n @ "sophistication". you stan for Rihbola boo. The notion of sophistication as a superior artistic trait has been outdated for decades anyway.
B'Day is an expression of raw energy and emotion, southern grit and attitude - vocally and sonically(so cohesive, ugh queen). The production is amazing and uncompromising... it's like a hip-hop-infused amalgam of hard funk and organic soul, but expressed in a modern context. It's also such a greatly entertaining listening experience.. I just love it. It's a
brilliant album, her best actually. It's a masterpiece.
And this is the objective truth.
