Rigalo Posted December 1, 2023 Posted December 1, 2023 Another track from Renaissance is like a ******* dream came true
Tripthelight Posted December 1, 2023 Posted December 1, 2023 Whew…this is so addictive. Like Homecoming and REN had a baby. 5
satellites.™ Posted December 1, 2023 Posted December 1, 2023 Ok this is just insanely good, she knows EXACTLY what needs to be done and when, like omg. 4
brooklyndaddy Posted December 1, 2023 Posted December 1, 2023 Part 1 is awful but part 2 is serviceable. Still failing to see anything special in the music of this era unfortunately. 3
Click Clack Posted December 1, 2023 Posted December 1, 2023 don’t make me get up out my seat (KERI) 6
Shinning Posted December 1, 2023 Posted December 1, 2023 She put crack in this. The gospel vocals in the end. Her musicality is actually insane. 3
Brikenbur Posted December 1, 2023 Posted December 1, 2023 Everyone got UP when this started playing during the credits! I personally think it caps off the movie perfectly! It’s a celebratory anthem

You’ve got to be kidding? Just because Beyoncé has been experimental doesn’t mean her further disregard of song structure, trends, how palatable her music will be for radio/playlists etc isn’t just that; experimental. This song is abrasive af and doesn’t sound like anything anyone remotely mainstream is putting out rn. It’s a fun victory lap that melds and pushes sounds Beyoncé has dabbled in before to the extreme. Just because Beyoncé has put her personality all over this track doesn’t mean she’s playing it safe. She has pushed boundaries/been experimental since her DC days and if this is anything to go by she will continue to do so. 2

AFullMoonlight Posted December 1, 2023 Posted December 1, 2023 The first half is giving scrub the ground. I wouldn’t expect some of you to get this. It’s a bop and the HBCU majorette teams are going to run it up.

Reginald Posted December 1, 2023 Posted December 1, 2023 I love the production in the second half. It's pretty good!

swissman Posted December 1, 2023 Posted December 1, 2023 (edited) 1 hour ago, Lose My Breath said: Y'all are crazy, this was instant for me, especially the last half Agreed! And I'm actually someone who usually requires more listens to like/get stuff, even by Beyoncé, but this was IMMEDIATE. The switches, twists and turns she takes, the way she can swap genre but still be situated firmly in the same song. It's amazing and immaculate and all those that don't "get it" must surely just be behind Beyoncé's mindset because she's clearly uninterested in respecting pop formula anymore, in almost any way. And how does it feel like an entire song has happened before we even get to the 2 min mark, so that the rest is an even bigger bonus? I had to check the time and saw it was only 4:22... I thought it was going to be over 6:00 based on how it felt. It's definitely a 10/10. And if I'M THAT GIRL is the intro into this act, MY HOUSE feels like the inverse kind of song...similarly scattered and rather experimental, but still either setting or closing the scene perfectly.

Sure it doesn’t like a top 10 pop radio song but that doesn’t then make it experimental by default

satellites.™ Posted December 1, 2023 Posted December 1, 2023 Also, the people saying this is noise are lowkey annoying me with that microaggression, anytime you hear chants and or drums (a la African sounds) in your head, you use the word "noise" bih, we know what you mean. That NOISE is very common in southern HBCU culture and you know where else? At most fraternities and sports communities, meaning, you've heard them since we know you chase any balding dude with visible muscle and ill fitting khakis. Uglasses, get on my nerves. 2 9 8
