She hates them, thinks it's ripping off your fans.
Remember how angry she got when they did it to 19? Yeah.
You never know tho maybe in 10 years

Just stating facts, and then sharing my opinion that those societal and personal messages upon which Beyoncé based her film are not convincing reasons that it should be given an Emmy over the stellar live performance of Adele at Radio City Music Hall. Though this is the Adele base you're posting in, after all, I'm sorry you can't take someone thinking the musical sun shines out of an ass other than Beyoncé's without making ludicrous claims that I had to be personally attacked by her or bitter about her work to think so.

You know damn well that the Lemonade film was a masterpiece which no other female in the game could even imagine creating. Give credit where it's due. Bitterness is not a good look.
I have constantly defended Adele in the Beyoncé base, and now I'm defending Beyoncé in here. Never did I think an Adele fan could be so bitter, especially about Beyoncé of all people when Adele literally worships her.
I'm ending this convo because I don't want to create ill feelings towards each other because I generally like you. But you are very far off the mark on this one.
I'd hate for Adele to see your comments about her fave, it would be kinda sad for her to get such a negative impression of us.
/End of convo.

Yeah, Blackbeat, I'm so jealous you got to see her. I can't wait until September!  It sounds like it was truly a magical night!
Anyways... In regards to the whole Beyoncé thing, I'm just going to say this, because I'd like to avoid getting into an argument with anyone. Lemonade was a PHENOMENAL album. One of my favorite albums since 25, to be honest. That being said, I agree with Daydreams on the whole thing. Either way, she's not being very classy about it. If the album is about Jay-Z, she's basically just destroying his image, which, I mean... Karma, but still. If it's not about him, she's allowing the public to hate him for something he didn't do. And playing the sympathy card by creating this whole story about her being cheated on is ridiculous, too, if that's what she did. I don't know. I LOVE Beyoncé and stan hard for her. But she's also very self-centered and she will do whatever it takes to get more money and fame, and she and Jay-Z both use each other to benefit their own careers. That's exactly what she's doing here, whether he cheated or not.
Lastly... In regards to the CD bundle... I don't think it's anything new. I'd love a re-release with cut songs, but like Ichi said, she doesn't like re-releases. Even if she did a box set of the three albums, I'd buy it if it was like, special packaging or something. That would be really cool, I think.

Adele made a fortune out of exploiting her relationships. In 25, she exploits her marriage struggles to Simon. In 21, she used her break-up to make an album. In fact, 21 was quite vicious at times towards her ex. Luckily, he was unknown. Beyoncé, unfortunately, doesn't have that option. Her husband is one of the biggest stars in the world. However, if Jay Z is okay with it, then why are you in here acting butthurt about it? Nothing Adele has done artistically even begins to compare to the Lemonade film, let's keep it real now.
I'm literally going to remove myself from this base for the day if this is what Daydreamers have become. I don't want no part of this hatred and vitriol.

Unnecessary overreaction but I get it cause you like both artist.
Adele herself has said she was a bitch on 21 tho so yeah & on 25 she has said it's not always perfect (relationships) plus she writes from personal experiences what do you expect. Same for Bey they don't exploits their relationships per say but it's how they let ppl talk about it that's different.
Anyway I did say that the visuals, art etc where amazing I just liked 3 songs from the album.
Everyone has their opinion tho & no one is coming at you with personal attacks yet your last paragraph is exactly that but ok.
I won't get much into this cause I don't really care about it, the SML video has me too excited

There's a massive difference, though. Adele has never disclosed the identities of the inspiration behind her first two albums, and the majority of 25 doesn't even deal with her relationship with Simon. Songs like "Water Under the Bridge" do, but they don't portray him in a negative light. In fact, Adele specifically stated she didn't feel comfortable writing a lot about her relationship with Simon.
I don't have a problem with Beyoncé putting an album out that is authentic and does deal with her marriage. But Jay-Z owns Tidal and let her put that album on Tidal, and he was in the visuals for it. Chances are that if the album was really all about him, he wouldn't let her do that. The general public, however, thinks it's about him, and Beyoncé is letting them go along with that. Therefore, she's damaging his image. Beyoncé has a lot of influence, and if the general public has to take sides, they're going to take hers. My problem is that, in my opinion, it seems very obvious that the album is not about him, but she's using this whole story to sell her album and get attention. She's playing the pity card, and as much as I love Bey, she always has been all about her. She can't have anything that damages her image, but she has no problem damaging someone else's image, and for it to be her own husband's is even worse. That's all I'm saying.
And I'm also not trying to be hateful or anything. I've said it before and I'll say it again. I LOVE Beyoncé. Check my signature. I'm a big fan. But I've always felt like she and Jay use each other's fame way too much to benefit their own careers, and I think Lemonade is the perfect demonstration of that. It's her choice to do that, but I personally would never feel comfortable doing that to my significant other knowing how the media would respond.

Always being extra & trying to start fights if someone dares to have a different opinion ... same old, same old.

Well, I'm sorry that you feel that way about me. But I'm entitled to my opinion just as much as you are.
