But why does the end of Amen and the album sounds like we're being taken by an UFO to Act III?

my theory that cowboy carter was meant to be act 1 grows stronger. It sounds like a direct lead in to I'm That Girl

It almost sounds like chronologically it goes back to Renaissance. I can see ITG playing right after Amen.

 

These visuals will be the end of me :jonnycat:

So when people said Beyoncé (of all people) was preparing an exposé on her husband, did they mean Jolene?

I love how quirky she's gotten w her sound as she progresses with her career it's very rare to see such intriguing reinvention so established into your career. She's in a league of her own

Still speechless, on my second listen.

 

All I can say is this album is musically THEATRICAL and sonically CINEMATIC at best.

 

Can't properly review until like the 3rd or 4th listen. SO MUCH to DIGEST.

Now you know how I love to deep dive and OH BABY, look what I just wondered upon. :jonny2:

 

The spaghetti Western is a broad subgenre of Western films produced in Europe. It emerged in the mid-1960s in the wake of Sergio Leone's filmmaking style and international box-office success.[1] The term was used by foreign critics because most of these Westerns were produced and directed by Italians.[2] Leone's films and other core spaghetti Westerns are often described as having eschewed, criticized or even "demythologized"[3] many of the conventions of traditional U.S. Westerns. This was partly intentional, and partly the context of a different cultural background.[4]

The album is an experiment indeed.  Each song is its own version of a reimagined Western film. She took inspiration from films like "Five Fingers For Marseilles," "Urban Cowboy," "The Hateful Eight, "Space Cowboys," "The Harder They Fall" and "Killers of the Flower Moon," often having the films playing on a screen during the recording process. Some aspects of the percussion were inspired by the 'O Brother, Where Art Thou?' soundtrack, where it was more Bluegrass. This body of work undulates from singing cowboy and Blaxploitation to Spaghetti westerns and fantasy with Beyoncé weaving between personal experiences, honoring Black history, to exaggerated character building. The limited-edition vinyl depicts a microphone in the shape of a gun ala Thelma and Louise running from the law, but the gun is invisible, hyper exaggerated reality.

I think they chose Renaissance because it's more dance track orientated. Cowboy Carter is better in my opinion.

So she buries them old ideas at the end of Amen and then starts her un-american life in Im That Girl. :celestial5: Can't wait to hear some SOPHIE and Arca productions on act iii. :celestial5:

After Renaissance was released people also said it wasn't as strong as ST or Lemonade but they eventually switched and they will again.

 

Run a REN vs. CC poll again in a few months and it'll be a different story I can bet you that.
