How is it cringeworthy? I still thinks it's amazing, so much energy, especially for a first performance.

I would say 70% african from the beginning to 1:50, and then on to the end 90% african. From 1:50 she signs with a Malian or Guinean singer. The intrument playing like a Guitar is called a Kora, it is common to Sahelian music in Africa.
The dance steps from the beginning to 1:50 are 80% african and from there to the end 90%. The waist shaking of the twins at 1:50 is 100% african. Type Iyanya on search.
I totally Praiz Beyonce for going back to her roots for new material and inspiration.

If there really is a Kora in this song (I can't hear it) then she's this much closer to working with my fave west African artist Toumani Diabate.
