Beyoncé - Pretty Hurts

Pretty Hurts by Beyoncé Song Info

A frank and very personal take on what beauty is, the Sia-written opening track of Beyoncé’s groundbreaking self-titled album offers the very first point of social relevancy in the record: perfection and the impossible standard of beauty set in society is corrupting the nation. We all try so hard to reach that singular, narrow-minded idea of “perfection” despite the fact that beauty itself is subjective. Directed by Melina Matsoukas, the first video in the so-called “visual album” has Bey playing a beauty pageant contestant who does everything in her power to look flawless — but still can’t achieve perfection. “Well I think we definitely wanted to speak to as many women as we could and all the pain and struggle that we go through as women to maintain this impossible standard of beauty,” Matsoukas explained to MTV News. “We wanted to give it a darker edge and take it there and not give you the Disney version of that struggle. And Beyoncé was more than willing to go that far with it. And I applaud her for that.” At one point, a frustrated Bey knocks down her wall of trophies, which is supposed “to represent knocking down those beauty standards and falling into a victim of that.” In the end, even as hard as Miss Third Ward tries to beat out her competition, she loses. That idea came straight from the pop star. “Originally, I had her win and I had it mean nothing,” she said. “And then she didn’t want to win. And then, actually, the woman who wins is an albino woman. And we thought it was really important and interesting to break those ideas of what the classic beauty standards would be and to do this with this beautiful albino woman, I thought was really great. And to show ‘Yeah she’s not perfect, she doesn’t always win and you put your best foot forward and you may still lose.’”

- Oh no

I don't know what happened but whatever it was resulted in the worst music Beyonce has ever put out. So disappointed.

- Amazinggg

she's amazing the album is speechless not enough good words only beyonce could do this

- The Queen Bey Stings again

Great album love it #different #real #raw

- Yoncé

All on his mouth like Liquor x

- Album of the year

Don't know where to begin. Some real stand out singles, favs are the urban leaning "drunk in love" pop anthem "xo" and the heartbreaking ode to her miscarriage "heaven". The album does require you to listen to it in its entirety otherwise it can sound disjointed. Overall it's a masterpiece and a sure number one. Her stealthy release is unprecedented, the queen is changing the game and delivering her music to fans direct. Stans will love it, but she is also widening her scope and audience with some monster collabs with drake and frank ocean. This album is EPIC. Must have.

- 👑🐝

She's just perfect. Nothing more

- WOOOHOOO

best album ever I'm the biggest fan she's outdone herself<3

- BRAVE & BEAUTIFUL

Genius. Amazing. Fresh. LONG LIVE QUEEN BEY!

- Beyonc'e

Omfg! This album is amazing I can't stop listening to it 😱 must buy!

- Amazing!

Such an amazing album, although...how do I get the digital booklet? :/ heeeelp

- Love it

I love her new sound, she is amazing everyone must download!

- So much more than I can handle!!!

This album is everything I need at the moment! Its refreshingly diverse! It feels as though theres seriously a song on here for everybody! And B's typically empowering message carried throughout the album just cements her genius as a musician. The video for 'Superpower ft Frank Ocean' is so beautiful. The composition of 'Rocket' blew me away, and her vocals feel more soulful and powerful than ever. Then theres the pure thrill of seeing the nasty side of Beyonce on tracks like '***Flawless', 'Yonce' and 'Partition'. Her disco/glam/dancefloor 70's winner 'Blow' keeps us happy with our retro fix and on top of ALL OF THIS GOODNESS 'Blue ft Blue Ivy' just raises the tone of the project to its completion. Her pop competitors stand no chance against this amazing artist endeavor I am gonna find it hard to stop repeating this album over and over, THANKS BEYONCE!!!

- Hmm

Love Beyoncé but I'm just not a huge fan of this album.

- BEST ALBUM EVER

EVERYONE DOWNLOAD IT COS ITS AMAZING AND THE VISUAL EFFECTS ARE ON. POINTE.

- NEW ZEALAND FAN LOVES BEY

How does she manage to acomplish such greatness? shes a wife, a mother, a buisness woman, currently on tour but still manages to produce such an amazing authentic album with videos to match. Heaven brung me to tears and made me remember all the loved ones taking from me too soon, but as Bey says "Heaven couldn't wait for you", Too true #thegooddieyoung

- mm nehh

All the songs sound the same. Prefer her last album to this one.

- Amazing!!

So good! Love it and love her (:

- Perfection

BEYONCÉ is the best album out. The quality of the videos and the sound of the songs are perfect. It's so nice to see a artist who has been around since 1997 to still come out with something totally different to the other albums before this one. Well done Beyoncé, you deserve every bit of joy and success you get from the album. Number 1 in 105 countries is a true record.

