Was all the pain and endless suffering we endured worth today?
For me it DEFINITELY was
The universal acclaim, everybody stanning, the haters seething, the album performing extremely well, and above all, the album itself exceeding all expectations! What more can I say?
How do you feel?
I'm not Beyhive, but I do like Beyoncé and was anticipating this, so I didn't feel as much pain waiting as you stans did, but I feel this was definitely worth the wait as it has shown her artistry and maturity in a deeper level, and for me has solidified her place as a Legend even more.
