    Just a heads up. Watching the Lemonade videos out of order and out of context is going to be weird and confusing experience. Freedom was the second to last song on in the Lemonade Film so you basically just saw the end of the movie which is why you dont really know whats happening.

    The live version on the BET awards, they really perform this. On stage dancing in water. Yes she has a country album out, it came out the end of March and went straight to number on the country list. You guys haven't seen nothing yet, I told you she can do everything. Great reaction, bring them on, I'll be waiting

    Coachella doesn't own the rights to Homecoming on Netflix, Beyonce and park wood entertainment do b/c she offered to be paid less to perform as long as she gets all the video rights. With that said you guys should be fine to upload it to UA-cam as other reactors have.

    Guys, don't split up the lemonade videos you're going to be confused. Every song and video flows in a certain sequence and you have to watch it in order. Just watch lemonade film then do Coachella homecoming film. Coachella setlist is long you're gonna be reacting to each individual song for a while before you get to the actual film

    I know others are going to say this but you guys should really watch the Lemonade film instead of watching the videos separately. One of the things that makes what Beyonce does so special is that she is very meticulous and deliberate in creating art that tells a story.She’s discussed in interviews how challenging it is that no one wants to sit and enjoy an album anymore…people just want quick hits and singles and she is the antithesis of this…she creates experiences that are really beautiful journeys if you’re willing.

Also they perform it running through water symbolizing the underground railroad and how slaves used to escape running through water to throw off the dogs. A very moving performance...But you also can't watch the Lemonade movie out of order, it won't make sense.
    I'm sure that by now you know play country album is called Cowboy Carter and it's awesome👍

    @andreabrown4541 4 місяці тому

    The water theme is a recurrent motif in the Lemonade Film, and it changes throughout. You'd need to understand black history to understand the poetry of Freedom as well as the imagery - yep, those black women are on a plantation, and they're my ancestors. But to really immerse yourself in the experience, it helps to understand Kubler-Ross's stages of grief and some of the cinematic techniques used in the video (like alienation).

    The funny thing is for the Beyoncé country album she didn’t even have to change/force an accent. She naturally has a southern twang so it’s very natural.
    The country album is well received and has been met with some nasty comments that I don’t even wish to acknowledge or repeat.
    She’s an artist people try to put in a box and she refuses to

    Y’all are in for a ride. I love seeing people “discover” Beyoncé. A lot of non-fans are stuck in the Single Ladies era and have no idea who she is as an artist. She really is likely the greatest living performer we have right now (watch how other singers/celebrities react to her) and she’s definitely in the Top Tier level of greatest performers of all time up there with Michael and Prince.

    Y'all should react to Daddy's Lessons and Don't Hurt Yourself next. Both songs are her Lemonade album, which Freedom is one as well. Lemonade is her most critically acclaimed album to this date. Those two songs are two different genres as well, Country and rock, which I think you two will enjoy.

    It almost feels illegal and sacrilegious to watch any Lemonade video out of order. Watching videos up to the Superbowl was a good idea but don't think it'll work for Coachella.

    For her country album, a lot of people (white and black) are mad becauae they either think she isnt country (although she is from Houston and always had an accent) or she should go back the r&b. Although a lot of people are being negative, ALOT of people love it! It's one of her best albums to a lot of people, she even said its her best musicel she has ever made. On the album she does opera, surf rock, country, rock, etc! And you CANNOT watch the lemonade film like, that is disrespectful 😂! I understand why your doing it, but just do a different version of the songs like a performance, music video, or audio. But great reaction!
