    Where do I even start. This album is an emotional masterpiece that fans have been craving for years. Her career has truly taken off with her past two albums.

Her 4Where do I even start. This album is an emotional masterpiece that fans have been craving for years. Her career has truly taken off with her past two albums. Beyoncé was originaldly though of as a singles artist with her first three studio albums, releasing mega-hits like Crazy in Love, possibly the song of the 2000s, Naughty Girl, Baby Boy, Irreplaceable, Single Ladies, and Halo. Her 4 album had an obscure indecisiveness with its release and the choice of singles, but it was a great album nonetheless. BEYONCÉ was a time of self-discovery for her artistic style.

    Now, with Lemonade, Beyoncé has set the bar with a visual album accompanied by a short film. It explains the treatment of black women in society, specifically in marriage and other relationships with men. It begins with a telling ballad, Pray You Catch Me, which smoothly transitions to a Hold Up, a song influenced with a certain jazz/funk sound. Don't Hurt Yourself features Jack White and shows Beyoncé at her most violent in years. Her most explicit (language) song on the album features a rock quality she has never used before.

    In Sorry, she doesn't care about her man. She is busy living life with her ladies. 6 Inch is the strange song that seems to stand out as a radio hit. It is less emotionally charged, but highlights the value of women and their wages. The Weeknd also has a great verse on the song. Daddy Lessons is a strange, but catchy, country themed song about her father and what he taught her in Houston (cause she's a Texas Bama). Love Drought and Sandcastles serve as the slow ballads, which then lead into Forward, a short song mainly featuring James Blake. Freedom, featuring Kendrick Lamar, is, in my opinion, the message of the album. It communicates Beyoncé 's ideas as well as having a Black Power message in the Kendrick verse. All Night is truly about forgiveness, as in the film, Beyoncé is seen with Jay Z and they seem happy. Formation closes out the album with amazing power and a tough beat line that will make it a smash hit.

    This album tells a story that many artists cannot achieve. The diversity in sound ranges from 90s New Orleans funk to country to synth ballads. This is an exceptional album that will garner high accolades at the music awards over the next year. The only problem is that Beyoncé might have to outdo herself on her next album, whenever that may be. Lemonade, thus far, is Beyoncé's most complete and emotional album to date, and fans can only appreciate the artistry that she has provided.    … Expand

    When talking about Beyonce, Prince once said that she would meet full musical peak if she learned piano. She shows that talent off here with the emotional "Sandcastles". In the wake of Prince's death, Beyonce's LEMONADE simply reminds the public that there is still art to be made, and that one day she will be another legend whose death will create a deep hole in the musical community.When talking about Beyonce, Prince once said that she would meet full musical peak if she learned piano.

    The visual components of LEMONADE should all be praised, as all could sweep the VMAs in essentially every category if the award show actually had significant merit.

    Beyond that, Beyonce's voice-overs provide an artistic and emotional depth that has yet to be matched by modern artists.

    In contrast to Self-Titled, which came off as Beyonce trying hard to pretend that she isn't a try-hard (see: Haunted's "probably won't make no money off this" knowing damn well she would make money), LEMONADE is Beyonce at her most honest, open, and emotional. She defies genre and defies expectation as she pushes a body of work that is worthy of all the acclaim she has received. Art takes effort, and Beyonce has produced a masterpiece here.    … Expand

A very emotional album.. which these pop stars are releasing nowadays like Nicki Minaj's album and Selena Gomez;s as well. The track with Kendrick Lamar called FREEDOM deserves an honourable mention. Its hands down the best track on the record followed by Sandcastles. The collab with The Weeknd also is a must listen to track aswell. However the other collaborations were not that good. Was expecting a Nicki Minaj collaboration on this record aswell. Probably the only thing that was disappointing. But overall WELL DONE Beyoncè!… Expand

However, she proved me wrong and blew through every expectations I had for Lemonade. The album is very cohesive yet each song managed to have their own characteristcs and distinct sounds. I can feel her emotions through such amazing vocal performances, with her voice displaying incredible versatility, to the extent that she could manipulate her voice to different sounds with ease yet still sounding raw and retaining the Beyoncé trademark. However, it's not her vocal performance, nor her genre-hopping flawlessness that made Lemonade such a masterpiece. It's how the album as a whole could tell a story with a vividness that is comparable to a movie and how the album can manage to convey such array of emotions in just 46 minutes. The album is not the most radio-friendly but that's one of the things that truly made Lemonade such a jewel on Beyoncé's crown. Lemonade shows an artist that is brave enough to break the rules and do whatever she wants to do, say whatever she wants to say and let others feel what she feels, and that is what art is supposed to do. To make people feel what the artist feels. Lemonade is Beyoncé best album to date, and could even turn out as her magnum opus.… Expand

    Boring, useless and far from Beyonce's signature songs like "Single Ladies", "Crazy in Love" and "Halo". Might be innovative but is by far Beyonce's most challenging album and this leads to the desperate try to create something new, not good or catchy or emotional, but just new. And that's kinda bad.

