Classic. Never got the hate for this album

Nothing is garbage about those tracks

They hate black women

This album is better than Anti

Possibly

Classic tho

Let me see what else dropped that day so I can put the first one above it

Great album, but not up there like that to me.
love for queen b tho

beyonce verzuz fivio foreign to settle this

nah but the album is cool, not really rockin w the fake scandal promo s*** tho

Is op new user?

Only started seeing him few months ago

her strongest album statement to date imo and All Night is one of her greatest records. not to mention the film/visuals.

I’ve been here since the beginning

what an interesting perspective.

do I need to explain how a heavier rock song and an alt country song are jarring on album otherwise made up of somewhat traditional Beyoncé pop songs? Freedom feels jarring to me too but that’s prolly just personal preference

I swear this forum gets me tight each and everyday

remember doing a couple bags and watching all these videos til about 10am

haven’t gone back to it in years

the only beyonce album i fw

havent played it in quite some time tho

Song came out great

anti the one with jarring transitions and got a few trash songs like woo

And pose

it’s weird people dislike this album or beyonce herself ktt is sure something

i don’t count that song cos it’s a deluxe song but jesus it sucks

lemonade as a whole may be "jarring" when put beside the rest of Bey's catalog, but in my opinion it's her most cohesive work yet. those songs are all held together by a common thread and thematically it connects wonderfully. tracks like don't hurt yourself and freedom are filled with rage and fury, so the music naturally reflects that.

would it be more or less jarring to you if she fully embraced her Texan and made an entire country project? would your feelings be the same?

I think it would depend. I know she said that song was based in her country Texas roots, but I have a hard time buying the authenticity when I’m not aware of her making that kind of music before or after working w FJM. Same deal with the jack white one.

It would be less jarring on a country album tho, and I honestly don’t know enough about Beyoncé to speak on her personal history w the genre

I also have a hard time buying Justin timberlake’s country roots album for reference. even taylors folk album feels forced despite her well documented country origins.
