Apr 25, 2016This album is a gut wrenching materpiece. Some songs made me sad, some songs made me happy. Some gave me chills.
I have to admit, I miss the hits-radio friendly-dancy Beyonce, but I do appriciate her jurney as an artist, and I do think she's at her peak right now.
Standout tracks: Don't Hurt Yourself, 6 Inch, Daddy Lessons, Sandcastles, Freedom and All Night. -

Aug 30, 2016Truly outstanding, this album proves Beyoncé is right on top of the pop music scene. The album by itself is definitely one of the best by a major female artist in a very long time and the visuals that accompany are the cherry on top, who else could do what she does so effortlessly?

Jun 16, 2016This is truly an amazing album by Beyonce. The depth of emotions expressed on the album, and the various sounds explored on the album are captivating. It's one of the best albums I've heard over the last 20 years. It's a masterpiece.
-
Apr 26, 2016Lemonade is an album you can't stop listening to. Beyoncé is, without any doubt, one of the greatest entertainers ever. With this album she exposes herself to the limit and shows the world how both powerful and vulnerable she can be. Every song on this record is perfect. The film is flawless and beautiful. Lemonade is an extraordinary piece of art. Beyoncé is ART.
-
Jan 15, 2017Much, much much better album than her previous one. It's very good for listening, also music videos for some songs are absolutely perfect (Hold Up, Formation). Best songs for me are: Pray You Catch Me, Hold Up, Sorry, Daddy Lessons, Love Drought and Formation.
-
May 4, 2016This album is a perfect 10. Beyoncé's masterpiece. Anyone who tells you differently isn't of sound mind. Every song is carefully crafted, conscious and completely formed.

Aug 26, 2016Amazing album by one of the boldest female artists in the world, Beyoncé proves once again that perfection is what she's striving for, here she isn't afraid to experiment with visual and genres.
-
Apr 27, 20166 inch, Daddy Lessons, Freedom, All night - Must listen songs, perfect.
This album is incredibly good. A fantastic album form start to finish. A set of songs with a very different sound. Such great vocals and music. -
Apr 25, 2016When you're a recognized artist you can play with genres as much as you want. Beyoncé's Lemonade isn't what we expected after the anticipated single "Formation", but it's better than that. An introspective album about singer's life and a journey to everybody's deep feelings. This is Beyoncé's finest album.
-
Apr 26, 2016
-
Apr 25, 2016An album that forces the listener to have a physical and emotional response and that leave them utterly breathless. It feels instantly recognizable and at the same time is something out of this world. Beyonce is ethereal, raw and completely in control.
-
Apr 25, 2016Não deixe o samba morreeeeeeer, não deixa o samba acabar! Um samba, queridan! Melhor álbum da Beyoncé ever, essa mulher quer escrever o nome dela na história mesmo, 18 anos de carreira e ela permanece no topo. MUITO DEUSA NÉ AMORES???

Apr 25, 2016Sem palavras,
Beyonce sempre faz a espera valer por uma vida inteira.
Album eudaimonico, muito equilibrado, uma universalização dos entulhos artísticos que a cantora carrega algo longo dos anos. -
Apr 25, 2016This is her best album and thee absolute best release in music in a long time. Every song is phenomenal. No fillers. Nothing to skip. The vocals are heavenly.

Apr 25, 2016It's incredible how Beyoncé don't let her quality falling over. She always improves your own music and with Lemonade the way to join the Legendary artists is more next than ever. ICONIC QUEEN B!
-
May 1, 2016Best album of the decade so far, the structure, the way she sings... She's beyond human! There's no other artist right now that you could compare to her, she's incredible.
-
Apr 27, 2016This is by far Beyoncé's most sonically diverse, passionate and personal album. "Hold Up," "Formation" and "Freedom" especially are excellent, but all of the songs on Lemonade are wonderful.
-
May 7, 2016can't believe Queen bey did such a PERFECT album,definitely real art,can't image that how people expect the next B7 now.She better than best,stan for her forever.
-
Apr 26, 2016O álbum te leva à uma percepção diferente da música,uma mistura de ritmos e estilos que se encaixaram perfeitamente na voz da Beyoncé. Os vocais são os melhores que já escutei dela.
-
May 21, 2016Lemonade just goes from strength to strength. The album offers different sounds, but it sounds like a cohesive body of work. Beyonce shows she can do everything from singing like an angel to rap. The album shows a range of emotion that most of us have felt. The album is a classic.
-
Apr 25, 2016This is simply an amazing album. Her anger is so naked and her vocals changes in such a versatile ways. Even Adele cannot reach this level. Cannot understand if anyone question the quality of this album. This is classic and get over it you boring haters.

Nov 14, 2016Just because it's a pop album, that doesn't mean it's shallow. Lemonade is Beyoncé's most personal album to date, and her most perfectly crafted one, too. It's entertaining, powerful, full of messages and incredible. An odyssey from beginning to start.

