So.. here I am, third review for this absolute powerhouse of an album. Why? Because it's fun, it's uplifting, and it deserves a track by track of all 16 songs. This is one of my longest reviews so far, so thank you if you take the time to read through all of my information on the album! This is another review that took me two days of writing, so yeah... effort went into this, a lot of it.
Using the power of queer and black culture, sampling, hard-hitting bass, and old and modern influences, ... read more
Beyonce's bold voice and presence is what makes her such a standout voice for me. I feel like House music undermines what makes her work, and instead shallows her out into oblivion on most of these tracks. The best tracks for me have strong beats and hard hitting energy. When it isn't delivering that, I feel underwhelmed. The Queen is not at the top of her game here unfortunately.
Um álbum que não possui atalhos para atingir o seu objetivo de ser um revival cheio de personalidade.
Existe muita cultura em Renaissance. Beyoncé parece se arriscar em um terreno fértil de ideias que germinam de maneira extraordinária para o patamar de artista pop que ela alcançou. De imediato, é quase impossível mensurar o tanto de texturas e referências musicais que estão espalhadas por aqui. De uma forma ou outra, o ... read more
Edit: Almost a month later and this album has grown on me so much. I already thought it was great, but now I have it about even with Lemonade. So good.
Original review:
While “Renaissance” may not be Beyoncé’s best project, it’s still a pretty great body of work with a ton of highlights.
It’s been a while since “Lemonade”, which is among my favorite albums of all time. I also really liked her self-titled album, and both albums have some of my ... read more
Do I even need to give context to who Beyoncé is? It’s Beyoncé. Have you been living under a rock?
Okay, it’s been a few years since she’s released anything, we might need a refresher. After making huge waves in the late 90’s and early 2000’s in girl group Destiny’s Child, Beyoncé developed a god like status in the mid to late 2000’s with her first four solo albums, holding a grip on the public in a way that we don’t often ... read more
Após 6 anos desde seu último álbum, Beyoncé faz finalmente seu esperado comeback com 'Renaissance' e não decepciona em nada a quem ficou por tanto tempo esperando um novo LP da artista, entregando nele um dos melhores álbuns pop dos últimos tempos, no qual, Beyoncé traz a energia das discotecas dos anos 90 e 80 de forma fantástica.
Em boa parte de 'Renaissance' Beyoncé explora a música das discotecas dos anos 80 e 90, ... read more
Favourite: ALIEN SUPERSTAR
Worst: ENERGY
1. I'M THAT GIRL - 7
[It's not a bad track, I liked the idea behind it but just could have been executed better]
2. COZY - 7.5
[Definitely a catchy song. I do feel the more times I listen to this the better it will get, lyrically thought this wasn't too bad with nice production work]
3. ALIEN SUPERSTAR - 9
[Damn this is pretty good. Production work is elite with those fantastic vocals being utilised so well here, incredibly catchy as well]
4. CUFF IT ... read more
Anos após a obra prima "Lemonade", o mundo agora testemunha o renascimento de Beyoncé, álbum produzido durante a pandemia que inspirou muito a artista, que nos trouxe um disco com influências da house music e eletrônica, sua performance no projeto ficou impecável.
Outra coisa que ficou impecável é a produção do disco, o que mais me chama atenção são as transições de uma faixa para ... read more
QUEEN MOTHERFUCKING BEEEEEEEEEEEE πππππππππππππππ
Now I’ll admit, even though I’ve heard so many Beyoncé tracks before, “RENAISSANCE” is the first full album experience I’ve had the pleasure of undertaking. Yeah I know, start throwing food, shoes, dirty clothes, whatever you want, but it’s true. Given the huge amount of hype and praise I’ve heard for this album, I couldn’t be more excited to ... read more
"RESSAINANCE" is the first act of a trilogy of albums. Filled with personality and charisma, the music star's seventh album is one of the most interesting in her discography.
I didn't expect the album to contain so much trap, but it was a great surprise. You can see that the singer expanded the style used in "Everything Is Love" (a collaborative project with Jay-Z), creating fast verses mixed with vocals of an extraordinary range, one of a kind. The genre is complemented by ... read more
YOU DID.... WHAT NEEDED... TO BE DONE!!!!!!!!
PASSEI FOME POR SETE MESES E AGORA NÃO PASSO PELO RESTO DO ANO.
Seguindo nessa linha de pensamento, RENAISSANCE, sétimo álbum de estúdio solo de Beyoncé, é, em sua substância mais crua e óbvia, um renascimento. “Com todo o isolamento e injustiça do ano passado, acho que estamos todos prontos para escapar, viajar, amar e rir novamente. Eu sinto um renascimento emergindo”, a cantora disse. Entretanto, apesar desse contexto da pandemia, o que RENAISSANCE realmente mostra florescer é uma ... read more
She mentioned era when Nicolaus Copernicus was alive, POLSKA GUROM!!!
Yeah, like with JID's record, this somehow fell of my rotation even then this is one of the best house/ dance pop record i have ever listen. After six years of not releasing any solo stuff, Queen return with house record. And she definitely cooked better record than that Canadian. Project is big love letter for dance music and community originallly associated with it - black and lqbt. Beyonce's singing is really solid, groovy ... read more
Os estudiosos dizem que há muitos significados diferentes para a palavra 'Renascença', enquanto uma palavra no vocabulário português. Porém, historicamente falando, tal nomenclatura é definida como ter sido um período histórico e um movimento cultural, intelectual e artístico surgido na Itália, entre os séculos XIV e XVII — atingindo o seu ápice no século XVI. Outras variações dessa ... read more
Beyoncé's new album is a mix of cool ideas and good performance potential. But on the other hand, Beyoncé doesn't stand out for me with her voice or anything that would make this album more passionate. The production is pretty basic too and doesn't really fit with Beyoncé voice.
Fav tracks : COZY, VIRGO'S GROOVE
Least fav tracks : MOVE
Decent 5
Technically is the best album of the year. I start listening and was like “oh, good, it’s dolby atmos”, but is not. The mixing is insane, and what she did with the voice is just crazy, have so much power.
The “problem” (honestly don’t have a problem, is just taste), is that the sound ends up falling into common places. The good thing is that she can explore a lot of ideas, and even with this “””generic”””” elements, ... read more
Excitement is the first word that came to my mind while I was playing the 7th studio album from global superstar Beyoncé. 'Renaissance' is probably the most straight forward project from Bey's entire catalogue, from the production that brings out every possible aspect of musical rememberance, to the conceptually well crafted narrative that comes with insanely well written lyrics. Talking about production, this project is probably one of the best assembles when it comes to legendary ... read more
CATEGORY: BAD BITCH π₯π₯π₯π₯π₯π₯π₯
Needless to say the music is great. I'm pretty sure I don't have to go on on how much of a prolific singer Beyoncé is. How she masterfully switch between cadences and keys and melodies. Or how the production team is carefully curated in order to endorse her megastar power. But one thing I admire about this album that I haven't see many people talk about is how it is an EVOLUTION from what she's done previously. The correlations between ... read more
