I remember watching and initially thinking the creative direction was groundbreaking.
Looking back at it now... it's not as GRAND as I thought.
Frank Gatson was responsible...
:udontlookok:
Bitch, fuck you.
babe this slayed, what are you on about
I see you two lack a 🧠.
I said the creative direction from Frank Gatson :uhh: not Beyoncé's actual performance(which was amazing)
This was an incredible event. I remember this is when the whites and right wing people really started to go against her and running with the "Illuminati" mess.
There will never be another

I had that same experience with this. Rewatching this performance in recent time, it doesn't feel "groundbreaking" anymore, just a great performance.
And I guess in some kinda way, that's a compliment to her because she's outdone herself so many times. Rewatching her self-titled VMAS performance and Beychella, I'm still so moved by it.
This is why I hate "retrospect". Things evolve. It's like watching "Golden Girls" now and not understanding how ground breaking it was at the time
I just rewatched BET Awards 2006 and was shook. Best performer on earth and not even no close second.

You done?
It was good for 2013 Bey, but I wouldn't even rank this in the Top 10 of all her performances.
Queen has really elevated and raised the bar since then.

Idk what this hard on is yall have for trying to discredit Frank but it's weird
Yeah. There is a reason Frank has been very successful in this business. He does a great job of working with the performers' capabilities. As we can see, he did the FUCK outta this performance.
It was great.I didn't really like the song selection.
