    The Knowles sisters are SO creative.
    Just like her sister she has created her own genre of music that no one can recreate. Let’s not compare the sisters but rather recognise how creative and smart they are by creating their own genre of music.

    This whole album changed my life. It's been a source of comfort, introspection, and an exploration into parts of the black experience I couldn't put words to. I meditated to it, I tripped to it, I listened to it while I was in another country and needed some familiar comfort. I'm very happy to have the ability to experience it. Honestly, the musicality of every single track is gorgeous. They're a rich tapestry of sound and some of the nuances only stand out with good headphones or good sound systems. Shes so intensely skilled and I hope she makes more music someday.
    That said.
    It is annoying as hell Solange's officiant YT channel has comments turned off. We cant even have a good discussion about the music there. I understand wanting the art to speak for itself, but UA-cam is more about a communal experience, imo. It ain't like the artist has to read the comments or anything. Sheesh.

    Why did she do that to us?!!! Her live performance is punishing us in a way words can't describe with the ethereal fluid lyrical & audio notes and echoes. I love studio recordings perfectly on albums but the live performance which has subtle differences that show raw power in living talents and adlibs showing like art work in progression evolutions and derivatives that in themselves are unique masterpieces!!! Now that last hanging riff note synonymous with the amazing sound arrangement and melody of the song just fully exploding/ releasing is what gives those innate involuntary goosebumps every time you hear them. Instantly classic, instantly iconic.

    Absolutely incredible. I am so in awe of Solange's raw soul and talent, and soooooooooo in love with her as a woman. Though I'm certain she hates to be compared to her sister, it's impossible not to notice the stark difference between the two. Beyonce' is an amazing artist with astounding skill, but Solange touches the soul and ignites the spirit. I love you, Solange, and hopefully, one day my band will open for you and back you on this very song (my personal favorite).

      There's no reason to always compare her to her sister. They are both great each in their own special way. For me Beyonce is a great performer with a voice that comes out of her soul. That woman sings and dances her soul out every time she's on the stage.
      On the other hand Solange has a much more liberated flow. She's more artistic and more avant garde than her sister. Definitely a unique and necessary presence in the modern music world.
