This is basically her "artistic" way of saying the same shit she's been saying for her whole career isn't it?
>>
>>64307098
Beyonce's been bleaching her skin and essentially 'unblacking' herself for years. She stopped recently and became all about that black empowerment. Who knows why. Wouldn't happen to coincide with #BLM and black rights becoming fashionable in mainstream media, would it?
>>
What's the song that samples Animal Collective?
>>
Beyonce is bad, everyone knows she's bad, don't let yourself get baited to the bump limit this time

>>64307079
She is right, yeah. The white girl has got swept up in the Beyonce hysteria, mistakenly thinks Beyonce songs are actually good, and then (rightfully) gets shot down when she covers them because it's actually 100% about race symbolism

>>64307187
I was just referring to the fact that her mother isnt black. She's even lighter than beyonce is.

This is far and wide her best work. It's a pleasant listen whether you directly relate to it or not.
>>
>>64307234
>>64307187
>muh conspiracy theories
>>
>>64307079
Most of this album is about relationships. It's typical Beyonce. Where are people getting the idea that this is a political album? Even on her 'political' song Formation, there's about two lines vaguely about race and the rest is "I slay/I'm a queen/yaas".
>>
>>64307234
>>64307098
>what is creole
>>
>>64307243
how is that a conspiracy? her mother is in fact lighter than beyonce and beyonce is already light as shit.

Her mother was born in Texas to Agnès Derouen, a dressmaker and Lumis Albert Beyincé, a longshoreman.[1] Her ancestry is African, Native American, and French.

what percentage of each yet to be determined but either way that seems to indicate the her mom is mulatto so therefore so is beyonce
>>
>>64307262
>"I slay/I'm a queen/yaas"
this is also about race

>>64307243
that's not what conspiracy means

It's a concept album and the album page literally states that. You're taking it at face value because "lol its Beyoncé".
>>
>>64307282
Because you're too ignorant to understand that your skin color can be light and you can still be every bit of black as a dark person. This is basic shit.
>>
>>64307313
>your skin color can be light and you can still be every bit of black as a dark person.
yeah fucking right

ok lets establish a point of reference. Is Obama black?
>>
Why are black people so unflinchingly entitled? Why do white people and "NBPOC" enable them so much? How can an album be "only for black people" when it was released to the general public? Why is this generation so cucked beyond belief?
>>
>>64307276
ok I'll accept that.
>>
>>64307313
he didn't say anything to contradict that. All he said was that it's profitable for Beyonce to look black

>>
>>64307338
>"NBPOC
I fucking hate all the tumblr acronyms. And it's such a shitty way of defining yourself. How can a, say, Indian person accept the label of NBPOC? It's just ignoring your culture and history and defining yourself by not being black. These labels divide race and culture into big monolithic blocks. It's annoying.

This

My friend out of nowhere sent me a pic of herself in the hospital with a dislocated shoulder.

I ask her what happened.

>"my bf beat me up"

When I go see her, I ask her to be honest and tell me if he's ever hit her before.

>"no this is the first time"

In the back of my mind, I know this is complete bullshit. I suggest that she join a DV support group.

>"No, I don't want everyone to think I'm like all of the other DV victims.

>mfw a few weeks later she says that he actually hit her about 8 times (probably a lie, too) since the time that I knew her (4 years)

The best part? The majority of her family never liked the guy. I never even meet him, but from what she used to say about him I knew he was complete garbage.

Despite all of that, she doesn't understand why that happened, but she now thinks all men are dogs and that she'll never open herself like that all over.

Do you really think black people call them these things? I think the point her was making is that whenever whites get into something, they steal it and try to claim they are the originators or the best.

So is it actually good or is it just "I want to be edgy but not too edgy for normies" like her last album was?

