June 21, 20223 yr Surprised by the negative comments as on one listen I thought it was the best thing I'd heard from her in ages :lol: The hook is really good!
June 21, 20223 yr It feels a LOT longer than it is, which is never a good sign. It’s not as bad as I had expected, but I don’t think I’d miss never hearing it again. It’s got all the DNA of great 90s house, but it feels overly diluted and boring.
June 21, 20223 yr The thing that I love the most - is how much of an event it is when she comes back.. and I feel that really started with the ‘Beyoncé’ album. She’s one of the main headlines on sky news .. and everywhere else.. not all ya faves could ever! This is a sound I wanted from her- this is an album I wanted from her
June 21, 20223 yr I saw somewhere else said it already get played on Radio 1 and apparently it's a little bit difference from the released version. Edited June 21, 20223 yr by deepinside
June 21, 20223 yr Eh, it's okay. I was expecting more but at the same time I've heard worse from her.
June 21, 20223 yr Had a couple of listens now... it's better and growing but I still don't like it all that much. I just think I'm over that sample, the horrendous hype-men and the chorus is repetitive in an annoying way rather than being catchy. Like I said, it's somewhat growing so I'll stick with it and see where I am with it in a few days. I actually quite like the verses.
June 21, 20223 yr How many times can we sample Show Me Love, I’m so tired Love the idea of Beyonce clocking in for her 9-5 shift
June 21, 20223 yr It's just 'quite good' for me, certainly interesting to see her release something so commercial after so long again. At least it's not a full sample of Show Me Love, just a couple of notes, although surely thousands of dance songs in the 90s used the same keyboard preset, she could have said it was a sample of any one of those. It's a little plodding though, I was waiting for a killer switch up halfway through that never comes, as it's otherwise just a two note bassline.
June 21, 20223 yr It just sounds so lazy, if she'd done this 5-6 years ago it probably would've sounded exciting but so many have done this recently and better. Whilst it's not great, I agree she definitely has done a lot worse in the past.
June 21, 20223 yr Actually growing on me a lot already, a lot of fun! Think there will be better on the album but it is so joyous.
June 21, 20223 yr Love the idea of Beyonce clocking in for her 9-5 shift Sia's not going to keep herself captive
June 21, 20223 yr I'm liking it! It definitely feels more "throwaway" than Beyoncé's music has been in ages but this is far more likely to be something I return to. The sample is a surprisingly obvious choice for her but I think she makes it work and the Big Freedia sample isn't offputting at all to me.
June 21, 20223 yr I love her vocals and flow on this, but do wish she had gone a little further with it. I'm sure I'll be bopping massively by the end of the day. Had a couple of listens now... it's better and growing but I still don't like it all that much. I just think I'm over that sample, the horrendous hype-men and the chorus is repetitive in an annoying way rather than being catchy. Like I said, it's somewhat growing so I'll stick with it and see where I am with it in a few days. I actually quite like the verses. I do think Big Freedia actually elevates the production — it would have been a little too faceless without the sample.
June 21, 20223 yr It is definitely not as bad as some of these comments make it out to be... but its super mediocre. theres not much to it, its super basic. i can see it being a top 10 hit, but i don't think it'll be a #1 contender at all. hopefully theres some better releases from the album to come
June 21, 20223 yr i think the comments come from an expentance from Beyonce... when in reality this is a sub-bar track with a generic sample that has been done to death. It's mad to think this is the same person who did 'Flawless', 'Deja Vu', 'Get Me Bodied'. This feels lazy and radio-pandering and Beyonce hasn't pandered to the radios since 'I Am Sasha Fierce'. It's by no means a bad song...