Apr 26, 2016Best álbum of beyoncé. thats all.......................................................................................................................................................
-
Apr 26, 2016Her strongest body of work yet, lemonade is an emotional roller coaster full of anger, resentment, frustration, and sadness. The meaning behind this work of art is very important, it shows the struggles of being a black woman, specifically a wife dealing with your father and husbands infidelity and being fed up with it.
-
Apr 27, 2016This is what "ART" means! Power, truth, raw... LEMONADE proves that in pop music has people who think and makes the world think together. That's what the music industry needs.
Flawless can be a good word to define this album, but you know, I prefer magnificent.
It's Beyoncé in her best way. -
May 30, 2017Uno de los mejores discos del año pasado, las letras contestatarias pero al mismo tiempo poéticas, los géneros y la voz de Beyoncé. Feminista, político, lírico y experimental. El mejor trabajo de Beyoncé hasta la fecha,
-
Jun 14, 2016PERFEITO PISOU NA CARA DA RIHANNA COM AQUELE PROJETO MAL ACABADO DO ANTI QUE TINHA QUE FICAR É VERMELHO PRA COMBINAR COM A CAPA, ESSE POVO TODO TÁ DANDO VERMELHO PORQUE O ÁLBUM É CONCEITUAL DEMAIS PRA CABEÇA FENTY DELES QUE É SÓ VER A ÍDOLA FAZENDO UMA FAROFA COM UMA BATIDA DIFERENTE E JÁ SAI CHAMANDO DE CONCEITUAL
-
Apr 26, 2016Simply put: It is not just an another record from an other major singer of today. This is an entire journey from the first to the last second. I have never had so many different feelings while listening to music. Beyoncé, Congratulations, you deserve the praise for one of the best work of art ever.

Apr 25, 2016Excelente. Melhor álbum do ano junto com o ANTI. A sonoridade é excelente, as letras são perfeitas, cada faixa combina com outra, não é aquele álbum que você enjoa depois de algumas faixas. É aquele álbum que você estuda seguidas vezes sem pular nenhuma faixa.
-
Apr 25, 2016This is definitely the best album of the year. It's fresh, new, nothing Beyoncé had make before,it's personal (a lot personal) and raw. It talks about Jay-Z being unfaithful to Bey, with probably Rita Ora (imma kill that ****
-
Jul 28, 2016Absolutely! Beyoncé's work gets better and better through the years. The mix of music genres is amazing! Undoubtedly, her best album so far!!! A real masterpiece. This is what the world needs: ART! It brings a mix of rhythms with an amazing harmony. The context of the album is absolutely wonderful!
-
Aug 19, 2018LEMONADE is by far Beyonce's most polished and consuming work to date. Notable tracks include "6 Inch", "Love Drought", "Formation", and the exceptionally fiery and far-reaching "Don't Hurt Yourself". The album is extremely concentrated in its concepts, and fully in charge in what it sets out to say.
-
Aug 26, 2016what can i say about this album? the best of the year so far, epic lyrics, epic production, not her best (to me her best is BEYONCÉ) but is the 2nd best in her career. freedom is the best song so far

Apr 28, 2016Beyoncé sempre me impressiona! Ela consegue se superar a cada álbum, e este, definitivamente está além do significado de "arte". Todas as musicas revelam algo intimo sobre ela, o que torna o álbum ainda mais interressante e profundo.

Apr 25, 2016LEMONADE is beyoncé's best album by a long shot. Visuals and songs both reaching greatness level.I loved ho she gravitates through different genres on this album: rock, blues, reggae, trap, r&b, country, folk. Lemonade is a masterpiece!
-
Apr 25, 2016El álbum que más emociones ha generado en mí. Definitivamente una obra maestra. Beyoncé nos demuestra, una vez más, que puede hacer verdadero arte.

-
Apr 25, 2016Beyonce finally breaks out of the pop star framework she has stayed within throughout her career. This album is by far her deepest and most emotionally expressive as well as the riskiest and most innovative. The successful combination of both makes for a captivating piece of art.
-
Apr 25, 2016My personal opinion...
The Album is Fenomenal!!! A real masterpiece. This is what the world needs: ART! It brings a mix of rhythms with an amazing harmony. The context of the album is absolutely wonderful! -
May 22, 2016i have to compare this album to "Rumours" by Fleetwood Mac. Beyonce made an instant classic, best album of the year so far... fav tracks: sorry, hold up, dont hurt yourself
-
Apr 25, 2016Lyrically, 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.
-
Apr 28, 2016In what seems her most intimate and risky album yet, 'Lemonade' prove that she keeps raising the bar. Even though she could stay at her comfort zone singing girl songs, she decided to embrace a compact project about infidelity, feminism, racism and daddy issues. Well done queen B.

Apr 25, 2016Longe dos refrões fáceis do pop convencional (QUE PISÃO NA DESGRAÇADA NAZISTA), a cantora flerta com o country em canções como “Daddy Lessons”, das mais fracas do álbum, e mergulha em referências dos anos 1990 nas faixas mais fortes. Criada em parceria com o The Weeknd, “6 Inch” é uma obra-prima, calcada no trip hop visceral da era Portishead e Massive Attack.
-
Sep 6, 2016This was a beautiful form of art and protest. She is above any expectative I could have. Congratulations Beyoncé, this is PERFECTION! You stopped the World again. Collapse

Absolutely! Beyoncé's work gets better and better through the years. The mix of music genres is amazing! Undoubtedly, her best album so far. -
Jun 13, 2016Melhor album da carreira sim. Pode não ser o mais "popular" ou "feito pra hitar fácil", mas é maduro, de qualidade e ótima sonoridade. De primeira você pode até não entender bem ou gostar de uma música e outra, mas só é preciso mas uma ouvida no album pra entender o que cada música faz ali. Muito bom.

Aug 7, 2022Hasta el momento Lemonade es su mejor disco, únicamente REINASSANCE le podría arrebatar ese puesto.
-
Apr 27, 2016It's just flawless! Every song hits the right tone. It's so personal yet so universal at the same time. You can feel her grief and you can place yourself in her situation, but you can also relate beautifully.
Beyoncé has really come into her own as an artist with this album. Now she is truly unstoppable. The sky is the limit. I have no clue how she'll top this. -
Apr 26, 2016" Lemonade " is more than a simple album of Beyonce is the fight for causes that need to be wide open and shown in many ways , and when artists with the global reach of Beyoncé do it , and offer to carry through his art , they deserve to be praised and ears