I'd argue that it's more "I want to be edgy but not too edgy for normies" than her last album was. It's undeniable even if you like the album
>>
This is her best work easily, but her self-titled is my favorite. The 1-hour long concept video or whatever you want to call puts much more of it into perspective and i think it should be seen before listening to the album in full. Khalil Joseph kills it.
>>
>>64308337
No. 13 tracks on tidal, with the concept video listed as the 13th track so those uploads are correct (technically).
>>
>>64307079
>>64307289
I love how much you hear about race being irrelevant and how racism is groundless since we're all humans e.t.c., and then people come out with statements like this. So race doesn't mean anything, but you can't fully appreciate black music if you're white? You can't have it both ways

It's not even about this. But now all I see is Rihanna with some black woman activist shit thrown in.

Only Formation deals with that. The rest of her anger seems to be directed at black men in particular.

most of those people got credited because she borrowed like 1 line from them

>>64309410

Those guys are all on one or two songs, for a one line credit. The rest is black writers.
>>
>>64309422

>>
>>64309348

LOL and I'm tired of people calling it "murder" when someone is chimping out in public and the police are called, and then they chimp out on the police and get shot to death. I also love how this whole movement got kickstarted by the Mike Brown situation - a bunch of armchair forensic analysts decided that a lil boy was gunned down by a KKK member, when in reality it was a fairly large human being trying to take a police officer's gun after acting like a total idiot.

>>64309457
>>64309445

>Hi /mu/! I have no fucking idea how pop music works!!!!

Bahahaha it's a shame anyone thinks that Beyonce actually writes this shit. There are teams of people pitching song ideas and using formulas to create arrangements, she doesn't have to do anything other than show up and say "yeah that one sounds good" and then yell into a microphone a little bit.

guarantee you jay-z will make a response album before the end of the year (tidal exclusive).

they've been rumored to be working on a collab project for the past 2 years, this is probably it.

Boots, one of the producers, said that it's just the lyric "she too smart to crave material things". They accidentally paraphrased the AnCo lyric when writing the song and didn't want to get sued. There's no actual musical sample.

>>
>>64311383
It's more than a team of people. It's many more composers than you'd have in a group or band. It's a group of producers hired to make the most commercial music possible.

Compare it to a pop album by a truly talented artist (Björk or Ariel Pink, for example).

Creative freedom matters.

Atkins also mentions that "around 1980 I had a tape of nothing but Kraftwerk, Telex, Devo, Giorgio Moroder and Gary Numan, and I'd ride around in my car playing it.

Marcel went on Lemonade's release page on RYM and called it a horrible album and the worst release of the year.

Somebody responded with: "no shade, but you're not better than anyone else for not liking mainstream pop music, actually, if you express it with that kind of attitude, it's kinda worse. If you don't understand pop music, that's fine I guess, it's not for everyone, just don't give your opinion in a way that feels insulting to those who get it. :)"

I'm a black guy, she is not wrong about who Beyonce made the album for, but she cannot tell people what they can and can't do. I believe Beyonce wants her message to reach as many people as possible, so she would encourage people from all backgrounds to cover her songs.

when will you realize that Beyonce had little to do with the music in the record?

I'm black also. Neither one of those people said that white people couldn't enjoy the music. They just wanted to state the fact that it wasn't meant for white people

Why do white people always try to take shit from us? OK many of the credited collaborators are white males, but Beyonce made it CLEAR who this piece was for. It's not that big of a deal, white people own everything else in America, just let us have our own shit.

And don't say she had "little to do with the music" just because she had other people help out with some of the writing. If a person changes one word in a song, they legally become a co-writer. Every top tier artist has other writers collaborate on their work.

>>64321159
but is it really your own shit if it was done by dozens of white men?

So she is claiming the music that was written for her by other people is meant for black woman.


So Diplo and James Blake should shut the fuck up and hush if they want to give their opinion on the music they wrote?

Fine then.

>she had other people help out with some of the writing.

You mean they wrote it and then Beyonce decided to use it or not¿
>>
>>64321285

>other people help out with some of the writing

nigga, whole fucking songs were written by the whitest guys in the industry, beats for this shit, hooks, it's all white males

>>64321159

No I disagree with the argument that white people can't cover it or even give an opinion on it. I just want everyone to see the message that she was trying to convey with it
