    Controversial album but by far the best representation of the type of things we don’t always talk about here in the United States. The music is a life changer! Highly recommend to everyone

    Best work by Beyoncè. So well thought, coherent.
    I still can't believe she didn't receive AOTY at the Grammys, in 2017.

    Es increíble como todas las canciones tienes objetivos similares pero al mismo tiempo, cada canción es completamente diferente musicalmente. Explota bastantes géneros en los que no habíamos visto a Beyoncé, y además, lo hace de una forma extraordinaria. No hay álbum hasta la fecha que se le parezca.

Honestly an exemplary album, dealing with a plethora of important cultural, political, social and historical issues surrounding inter-generational trauma, the black household and family dynamic; infidelity, police brutality as well as countless others. Beyoncé is at her most potent artistically, exploring herself and these concepts both musically and visually. A truly unique and unprecedented masterpiece.… Expand

I just learned the Album was a Tidal exlusive and still was number one with all songs charting the billboard and gueess what? No promotion. Amazing work @beyonce. Argueably the best album of all time.

    One of the best albums of all time. 4 years after its release I am still discovering new Easter eggs in both the music and the film. Check out the Dissect Podcast on Spotify! (I'm not affiliated with them btw lol) It's utterly mind-blowing to see how much Beyoncé incorporated into just 12 tracks. Completely deserving of the Peabody Award it received.

She experiments with a variety of sounds including rock, country, reggae, electropop, soul, funk and trap music while still being firmly rooted in RnB. The production and songwriting is great and i hope she delivers another album soon.

A grandeza desse álbum vai além de suas faixas inspiradoras, Beyoncé conseguiu encaixar pelo menos três genêros dentro de um único álbum: rock, country e r&b e fez isso de forma exitosa, mesmo com a diversidade de ritmos, o álbum soa coeso por conta das letras e principalmente, por causa do conceito. Mostrando seus vocais impecáveis, Beyoncé criou o que pode ser álbum que vai ser eternamente lembrado por sua essência conceitual e principalmente, pela capacidade da Beyoncé de se reinventar e criar canções que possam servir de abraço para pessoas que se identificam com ela.

I decided to give this one a chance since it's on so many lists, and I must say it is indeed a good album. Standout tracks for me were Sandcastles, Pray you catch me (excellent opener) and Sorry. These are going on my playlist. The interlude with James Blake was a stunning piece of work too. II've loved Beyonce's music in Destiny's Child but I could never quite get into her solo music.

I'm used to longer albums so at 45 mins this album should've felt short and sweet to me. But weaker tracks were interspersed throughout the album so it was a slightly bumpy ride. An emotional and beautiful but slightly bumpy ride. In my final thoughts about this album, I really want to commend Beyonce's vocal performance on this album.

    The best album of all time. This is a real masterpiece and nobody can disagree with that. The visuals that comes with it… I don’t have enough word to describe how incredible this record is.

Perfect storytelling through out the album as Beyoncé navigates infidelity within her marriage making it relatable to a wide audience of people seeking guidance in their own relationship, all while paying homage to the black southern culture she grew up around. The production on this album is incredible especially on "Love Drought" which is one of her most experimental tracks from the vocals, production and lyrics as we see a side of Beyoncé that we don't often see; not a girl power enthusiast we often see in her previous songs, but a woman feeling vulnerable as she has ultimately been betrayed… Expand

    Lemonade sigue siendo a mi parecer hasta hoy día la cima artística que ha llegado a tocar Beyoncé. Tanto musical como visualmente, un álbum que nos deja entrar al interior de la vida íntima de la artista, de su lucha diaria con sus emociones como mujer, de su relación intensa con su marido Jay Z y un punto que hasta este álbum no se había cuestionado, o al menos no artísticamente, elLemonade sigue siendo a mi parecer hasta hoy día la cima artística que ha llegado a tocar Beyoncé.

    Esse álbum é conceitual, é o significado de perfeição. É uma obra prima!! Os sons cativantes, os toques, as melodias, além da altas críticas sociais e os visuais. É uma álbum que te mostra a realidade, é esclarecedor, é monumental!

    Lemonade hits hard. Beyonce has chosen to portray herself like this, and those choices are bold, powerful and at times, properly shocking. [#361, p.110]

    Never short on vocal confidence, here, she trades divadom for arresting, unconventional shapes. [Jul 2016, p.69]
