brooklyndaddy Posted July 28, 2022 Posted July 28, 2022 How do VG, AUIYM, and AS (her best songs since Lemonade) occupy the same track list as Move (literally traumatizing)
Bey Admired Posted July 28, 2022 Posted July 28, 2022 This album is her magnum opus. It’s quintessential Beyoncé. There are some songs I’m personally not the biggest fan of (I’m That Girl, Move) but I can still appreciate them. The holy trinity is very obviously: 1. Alien Superstar 2. Pure|Honey 3. Summer Renaissance This is not a commercial album, despite being a dance album. It’s extremely experimental and unorthodox. I can now see why she released BMS as the lead as it’s definitely the most orthodox and radio friendly song on the album.

This is why you girls aren’t working in the industry. Alien Superstar is not single material at all. It’s an incredible song but is not easily digestible for the general public. You know better than that
Lose My Breath Posted July 28, 2022 Posted July 28, 2022 All Up In Your Mind is serving serial killer/stalker Have y’all listened to the words? lol

Her viral dancing video with the machete was to a Beyoncé song from the Gift… then she was dragging Bey claiming she stole Yoruba influence from her as well as her sound. Well now she can seethe even further now it’s on music record of Bey clowning her ass

Bey has enough money and success, she could put out real, more risky art and sell tf out of it anyway I swear some of y’all equate quality with GP digestibility, IDGAF if mom’s driving Braxton home from soccer practice like it or not

Kassi Posted July 28, 2022 Posted July 28, 2022 Why is that poster acting like TWOTW, her first major hit album, wasn’t 95% rap singing? From the singles alone, - Bill Bill Bill - Bug A Boo - Say My Name - Jumpin Jumpin …3/4 are rap sung stacco’d songs. This has been her style for forever. Not every one of her album is gonna be like 4. Like, go somewhere with all of this negativity.
Starshine Posted July 28, 2022 Posted July 28, 2022 MOVE is the weakest track yup yup. It sounds like TG reject to me.
Sergi91 Posted July 28, 2022 Posted July 28, 2022 I thought it was already Thursday night which meant this was finally released

She’s talk-singing 90% of the time. It’s terrible. I WISH this album served an ounce of the actual melodies/singing planet her serves. Instead we got a 41 year old who CAN SING not leaning into her strength and instead mimicking dojas enunciation half the time, and the other half she sounds like a Puerto Rican from the Bronx. WHY?! Bey has been rap-singing since doja was in kindergarten and none of the rapping here even remotely evokes doja. And vocals are EVERYWHERE. Good singing =/= belting at the top of your lungs (though Beyoncé has done that) Her vocal performance throughout the album is masterful. Edited July 28, 2022 by PrettyHurts

Bey Admired Posted July 28, 2022 Posted July 28, 2022 All Up In Your Mind has grown on me massively from the first time I heard it. It’s edging closer to my holy trinity

If you want depth and poetry Lemonade and The Gift are right there. Me and my girlies came to the dancefloor to dance. So MOVE OUT THE WAY. I’m with my girls and we all need space! If pointing out the lyrics sound aluminum and they are embarrassing is heeing and hawing, well, HEE HAW. at least I had the decency to give Bey the respect of a full listen. My partner, who was a fan of break my soul, took out his AirPod. this is not a good album. It’s not even mid. It’s bad. Edited July 28, 2022 by lostcause

The first minute is unbearable. It's not a bad song, it's just giving me PTSD flashbacks. Also I think I've already heard it in the IVY PARK campaign?

And if you actually was apart you would know that Mike Q VJ Pumpdabeat and Kevin JZ are feature / Credited and they are straight from Ballroom . Kevin is like the biggest MC and Mike Q VJ Pumpdabeat the biggest DJs of Ballroom atm . The people from the scene so far have been giving nothing but praise especially since its a big moment for those people being featured on a B Album . He really thought he was doing something with his trash take. You cleared with experience and FACTS.

Focus on the fact that GRACE JONES is on the song… ballroom pays respect to the MOTHERS of ballroom. Grace Jones and Beyoncé saying one another’s names was enough for me. It does ring of The Gift, but I don’t think she’s going to abandon that sound, but incorporate it into her work more.

I don’t care if you don’t care about whether if Mom’s driving Braxton home from soccer practice likes it or not, but one thing’s for sure, Parkwood does. So now what…

Look at songs like happier than ever, the transition is what hooks you in. For alien superstar it’s 100% the chorus. As soon as I heard it, I was sold.
