    TERRIBLE ALBUM! Not a single good song on it. This woman is so overrated. This is as trash as Adele's new album. How can anyone like this is beyond me.

    I loved Beyonce's previous 2 albums to death, they were absolutely magical, I've also seen here live just a few years ago. But man this album is boring. There's like 3 great tracks (including the last track) but everything else is just repetitive, uninspired drums and the same damn topics as 2000-2005..

    With boring, generic lyricism and often grating production, Beyonce tries and fails to re-create some of her earlier work in an attempt to once again put herself in the limelight of the music landscape, but fails to do so like she has previously, a testament to her inability to stay relevant in todays music world.

    One of the worst albums I've ever heard and it's only praised because of the name of the artist attached to it. the production sounds like those very cheap YouTube remixes, vocally it's disappointing (my dear Beyoncé you are a VOCALIST, why do you mumble rap for most of the whole thing?) the lyrics are stupid and most of the songs sound the same.

    Seeing Queen B trying something so unique (for her) is amazing! I'm so pleased!

    You're always good!! However, the songs (even if structured) look the same, without much surprise or innovation with each track.

    I think it is more of the same that we are used to, and the message does not match what it shows

    Beyonce a pu réinventer son art et a réussi un coup de maitre avec celui-ci.
    RENNAISSANCE IS BAE!

    six years of waiting... this is literally the worst album that could have been released. the lyrics are just about how unique and number one she is, but in reality it's just more tiktok crap. unfortunately or fortunately, Beyonce has been dead creatively for a long time.

    Garbage album.. she's just overhyped by delusionals. Nothing by her is loved by general public across the globe..

    Very unusual album from Beyonce. Although not a masterpiece like Lemonade was, I like how it is pretty unusual and in some cases strange. The best thing about this album is how the songs are "mixed" and transit immediatelly from one to next one; like Madonna's Confessions on a Dance Floor. Ny favourites: I'm That Girl, Alien Superstar and America Has A Problem.

    Absolutely awful album, idk what Beyoncé was thinking with this, she’s so unoriginal, it’s time for her to retire and go take care of her kids Majority of the album is just filled with samples all these writers on the credits and the lyrics sound like they was written by a kid in kindergarten, i guess Jay-z pay roll couldn’t afford better writers.. Beyoncé you suck balls

    It’s a beyoncé album there is obvious hype around it. I was waiting with anticipation for this album but upon hearing the lead single was very worried. The lead single, to be blunt, was awful. The album was not awful but it was not good.it was not cohesive but at the same time all the songs dragged along the same way. it was not shocking and there was no innovation in there. the vocalsIt’s a beyoncé album there is obvious hype around it.

    Ridiculously overrated album. Beyonce could fart on 10 songs with her 100 producers, & it'd be considered as AOTY

    A continuous mix of hedonism, virtuosity, scholarship and, as one of her disco antecedents would have it, Good Times. [Nov 2022, p.84]

    Beyoncé's seventh solo album is a flawlessly structured feast. [Oct 2022, p.25]

    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.
