    Beyoncé’s ability to adapt, experiment and conquer sounds is unbelievable. She makes you want to get up and dance. The album makes you feel all the good feelings you deserve. It’s time to hit the dance floor and it doesn’t matter who’s watching because you’re " THAT GIRL ".

    She IS music. She IS thee Mother of Pop Culture. She IS the embodiment of what it means to be an artist. I do not know a better woman. I don’t KNOW. This album was for people like me. Black and gay as hell. We talk about being “seen” but BABY, to be HEARD?! We were all up and through that album. An ode to Ballroom and the dance floors of the past. I’m elated with this album.

    Masterpiece.
    Is so hard to have an entire 16 song album with no skips. Every song is masterfully produced and the arrangements are carefully design to truly give a nostalgic feeling but at the same time futuristic.
    Usually on an album you have clear standout songs but on RENAISSANCE is almost impossible to pick favorites due to the richness of each track. This album is going to be on    Masterpiece.

    This album is going to be on forever repeat and will definitely be played on every party, club or happy moment.

    A very cohesive project within the purpose of taking us to a club from the 90's and 80's. The perfect transitions between the tracks gives the feeling that the album is a great song, you don't want to stop dancing. Beyoncé always serving quality in her projects and this is just one more.

    Beyoncé entrega mais uma vez um álbum coeso e consiste, mostrando mais uma vez que só uma artista do calibre dela é capaz. Renaissance é o melhor álbum de 2022.

    Perfeccionismo admirável, todas as músicas se conectam e dão uma sequência muito gostosa de se ouvir, você termina e quer voltar do inicio tudo de novo. É diferente do que tem sido entregue na atualidade, músicas longas, com muita letra e vocais de anjo, fora a incontrolável vontade de dançar conforme o ritmo, sem regras, apenas sentindo a batida. É livre, é espontâneo, é inovador. BeyoncéPerfeccionismo admirável, todas as músicas se conectam e dão uma sequência muito gostosa de se ouvir, você termina e quer voltar do inicio tudo de novo.

The production, samples, experimental sounds yet instant classic, the tributes and homages paid, the thoughtfulness, the gayness, the fem-dom-soft versatility, the freshness, and most importantly, the positive message we all need during this difficult ass time.… Expand

    I have no words to describe how much I love RENAISSANCE!! This album was an experience that I will never forget, this is one of those albums that I wish I could go back in time and relive my first listen over and over again! This album is different from her previous releases! There’s Dance music, hip hop, R&B, there’s disco influences and nuances throughout plus underground EDM & sheI have no words to describe how much I love RENAISSANCE!! This album was an experience that I will never forget, this is one of those albums that I wish I could go back in time and relive my first listen over and over again! This album is different from her previous releases! There’s Dance music, hip hop, R&B, there’s disco influences and nuances throughout plus underground EDM & she seemed to have delved in experimental music! When she said she felt free and liberated creating this 1st album of a 3-act album project, B wasn’t lying! This album is everything you could ever want or need from a Beyoncé album and more! I’m so proud of her and this album! I LOVE this new album! Plus, never go into a new music release with preconceived expectations, that’s what let’s you down with listening to a new album, because you had an idea of what YOU thought the album WAS or SHOULD HAVE been! That’s why I love this album because i didn’t have expectations and I just let Queen B take me on the ride of my life and dance the night away at Club Renaissance!! There’s no way for me to rate this album out of 100 because for me, it broke the scale!!… Expand

    A continuous mix of hedonism, virtuosity, scholarship and, as one of her disco antecedents would have it, Good Times. [Nov 2022, p.84]

    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.
