Beyonce pours out her frustration and bitterness in a collection of songs on her latest album, Lemonade, which dropped Saturday on Tidal after the premiere of her HBO special of the same name.
The dark, violent imagery in HBO’s Lemonade provides a backdrop for her spoken word poetry interspersed between 12 tracks that paint Beyonce as a self-pitying victim of a cheating man.
Oh, and she tried it with yet another pregnant prosthetic scene in a dimly lit room. Does Beyonce have a clear, well-lit photo of herself while she was supposedly pregnant with Blue Ivy?

Thanks for posting, cause I was about to click on Demand… save me the trouble
Nice.
WOW!!!! I’m quite surprised and somewhat blown away. Excellent job Bey!!!
I love it! And its great marketing….
They have the best marketing team that money can buy. For months rumors have been floating about her and Jay splitting up and then she drops this song….She shows her pregnant belly reigniting the surrogate theory.
This video was dark & creepy & it exuded…… ‘Southern Gothic’ imagery…….
**********
BUT…………OH WELL………………..
Slay Yonce! I love how personal this was. The song about her Daddy had me a little teary eyed and seeing him play with Blue was precious. Trayvon and Mike Brown’s Mothers broke my heart. Serena looked gorgeous. Amandla should be an inspiration for all young girls. The macabre song about wearing the side chicks hands for gloves….and her hair as a cap was over top but I loved it! #DeathToTheSideChick should be the thing in 2016 lol. I usually only Stan for Erykah Badu but this was really great….don’t think I’ll be subscribing to Tidal to get it either butterrum…
This is based on a poem. I doubt that jay would agree to be in it if they were really getting divorced. It’s only entertainment
Tidal sent me a notification that this video dropped, after I saw my Twitter TL was full of posts from her stans. I cleared that notification so quickly.
I won’t be drinking the lemonade. Thanks, but no thanks. *sips raspberry green tea*
Amazing!!! I like how personal it is and how she’s stopped trying to be like that other singer who’s also hot right now. SLAY!!! However I doubt I will be subscribing to Tidal
Agreed will not watch a second time.. Some of the songs are good tho…show of hands how many people thought Serena was B in a black wig…briefly…?
WOW!!!!
Simply amazing.
i just watched annnnd Bey so DRAMATIC..she loves everything in her life real hard..i would be scurrd to be jay’s sidechick tho…I truly believe Bey would ghost somebody
Why are all Beyonce’s supposed pregnancy pictures so convoluted? I’ll pass on watching any video by Beyonce, not today Devil.
That was absolutely the most beautiful thing I ever seen, it takes a self aware, lucid minded, conscious women to understand the message. I hear u loud in clear sis. Bravo
P.s let that negro see his life flash before his eyes before u give him the kiss of mediocrity, send him on his way to be care for by a average Bitc*.
“Does Beyonce have a clear, well-lit photo of herself while she was supposedly pregnant ” sounds so petty and high school. Get over it, she slays and you have to report about it. #whenthehelpisjealous
I knew she was gonna focus on the belly when I saw it in the “movie”… I was pleasantly surprised by this take on delivering a new album…
The first to drop a full hour video for a new album.. She puts in work… #WorkHard #RespectMe
True dat.. & also the first to warn a nigg* in chastised his as$ on national television. But she did it in love thats what make her a bad bitc*.
I think the whole breakup thing is for show… she ain’t leaving big hammer jay z
That’s no show.. That brother have been warned.
she featured him in the love segment… why do that if she over it?
Sup all… lurker turning into “commenter” I love y’all convos sometimes… There was a dude named Brenden or something that made me wanna join.. he cracks me up!!! ok Carry on…
why put him in the video if it wasn’t about him??? the whole video was about a man that can’t receive love. And a women trying to force feed it to him. And she walks away to let him feed himself, & he did. Now they can go on as a well nourished couple, If he continues to nourish himself. Don’t think for a moment that was for fake, that was undoubtedly the realist shi* she ever wrote. But she still got one eye open on that brother he still got to prove his self.
I get it but, I call it marketing…
Yes it is marketing, marketing the fact she have held up two finger to this dude and encouraging other women to get in formation with her.
Awesome Job Beyonce!!
I gave up on Beyonce a while ago. I don’t understand her so-called deep CDs and don’t get the lyrics….she needs to have subtitles with her videos.
