    Greatest album of all time. Best album of 2016. Best album of the 10th decade. Best album of the century. Best album of the millennium.

    The transitions and message behind every track, you are taken for the universe and the place she wants you to be. The visuals are so perfect, I think it is the best album ever made.

Perfect storytelling through out the album as Beyoncé navigates infidelity within her marriage making it relatable to a wide audience of people seeking guidance in their own relationship, all while paying homage to the black southern culture she grew up around. The production on this album is incredible especially on "Love Drought" which is one of her most experimental tracks from the vocals, production and lyrics as we see a side of Beyoncé that we don't often see; not a girl power enthusiast we often see in her previous songs, but a woman feeling vulnerable as she has ultimately been betrayed… Expand

    Lemonade sigue siendo a mi parecer hasta hoy día la cima artística que ha llegado a tocar Beyoncé.

    Esse 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!

    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]
