Just look at her career. Beyonce brought in any genre. She can sing any kind of rhythmn. This woman is a phenomenal Woman, putting h*es in their place, by raising her price💯💋 - A trophy for any Bad- b*tch and the biggest f*** you, in the history of women, for every single b**** out there, alive or dead!💯 Well done!👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼

"POP, pop, pop, pop" the audacity. She doesn't have one album that's similar to the other. From RNB, to funk, to pop, to alternative RnB, to experimental techno pop, to other various genre on Lemonade. That man didn't seriously listen to any Beyoncé album. Now her Renaissance which is dance hall, ballroom etc.

And now country !!!!!!

[@stockyja]

No two Beyonce albums sound alike tho...that's growth. And 4 was a proper R&B album when the industry was heading in a pop/EDM direction. I guess that person never actually listened to her albums.

[@KingFelipeRoyal]

Beyoncé is one of few artists that continues to elevate and outdo herself each era. Each project there’s a significant amount of growth that she displays. I really think that y’all should really check out “4” Beyoncé fourth album. It’s not as popish as you would think coming from a pop icon. But Beyoncé isn’t the type of artist that you would place in a box . She literally has done just about every genre of music and did it exceptionally well. I agree that “lemonade” is a masterpiece! But each and every Beyoncé album represent something completely different. With “lemonade”Beyoncé opening up more than ever about her personal life & musically, she experience with just about every genre in music. Along with its incredible storytelling, and poetry is probably one of her most important project ever….. Also, lemonade wasn’t Beyoncé surprise release album. it was the album before lemonade self-titled “Beyoncé”that was The surprise release. Thank you gentlemen so much for the love and support for the queen of music. I enjoy watching y’all.

She was on her world tour at the time and rehearsed this. The formation world tour was the first tour in history that a female did a whole stadium tour ( sold out btw ).

The performance she did while pregnant with twins on the Grammys for this album was beautiful. You all might like it.

She definitely earned the title 👸🏾 I honestly don't understand how ppl can deny her talent. First time seeing your channel. Great commentary 👌🏾 👏🏾

One of her best performances and they don’t have it on KZbin 😭

[@thisisitreactions]

We got it for the people

[@you-in-yourfeelings7166]

I understand what the guy was saying about lemonade being an album where she showed the most growth. I think she has shown growth on every album. However, lemonade was the first album that was extremely intimate, and vulnerable. That was the biggest difference with this album. The album was a masterpiece. The concept, the story. One of her best albums.

[@Alexp36500]

To have your first baby, your rainbow baby at that, by a man you gave your heart to, a man you have given your music/life's work too, a man you trusted to take care of you, and he cheats on you when your child is only months old. That's what this album is. It's the answering of a question. With therapy, with true love, with work, can a relationship heal after cheating? For her and Jay it worked, and he got his act together. That's why he's at every concert now, and they did both OTR tours. I truly don't think we would have Rumi & Sir if she hadn't put her heart&soul&healing into this album. That's why she should have won that grammy, it was more than music. 'Sandcastles' alone shows her true healing. Sometimes, what you build washes away, and you have to rebuild on safer ground, not on the sand. Ugh this album is so crazy good.

[@jamiex6072]

You're absolutely right

[@lavettacannon3138]

Beyoncé grew up a list of ICONs (MJ, JJ, Prince, etc) and now she is among them!❤

[@ohthatsjahnae]

this whole era when this album came out was so .. lit 😂 2016 was so fun

[@julioaguilar8813]

beyonce leveled up with "4" and has taken a leap forward with each succeeding album

[@gracebowman3521]

NOBODY and I do mean NOBODY even comes close to Beyoncé’s level. Bey is on another freaking hemisphere. She’s definitely #1, she’s the ONLY ONE. She’s the baddest and hardest working woman on the planet. Even in her 40s Beyoncé puts women in their 20s to tucking shame. Her work ethics, physical stamina and effortless and flawless vocals is unmatched. Bey is ICONIC, LEGENDARY and the true entertainment visionary GENIUS and GOAT!!!

[@TronTheTramp]

1:30 ????? You can the serious…. Her last 3 albums sound nothing alike. He was truly talking out his ass. But I appreciate y’all reaction to this! I love seeing grown men react to her who haven’t seen these performances. These performances are not normal!!! If y’all could please do the Stevie wonder tribute, I’d be more than appreciative. It’s amazing!!!!

