Beyoncé - 'RENAISSANCE'


Recommended Posts

Posted

I just don't understand why she released break my soul as lead? It literally sounds the only filler song on the album :michael:

 

I get that it sounds more radio friendly than the rest of the album. But i honestly feel like she there's so many heavy hitting greatness on the album that could've made a major switch in the pop scene if given the chance.

It's the absolute safest song on the album while getting her core listeners comfortable with the sound.

Absolutely. It’s catchy. The production is crisp. It’s different yet still safe for the public and fans to adjust to. 

 

Cuff It is the only other safest option but Beyoncé already did funk & probably would have been too familiar.  It’s a better follow-up single to get the crowd that loves that past sound back for her.

the way i cant even listen to anything else cuz it just sounds so boring and bland in comparison

If an album deserves to be ridiculously acclaimed by critics is this one but from what I've seen so far, it's not quite receiving the love st and lemonade did and I think it's because it's more subtly political(not to mention the insularity of critics, and especially the british ones, won't let them unveil the political undertones of the music at all) and thematically diametrically different of what an artist is expected to release in times like these. 

 

Like I want this to be the most celebrated Bey project so badly 

There are more reviews coming and hopefully those critics have had a little more time to listen to the album and give it the scores it deserves. If Lemonade is a 92 this is a 95.

Yeah i totally understand. But can you imagine if she released ALIEN SUPERSTAR as lead for example. With a high budget video shot by Joseph Khan or Francis Lawrence :jonnycat:

Now I won't take ANY Break My Soul slander. It's a SMASH

I agree, Cuff It is the obvious single but I want her to take a risk and go with Alien Superstar! It stands out and it’s different from anything else on the radio right now. 

 

Like, come on Bey… do it for the gays!

Cuff it was played today on the radio in Australia when i was going to work. And it sounded like a smash. I think it has potential to be a bigger hit than BMS. Im not sure if it was sent to radio already? 

 

On the other hand, nothing sounds like ALIEN SUPERSTAR out there. I really want it to have a proper release but it is more on the experimental side in terms of radio.

My ranking:

1) Renaissance

2) Self Titled

3) 4

4) Everything Is Love

5) I Am Sasha Fierce

6) Lemonade

7) Dangerously In Love

8) Bday

9) The Gift

Do it!! I also believe radio is a little more unpredictable these days thanks to tik tok. Bad Habit is killing it right now and I think for Beyoncé’s single catalog, Alien Superstar would be a great choice.

thankfully she won't get aoty for this since adele is getting it

 

it would be kii if she would get aoty for this album but not for selftitled or lemonade

CUFF IT >>> ALIEN SUPERSTAR

Posted

Don't know if this was brought up already, but since we're getting three acts, could it possible that we're going to have a "Winter Renaissance" and a "Spring Renaissance" too. It would be a nice thing to have, even though it would make me mad for not having a 4th season, unless an act has two of these.

Wasn't Cuff It in more playlists? 

Alien Superstar is doing better but I'm not sure it's better single material. It would be the most daring choice however.  

Whatever they chose is fine by me but it has to be one of those two songs not Church Girl.

I would have Lemonade higher in mine, maybe Bday, too, EIL lower, but this is pretty spot on
