‘Lemonade’ is an altogether different beast. A beast so intricately constructed it requires repeated viewings to digest all there is on offer.
Quote:
‘Hold Up’ is a precursor to the demonic Jack White collaboration ‘Don’t Hurt Yourself’, the heady delirium before the storm. The latter is a testament to Beyoncé’s versatility; no pop artist in the world right now would be able to tackle a full-bodied rock number whilst retaining her bluesy undertones
The result is an album in which millions will find their own struggles reflected back to them, as therapeutic as it is utterly dazzling. If you've ever been handed lemons, you need Lemonade. (Columbia)
