Because Beyonce made some bullshit "beef" with JayZ but tidal (owned by Jay Z) got exclusive streaming rights. Obviouse b8 marketing and it worked. She knew it was shit so had to do that just to get people to listen to it.

>>69977917

It got 94 on metacritic though.

Not an argument

You haven't discussed the music at all yet.

>>69977476
/thread

>>69978513
>not an argument
Also is not an argument.

Its okay to be retarded anon when I did discuss the music. Are you dense?

/mu is a little bit allergic to music that's about or by black people. I don't think the board is racist, but the demo here is mostly introverted teenage whites.

Watch the next time a popular hip hop thread is on the board. People talk about a song or a record in a way that isn't dumb, or bad--but is instead extremely suggestive that they don't really engage with a certain type of music. That type being hip hop, R&B, or any kind of modem soul. They generally cherry pick the hip hop records they care about.

Kanye has some pull here, but only because a lot of this board has a huge erection for Twisted Fantasy--not really sure why.

The only other hip hop record that mu really, really loves is Madvillain.

Aside from that, you'll catch a couple threads when a big release drops, but that's it.

A record by a black female pop artist that has to do with feminine power, identity, infidelity issues and reconciliation, done in a range of styles from hip hop to funk to reggae to country-----really not this boards cup of tea.

I genuinely believe that this board is the best on the site, but we still get plenty of wanderers from b, v, and pol--which are full of teenage racists.

>>69978542
You didn't. Your banal argument consisted of "it's pop, it's catchy, it's not exprimiental"

>>69978513
Its okay to like something other people don't like anon. You don't have to defend it's honor like you do with your hot lady friends on Facebook

>>69978542
Not him but you're dumb as fuck

No argument will please the lemonadefags because music is subjective
But once you get enough people with the same subjective opinion (that it's shit) it starts to be a truth.

>>69978745

no, THANK YOU.
fucking case closed, although I still musically like this album more than that pure garbage Solange put out, neither speaks for black people, and those that think so are either misinformed or easily fooled.
If you wan't a genuinely political album go listen to babyfather or gaika, not this rubbish.

>>69977395

hey okay i was thinking and i take back that thing about resenting beyonce for 'firm brainwashing' my sisters that was way too strong wording. beyonce is sweet, she has some bangers and songs i loved and even one time i met this singer who showed me some beyonce stuff that i'd never heard before like it wasnt a hit and it was a quality song. its close minded to just write her off as a negative thing just because she is so mainstream. i guess thats an attitude i had growing up where it was like everything that people liked was bad and evil. its not true, and beyonce is actually a pretty good example of that.

For an album with 1000 writers and getting praise for its lyrics, there pretty generic and standard pop lyrics, nothing out of the ordinary or unique.

I liked TLOP a lot.

I didn't really care for Lemonade. The message didn't resonate with me and I don't care for the genre. It looks like a lot of the descent is for those simple reasons as well, but people just like to say "it fucking sucks". Corey Feldman's Angelic 2 The Core fucking sucks.