In the tradition of men in my blood you come home at 3am and lie to me….if this is about Jayz and her marriage – why would she release it on Tidal?
And then we’re to believe she’s suicidal? And she abstained from sex for 60 days — hahahahaha!
This is a long-form movie and she’s a great marketer. But none of it interested me. It’s not a CD I would buy that would hold my attention. But it’s excellent Beyonce for sure.
(I tried to just listening to it without the visuals and it’s hard to listen to)
Wow!! I wasn’t going to watch it. I’m still trying to process losing our beloved Prince. However, It was very beautiful and very well done. I teared up when I saw Trayon’s and Michael Browns Mom. LOVED the dedication piece about black women. Awesome job Beyonce!
You can’t listen to it as a standlone CD, you must see the visuals with the music.
I dont think she’ll die cause you not buying what she selling. #WomenRule
???
Sips tea.
I’m here for it. Never been a Beyoncé fan, but her voice here sounds so clear, almost gutteral. She talks about tearing it (her marriage/a relationship) all down and rebuilding it. Love her or hate her, it’s pretty powerful.
Not sure how she’ll sell it; it’s not very radio-friendly.
When she said “what a f***king curse” about loving a cheating man, just like her mother loved a cheating man, I got chills. I’ve questioned Beyonce’s intelligence before, but I gotta give her respect here. She woke.
Oh my?(Overton Wakefield Jones voice )
I’m going to start by saying I am no Beyonce fan. Super talented but musically, she has never moved me. You have to give that woman her props. That was a great piece of work. I enjoyed most of the songs. It’s has been said many many times that her music lacks maturity and growth but she proved otherwise with this project. Well for me she did.
Wow I like this . Had to watch it twice but yeah. Very eye opening. I sense a divorce though
I see the Beyonce flies I mean Stans are up in here today.
? WTF is that about?
Wow I’m shocked at myself I absolutely loved it I just might subscribe to Tidal just to get her songs.
Her grown ass admitted to being the side joint ??
The “artistry”, in my opinion, is in convincing people that a woman who NEVER speaks to her private life is now suddenly writing an entire album about it and having them talk about her disfunctional relationship to others who are interested, or not – and marketing FOR her. As IF any song an artist sings is very personal… If so, did Adele REALLY get to the other side and had cell service? Was the rain really purple over there, and toxic, and Prince FINALLY succumbed to complications from it? Did Xscape EVER get any understanding? Did Jay Z go to the RIGHT, instead, and that’s why he’s still here for this new track? Did Ike and Tina ever EVER do anything, Nice… And Easy?
Right before every single album this broad is either pregnant, getting a divorce, or her album is about her marriage… And y’all keep falling for it. Just like the music if it’s good (haven’t heard it yet), but stop trying to make Beyonce deeper than she is.
Patti sings, “Lady Marmalade” and it’s just a song, Beyonce has an album and it’s pages 29-84 of her diary.
it’s already sold: formation world tour
So true! ?
So 50 has a middle son he met about a week ago?
Yes. Boy looks like his oldest son.
It doesn’t matter how many times she shows her bare pregnant belly some people will still say it’s fake. That lady had pregnant face and pregnant boobs… I’m no Stan but let the woman live dayum
Rumor has it she’s talking about her Dad and Jay’s infidelities.
I have to say Beyonce really is a genius from a creative marketing standpoint. Lemonade is an artistic achievement. I stayed up until 2 a.m. watching lemonade on repeat and I saw something new each time. Lemonade allows her fans to see and feel what it’s like to love a serial cheater. Like her mother, she is determined to keep her family together, at least until Blue Ivy is grown and out of the house.
She took a break and decided to forgive him… girl, watch it again.
Beyoncé has always said that she leaves whatever she has to say on a track. She doesn’t like to speak to anything… and you know why ?
Rumor has it? That’s clear as day.
Maybe he’s cheating because she’d rather talk to no one on her laptop…
If you notice, relationships in that family have longevity because of the importance of having a loving father. Blue Ivy won’t grow up to be a confused lesbian or work the pole.
Seek therapy my Gawd …
Or one of them… No wonder Beyonce is so obsessed with good hair.
they start saying how she’s so “deep” and all that other bull ITS HER TEAM BEHIND HER DOING THE WORK.
