>acclaimed
By who?

>>130003401
It’s good but no masterpiece. Renaissance is better

>>130003430
>Renaissance is better
no.

>>130003436
Why not?

I can't believe she covered Animal Collective

>>130003457
because renaissance is just a rehash of a dead genre.

>>130003401
You're gay if you listen to this

>>130003401
not music

most astroturfed performer of all time

>IT'S HARD BEING A BLACK WOMYN IN AMERICA: THE ALBUM

i remember it being praised because of the videos attached which has nothing to do with the music, not one banger on the whole thing and she used to have a handful of bangers

>>130003461
Dance music? House?

>>130003430
This. I prefer s/t and Renaissance to Lemonade

>>130003401
Never heard of it

christ i pulled up Beyonce's Renaissance album on wikipdia and almost every track has its own wiki page, that must be because her fans are obsessed because in my experience it takes an extraordinarily famous record to have many of the songs get their own page like a Beatles album or Dark Side of the Moon or something with like 5 hit singles

were you born in 2017? this shit was shilled relentlessly it was literally everywhere.
t. never listened to it lol

Beyoncé is as irrelevant outside the US as Robbie Williams is irrelevant outside the UK

>>130005569
Lmao, no. Beyonce has sold over 200 million records. Robbie Williams has sold maybe 80 million at best. The two are not even remotely in the same league. Sorry Brits.

>>130003401
The genre-hopping Lemonade (Parkwood Entertainment, 2016) was another attempt to promote her to auteur. An industry artifact with no personality, Beyonce swings between the playful reggae of Hold Up and the gospel hymn Freedom via the piano elegy Sandcastles. Best is probably Don't Hurt Yourself, which is quintessential Aretha Franklin. The collaboration with James Blake yields two of the most boring ballads of his career. All the media hype does little to make this album more than a marketing project. In fact, it's even less musical than Beyonce. She's a mediocre singer and an awful songwriter, and no amount of production work can fully hide that.
