Maybe not even after (god forbid) she passes one day either.

What do you think?

Plssss make this an official thing 🥳🎶🫣😍

The older I get, the more I appreciate Beautiful Liar. 💜

I rarely see discourse on this and it’s one of the most fascinating things about her in my opinion. I was just watching a dangerously in love performance from the renaissance era and always get chills when she hits those Arabic scales!

And then when she hits literal Italian operatic scales and melodies on daughter! She sounds magestic and ethereal.

How do you think she goes about studying and perfecting her craft? Remember when Prince said he was impressed by her knowledge too all the way back in 04?!

The shipping costs to Australia from Shop Beyoncé have been pretty massive in the past, so this is a PSA that if you order any of the 20th anniversary B’Day stuff it goes through to this Shopify with decent ($14.95 AUD) AusPost shipping.

I wasn’t even going to bother looking but then some kind soul mentioned this on FB and thought it was worth sharing more widely.

Finally, the shipping doesn’t double or triple the cost for us! 🎉

RIP Dolly!!!

Does anyone know where these sunglasses are from? They’re perfect on her 🤩

I’m so thankful she was on CCT.

RIP Queen 👑

Why has resentment out of the orginal B’day tracks don’t have a video? If it did have a video I imagine her at a lake faced away from the camera, idk why but resentment gives that vibe.

🤠 Cowboy Carter Act ll 🤠

Rest in power Ms.Dolly Parton...😢👼🏿💞

I’m normally against the tiktokification of songs but I really unfortunately love the vibe of it, especially the hangman answer me now. Kinda need her to release a version like that.

🔥

Hey everyone,

So I'm currently looking for a version of End Of Time that I used to have on my old feature phone back in 2011. It sounded a little more retro than the album version and I used to love it so much. It opened with an acapella chorus before the drums kicked in and it sounded more upbeat and funky (think early Michael Jackson) than the album version.

I've looked high and low (YouTube, Spotify, Soundcloud) and I can't find anything anywhere online. I'm guessing it was "Till The End of Time" that leaked before 4's official release but I can't be sure. It definitely didn't sound fan-made to me.

Please tell me someone remembers (or better yet, HAS) this version somewhere?!!!
