Summary: “Beyoncé is selling “listening only” tickets for her Renaissance tour. The seats are behind the stage, so you can’t see any of the set or dancing, but they only cost $157 compared to the ~$900 fans have been paying for regular US tickets.”

haha!

    @HobbitFoot I saw some video last week talking about how Jay-Z was one of the faces of Black Conservatism and I’d never really considered it. Their marriage always seemed more like a corporate merger to consolidate power and branding potential. So it wouldn’t shock me if she’s a very careful curated personality to maximize profits than anything.

      If you read into their early history, you can almost make the argument that Jay-Z groomed Beyonce to be his wife/talent. And it worked.

      Jay-Z’s biggest talent is knowing who to collaborate with to make commercially successful music, and he obviously shared that gift with his wife to keep her career going long after her type of music was commercially viable. So if Beyonce divorced Jay-Z the husband, she is also divorcing Jay-Z the manager.
