Heated was the track I was LEAST excited about, after listening to that tired ass Demo, and seeing Drakes name on it, BUT it was the first to really hit me hard, and is my favorite song on the album, still.

 

Cuff It and Alien were the two immediate tracks for me though

 

Pure was the most mind blowing to me, followed by AUIYM and Cozy.  The production on these are the most risky IMO, and are all complete standouts.

Cuff It is THAT girl. I can’t wait to do the challenge with my cousins over thanksgiving dinner.  

Didn’t some one say Beyoncé was performing on SNL this season?

I’ve had to warm up to Cuff It ? Disco is timeless but it can also be a bit generic, and Cuff read generic for me the first week or so. Same with Get Lucky and Levitating. It took some time to appreciate how everything after the second verse modernizes it. 
 

But HEATED?! Instant favorite, it’s a classic, it can be an ironic winter single. I do NOT want a Drake remix unless he matches her key, does the first verse, and leaves the rest of the song as is.

Speaking of Drake. The way his album is completely forgagotten and Bey's is still being discussed. Maybe he should've made a few Heateds for himself.

 

I'm That Girl has been HITTING this week

He’s good for a quick little single

I think this was why CUFF IT barely left an impression. It's very generic, especially on an album like RENAISSANCE.

 

COZY, ALIEN SUPERSTAR, MOVE, PLASTIC OFF THE SOFA, PURE/HONEY, SUMMER RENAISSANCE,  VIRGOS GROOVE, AMERICA HAS A PROBLEM.

 

Everything feels so experimental and obscure, and then....there's CUFF IT.

 

Makes sense why it's as successful as it is though

That throbbing bass line!!! 
 

 

Cozy also sounds like BUTTER. What an ANTHEM my most played song of the album

I feel like we don't discuss this enough. Top-2 on the album frfr

 

If they choose a 3rd single then I also think it should be Heated. It's a fan favourite after Cuff It & Alien Superstar.

1000% agree. Its deadass a sleeper hit.

 

I think PLASTIC OFF THE SOFA would be the best 3rd single. It's a ballad and definitely shifts the mood of the era. It also has the best video (in my mind).

 

SUMMER RENAISSANCE should be the final single though.

Beyonce does the throwback funk/disco sound better than anyone IMO...she could've lived & existed as a diva in that era for real.

 

she's been sprinkling this sound throughout her entire career while others have had career defining hits with this sound. so i'm glad its her turn.

 

i view this "Cuff It" success as restitution for all of the Work It Out, Blow, Schoolin' Life, Why Don't You Love Me, Suga Mama moments that got overlooked

The era would end instantly

 

AHAP definitely has the best video (in my mind). I mean, her breaking that egg on her tittie is iconic

To me, CUFF IT is in the same genre as Love on Top, Schoolin Life, and even HONEY.

 

Idk how to exactly describe the sound, but Bey just EXCELS at it

Pure undiluted JOY is how I'd describe it

Now I love POTS but single material?
