glamrock<3 Posted July 31, 2022 Posted July 31, 2022 It's the way that Alien Superstar and CHURCH GIRL has been stuck in my head today I've literally been singing it to myself like the gems they are... agh, her mind.
Ibrahim Posted July 31, 2022 Posted July 31, 2022 (edited) Didn't know this was already released in full. I wasn't sold on Break My Soul because it was too safe for my tastes but in the context of the whole album - Jesus. I'm not done yet but going through this track consecutively and the seamless blend of tracks, Cozy, Alien Superstar, Cuff It, Energy, and Break My Soul are all just non-stop bops. And Energy bleeding into Break My Soul makes a lot of sonic sense. The variety and her attitudinal exploration with her vocal delivery is interwoven in this chaotic way that sound genuinely fun for her to act out. You can hear the fun she's having with these tracks and it really translates through. So far haven't really felt I'm That Girl and Church sounds like that start of the album slowing down possibly.

abeille Posted July 31, 2022 Posted July 31, 2022 (edited) The fact that she managed to conceal so many statements on the album is incredible. I never noticed she was describing the pride flag in Cozy. Edited July 31, 2022 by abeille
qurl Posted July 31, 2022 Posted July 31, 2022 at this point the only song i don’t connect with is Cozy … it just doesn’t really do anything for me. perfectly fine but in an album of no skips it’s the one i would be inclined to skip. i had the same feeling about Heated but that one got stuck in my head today and now i luv it. i’m also not in LOVE with Church Girl or Plastic off the Sofa, the former is a lil too similar to Get Me Bodied (which outsold) and the latter which is basically just a Sabrina Claudio demo (that Bey has some mind blowing runs on) this is her best album. no question. the detail that went into this is insane. the background vocals alone are just ……… she really blew it out of the f*cking water. what i love even more is that this album doesn’t seem like an attempt to endear Beyoncé to anyone who doesn’t already stan her but it seems to be having that effect anyway. i have more than a couple friends who think Beyoncé is overrated who have admitted they love this album and that it’s finally the thing that made them appreciate her. if anything, my some of hardcore Beyoncé stan friends have said this one isn’t for them , but she has such a vast backcatalogue of things they can listen to anyway and there’s potentially two more albums coming. Break My Soul is her best lead single. period. she released that song right when the world was going to **** and right before Pride she knew EXACTLY what she was doing. the best songs are: I’m That Girl (yes she is), Alien Superstar (could have been weirder but she did what needed to be done), Cuff It (i was meh on it at first but the joy that radiates from that song is sublime), Virgo’s Groove (a masterpiece), Thique (i was simply not ready for this one), All Up in Your Mind (Beyoncé and AG cook ??? my *** dreams realized), America Has a Problem (this beat is exactly what i was wanting from this album), Pure/Honey (the *** jumped out), and Summer Renaissance (Bey singing I Feel Love was a spiritual experience the first time i heard it) the second half of the album is vastly superior to an album that’s first half was already scalp’d worthy. 15/10. end review.

ADMKHN Posted July 31, 2022 Posted July 31, 2022 I cannot get over the last minute of Heated. She really did that.
Ice Cream Skies Posted July 31, 2022 Posted July 31, 2022 Damn, I love the burning of the dagger from the words that you say... F**k, yeah...
Haus Posted July 31, 2022 Posted July 31, 2022 The way she has had me parked in this thread ever since the leak… I rarely post on here anymore but I swear she is rising something out of me I have an environmental philosophy video final due tonight that I started last night and it feels like kinda groundbreaking work, it’s just pouring out of me
Blue Rose Posted July 31, 2022 Posted July 31, 2022 The BMS video must read not be ready if they are dropping this instead fighting for that #1 too

By the Water Posted July 31, 2022 Posted July 31, 2022 I'm obsessed with Cuff It. Does she still do singles nowadays? Because that song screamed single from the very first listen
Cain Posted July 31, 2022 Posted July 31, 2022 2 minutes ago, qurl said: not for the straightest song on the album That would be Heated (minus the outro) Also Cozy is gay af, she's fully describing the pride flag ff