I don’t think that’s a rumor. Her father had multiple children outside of his marriage. jay Z has multiple children outside of his marriage. I think Lemonade’s infidelity angle is pretty clear.
I like this chile so far …. still 3 mins in
Did you have a loving father? No shade but did you?
Lol
Petty ass Beyhive changed Rachel Roy’s Wiki page. Screenshot
Laaawwwddd!!! The Beyhive don’t play!!!! They are dragging Rachel Roy for FILTH on IG for posting a pic with the hash tag #goodhair. I mean for filth. I didn’t watch Lemonade. But I’m assuming Bey makes a reference to the side chic about good hair. Baby they’re going in!!!! She has since deleted the pic ?
I just posted about the Beyhive. They don’t play ??
On my way to church. And while there as I have done past week or so, to try to pray a cheating lying ass man out of my own damn soul. If I made music I would write a song or 12 about it too I guess. Good luck Bey. Happy Sunday Roses.
I had a father in my home but he wasn’t loving. He was drunk 24/7 and abusive to my mother. We never bonded as father and daughter. Just having a father in the house isn’t enough if there is no emotional connection.
You don’t think Beyonce is human and can have problems like everyone else! She doesn’t vent her problems on social media like other celebs, she put’s it in her music.
Now I must say …… Love the creativeness behind this ….. so many artists are now stepping up with creativity chile ….. soar ……… soar … this is what MJ and Prince was trying get folks to see chile …….. Chile Ion know if ya’ll notice this by the way
Happy Sunday mama! Go get your praise on and some for me too.
Aww Sandy ?
That’s her own fault. She should’ve known better. Those kids don’t play.
I can’t get that hour back of my life. I was waiting for something like 4. This is just garbage. I was waiting to see what she put out to buy tickets to her concert. I won’t be attending.
BUT I did love the “Blackness” of it. That is ALL.
Hey bew ….. I like …… I am proud of her finally … she stepping into her truth …… that act ….. chile …. ….. so glad ….expressing herself or her truth ….. truth is always more appealing chile …. see gif … speaking of truth …. I done fired up da grill chile …. Chicken wangs aromas currently filling the air .. ribs and burgers and hot dogs coming up
Agreed almost didn’t watch it because she’s in with “them” and didn’t want my brain scrambled by the imagery.
Waste of time anyway
Truth
Dead
I’m sure she told you that during one of your late night sessions…
I haven’t watched yet, but I agree 100% with you.
Bey gonnna have these young girls out her killing side chicks..smh..yall better not follow the leader she not bailing none of yall out of jail…her daddy to me was the one time I actual enjoyed her music.
giggles…….
My father wasn’t, is NOT, and never will be shit so I feel you.
It was boring and dumb, and that belly glimpse looks so fake. Why cover the belly button. She still trying to prove she was pregnant. Grasping at straws during the last months of her career like a cat clawing yarn to climb to the top. It’s the year of Kylies, rihs, and chynas. Nothing but middle aged women 28-49 care about her. Just like Mariahs lambs faded into obscurity, so will the beehive old asses
Kids. Childish. Exactly. They be loud and stupid too IMO over on social media for no damn reason most times. I get it. They are fans. But they irk me.
When did 28 become middle aged!?!!
She said Becky with the good hair. I hate that term but whatever
Not Bangla. Not Bengali girl with the good hair.
I mean if Rachel raised her hand and said she felt she could relate to that one lyric so damn what. Smdh.
Sorry to hear that. Have you ever considered reconciling?
I’m clicking to watch but there is no sound? Never mind. Working now.
???
Hugs
Send me shum
So sorry you went thru that.
They irk me as well. But she knew they were coming for her when she wrote that caption under that picture. I can’t even pull it all on the kids. A lot of the folks that participate in this type of nonsense are grown adults which is sad.
Lol I honestly can’t believe anything anymore. Just another publicity stunt. Folks always fall for the distraction.
Have not watched yet but she’s a smart business woman.
Y’all KNOW that Bey fans and hives have no chill when it comes to her! THEY GO IN
I know Olivia. This chick again.
If the man is a serial cheater, leave him as soon as possible. Don’t stay because it will do more harm than good (STDs, you kill some random woman or yourself over a no good man, end up in jail, or just simply not living too your full God given potential). Bey considers herself a boss and self made woman, so she will be fine without Jay (she has her own money, can get another man, can buy her own house, etc.). The child can end up damaged from seeing them in dysfunction.
