rate This Was 2022 | Beyoncé's groove

[supaspaz]

Let's plan for an epic finale weekend. Your top twenty!

 

MOTOMAMI
“Saoko”
“Candy”
“Hentai”
“Bizcochito”
“La Combi Versace” with Tokischa
“Despechá”

 

UN VERANO SIN TI
“Tití Me Preguntó”
“El Apagón”

 

RENAISSANCE
“Cozy”
“Alien Superstar”
“Cuff It”
“Virgo’s Groove”
“Heated”
“All Up In Your Mind”
“America Has a Problem”
“Pure/Honey”
“Summer Renaissance”

 

SOS
“Kill Bill”
“Blind”
“Good Days”

[creativity.]

I did not realize Bizcochito was so loved. I find it grating and gave it a 1

[Sanguine]

I regret not giving Snooze a higher score, it’s quite good! Very Still Over It. Ghost in the Machine on the other hand I stand by my low score, Phoebe is just so… blah

[Sanguine]

Okay this is a good top twenty. We cleared out of most of the duds just get rid of Bad Bunny and Cozy

[BlackoutZone]

Didn’t realize we lost so much of SOS, but the remaining 3 tracks are all 11/10 so don’t touch them (Good Days would be a flawless winner too). Also glad Break My Soul was kick OWT already even with its lead single privilege

 

Now please kick all the colonizer noise   

[Soda Pop Queen]

I'm so happy Move made it this far! It should be criminal how much I play this track lol. I think it should be a single but it probably won't be. 

 

Break My Soul is still a good comeback song.

 

As It Was should've went out 10-15 spots ago. 

 

Snooze isn't one of my most played from SOS but it's decent.

MOVE

ft. Grace Jones and Tems

 

Average score: 7.72

High score: 10 (@Rev8, @Soda Pop Queen, @MP2K, @madonnas, @Ace Reject, @V3$$3L.)

Low score: 2 (@jacklovesyou1)

 

 

Pity the poor clubgoers standing in Beyoncé’s way when the queen and her girls want to bust a “Move” on the dance floor. If this hard-hitting whoop of dancehall riddims from Renaissance – which features a rare supporting turn from the legendary Grace Jones and another from the up-and-coming Nigerian singer Tems – is any indication, she’s not going to be nice when she demands that they part like the Red Sea.

 

Best bit: “Me and my girlfriends came out to play/Fireworks and champagne, Chantilly Lace”

 

ATRL says…: Many voters seemed to expect the song to perform poorly. “You're not gonna get it the first time,” @Katamari warned. @madonnas called it “100% the most underrated cut from the album.” @Rev8 agreed “issa banger.”

Out of 120 songs, you guys really chose that song at #25?

 

[BGKC]

Surprised “Move” even made it that far along side BMS. Top 30 for both is cute. Was hoping As It Was would make it into the top 20, but it was close. It’s a solid rating all around so far. Saoko and All Up In Your Ass need to find their way out already tho.

truthfully the only songs I don’t care for are SZA’s, but that’s more just her voice not clicking with me

 

anything else I’d love, but realistically I know she’s in there too and that’s fine

El Apagón”

Huh

didn't this get booted in the middle?

 i mean, it's one of the few good songs on the album so im okay with it

[supaspaz]

It's impressive that this next one made the top 20 with so few 10's.

[supaspaz]

COZY

 

Average score: 7.89

High score: 10 (@Soda Pop Queen, @Ace Reject)

Low score: 3 (@305)

 

 

It wouldn’t be a Beyoncé album without a manifesto of affirmation. (Pause for the customary gnashing of teeth over “Pretty Hurts.”) Renaissance continues the tradition with this throbbing house celebration of the things – skin color, sexuality, physical disfigurement – that prevent us from fully loving ourselves, goddamn. Samples from a Ts Madison video and Danube Dance’s “Unique” encourage us to instead feel “Cozy” in those perceived flaws.

 

Best bit: “Might I suggest you don't fuck with my sis/‘Cause she’s comfortable”

A running tally of the results is available in the OP!

[State of Grace.]

Oh naurrr. Cozy was already so underrated and honestly the tour performance elevated it so much for me.

 

It's better than AUIYM and AHAP  

[creativity.]

Cozy is so underrated! And its track placement makes so much sense, does a great job of introducing the album
