J. Posted April 25, 2016 Share Posted April 25, 2016 I've heard about 6 songs and they're all either a 9/10 or 10/10 (Daddy Lessons, Freedom, Sandcastles, 6in. Sub, Don't Hurt Yourself, Pray You Catch Me). She slayed. 1 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
kennita jo Posted April 25, 2016 Share Posted April 25, 2016 It is and it's not trying to be Vulnicura. I just mentioned those two albums because they are albums where artists were being honest about their emotions which is what Beyoncé was doing here. The difference is that for whatever reason Limonada doesn't feel as honest nor as raw as those two albums to me. Even the production doesn't feel as interesting. I need to give it a few more spins but for now it's just meh No not at all. Vulnicura is far more interesting sonically but I Never Learn was not the business, Whorehay. Lemonade resonated with me on a very personal level so maybe I'm just partial to it. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rock & Roll Hall of Game Posted April 25, 2016 Share Posted April 25, 2016 Well......Freedom was great.Was? It's okay.. One of the better tracks.This album doesn't have many "hits" to it. I'm glad she dove deeper Beyonce decided not to lie about her writing on this album. Her name isn't listed first on every song. I appreciate her honesty 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I appreciate her honesty It's literally the only standout track to me, I feel like folks overhyped the music. The movie I enjoyed (not her reading the poetry), it made alot of the music I didn't like or forgot interesting, but I ended up forgetting alotI noticed that too....soooo many names listed lol.I appreciate she's finally and gradually learning to emote more, still obviously not a strength, but she's trying, and I appreciate that with this all, it geniuinely feels like she's trying to match her hype, but I feel like her videos did, but the music.......not sooo much Edited April 25, 2016 by jarrylf Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I like most of the album but only bc there's nothing else out... I find it hard to believe Hold Up has literally 15 writers I hope she sampled someone on that track Her videos were blah..

BlackCat77 Posted April 26, 2016 Share Posted April 26, 2016 Right? Since when is it cute to meddle in someone's marriage? There was another chick who made a song called "sorry Mrs Carter" or something like that. What happened to her? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

bu. Posted April 26, 2016 Author Share Posted April 26, 2016 (edited) I'm shocked it's sitting at 94 right now on Metacritic. I thought there would be a backlash which would include horrible reviews. Slay with the acclaim. Piers Morgan tried to drag her yesterday but people clapped back. This post by Jamelia (UK two-hit wonder) was beautiful.

No, not at all. That's one of my least favs tbh Her voice doesn't work on a track like that to me. My favs are Sorry, Hold Up and All Night. Daddy Lessons would be GREAT if it had a male voice singing it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
