Jul 19, 2019A cohesive, powerful and innovative album.
Not only manages to sound truly like a "Beyoncé" album (her pen and mind is all over it), but it manages to authentically fit into the Afrobeat genre and in The Lion King's narrative, painting pictures of the film just by listening to it. -

Jul 25, 2019Overall, it works and is another jewel in her crown — one that she, overall, can be proud to call hers.

Jul 24, 2019Ultimately, The Gift is a deft balancing act that weighs personal songwriting flourishes and meaning with Disneycore tropes, as well as a sincere desire to celebrate the music of the African diaspora with its fundamentally commercial obligations.