Lmao It has nothing to do with it She became like that without going breathless with that Sasha thing she started In this industry they call this "alter ego" but it's actually a demon that possesses her when it's time to perform Beyoncé of today is not talent its deception She's not herself anymore she's replaced with Sasha the demon to be the queen of this evil industry handled by jayz the pedo She's not the real beyoncé Yall praise an evil spirit

[@truthmatters7298]

It was the self-titled album "Beyonce" that dropped at midnight without notice.

[@definition1165]

however the evolution of beyonce's music is crazy. After 4, she kept breaking her boundries, tried progressive genres, and made albums which are fantatic body of work as a whole.

[@mfundorh]

I can't believe that man said Beyoncé had no growth before lemonade repeatedly 🤦 when she literally has never made the same album twice *smh*

[@oceansunflower5894]

75% of Beyoncé hater don't even listen to the album, they assume one song they didn't feel that mean everything is the same.. if I don't feel anyone's musical, I will not say the person can't sing, what I will say this is not my top music, is for someone else, I never realy listen to more than 4 songs of J Jackson or Tylor S but that doesn't mean the son is bad I am not into that kind of music, we have to respect someone else work. These singers put so much work for what they do. I respect them. If we have 10 singers and 10 songs with your eyes, blind folder. We all will choose what like.

[@definition1165]

if you listen to 4 which is released in 2011 you'll find out she started to explore genres like pb r&b and afro; and in 2013 she did trap songs (when trap beats were not as popular as after it did), and dived into pb r&b. If you listen to her album as a whole, you'll discover how she kept growing in music. Maybe only some pop songs went to radio, but what her albums as a whole is truly masterpiece and diverse.

[@marinahiyosi9595]

2011 Beyonce was pregnant belting LOVE ON TOP, now how she gonna top this? In 2013 Beyoncé live performance on MTV VMA, how she gonna outperform this? In 2016 She came to slay with lemonade force. How she gonna top this lmao! Beyonce in 2017 Grammy: hold my beer belting while pregnant with twins 😂 how tf she gonna outperform that? No wayy! In 2018 BEYCHELLA outslayed everything…. Then we got beyhidration until Renaissance 2023 WORLD TOUR ❤️

Maybe you just did not pay attention enough because saying Beyoncé doesn’t show growth in her songs is not true. She is easily the most versatile of her peers. She has done a song in literally every genre and no two Beyoncé albums are similar thematically or lyrically 😂

Olliwoodda is catching heat for those Beyoncé growth comments!!! As he should!

[@patriciacovington2250]

I know this is old, but I'm just now seeing it. You guys missed three whole albums before Formation. You guys missed 4, I Am, and Beyonce', which she has showed growth every time. And by the way Beyonce' (self-titled) was the one she dropped in the middle of the night without promotion.

[@airmykii4090]

In the beginning of the performance during the first number “pray you catch me” .. the angels surrounding Beyoncé being shot down represent the black lives lost to police brutality during that era … the hooded male walking behind her near the end of the number .. he represents Trayvon Martin

[@ashrick718]

Growth … baby ‘4’ (2011) from her previous works was growth. The self-titled album in (2013) was hella growth as well! what u smokin .

[@SLEEPY-CELESTIAL]

Out of nowhere December 13th 2013 I can remember it like it was yesterday I was still in high school when she did this she dropped the highly-anticipated self-titled Beyonce and shattered the music industry and now the global release of albums are now Friday because of subtitle

[@marcell_dupree]

Beyoncé grows with each album as an artist for sure but she’s never been a “pop” artist. Her only real pop album in the sense of the sound is I Am Sasha Fierce and even that album has heavy R&B influence as well as other genres. Yes she’s grown with each album in terms of content and depth but even so she’s always at the peak of whatever her current state of artistry is. With that said, her songs that are more pop tinged are ones that always go to radio but that’s not her fault so I understand thinking that that is her sound but as a whole she rarely does strict pop. Her sound is uniquely her own for sure in the way that she genre blends on each singular song. This was a great video though!

I don't mean to be bullish about it but that is extremely disingenuous.

I understand what Olli means, the perception he kept as Beyonce artistry is mainly the type of songs she did in DC and at the beginning of her solo carreer. What he ignores is that She switched it up in all the ways between 2000 and 2010. Her image, her lyrics, her sound and even started cursing. She startedbto sing about social problems and things that were not "good" for her career and image.
