Don't know how trustworthy it is but Spin says they have industry insider saying the album is only going to be on Tidal.

Update: Per an industry insider, Lemonade will be a TIDAL exclusive in perpetuity, as in yes, it will be exclusively a TIDAL release forever.

 

[Lil'DigiOp]

The video intro to Forward has me in tears.

 

[3phemeral]

Is what's on HBO the same thing as what I see on Tidal?

 

[Vire]

This Tidal fuckery again?! Jay plz.

 

[Sammy Samusu]

Sorry is amazing. Serena helps make it even better.

I'm not surprised, tbh.

She is gonna start her tour in a few days. All these promotion will just help her sell more tickets.
She doesn't need the CD sale for now.

[Vire]

Why the hell would you cheat on Beyonce, damn she is so beautiful.

 

[Rastafarian42]

Pretty dope album on first listen.

 

[Lil'DigiOp]

Why the hell would you cheat on Beyonce, damn she is so beautiful.

Its gonna be a couple weeks until people aren't confused anymore...


The visual album was beautiful. I loved it. Gotta check out the actual album now. Visual album explains why it's called Lemonade too.

BTW, HBO has this for one day only, watch it now folks!!!!

 

[robotrock]

Oh what the hell, this is an album? Thought it'd just be a single.

LOL

Oh what the hell, this is an album? Thought it'd just be a single.

Beyonce don't release no singles. She is an album artist.

 

[Vire]

The only person taking a bigger L than Jay tonight is Kanye. Because she just shit all over TLOP.

This is a very good first listen.

 

[Leona Lewis]

I love the fact that she's finally working with black, female songwriter and producers.

For instance, the beautiful Wynter Gordon wrote three tracks on the album

 

[Meowster]

6 Inch would be so much better without Abel's weak and straining vocals.

 

[BanGy.nz]

Beyonce don't release no singles. She is an album artist.

She doesn't even need albums at this point.

 

[3phemeral]

That grit she uses in Don't Hurt Yourself is LIFE.

 

[Barzul]

Jay got me y'all used up all my free trials.

 

[Vire]

For the people who have Tidal. Does the album have the same speaking interludes included in the song like the HBO special?

 

[torre_avenue]

Beyonce don't release no singles. She is an album artist.

Wasn't Formation the single of this record?

 

[Sammy Samusu]

Y'all best be ready for World War III.

 

[3phemeral]

For the people who have Tidal. Does the album have the same speaking interludes included in the song like the HBO special?

Doesn't seem like it. Listening to 4 songs now and haven't heard any interludes.

 

[Leona Lewis]

Wasn't Formation the single of this record?

She released it as an unlisted video on YouTube. A single has to actually be sent to radio.

 

[3phemeral]

Low how she emulates that electric guitar vibe with her lower register on 6 Inch. Not sold on it completely, though.

 

[hughesta]

god damn Don't Hurt Yourself is fucking AWESOME

 

[Ran rp]

i'mma need this on blu-ray

 

[Sammy Samusu]

From TIDAL:

Today Beyoncé unleashes her new visual album, LEMONADE, a conceptual project based on every woman’s journey of self knowledge and healing, featuring 12 new songs and a corresponding short film. Watch and listen to it now – only on TIDAL.

I wonder if she has a "normal" video for each song.

 

[3phemeral]

From TIDAL:

I just found it. It's compiled in to one hour-long video. Watching it now.

 

[Wilsongt]

Hopefully she'll release her music on a normal platform one day and not that Tidal bullshit.

 

[Angelus Errare]

Hopefully she'll release her music on a normal platform one day and not that Tidal bullshit.

But...Tidal is a normal platform.

 

[perfectchaos007]

Hopefully she'll release her music on a normal platform one day and not that Tidal bullshit.

Formation was released a couple months ago and it's still Tidal exclusive so I'm not going to hold my breath

 

[Cesare Borgia]

But...Tidal is a normal platform.

At this point the hate is transparent. There's something going on here, and I don't know exactly what it is. But I think I know what it is.

 

[Sammy Samusu]

I just found it. It's compiled in to one hour-long video. Watching it now.

That's the short-movie that aired on HBO. I want regular music videos on VEVO.

 

[studyguy]

Tuned into HBO to watch GGG boxing and got Beyonce for like 15m. Was so confused.

 

[Galang]

The gay couple during the last video are perfect! So cute!

 

[GringoSuave89]

I can't see this being a Tidal exclusive forever, but who knows? I think Beyoncé fans would riot harder than Kanye fans, and TLOP still hit other sites.

 

[3phemeral]

That's the short-movie that aired on HBO. I want regular music videos on VEVO.

AH, just now realizing it. It's beautifully shot.

Re-listening to Pray and the strings are really digging into me.

 

[Sammy Samusu]

I can see Love Drought being my favorite track off the album, it sounds so much like a Mike Will Made It track.

 

[Good Job Bob]

At this point the hate is transparent. There's something going on here, and I don't know exactly what it is. But I think I know what it is.

People find it obnoxious when super rich artists lock away their new content on a music streaming platform absolutely no one uses because they have a personal financial stake in said music streaming platform.

Apparently it was Mike Dean. Go figure.

[perfectchaos007]

I don't sub to apple music, Tidal, Yahoo! music, Pandora, Spotify, or any paid streaming sites. I just like to buy my music a-la-carte on itunes.

 

[Dreams-Visions]

20 minutes in, this shit is spectacular.
