Nov 12, 2022Esse álbum é conceitual, é o significado de perfeição. É uma obra prima!! Os sons cativantes, os toques, as melodias, além da altas críticas sociais e os visuais. É uma álbum que te mostra a realidade, é esclarecedor, é monumental!
-
Feb 7, 2023Facilmente top 3 melhores álbuns do século. Que álbum Beyoncé, que álbum.
Como diria Adele "só monumental Beyoncé, SO MONUMENTAL" -
Aug 28, 2023OBRA DE ARTE!!! melhor album da bey junto com o Renaissance. A produção é perfeita, os visuais são os mais profundos da carreira e as referências são insanas.
-
May 2, 2016Creative, bold, cohesive, innovative. Visually I would give the album a 10, but I took off a point from all the spoken word interludes that could have been avoided. Although the album took 72 writers/producers and Beyonce acted more along the lines of a Musical Director - it still produced some of the most interesting music of the year. The production is top notch crisp and to the point.

May 11, 2017Lemonade is a genre bending album that tells the struggle of a relationship dealing with infidelity, from grief to anger and reconciliation this album does something very few are able to do... tell a story.
-
Aug 25, 2020This is a great album that shows Beyoncé at the top of her game with many great guest starts from Jack White to Kendrick Lamar Beyoncé shows what it is to be black and powerful.

Jun 14, 2016Lemonade hits with visceral force, stemming from her celebrity status as an icon and the brutal truth that she is a pained human being. With that said, her latest effort is nearly perfect, blending atmospheric melodies with heartbreaking lyrics. This will surely go down in the history books.

May 2, 2016I just don't like "Formation" song of this album. The rest of the album is great and amazing, people say Beyonce is old but her music is never get older and forgettable. So if you want good music, just buy this album
-
Apr 25, 2016Interesting sound. Worthy lyrics. Strong lyrics. Bravo, Beyonce!
I am pleased to give 910 to this beautiful album! "Lemonade" justified all hopes that I had. -
Apr 28, 2016I'm not a fan of Beyoncé but i'm really in love with this album. Love her voice, the emotion she put on it. No doubt one of the best albums this year.
-
Apr 28, 2016I changed my mine. After listening to this record a second time, I realized it's actually pretty damn great. She's taking risks in both her sound and lyrics that no other pop artist is making in this generation.

Aug 31, 2016"The album of the year", nothing is more appropriate for this masterpiece than that. Here we can see why Beyoncé is supposed to become the most powerful singer ever: amazing vocals, meaningful lyrics and a mix of styles that matches pretty well. yes "QueenBey", you are here to sl(t)ay!
-
May 26, 2016Fascinating lyrics, crazy and slow beats, "Lemonade" don´t provide only an innovative fun, but it shows a great visual and musical concept that impresses. A little better then its predecessor, this album deserve its share of praises.

Apr 28, 2016Siguiendo la excelencia desde su ultimo trabajo homónimo, "BEYONCE" demuestra todo el talento que tiene en este álbum majestuosamente creado sin lugar a duda uno de los mejores trabajos.
Entre los puntos mas altos del álbum yo diría que están Hold Up y Don't Hurt Yourself. -

Apr 25, 2016I'm not one to like Beyonce, but this album proved me wrong. Well most of it anyway. I like most of the songs but my favorites are 6 Inch and Don't Hurt Yourself. Sandcastles also has amazing, raw vocals, actually gave me chills. I would say this is a compilation of musical tracks but nope, this is art.

Jun 1, 2020A great story. Lemonade is the best of the best on Beyoncé discography. My favourite tracks: Sorry, Hold Up and of course, Formation.
-
Oct 23, 2016Beyoncé explorou além do seu campo musical e fez um trabalho impecável. Um dos melhores de 2016 e sempre com o fator surpresa. O trabalho visual só complementa as faixas e finaliza com um seguimento incrível.
-
Aug 23, 2020A masterpiece, especially for Beyoncé. It does not conform to so many of the ideologies of an album, and in such a profound way.
So much of the sheer musicality, story-telling and visuals engrave Lemonade as one of the greatest albums of all time! -