I didn’t see it. But it sounds like she was getting some thangs off her chest
Soooo another tour, another rumor about infidelity. Her marketing team is amazing. I didn’t make it through the whole “movie”. Maybe about 15/16 minutes in, but from the comments I gather Jay Z made an appearance in the video.
I don’t really care but I would like to know if he is still cheating, or does the video allude to the fact that he stopped. I know that you are supposed to love someone through good and bad, sickness and health, but at what point do you love yourself enough to say enough is enough. Why are women encouraged to stay until the man either gets tired of cheating or is no longer physically able to cheat. To me, the cycle continues. Her mother married and stayed with a cheating azz man (for the most part). She married and stayed with a cheating azz man (allegedly). I wonder what Blue will do…
wait…so you DID like it??
Bey slayed Jey for filth! She put that ass on blast?????????????
She’s a business woman who made a smart maketing business move. Y’all gonna be talking about this until Rihanna gets pregnant with Drake. On another note it was worth the watch the songs were good the poems where great. Bey is usually as interesting as paint drying but lately she’s been showing some personality.
Ring the alarm gave me life lol
Why would you assume she’s not telling the truth! Lol…You clearly reaching for a reason to hate on this woman. Boy bye.
I’m no Bey fan either, but I actually like quite a few of these songs. Not enough to subscribe to Tidal though.
Damn you & those knees. Lol
Oh my God!!! Truth truth!!!!
Okay Beyonte, okay! I love the focus on black women overall.
They are incredibly petty for that; don’t care who (Rachel or any other thirsty starlet) who tries or will try for some shine after Beyontae’s short film. They behave petty in the name of Beyontae and it IMHO only diminishes the artistic value and/or overall message of the work.
She made her page private!
Let’s hope petty azz, big-headed Dame Dash stays out of this. ?
I watched some & I liked the dueces song & the yellow dress song too–OH & THE NATURAL HAIR (OF THOSE THAT WERE REAL–NATURALISTA, LOL)…(CLEARLLY WASN’T AS INTRESTED AS I THOUGHT I WOULD BE)…Felt like I was watching a seance at times, LOL & changed to baseball & basketball games…It did NOT help to try to watch with your mother either, asking–She’s a rapper now? That DAMN Jay-Z done cheated & SHE STAYED? Is that Serena Willams in that leotard? OR EVEEERYYY LITTLE GIRL RUNNING…IS THAT BLUE? Marketing IS my life (studied it & it STILL in it), so she clearly has & is doing something right. Get the people going & capitalize off it–ALLLLL MARKETING, LOL…Wonder will there be more tracks because she gave an ENTIRE earful & will there even be a need for purchasing? SIDENOTE: SERENA R-E-A-L-L-Y is trying H-A-R-D to get those twerk skills up & it AIN’T happenin’ GIRL, just let the a$$ be WONDERFUL on its own…like a GREAT piece of art–JUST WATCH, ADMIRE & APPRECIATE…MONA LISA STYLE, LOL
(Remembered your posting on ole girl skills–STILL LAUGHING) Did you catch Serena & her TWERK-TASTIC-TWERKING skills? Gave a body roll on a column too…LOL…SHE TRIES, SHE TRIES
And this is the type of response her marketing team planned for lol cha-Ching!
Nobody said anything about Serena and Quevezhne’ and Trayvons mom or Mike Browns mom or the little sister that was in the Hunger games…
Yeah she low key deep but she’s got a little while to go.
I like her songs hit or miss but I enjoyed this very long video… The cinematography and visuals. Well done. ?
Lol
This was amazing, I went through lots of emotions while watching. Great job Bey!
Very true Sandra
She opened HBO for everyone to view for free.
Me too
And the haters are as well
Well…she knew what she was doing Dub. When she wrote out that caption, there was no coincidence in that wording. Maybe she was simply trying to be funny in light of the rumors but it didn’t work out for her. The Beyoncé stans didn’t get the joke and her comment section resembles when animals attack judging by IG ?
Keep praying, God answers in the most amazing ways.
I’m glad someone is not blind to the fact he has other children.
I loved it… Some of her most creative and artistic work
This was amazing!!! Thanks so much for posting.
