I finally had time to listen to this masterpiece by itself without any distraction and it was an EXPERIENCE.

 

Like how a book or a motion picture can take you to another place.... that is what this album does. This is cinema in album form. Music history preserved.

Now it's on repeat in my daily life and so far my Top 3 are:

 

PROTECTOR, II MOST WANTED, and RIIVERDANCE. All songs here are masterpieces though in their own right.

 

I feel lucky to be part of yet another groundbreaking era and witness the further re-birth/re-peak (?) of B.

 

RIIVERDANCE really is that song

I'm not sure it's my favorite on the album - because honestly, I couldn't begin to choose a favorite yet - but Tyrant is brilliant. The layers, the lyrics.

 

One by one, you hang them high
Your hands are steady and you sleep at night
How did you turn your heart to stone?
I don't want him back, but I can't let go
Hangman, answer me now
You owe me a debt, you stole him from me
I hated you once, I envy you now
Just tell me how, tell me how

Like I don't know if I can name a better-written verse that I've heard in ages, and a with Beyoncé's voice and the harmonies, it becomes such a powerful moment. There's so much depth to even just this piece of the track - I've seen super interesting theories about how it connects back to Jolene, and addresses the other woman of that song in a hypothetical where she did "take" the narrator's man and how she's the metaphorical hangman.

 

Like I know there's similar, or more, depth and complexity to many of the other tracks, but this part of Tyrant has been winding its way through my brain literally all day.

Streaming plus sales

 

I'm pretty sure there are still some unreported physicals from the website, too, unless Canada went wild

TikTok were so real for immediately latching on to Bodyguard as the driving with the windows down in the sun anthem

 

I got back to Japan from holiday and the blue skies and spring have finally started. Bodyguard sounds phenomenal walking around looking at the cherry blossoms. I can only imagine how much I'll play it on sunny days this year.

Chills on top of chills on top of chills. She really did that with the opener and closer. By far her strongest as a collective.
