Black Is King was completely shut out from the Emmys.
I am disappointed, but it all comes down to the lack of promo. She really should step it up. I know she doesn't need to prove anything to anyone at this point, but missing all these sales/chart hits/awards for nothing is frustrating.
Meanwhile we're getting ready for another heavily advertised Ivy Park drop no one asked for.Rest In Peace Lilly!

Anyway, now that she is not nominated, no need for the Hive to riot when she loses. Because she sure as hell was not getting en Emmy yet again.5.05.2009 / 6.22.2011 / 4.24.2013 / 4.25.2013 / 3.1.2014 / 9.13.2014 / 7.21.2016 / 7.14.2018 / 7.15.2018

Anatomy of a shutout: Why the Emmys snub Beyoncé despite her continuing to innovate on TV

It would be nice if she actually produced a real movie with a storyline and good characters, you can make it a musical but these movies just seem long video albums... And in that she won't top lemonade.I am the maniac, I am the ghoul

Black is King is all style and no substance. A lot of its boring if you don’t already enjoy the music as it is just one long music video - and I say this as someone who loves both TG and BIK.
Beyoncé may have but a lot of references into the movie and included a lot of African culture, but iconography and mise-en-scene are completely secondary to the story - in TV and film, story is the real king because without it you have nothing.
That is where Beyoncé has always failed in my opinion. Ever since she her video anthology for BDay, style has always taken priority over substance. I think she continues to believe the music tells the story and the visuals exist to compliment it - which is fine for a music video - but when you begin moving into creating 90 minute movies (rather than music videos) it doesn’t work.I have a bad feeling about this.

I think unlike the Grammys where Beyoncé is in your face with FYC campaigns, Black Is King was comparably hardly promoted.
Hairstyling categories, I think, are also voted on by a select group which usually align with local unions.
That being said, the hairstyles in BIK are remarkable and worthy!
