    Look Beyoncé is an icon, however a lot of her work is overrated. Break My Soul is not a good song and definitely no where near her best. People in it up just because it’s Beyoncé. She can do better than this..

    the whole album is copied and pasted. I kinda found the album to cringe not going to lie.

    The samples are too much !!! And the songwriters are over 150! Its not her sound too , she just have to go back to doing the sound she can do .

    Terrible album, her worst. I'm shocked that years later she produces such inexpressive material. The lyrics are just a nightmare. Poor Beyoncé, her talent has completely left her.

    This project is very beautiful. She gave her all in this and it's very experimental. 10/10

    This review contains spoilers, click expand to view. I know a lot of people who enjoyed Beyoncé’s previous works will hate to hear my opinion, but Renaissance is her weakest and most repetitious album so far. If one says she was aiming for consistency, I’ll say that she has outdone herself in this goal and made an incredibly lyrically and melodically boring album. When I was listening to it for the first time, I wondered how such a talented person like Beyonce who once made such bangers as Crazy in love, Single Ladies, Halo, Irreplaceable, and Run the world, could allow to release something so mediocre.

    You all need to STOP PRAISING THIS WOMAN, she is selling her NAME and you're all falling for it because she's Beyonce. If it was any other artist with the same exact songs it would have flopped. Please it's getting ridiculous how y'all eat her music up when it's complete trash.

    Inovador, arriscado, experimental, sexy e com uma produção impecável Beyoncé entrega o MELHOR álbum de 2022 indo de frente em vários gêneros diferentes como o Dance-Hall até o AfroBeat ou Neo-Soul, é uma obra prima em resumo.

    Is she never going to grow up? Still the same sound, which are songs with so little melody, imagination and range, you might as well be in a coma. Repetitive nonsense. Still dresses like a circus trapeze act. The lack of creative evolution and development missed her entirely.....and oy...this album cover is cringworthy. She's just embarrassing.

    This album is unique. Beyoncé elevate herself. The production and the vocals unify in a perfect mix.
    The message and the celebration behind this record is so important and necessary.

    El disco está OK pero siento que va a ser el que menos escuché de toda la discografía de Beyonce junto con dangerously in fillers

    From her incredible vocals to the eclectic, flawless production, this is easily Beyoncé's strongest, most cohesive album. To think it's just the first of a three-act run is mind-blowing.

    Not anywhere close to my favorite Beyoncé album. I know this is an unpopular opinion, and maybe it needs time to REALLY grow on me (like a lot), but it doesn’t compare to Lemonade.

    This review contains spoilers, click expand to view. A very messy and incoherrent release drom Beyonce, drawing a very sharp contrast to her previous major release Lemonade. She tries to experiment with a new sound and can’t keep up, and it leaves a bad taste in the mouth. Despite Virgos Groove, Summer Renaissance and to an extent, Cuff It and Energy being very solid strongpoints, the rest of the track quickly dilute this by being terrible, the worst being Alien Superstar. The lyrics are just laughable, and the transitions aren’t really smooth as everyone makes them out to be. Expand

    This was an awful album. The writing was terrible. She needed help from a million other writers and still managed to make a basic album. She used to sing beautifully, but now she sounds so... hefty. Safe to say I will never be streaming another Beyonce album. She might want to consider retirement.

    This review contains spoilers, click expand to view. It's not a groundbreaking album. I as a beystan, feel ashamed of this album. She really went downhill if we compare it to lemonade. Now I understand why this isn't selling worldwide, and not even in the United States. This album is a big NO for me. It would've been more interesting if she had put her sister or daughter in that album. Beyoncé is out of ideas for almost nothing. Expand

    Renaissance derives its meaning through its diverse soundscape, which, due to Beyoncé’s astute curation, becomes a statement about letting the music speak for itself.