Jul 20, 2017This is exactly how you do an R&B album, uncompromising with emotion. The album has a great production and awesome songs. Literally the best album of B to date. Really great
Favorite songs: 6 Inch and Freedom -
Apr 5, 2017Another masterpiece from the queen. Less vocals but a lot of personality ! She shows her powerful voice but also her sweetest part. Loved it (even if i prefer when she shows her amazing vocals)
-
Jun 18, 2017When a beautiful where one of the most famous & independent woman shows her strength. Communicating her pain through "Sandcastles", anger through "Hold Up", "Don't Hurt Yourself" and "Sorry". Beyoncé didn't let her fans down, she gave huge songs like "Freedom" and "Formation". The album also comes with a full movie that shows that she is a visionary artist.

Sep 5, 2018Honestly very close to perfect. It's emotional, catchy, liberating, furious, sad, joyful, without ever seeming noncohesive. Each song has its own style, genre, etc. but the consistent narrative running throughout brings it all together.
-
Jul 4, 2018Not worth all the hype, but has some good tracks. Loved the visual album, it definitely uplifted the whole album and brought out the narrative.
Highlights: Freedom, Daddy Lessons, Don't Hurt Yourself (feat. Jack White), All Night. -
Mar 1, 2020There is no doubt that 'Lemonade' is Beyoncé's strongest album so far. Every track has its own identity and with this album Beyoncé made even clearer that she still rules the industry (alongside some other badass artists) and still can reinvent herself.

-
May 4, 2019A surprisingly varied album, "Lemonade" offers a wide number of sounds and styles, that somehow manages to get along with each other. The album is powerful and has a controversial back story in it that Beyoncé herself took the time to tell and explore among the listeners. Standout tracks include "Pray You Catch Me", "Don’t Hurt Yourself", "6 Inch", "Daddy Lessons", "Freedom" and "All Night".
-
May 26, 2019Através de uma narrativa íntima, confessional e instigante, Beyoncé apresenta um trabalho plural e bem construído. Lemonade abriga as melhores composições da carreira da artista.
-
May 30, 2020Perfeito, com 4 anos de existência é uns dos melhores álbuns na atualidade, tem suas melhores qualidade e Beyoncé acertou no conceito, obviamente a música que se mais destaca é formation por seu diferencial, claro que todas as músicas são únicas e boas.
-
Feb 2, 2020an incredible album, full of feminine power, Beyoncé's voice is unique and she knows how to use it as well as possible.
-
Jan 3, 2020Muita militância, porém pouco comprometimento. Beyoncé entregou um álbum extremamente impecável e se aventurou em um conceito nunca abordado abertamente por artitas do cunho da própria. Mas a narrativa se perde entre as confusões da faixa

Aug 1, 2020Some songs transcend human explanation and make you feel like you're levitating. The background vocals carry the songs as expected from Beyoncé. Every song is a message and ties perfectly to the accompanying music video. Visually stunning.

Sep 24, 2021Great album by Beyoncé. Probably her best If I might add. Every song feels complete with something new to each track giving it a different vibe but as well as maintaining the message throughout the album. She continues to get better and dominate the game by releasing music better than her last.

May 2, 2016I really like LEMONADE. I like how she tastes genres she has never done before such as country or rock. However I don't think it is that consistent as her previous album, which is my favorite album of the decade so far.
-
Oct 21, 2016Empowering album. Beyonc'e proves one more time why she is Queen B. She has a great voice, and is able of many things with it. I just not like some sounds in it. But I think this is a great album

May 10, 2016Beyoncé's Lemonade is her most experimental album to date, and follows the current trend where mainstream artists infuse underground elements into their sound. Lemonade is bold, colorful and has its pop appeal, even that covered in different types of music
Best Tracks: Formation, Don't Hurt Yourself (feat. Jack White), Pray You Catch Me -
Apr 25, 2016Beyonce's best work yet, this has turned her into an icon to a potential legend. This is one of the albums along with her self titled album that will make her go down as one of the best of this generation.
-
Apr 25, 2016
-
Apr 25, 2016O álbum é ótimo, mas seria muito melhor se fosse apenas um extended play com as 5 melhores músicas (Daddy Lessons, Sorry, Don't Hurt Yourself, 6 Inch e Freedom). Beyoncé insistiu em baladas cansativas sobre levar chifre do Shrek-Z e não ajudou muito. Bom filme e boa música, só precisa ter caráter como artista e escrever as próprias músicas.