    El sexto trabajo de estudio de Beyoncé nos trae una propuesto que si bien en su obra anterior "Beyoncé" ya se había experimentado. Ahora nos acontece algo totalmente innovador.
    Con un mensaje fuerte, violento, irónico e incluso crudo. Se homenajea no sólo a la mujer negra. Si no a todo lo que representa la historia negra en U.S.A.
    Aparentemente el rumbo que ha tomado la música pop desde el año pasado con influencias en el R&B, en el rock y pasando a una instrumentalización más orgánica con toques de pop, ha impactado demasiado en la manera de hacer música actualmente.
    Discos tales como ANTi, Mind Of Mine, Beauty Behind The Madness y los Buzz Singles de Drake... Etc han acarreado a los productores a llevar a este ritmo cómo lo comercial. A pesar de esto LEMONADE se escucha y se siente veraz.
    Beyoncé demuestra una capacidad vocal como ningún otro cantante femenino. Experimenta, juega, desgarra la voz.
    Respecto a la producción músical se puede notar una percusión muy particular en el disco al igual que el uso de cuerdas y las influencias de orquesta que se notan en el uso de violines. Pero el disco va en incremento. Comienza con una producción músical ligera y termina con producciones grandes como FREEDOM y ALL NIGHT.
    Respecto a la pélicula...
    Se divide en capítulos que dan a entender que la película es eso... un trabajo fílmico. Que nos va contando una historia y para el Film las música que se extraen de LEMONADE forman parte de el como una banda sonora.
    Sin duda un trabajo que marcará tendencia en la música popular y que le dará el sello a la música comercial durante el periodo que dure el R&B y el Rap/Hip Hop en los charts de Billboard.    … Expand

Production is most certainly another highlight of this album, with so many highs and genres that it becomes hard to place the album according to one genre. Lemonade, has so many different sounds, but flows together almost effortlessly. This is truly a masterpiece.… Expand

    The word "masterpiece" gets thrown a lot when reviewing albums, but it's so appropriate in this case. Lemonade really is a masterpiece and her best body of work to date. In this album, Beyoncé speaks about several topics, such as black rights, relationships, and womanhood. The reason why I love this album so much is because she talks about topics that I can relate to.

    I think this is Beyonce's best album because she uses different genres and not pop and R&B. This is a masterpiece by Beyonce and she uses her platform to talk about black lives matter and that's what I love about her she thinks hard about the other songs on her album and not just one like a single. She puts her all into every one of those songs.

    Lemonade é um álbum completamente diferente de tudo que Beyoncé já fez. É pessoal, fala sobre uma possível traição, mostrando a sua fúria. Mas também é político, mostra a sua insatisfação contra a brutalidade e a violência sofrida por pessoas negras. Beyoncé prova mais uma vez que não está para brincadeira, ela fez não somente uma obra-prima, mas está fazendo a revolução.

    This review contains spoilers, click expand to view. Her most emotional, self-righteous & emancipating album to date, in a summary this album tells a tale of pure love, pain and and rage.

    To start on this album we'll speak solely on the music

    Pray You Catch Me is the moment Bey has waited so long for, the cry for help & it's sung and structured in a way that can feel that she can't find a way to say it so she hopes to be caught in the moment and start from there.

    Hold Up takes a note from the powerful woman Bey is, this is the 'Sasha Fierce' of the album a 'i'm the best you're ever going to get in such a jazz soul vibe, this is the narration of Bey's love for Jay, a testimony of 'you're doing me dirty and I won't let this s#*t run'.

    Don't Hurt Yourself is the vocally assisted Jack White song that shows the hard to forgive side of Bey, a Neo-Soul Rock Anthem, 'i am the fire breathing dragon' describes this song perfectly. This song is rage + revel! A moment where she let loose and said what she had to say, this is personally the greatest battle cry song she's ever done.

    Sorry is the ascending moment of this album, this song shows a moment in which she gives herself a break and realises this is best for her, not the other way around. This is a self loving, heartbroken anthem on doing what's best for you. This is where the concept of Single Ladies meets Angel.

