Beyoncé: Lemonade

After her raunchy and overtly explicit self-titled visual album released in 2013, Beyonce returns with a more toned down, yet her most empowering work of art to date. The Lemonade visual features complex themes of infidelity that is prevalent throughout the film as viewers are taken through a scorn woman's journey from Intuition to Anger all of which are different stages of emotion a woman goes through when they are cheated on.

The cinematography varies throughout the film but remains to be consistent to the overall experience of the film. Asides from the film, Beyonce's music is both personal and raw as she experiments with different genres of music such as R&B, rock, reggae and even country. Despite the wildly different genres of music Beyonce plays with, much like the cinematography, it all mends together well to produce the over arching story that she intends the viewers to experience.

Beyonce's Lemonade is her best work to date.

I enjoyed this due to the amazing visuals, honestly it is fantastic to see the lighting and cinematography. Any fan of either will enjoy this extremely well put together visual album.

Beyoncé and her team has put a lot of effort into songs, most of which are quite good. My favourite songs were Sorry, All night and 6 Inch. They all used beautiful costumes and lighting in the performance, which just perfectly works together. Some songs are only decent in my opinion, they could have used tweaking to make them a little better.

The narration of poetry is sometimes a bit confusing, as I did not understand most of its relation to the story. Not really a problem with the visual album bu it also kinda annoyed me that her songs aren't available on spotify! I really enjoyed one of the songs and wanted to put it in my playlist. But the visual album is great and deserves the praise it got.

I've watched this film 100 times already and it amazes me every time! I like how raw this body of work is. Ive never seen anything like it. Black is King was amazing too.

A musical and cinematic masterpiece that has stood the test of time, and should be required viewing - not just for those who claim to be music fans, but for all who have experienced betrayal, yearning, heartbreak, anger, denial, apathy, reconciliation, and joy.

In LEMONADE, beyoncé seamlessly weaves together the stages of grief via a cohesive sequence of poems, songs, and cinematic acts. Each song flows into the other as she deals with each stage of grief.

The heart wrenching poems and innovate music are showcased alongside incredibly moving films that feature everything from a suicide attempt, to african rituals, to drowning, to a giant monster truck rampage, to a fire, to a bus/house party.

The film highlights the intersection of generational trauma, anti-blackness, misogyny and heartbreak in a masterful way that was never before seen, and has yet to be exceeded.

This is truly a masterpiece. The music, the visuals, the spoken word. Everything is on par. There are so many feelings felt throughout Lemonade. I've never seen anything quite like it. Beyonce has changed the entire music game forever. I highly recommend that EVERYONE watches this, it is a life changing experience.
