Yog Posted June 22, 2022 Share Posted June 22, 2022 I’m so happy for Beyoncé, to be honest I really thought her pop commercial appeal was pretty much dead & gone after the “4” era, thankfully I was wrong Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I really think she's going to have a blast this era and its going to reflect in the performances and everywhere else. Lemonade had to be a really vulnerable and heavy era for her Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

This is how I feel too, it sounds like a remix of a Beyonce song that someone put together in Garageband. Her voice is definitely clashing with the production. Her voice doesn’t suit this sound, at least on this song. It be might different on other songs on the album so let’s see. I have to agree, ultimately. I think its her overuse of growls these days. I feel a silkier voice like for example Kelly has, as everyone is saying, would suit it better But I'm still enjoying it. It just has the feeling of being a remix of an r&b song Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We Gaga fans we exaggerated her sales from her debut to make her look good.That's not an hyperbole tho, thats a straight up lie. Gaga not leaving your brain...... literally unhinged - #1 without Drake in the US. Smashing all over Europe. Lets go Edited June 22, 2022 by State of Grace.

The dummies in here thinking she's "going back to pop music" when she's still releasing unapologetically black music. I mean lbr pop music has always been taking its cues and appropriating black music and culture. Trap, house and the EDM wave, r&b. Bey doing pop means shes still repping for her girls! The only time pop music probably will not be taking anything from black culture is if they start making bardcore medieval pop songs. Anyways after a lot of listens Ms. Freedia's chants really hype me up when I was in the gym earlier. Release your anger, release your job! GETS ME SO HYPED! A club and radio staple I fear!

She was doing r&b while Rihanna was doing eurodance and Katy was doing Max Martin while Gaga was giving RedOne left and right. Among her r&b peers like Ciara, Bey was the only one that really survived that wipe out of r&b artists. Rihanna has always been more pop than r&b (dare I say among the 2000s onwards MPG only Bey and Ariana have rlly been delving into their own r&b subgenres the most) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Doogle Posted June 22, 2022 Share Posted June 22, 2022 The song still growing on AM in a bunch of European countries that have “never heard of her” according to members on here. It’s so funny to me. I guess the new excuse will be they’re checking out this unknown new dance artist called Beyoncé Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It all paid off. There's nothing R&B about 2010s Rihanna Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
