what if i ask the hive members to come through with at least 8 lyrics from different songs, and every single one of them needs to be addressing race issues?

can they handle it?

reminder: a cheating husband isnt considered a race issue, so there it goes 90% of your source material

yes, im quoting myself

sunshine, where u at girl. i dare you.

Like much work that has emerged in the age of Black Lives Matter, we are to read the literal relationship turmoil as a metaphor for black women's relationship to modern systems of oppression. By offering up a prayer first, Lemonade spurns from the outset the unrelenting hate-consumption of black women's hurt and anger that other media, notably reality television, encourage. Instead, with Beyoncé's account of her black girl alchemist journey as only a starting point, Lemonade concerns itself with legitimating and creating space for a range of black women's emotions, pushing back against the generational curse of hurt patriarchs and unrelenting state actors who refuse to stop hurting the women and girls who sacrifice the most and love them best.

I guess I just took for granted that everyone could see the layered work in Lemonade. Considering she goes to great lengths to make it obvious for even the most oblivious people to detect by the way she dresses her performances of the songs.

El Mismo Sol is forgotten. Sofía is bigger than Alvaro Soler, if you get what I mean.

El Mismo Sol (f/ J. Global) is like his signature song though.

back then you needed physical single releases to chart and many artists skipped those altogether

I'm not mocking her but the disparity between her success on those 2 charts is crazy.

That sounds like something that Beyonce "professor" would write Liberal media

She made an album about her marriage problems. End of story.

imagery and poetry is alluding to those race issues

GIRL, WE ARE TALKING ABOUT THE ****ING ALBUM. AUDIO. NOT THE VIDEO PART.

You can't separate them. Like at all. That's not the point, else she wouldn't premiere the movie first and then the album. Lol.

I mean, you CAN physically detach the audio from the visual if you want and then you have your relationship album, but with the full weight of the context it was presented in, it's definitely about race manifested through a relationship.

I guess 1989 is about LGBT issues because she sings "you can want who you want, boys and boys and girls and girls".

idk im getting some gay vibes from I Know Places too. Most of the lyrics fit well with that, even though it's probably just about a celebrity couple.
