I’ve been catching up with DIL and curious about the consensus of the base.


It may not be the best, but definitely better than her DC output and IASF (maybe even 4).

  • It was the best concert of my life, bar none. Idc!    It was extraordinary, it was ineffable.  I knew I loved it based on the videos but I... Hey I don't know.    Best moment

    I know this award is a joke but the point is, she has cemented herself in history with the likes of Whitney and Lauryn. And on top of that she won an award for a genre that completely ridiculed and ex

It's pretty underrated even among her fanbase. 
 

Personally I love it, it's classic RnB. It's not her most cohesive but the singles are some of the best songs she's ever done and there's gems among the album cuts too. There's a few duds, namely Hip Hop star & Daddy, but outside of those it's great. 
 

I definitely prefer it over any DC album, IASF and I'd say it's almost as good as B'Day. Not as good as 4 (rearranged), but maybe better than the standard edition :eli:

Not 4 and the SMN's album but I agree with the rest. I was just talking about it sometimes ago. It’s a good effort and it surprisingly aged and held up well.

Not the essential Hip Hop Star being named a dud when That’s How You Like It and that boring duet with Hottie are right there. :deadbanana2:

I chocked :ahh: 

 

That's How You Like it is pretty weak too I agree, but The Closer I Get To You is sublime :giraffe:  Those who get it, get it.

He's on Lemonade: he co-produced "6 Inch", and did some synth programming things for "Freedom" and "Sandcastles". 

 

What he did say for "Dreams" on Twitter was that he now admits he was being pretentious at the time, and he wanted his music off of streaming platforms when Parkwood wanted it in 2014/2015. Because he created "Dreams" and it was on his project, they respected his wishes, and all proceeds from the song went to charity. Now, 8ish years later, the song has appeared on several of those "Beyonce's best deep-cuts" articles, and non-fans have found it on YouTube. It would be a no-brainer to throw it up on streaming, but maintain that the stream revenue for both B and Boots goes to the same charity. Fingers crossed Parkwood doubles back and gives their approval.

 

I hate that he deletes his Tweets, and didn't think about screen-shotting, because he mentioned that someone (not sure if it was a film, TV show) had asked him & B to license "Never Gonna Love Again" (outtake from Lem - posted below) for a soundtrack or trailer (can't remember) recently - but the deal was cancelled once the song leaked in entirety.

Just posting the other song they worked on for Lemonade as it leaked recently too:

And two beats that I'm assuming he expected her to jump at (one sounds like a bluesy-"Single Ladies"), that she rejected once Ghost/Haunted were brought up.

 

what i love about boots is he will make sure to give mama an electric guitar in the production and some indie rock vibes, he just gives her that dark, gritty, experimental sound that fits Bey like a glove (would’ve loved seeing him produce on Renaissance, he would’ve perfectly paired dance/house and rock to make a banger) 


I know we’ve had our laughs at this instrumental already but this description :deadbanana2:

It's so weird, if you finish playing an artist's album or song on Spotify, you get all his music in the queue. 

 

When you finish playing a Beyoncé's song or album, you get all female RnB and black singers, on three generations too. :rip:

And some pop ones too. Ch... 

I just noticed it this week because for once I had the "replay the album" desactivated.

Wayment. Those two instrumentals would go hard as part of her "rock" album. Bring him back, B! :jonny:

DIL is an r&b classic and one of her best albums no it’s true. Its better than 4 for me now that I’m older when I was younger I didn’t use DIL at all

I JUST said it looks like an airport to my friend.

 

I sure hope that's Jay-Z's taste because I couldn't handle if she was into that ugly ****. I can't be doing with bootlicker hive saying she's focused more on being a stay at home mom when by the looks of it those kids are in a whole different TERMINAL