Umm am I invited? I’ll bring drinks lol
Nope just that he called her missing her after she left, and that she is going to work on keeping her relationship together cause it true love. Of course I’m paraphrasing.
This is Bey’s best work to date. I must say I was in black woman heaven ??. This was beautiful. I saw some inspiration from Solange’s wedding pictures in there. Now we know their relationship is just like any other. Ups, downs, and common issues such as infidelities. They are human. Well done Bey, Well Done http://sandrarose.com/wp-includes/images/smilies/icon_applause.gif
???
So that was her pregnant? That was weird odd creepy Im gonna just leave this alone I dont know why I kept thinking about the 7 circles of hell. I need to pray on this my spirit aint right after watching that.
That’s nice. And I still won’t be paying it any mind.
Right after you….
The entire video was a celebration of black womanhood. It showed the world how black women (and girls) experience and process happenings beyond our control. It also gave us permission to be angry, vulnerable, soft, hard, in love and out. Unlike others, I didn’t get an evil vibe, and I’m very sensitive to that sort of thing. It just looked vintage black southen. *shrugs* I also don’t believe it’s about her as much as it is abt black women in general. I thought it was beautiful and I had a goooood cry thinking abt my great-grandmother who worked in a mill since age 13, retired, then worked cleaning for 2 white families. I remember being with her one day watching her clean and iron their tablecloths, sheets, and towels (yes towels) and having their grandkids run in and call MY great grandmother by her 1st name – no handle, no “Miss”, “Auntie”, nothing! I remember saying Ganny they in trouuuuble – they didn’t say “Miss”. She grabbed me looked me in my eyes and said, “Shut up chile”. She never took me back.
I also remember her walking me to dance class every week because she wanted me in the arts. (Mom worked a lot). Taught me to have grace, always pray, grabbing my face and telling me when I asked if I was pretty, “Honey, hush”, told me to wear rain kerchiefs, wear petticoats, keep your skirt down, highch up your shirt, if ever you’re walking and a car slows down take off runing, don’t take candy from men who are not family, don’t eat your restaurant food in the car on the way to the house – shows a lack of self-control. Always remember don’t let nobody tell you who YOU are. Home-cooked meals, collard greens with cornbread eaten with the fingers. Kool-aid made with HOT water, then cooled later. So much. This video just brought back so much. I also loved seeing the vid with Beyonce and her dad. I too had a good dad, but he lived in Atlanta (I went every Summer) – we were closer than close, he’s been dead since 2004 and I have yet to go back to Atlanta, and it’s my favorite city! But I still agree with Sandy, it’s not the same when dad’s out of the home. Then she and her husband – perfection! Didn’t mean to write this much, it was just a great experience. I’ve never seen anything like it. It was very touching, I could not stop crying. *book. published. LOL. Yes, I know, I’m lame. 
This was so beautiful. I felt some pain, happiness etc. all kinds of emotions . ???? Love her.
I wish parents understood the power they have to damage or either fortify their kids. So sad for you
You’re not lame. That was beautiful. I was told some of the same stories by my mom.
That is true Sandra. My Mom and Dad are still together after 30 years. My husband parents just celebrated their 40th anniversary so yes I know the importance of having a father. Sadly black families find “proud single parent” as some sort of accomplishment when it is a true tragedy and scourge to the black community. To say such in a public space will receive much backlash from women who think that them “doing it all” is honorable or some sort of #goal. I pity those fools on Facebook posting Easter pictures with their clan of 3 kids (by 3 fathers) dressed to the nines smiling with not a man in sight. But I can only lead by example for my own child and hope that she sees the importance of waiting on marriage before having children.
Yeah…so that is most definitely not the kind of love I need in my life.
Not lame at all. Very moving…thank you for sharing.
Me to sis, I never been a fan of sucker for love women and I wasn’t going to start just because her name was beyonce, but I have a lot more respect for B now… That took a lot of courage for her to do that. But he should have let that sleeping dog lye.
Well idk if it’s so much about loving a serial cheater as it is not really knowing how to be a women. Girls think because their gender is female that’s make them a women but women-Dom and Girl-Dom comes in the same package but one is neglected while the other receive nourishment. In most cases females feeds the girl and neglects the women. A women wouldn’t have put up with Jay more than a second mybe even two, but a girl finds him interesting. But that’s just my opinion.
Creepy witchcraft
Right!
