Y'all know this is just my opinion, right?
This is the album Azealia Banks could’ve made if she wasn’t waging wars on Twitter all day
Might get hate for this but the influence of LGBT culture on this album seems to be lost on everyone and it's sad. Beyonce knew what she was doing and I applaud her for it. And the category is: iconic.
Strangely, I really didn't enjoy Break My Soul as a single, but it's incredible in the context of this album
i’ve come to learn and appreciate that beyoncé is no longer a singles artist. all the tracks combined are so cohesive and consistent that the larger artistic statement is the album at large, not any individual song. i mean, how many people can relate to loving break my soul much more within the context of the album than when it was first released as a single? these songs aren’t meant to be isolated.
this album is insane because it’s addictive. like, i can’t listen to anything else without craving at least 2 or 3 tracks from renaissance
never been a Beyoncé stan, I liked some of her music and thought she was a phenomenal performer, but this album turned me into an obsessive fan that would pay fortune to see her live
So the outro “rap” of Heated would be called “Chanting” which is a term used within the Vogue/ Ballroom scene. It clearly shows she has done her homework. I personally think it was an amazing touch to Heated. Also, the one aspect you forgot to incorporate is the dedication to Ballroom culture. Pure Honey is for the Gworls n Gays.
‘Alien Superstar’ is one of the best songs she’s EVER released imo.
4 to Self titled to Lemonade to Renaissance. What an amazing album run.
You know the album is good when the comments are actually talking about it
7:44
Despite Heated being my least favorite track at the beginning, that outtro is possibly one of my favorite moments of the record. Her calling out everyone that calls her “overrated” is just a cherry on top for yet another legacy defining record
Easily a 9/10 after 8 listens. She embodied the intention of each track and the overall hollistic experience that the album gives. It may sound "just a vibe and fun" album but it's just as intricate as Lemonade with all the subtle and in your face homages and production. LOVE IT.
Renaissance is what Honestly Nevermind tried to be but failed miserably
I’m surprised so many people don’t like the HEATED rap commentary at the end.
In a world where labels are pressuring artists to increase streams by making short songs, craving view tiktok songs, etc Beyonce comes through with a mainstream artistic statement. It’s so impressive. She’s not afraid to make a 6 minute disco pop groove of a song that is breathtaking while also making a hyperpop leaning track that yes could’ve went a bit further but the fact that it made the album and is as good as it is just shows the effort that this album has to create a masterpiece. AG Cook was robbed from being mentioned in this review just sayin
A shame you didn’t love Pure/Honey as much as I did. I felt like it was one of the most ambitious tracks that certainly paid off and one of the most blatant homages to ballroom/queer culture that Beyonce was so inspired by. It’s been my number one from this project since my first listen and I can’t see it changing!
god. seeing a comment section like this
Virgos groove is one of the best songs in beyonces discography. And this is coming from someone who has heard every beyonce album
Hard disagree on I'm That Girl. That's one of my favorites purely because of how much of a bold, ominous tone setter of an intro the track is, not to mention the immaculate beat switch in the latter half.