    6 Inch is the Strippers Hymn, assisted by vocals by the alluring Weeknd. This is the anthem for the woman about her money, this is for the working woman + the woman about her coin & an owner of her sexuality! a smoker jam.

    Daddy Lessons is a more acoustic vibe for Bey, held together strongly by her flawless vocals she gives a sweet serenading moment that tells us a story of how she keeps her head high, due to what her father taught her This is a spiritual country song, a lesson she learnt from her father to be stronger than her counterpart.

    Love Drought is as Daddy Lessons shows a turn to healing. This is a transcending song that reminds you slyly of Mine due to the falling vibe. This is the kintsukuroi moment of the album, the healing! The warm embrace of dominant submission. To willingly forgive and love again.

    Sandcastles is an ode to her love for Jay and the foundation they've created This reminisces what is built and how it is easily destroyed, this is vocally shaking and so vulnerable.

    Forward is a interlude so haunting, it channels the anxiety of her heartbreak through James Blake truly powerful. Resonating a male voice of solace a true moment that resonates in the Visual Album. A beautiful cinematic moment.

    FREEDOM is the 'IM BLACK AND IM HERE - WE MAY NOT BE TRULY FREE BUT IM FREE. AND IM HERE.' Kendrick serves an open letter on his views on the pain his people endure.

    ALL NIGHT is the healing, this is the answer to questions asked in the opening of this album, this is the moment love came back + love will start again, it's a magical experience.

    Formation as you already know, is the cultured moment that stands out to the rest of her singles in previous albums.

    As a Visual Album, tied together with scenery that morphs into each other + sealed with beautiful spoken word that tells a tale as you watch one being created the monologues grasp you and teach you the mind of a woman, the mind bent with anger, envy and goes even thorough as she taps into moments that resonate black culture and the love for her race.

    Truly a captivating creation that was daring and experimental while smartly formed and highly recommend this as it is 1 of the greatest albums of this millennium.

    It is the moments of heartbreak and journey of womanhood + her journey as a black woman, her pain, her loss + her healing. EVERYTHING.    … Expand

    É um álbum maravilhoso. Um dos melhores que já escutei, senão o melhor. Se não ganhar pelo menos um Grammy sequer, já saberemos que foi comprado.
    E atenção: eu sou branco, mas esse álbum não foi feito para nós. Vejo alguns brancos bostejando nas criticas, falando mal. Entenda: nem tudo é voltado pra nós, por mais que a sociedade seja muito assim. Então vá a merda se for criticar essa arte.
    Porque é isso que esse álbum é: pura arte.    … Expand

    This is by far and without doubt Beyonce's best album to date, and probably ever to be honest (let's hope not). The visual is astonishingly beautiful, the songs fit perfectly together to tell the tale of finding oneself after troubled times, in this case after betrayal. Many genres are incorporated in the album, which is something quite difficult to do without making a mess: hereThis is by far and without doubt Beyonce's best album to date, and probably ever to be honest (let's hope not). The visual is astonishingly beautiful, the songs fit perfectly together to tell the tale of finding oneself after troubled times, in this case after betrayal. Many genres are incorporated in the album, which is something quite difficult to do without making a mess: here everything flows perfectly, modern/futuristic pop, rock, country, soul and others prove Beyonce's abilities and make her one of our generation's most important pop star; a true artist.… Expand

    Lyrically, it's Beyoncé's best piece of work by far. Visually it's beautiful, groundbreaking and well crafted. Great songs, well produced and Bey's vocals are everything. It's empowering, it's daring, it's different, it's diverse and consistent.

    An album very well produced, overflowing political messages, covers reggae, country and rock aggressively and faint when necessary, Beyonce wrote and produced ALL the songs from the CD "Lemonade", an album that manages to surpass its predecessor in greatness, it is perfect listen to this album beginning to end, especially Hold Up, Daddy Lessons and Sand Castles.

    It's Beyonce's Best Album. The Grammy of Album of the Year have a win. Rihanna never will made a album like this. And the best song is HOLD UP. readys

    Lemonade hits hard. Beyonce has chosen to portray herself like this, and those choices are bold, powerful and at times, properly shocking. [#361, p.110]

    Never short on vocal confidence, here, she trades divadom for arresting, unconventional shapes. [Jul 2016, p.69]

    By effortlessly topping her own best work. Lemonade now sets a new standard for cross-genre collaboration.