I really didnt know what to expect but i really liked it. Good job Bey an team…
Chile I already do ….. love it !!!! (see pic) https://uploads.disquscdn.com/images/d66381bc3fd0fc513c1267bc209a86a75466cd1b1b6061de4d8462d80aef2253.jpg
And it was good …….
A lot of y’all won’t reach 56 due to eating soul food and fatty livers so yes, it’s middle aged. Bye pauper
You talking to the wrong one over here. I eat right, exercise daily, and don’t let dumb ish get to me. Sipping on a homemade smoothie as I type. Bye…pauper.
I just know it was ??
Never cared for Bey, but this album bumps. I will be buying. Take my money now.?????
Yet she’s still in that souless marriage so who’s the fool here, not Jay
She loved it.???? S he stayed up till 2 am watching it repeatedly.?
I love how real and transparent Bey has learned to b in her music lately!!! This mini filmed was so authentic it gave me goose bumps, chills, and tears all at the same time!! ???????
Lol, they sure are, this chick to me is so contrived and boring, booty shaking lost its appeal now she is using her business marriage to sell some records and a tour, can you say desperate, her fans are like zombies.
I am sorry to hear that Sandra. That’s awful to go through.

what does a confused lesbian have to do…oh,talking about yourself…got it.
Women do what they need to do for their families. It isn’t uncommon for couples to be married for decades. I’ve known several of them, and still do. What is most unfortunate is people who are married or have parents who’ve been married for decades looking down upon single parents. There’s always backlash directed towards single mothers, far too many times, from other women. Women are single for reasons other than divorce or their children being born out of wedlock, but that would make too much sense for people to consider more than one factor. There are such people as single fathers, too. I’ve never known them to bear the burden of ridicule that single mothers bear. Meanwhile, men are out here impregnating multiple different women, but that’s the women’s fault, as if men don’t lie everyday about how many children they have. It’s easy as pie to lie when your body doesn’t show signs of childbirth and your children don’t reside with you, but *coma*.
If you’re a parent who successful raises a child, whether married or single, you should be proud. Everyone isn’t able.
She isn’t going anywhere. Jay screwing someone else right. now.
I wish Beyonce would go to college.
Folks still sleep…she keeps that belly button hidden.
Seriously. Do not hit repeat. Even her pregnant stomach looks weird covering up the button.
lol! Please go find something for her to do.
lol it makes me laugh when people think that only black people are single parents or that we think its some kind of “accomplishment”.
I think I’ll like about 5 of the songs… Wish she wouldn’t have read her diary out loud for all her Stans to gush over. Keep your personal business private and just make good music. Whomever produced the videos was very dark minded. That’s all I got
? shooo fly! https://uploads.disquscdn.com/images/77117bcfe4e2c824047f34cd450b263ff16313cdb89fe1263895fca0d5aa62b3.gif
I’m with sandy on this where is a real pregnant Beyonce pic..she is beyondfake
BEYONFAKE PREGNANCY IS AS REAL AS MICHAEL JACKSON BEING THE FATHER TO PRINCE MICHAEL AND PARIS AND BLANKET
Thanks Sandra for sharing. One thing about Bey, you never know what path or course she will come from. BRAVO!!! The music, story line, location (New Orleans), extras, models, actors, family, friends, and the exhibition of love coming from every walk of life was very well produced. Sisters are fighting back for what they believe in, I’ve come to learn, regardless of what a women owns or think of herself, another snake is sitting patiently, waiting for her to say, “its over!” As time progresses, that snake will silently crawl their way into your domain, and try and play your part. This, I will say to you Bey; fight and hold onto your family. Only the strong survive. Your prayers will and have been heard. This one hour music video disperse’ the truth in so many ways. But the message will enable a family, marriage, community, relationship or someone who has loss a loved one at the hand of violence, the strength and ability to proceed with their God given purpose in life. Somewhere in this world, I’m pretty sure BECKY got the message.
#RealTalk
So will her diehard fans think it will be okay to stay with a serial cheater!You know some of can’t think for themselves
Right. Community college. Hair school. Be a CNA. Something.
I just want to know a few things: a) is this where music is headed – to visual CDs? And how much does one pay for this visual CD?
It was a one time look for me. It’s not something I would put on rotate and listen/look to over and over. Not like a real movie, or even a music CD. (see Prince)
I can only remember 3-4 Beyonce songs….the rest are forgettable. Her best CD IMO was the 4 CD.
