    If, after Homecoming, and songs like Mood 4 Eva, you thought Beyoncé could not reach a new level of confidence and bravado, think again. This is Beyoncé at her boldest and most irreverent. This album feels like Beyoncé swallowed the essence of an illegal rave in downtown New York before conducting a hotbox session with the spirits of Prince and MJ. This woman has never sounded better. Her new lower-register is rich and chocolatey - while her highs have become breathy and soaring to such an extent they border on the supernatural. A huge nod to the producers and sequencers who stitched each track so seamlessly, it's almost sacrilegious not to listen to it in its entirety each time you want to indulge.
    Beyoncé has achieved something truly stunning that sounds both vintage, abstract, and ahead of itself. Lovely. Just lovely.    … Expand

She touches on so many topics but does it in Beyoncé way. Renaissance is relatable to everyone. She is breaking the fourth wall and letting everyone into this renaissance club where you are free to be yourself. Renaissance is telling a story that we all can relate and as you continue to listen you continue to discover more and more not just about the songs but about yourself. Beyoncé is the only artist that tops herself over and over again. Each album she puts out just gets better. This is just the first act so act ii and act iii is really bout to change everything just like every Beyoncé album. Thank you Beyoncé for allowing us to be free, to love, to heal, to give us understanding through this masterpiece that is Renaissance that will live on for decades to come. We love you Queen … Expand

    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.
