"She recorded all over the world for a year and a half but the initial recording started after the writers and producers gathered under one roof in The Hamptons, New York’s beach enclave, in the summer of 2012 to live together, work together and to immerse themselves into her world and into her head."
she clearly watched that Marina Abramovic documentary
― Murgatroid, Friday, 13 December 2013 08:03 (ten years ago) link
so the whole thing about them scrapping the entire album was probably bullshit right
― le goon (J0rdan S.), Friday, 13 December 2013 08:10 (ten years ago) link
this album dropping out of nowhere is a nice bookend to a year that started with the surprise mbv release.

Imagine how different this album would be if Solange didn't have a falling out with Dev Hynes and Beyonce was hanging out with her sister like all siblings do and Solange was like, "you should work with my pal Dev Hynes, he was in a band called Test Icicles"
― Murgatroid, Friday, 13 December 2013 08:13 (ten years ago) link
that probably would have sucked.
― billstevejim, Friday, 13 December 2013 08:23 (ten years ago) link
completely amazing

yes it would have sucked

Loving this. She dropped a real Black Album, didn't she?
― longneck, Friday, 13 December 2013 08:49 (ten years ago) link
Pretty sure the closest thing this album has to a radio-friendly single is like, "Blow".
― Murgatroid, Friday, 13 December 2013 08:52 (ten years ago) link
I love how we've had months of growing collective sighs and despondency regarding this album and suddenly like BOOM there it is.
Annoyingly I'm not sure I will get to listen to this today.
― Matt DC, Friday, 13 December 2013 09:02 (ten years ago) link
i think a lot of these songs would do well on r&b radio. and "xo" could be a pop hit (and a deserving one, though i was v skeptical when i saw both ryan tedder and terry richardson in the credits).
― dyl, Friday, 13 December 2013 09:03 (ten years ago) link
"rocket" just completely slayed me

'Partiton' is amazing

Just downloaded this, loading up for the trip to work. Not sure when I'll have time to watch the videos.
― MikoMcha, Friday, 13 December 2013 09:07 (ten years ago) link
bzzz bzzz zhwap at the end of 'partition' is so cute/endearing
is 'pretty hurts' too much of a message song to be a single? i can see it being embraced by a tumblr/ONTD-type crowd
― reddening, Friday, 13 December 2013 09:15 (ten years ago) link
Guys the entire world is there buying this album at once I'm not sure Beyonce even cares about singles with this one.
― Matt DC, Friday, 13 December 2013 09:19 (ten years ago) link
I mean she probably understands the value of sudden unexpected joy and delight better than pretty much anyone in pop right now.
― Matt DC, Friday, 13 December 2013 09:21 (ten years ago) link
"Though an official single didn't precede the set, two tracks are expected to be announced as the lead singles for different formats next week. "

I'm sure she'll release them, it's just that when you've just thrown the conventional promotional cycle out of the window they don't matter as much.