Apr 26, 2016a great album, with diversity and good collabs, but it's way more enjoyable as the "visual album", then you have a history and you get the real point of the album, by it self it's a good album, but it isn't the great album every body it's loving, it's just good and completely different from her previous works

Apr 25, 2016there are songs amazing and good; it's an excellent work!. "Lemonade" is a great comeback to pop music and of course, Beyoncé...
The major drawback is the quantity of co-writers...that is strange and gives to understand..."Beyoncé needs huge number of people to be noticed and she doesn't write her songs without the help of others (Jay-Z -

Apr 29, 201678/100. Definitely a good album, but I don't see how it was able to garner a 93 metascore currently... Best songs are "Pray You Catch Me", "Sandcastles", "Freedom" and "All Night". Worst song on the album is "Sorry".
-
Apr 29, 2016Very solid album. This is the first time I have listened to a Beyonce album in its entirety and I have to say I'm impressed. Particular favourites are Pray You Catch Me, Sandcastles and All Night.
-
May 21, 2016Beyoncé's Lemonade represents grief in the best way possible. It empowers, it inspires, and it also gives attention to social and political issues. As poppy as Beyoncé's music tends to be, you can see this albums risks in instrumentation. The second track, "Hold up" shows this type of risk.

Apr 25, 2016The songs talk to each other, have a nice tune, and sounds like something light and fun. The album's concept is very important and the singer made the songs within that theme seems honest. Given the proposal album she deserves something like 8.7

Jan 14, 2017A masterful record from Beyonce and her (large) team of songwriters, lyrically covering the pain of infidelity over a plethora of different musical genres.
-
Feb 16, 2017I have never been heavily invested in Beyoncé until this album. Although she has stepped outside of her typical style, the effort that she puts into it has given returns of sure quality. To say that this is not deserving of acclaim would be a slap in the face of anyone who owns a pair of ears.
-
Apr 25, 2019I've waited a long time to listen to this and i finally did. The album is honestly better than what i expected it to be. I found 9 out of the 13 listenable and amusing, found some beautiful gems along the way.
-
Jul 25, 2020Formation and daddy lessons are my favorite songs powerful !I think lemonade is better than many black singer works

Mar 3, 2023It's really great. Not something I would always listen to, but each individual song is so well thought out and amazing! I think if you look at all the songs together, it shows such a beautiful picture of finding courage and strength in pain and suffering. I really love "Pray You Catch Me" and "Formation".
-
Jan 3, 2019Very different to her previous albums, and as a whole I'm not really a fan. There are a few individual highlights that make it good, and I like the fact she has done something different.
-
Apr 27, 2016Is it me or it's universal acclaimed just because it talks about black women?
Good album anyways.

May 10, 2016Lemonade is one of Beyonce's best work ever. Its got a deep meaning in it and is a piece of art. There are a few hiccups/disliked things about it, but overall it's a good album.
-
May 10, 2016Lemonade is a nice album. I love Formation and Hold up but there are songs that are just boring. I think it's a little bit overrated because the music critics gave 93 points. I think it should get like 73 or 74.

Jun 23, 2016Beyonce, the album, is better than this one, but this sure got some quality, and she, like Rihanna, got to a point where she doesn't need to bring mainstream things to be great.

May 16, 2019It’s Beyoncé’s best album. Overall a solid album but don’t read too much into it. This isn’t a classic album that’s going to be remembered for years to come in all honesty. A decent 7. Nothing more nothing less.
-
Jun 15, 2019
-
Apr 11, 2020It's quite good. Freedom, Don't Hurt Yourself and 6 Inch are top songs in my opinion. I really liked this album but none of these songs are as good as Beyonce's best songs like 7/11 and Halo, but that doesn't mean the album is bad, it's just not the best work of Beyonce.
-
Nov 19, 2021such a beautiful and strong album. One of her best albums. Love the production, meaningful lyrics, and great vocal. But after this, I hope she stops making "race-inspired" lyrics.