She really is going to go crazy if she doesn’t find something to do with her time besides wandering who Jay’s screwing. This music was a waste of time. Doesn’t she have some journals to write things like this down for her tell all book during her mid life.
I watched Beyonce do her Lemonade thing and felt like I wasted 52 min of my life. One song is worthy of a Spotify playlist add ???. That Album/Movie was all over the damn place.
Beyonce called the surrogate “talk” stupid and ridiculous and yet SHE can’t let it go. She got blasted for the “fuzzy” pics so now she makes this attempt? Why?? She obviously cares because she creates this fake perfection of her life but screwed up the pregnancy with the Aussie belly flop and continues damage control. Beyoncé would have posed bare bellied on every single magazine cover in the world if she was actually pregnant. Guaranteed, Beyonce will never have another child because she knows she could never get away with another fake pregnancy. Goes to show how perfectly orchestrated her image is. I don’t get why people fall for her nonsense. She preys on her brainwashed fans
JayZ is one of the ugliest men, both face and body, on the planet. Imagine his face sleeping and waking up in the morning? Enough said! Their marriage is a business arrangement pure and simple. There is No Way Beyoncé could sleep with that man, let alone love him. Let him play. Who cares!
????
He is quite ugly I can’t argue with you about anything you said BOL
Very well stated.
I like it
It’s not just Blacks but it says something about our values as a group of people. Our family traditions were broken during slavery but it is about time for us to start healing those wounds. Your response was basically…well they do it too! That way of thinking is juvenile and your statement rather redundant. Yes I know not all single Mother’s are black but we are the only ones walking around like its a badge of honor. When you know better you do better. Peace.
Birth control exists. Yes SOME people are widowed and single parents for no fault of their own. But for every 1 person that you know who lost a spouse from death or other unfortunate life events you probaby know 3 Bumquisha’s or Bumquinte’s who jump from relationship to relationship having babies with any and everybody who comes along. Those are the people who I look down upon. Those irresponsible men and women dropping seed any everywhere. Its really a game of odds think about it….those good men with decent jobs and good values don’t want to settle down with a 30 year old women with 4 kids by 3 men when they can have a college educated sista with 0 kids. So use birth control until a more suitable mate comes along and then start a family. Be fuk’n responsible people.
Everyone can’t take birth control. Shock and awe. Some people are allergic to latex as well. Shock and awe again. Every parent, single or married, isn’t a parent to multiple children. Shock and awe for the 3rd time.
When you want to take the racist inferences out of your comments, I’ll be happy to engage you in an intelligent exchange. Until then, God bless.
Or mother!!
Must be watched with closed captions on. I loved it after the 2nd time, when I was able to follow her words and visuals. Fav song/visual was Daddy Lessons and Don’t Hurt Yourself. Did Bey’s breast get bigger, they were extra juicy.
Not lame at all. I enjoyed the video and the jewels you dropped about the lessons your great-grandmother taught you. I too agree that there wasn’t an “evil” vibe to it. It was so Louisiana, ancestry, roots (which we have been lead to believe by others that it is evil – it’s not) and rich in “color” and black woman femininity. I enjoyed your take/read on it. Thank you.
Mannnn I can’t see it. Copyrights removed it ????
Her and her uterus don’t owe you or anyone else any explanations Sandra.
SPEAK my man! Beyonce should be celebrated not denigrated.
Forreal?? …Damn copyright infringement..
I don’t understand how that could be copyright infringement either. HBO was free all weekend.

A loving father is not one that cheats continuously(or period for that matter ), and have children outside of their marriage. That’s not loving at all, it’s selfish, immoral, and shows a deep lack of respect for one’s marriage mate, children, self, and the institution of marriage.

Please don’t take this the wrong but I respect you even more that you were honest about your relationship with your father.
Its is truly beautiful when folks stay married for many decades. Although I a skeptic to wonder what kind of hell most of those marriages had to suffer to withstand. The more the years the more suffering and then peace.
Post it again!!lol
Post it again!!lol
Exactly she would have never missed that photo opt moment. It’s most of these celebs Iconic Moment to show their belly. I’m confused never seeing w pic of Beyonce that large even in her 9th month?
