    TBH when I played the album the first time I skip through to hear how it sounds, then I actually listen to it track by track I only liked 3 songs by the end of the fist week I gave the album a real listen and TBH Beyoncé is an amazing woman the lyrics the beats. This mad me rate this album my second favorite album from Beyoncé now I can say it my favorite RENAISSANCE is the best albumTBH when I played the album the first time I skip through to hear how it sounds, then I actually listen to it track by track I only liked 3 songs by the end of the fist week I gave the album a real listen and TBH Beyoncé is an amazing woman the lyrics the beats.

    A construção desse álbum é tão incrível, não dá pra escutar o álbum sem querer aproveitar a próxima faixa. A Beyoncé e sua equipe entregaram um trabalho excelente, coeso e bastante coerente! Ansioso pelos próximos atos.

    Álbum muito incomum de Beyoncé. Embora não seja uma obra-prima como a Lemonade, eu gosto de como é bastante incomum e, em alguns casos, estranha. A melhor coisa sobre este álbum é como as músicas são "misturadas" e transitam imediatamente de uma para a próxima; como Confessions on a Dance Floor de Madonna. Favoritos de Ny: Eu sou aquela garota, Alien Superstar e a América tem um problema.Álbum muito incomum de Beyoncé.

    Se suele decir que para gustos, colores. Las opiniones siempre van a ser muy diversas. Sin embargo, lo que sí es indiscutible es que 'the queen is back, by popular demand'. Bienvenida, de nuevo, Queen B; te echábamos de menos     … Expand

    Such an amazing body of work the Queen. She’s truly elevated herself again with a fresh sound. This album is like a dissertation of dance. Blending together so many authentic dance sounds from House, Techno, Hyper-Pop, HipHop, Funk, DISCO, Sissy Bounce, etc. The transitions are some of if not the Best musical transitions we’ve had amongst pop music ever.

    This review contains spoilers, click expand to view. Beyoncé pulls no punches on RENAISSANCE, delivering 62 minutes of sonic joy filled with unabashedly fun, self-assured and sexy lyrics. That the album is fantastic should come as no surprise — it is Beyoncé, after all — but even amid her discography, RENAISSANCE is her most impressive studio accomplishment to date, shifting from her usual R&B, soul and pop to a mix of house, electro dance, funk and disco. RENAISSANCE is an awe-inspiring reminder that Mrs. Knowles-Carter's only real competition is herself.… Expand

    Renaissance é um álbum perfeito e maravilhoso, digno da Beyoncé. A transição entre as músicas é perfeita. É um disco quase que completamente dançante. Todas as músicas são absolutamente incríveis e não possuem nenhum defeito! Beyoncé acertou na medida certa de tudo.

I've played it so far a total of 403 times.. and I don't plan on stopping any time soon.

    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.
