Lmao ? I hear you chile, I’m just an optimist! I believe in the right SONGS..what I hear coming out DEM speakers lol ? I just think about the songs Beyonce hasn’t sung, the videos she hasn’t done, stages she hasn’t slayed...and I can’t help but think damn if she found the right 9 or 10 songs, and I mean search the music CATALOGS too like Whitney, Tina and Michael’s teams did, she could connect in a way she hasn’t...the problem today is artists try to write their own songs way too much! They should write maybe five at the most, and find other songs in the catalogs! Like Quincy Jones said, “the right song can make a star ⭐️ out of the worst singer in the world and even Sinatra or Aretha can’t save a bad song! Each song on an album should have its own thing...” ? Quincy listened to 800 songs from the CATALOGS for Thriller! Michael wrote 4 songs.