I loved Lemondade! I’m not even a Bey fan. I’ve never purchased any of her albums (although there are several songs I love), but never ran to purchase one. Let me tell you this though, I will purchase this one. She collaborated with so many other artists on this album. It is going to be the bomb.
There is something called abstinence…
F**k…I would be happy if she got a GED
Drop the mic
me….for this one.. $0…
I have the sads…. missed this on hbo and been trynna catch it again but I haven’t seen 1 second of lemonade.
Right?! Geez.
You are making excuses. Just admit that the major of us are irresponsible with f”ked up family units. Racist? Thats a joke. Honest and frank is more accurate. Latex allergies….can’t take birth control? Your arms should be tired from all that reaching! There are sheep skin condoms (not as effective but they exist). Many forms of birth control besides pills….shots, iud’s, copper implants. How many baby daddies do you have?! Because you are getting to hot and bothered about this topic. My Mama would say “A hit dog will holler.” In the back of your mind you know you made the wrong decision by having all those babies so young. Be honest with yourself.. I’m not saying you don’t love them just that if you had waited until your were stable and had a father that wants to be there all of you would have a better quality of life.
man you are super negative.. that lady has noting to prove to you about her child birth..yall takes this way to far…
It is. I don’t know too many married people who practice abstinence, but it exists.
You don’t need to agree with a word I typed. I didn’t post to agree with you or disagree. I know people who everything I stated applies to. Learn the difference between facts and “excuses.”
You purposely used what you consider stereotypical Black names as examples of bad mothers. Take your Raven-Symone meets Donald Trump bullshït elsewhere. It isn’t welcome in my replies.
Thank you. With their stupid a?s.
That SandraRose – I totally agree with. My father was there physically too but not emotionally. So your last sentence was right on the mark.
It’s been fun. But your deflects and excuses are starting to bore me. Sow your seed with as many baby fawvah as you would like as I am fairly certain you already have. Only a person who has done such would try to justify such despicable behavior. Bye Miss Teen Mom (notice I put Miss not Mrs haha) im sure your son will be soon be old enough to play father figure to the youngns real soon just be patient. God Bless.
P.S I have a stereotypical black name too but it doesn’t define me.
Yassss bish!
Life is boring to you. Take the leap, honey. Do us all a favor. As I said, did yourself and your ignorance from my replies before I call Orkin and have you permanently exterminated. ??
God is LOVE and FORGIVENESS! He is the one who shall judge not you! Go out in the world and talk to people about it instead of sitting on your butt just complaining. I don’t like it when Black People sit around and just complain. BE THE CHANGE YOU WANT TO SEE!
Stop it with ” WE AS A PEOPLE” crap we are not monolithic. And not every Black Women walk around thinking it is a badge of honor.
Like you are such a genius! Beyoncé is and always will be smarter than you. I question your intelligence as well!
You guys are a bunch of idiots if you think Beyoncé is not smart. As a kid she got accepted to one of the elite schools in Houston that has nothing to do with singing!
That is true “not every Black Women walk around thinking it is a badge of honor.” I am one of those women hence the reason I am speaking against the innumerable folks that do not see a problem with it.
I personally don’t hate anyone. I am happy in my own life so she dos not bother me. She is a smart business woman and a smart woman period!
Find some happiness in your own life!
I agree with everything you said. Unfortunately Black Women will not even give her credit for featuring Black women in the video because they dislike her so much. She showed love to women who don’t like her and try to tear her down and that says a lot about Beyoncé. But have no problem when famous Black men say degrading things about Black women and still support them. Best Post yet!
Thanks Toni and I totally agree with everything you said
Thank you for saying that sis
Thank you
Thanks Rayne
Where’s the belly button?
No she needs to train her speaking voice. Just a lil training & insight into delivery will do the world of good.
am I living under a rock? I have not heard ONE note of Lemonade. smh
We have a bigger illegitimacy problem than all other races. It might not *just* be us, but it is mostly us.
Our traditions were broken in he 60s, not by slavery. Slavery made us stronger– welfare made Uncle Sam the only man a woman needed her home. Thank LBJ for that.
So when they was beating the dog shat out of us and taking our names, religion, familial structure, literacy, decency, and kids away….that made us stronger?! We can agree to disagree on that one.
I love you Sandra I thought the same exact thing Beyoncé trying to convince us again she actually carried Blue ivy smh but these delusional fans believe anything
