does anyone recognize the synth that starts at 3:12...?

 

I mean maybe it's not a sample but it reminds me of something and I can't place it...another Beyoncé track perhaps? Single Ladies? An 80s song?

 

Thoughts?

It's common in a lot of The Dream's songs (single ladies, too)

thanks for confirming that it should sound familiar!

 

love that sort of call-back to Single Ladies.

are you beyonce fans 100% happy with this song? i dont think its a bad song. but for a beyonce comeback, it doesnt say much about her as an artist. whereas songs like six inch heels or most of lemo-ST do

I think I am 100% happy with the choice in first single. I won't be happy if there isn't the depth & spirit of experimentation we've come to know & expect from Mrs Bey

yes! I am 125% happy with it. first listen I was not sure what to think, but by the second I was hooked and now I see all its brilliance.

 

As far as what it says about her as an artist? Beyoncé has long been about empowerment, and this song is no different, but expands the style of inspiration from mere audacious bold confidence to something more internally felt, something you can experience and then take proudly to the dance floor.

 

It also is very Beyoncé post-2013 in that she is very much shedding a light on Black Excellence through the use of genre and sample, and it serves almost as a reclamation (or a reminder of the history) of the impact of Black artists to electronic dance music.

 

Even artistically, it states her intent with the project to make fun and empowering music that doesn't feel heavy but lifts you up.

 

I don't think 6 Inch personally says a lot about Beyoncé per se. That one seems to me to be much more character driven than this which even if she is kind of singing lyrics of the every-person, still uses her own name. It interesting you've listed that song though as it wasn't even a single.

I dreamed of a house track from Bey and never expected it to come to fruition the exact way I wanted at the time of her career I wanted. For that alone I love it, but it's genuinely catchy and the sample is one of my faves even if it's overdone. I also know it'll be outdone by far better album tracks (as is always the way with Bey) so I get to be excited about what's to come too.

 

If nothing else smashes on the album and this is the reflection of the era I won't even be mad. If she's got the locals out their seats dancing and we get a good album from it then she's managed to conquer both areas. I won't even be mad if it's not the best album of her career. Self Titled and Lemonade are tough acts to follow, so better to go a completely new route than try to out-Beyoncé herself.

I would love if Solange was the director. She has acted as a director in the past, but not for any of Beyoncé’s material.

After that **** Solange pulled with SZA’s weekend video, I don’t trust her.

I wouldn't mind at all if Beyoncé directed this herself. She did a great job with Find Your Way Back.

Solange should be banned from directing after that :rip:

It just takes one Tiktok choreo ala Lizzo's About Damn Time (after 3 weeks) to spread like wildfire and its over

 

It will smash

Wait why is her icon on all socials still blank even though the era’s started. :rip: I guess she’s probably waiting for the album cover to be revealed so she can change it to that, but she should at least update it to the single cover for the moment.

It could be, however this was already out. I believe this is the auto generated one that Youtube always does. It probably shouldn't impact her video count but I could be wrong.

I love the song. I love the genre (dance/house/etc) and my favorite artist is making music for it.

She has better songs for sure but this is new territory for her. She probably has way better tracks on the album :gaygacat5:

Not 6 Inch being named as an example track that’s better than this from her last few eras :rip: Dozens of better choices than that song, it is nowhere near this song in terms of quality.

I'd assume she just wants to change it once for the era... I can see why she's waiting for the full rollout to update it and make the era feel like its fully started. the video isn't even out yet so we really have no idea what this era's "look" is outside of the single cover where she's even bit "hidden"...

If she was smart, she would show up to the clubs and perform this like they did back in the late-80s and 90s. Would be a excellent marketing strategy

This is the video I thought people were talking about because I saw yesterday but couldn’t find it today.