- Queen B :)

this album is amazing!, I like how shes trying out new stuff! definatley a must have

- Amazing

Beyautiful

- B power

😘

- Exceptional artistic expression

Great to have an iconic visionary release music this way, direct to the fans, no hype no build up just pure love. I enjoy the lyrics, I identify, I praise. Thanks for sharing your insight Bey!

- 👠🎼💚🎶💋🙌😳🍒🙏⚡️💭💙

💎💛💙💜💚❤️

- Showing why she is queen

'God damn, god damn. Say I look so good tonight' Don't listen unless your prepared to get lost and find yourself in a fantasy.

- Incredible!

I really don't know how Beyonce manages to outdo herself every time, but believe me this album is worth a lot more than its price! Lyrics are full of meaning and I really like the way Beyonce is heading with this. Its different, and I love it! #BEYHIVEONTOP

- AMAZING

A true definition of genius, perspectives that can only be contemplated she some how seems to put into words. First album I've brought of Beyonce's best money I've ever spent. I like how she's so honest so much inspiration can be found within her lyrics. AMAZING

- Love

Best so far

- Wish it was HD

Love it. Everything. Surprising move. Just wish the videos were HD. But that doesn't stop me from giving this 5 stars!

- Yes but no

I bought this wondering what the hype was all about. I love Beyoncé don't get me wrong but the songs all slow with patches of beats and it just gets a bit monotonous after a while. There are a lot of meaningful and sentimental lyrics which make up for the lack of "enthusiasm".

- Love from NZ

She has got to be the best , pure perfection ! Personally i think its her best album out! Not only the songs but the music videos !!! Defiantly a visual album and at that its the best out! Best purchase on itunes ever!

- Beyoncé you're no good sorry

No good sorry

- B rocks

Wow. Just wow

- Perfection

Exactly what she says it is a visual album! Luxury music for the soul.

- Love it

Love it love it love it

- Summing It Up

Summing up Beyonces album. Well she upgraded hip-hop and r&b. She executed a cute, dirtty twerk. Masterd her moves, lyrics and meanings for her songs. Her mind is beautiful and luxurios. Her Life is Happy. Wish I had the power to be like her. Her faddy derion is the coolest! I wanna faddy derion lol. Shes blazen mann! Inspiration for everything. Blue-Ivy is the cutest id so like to see more of her she looks so cool and calm and would just hello to you lol she looks cool Mr and Mrs Carter :) thanks for the album. Iknow you love it. 5 out of 5 :)

- Legendary!

Love how new and different Beyonce's latest album is would definitely recommend soo worth the money paid!!!

- I Am

#slayed

- Bey

Simply AH-MA-ZING!!! She is just to amazing. Just, just kill me now!!

- Thank god she didn't promote it.

This is about as awful as every song which Kesha has released, and at some points, even worse. It rarely picks up the excitement, and when it does, it's only due to an overdose of autotune and poorly executed bass drops. Don't see how others like this so much. *EDIT* After taking a close listen to it, it's not as bad as I thought. XO is beautiful, as is Pretty Hurts. It's not great altogether but those two tracks are incredible.

- Lovex

Thank u Beyx

- AMAZING

In awe right now, this is definitely a masterpiece. GO BEY

- Kia ora, bey

This album, is so amazing... She's a mother, wife, actress, business woman, director and most of all an artist, i love what ever she does... And I'm drunk in love with this album, any album that she does

- Simply Amazing

Best album you can buy, love it and haven't stopped listening to it since it came out.

- Gr8

Wonderful songs but none of the videos work so I am angry about this. If any one has any tips on how to get them to work please let me know

- Talent

The talent is just out of control - undeniably, she has something special going on. Nobody does it like her. The music was just too sexually explicit for me in some of the songs.

- Nice

Nice

- boring

so boring

- Great Work!

I love it. Go Bey

- Ahaha

Awesome

- She's perfect

No words everything about this album is perfect

- A good Album but quite boring!

As much as I feel like this is a quality album, the more I realize how boring it is. This album falls pretty flat when it comes to being interesting, with the exception of Drunk in Love and Partition. And I also like XO. The rest of the songs don't do the album justice, because they are flat out boring and way too dragged out, or both!

- Self titled

Amazing ❤️

- Haunted slay

👑

- So so good!

Truly one of my favorite albums. There is this awesome "Self-Titled" series o YouTube that tells you more about the album. Love Love Love it!!

- junk

I just wasted my money !!!

- Amazing

Remember when the album dropped, didn't wait a sec to buy it and loved every thing about it.

- STOP!!!

Beyoncé as well as many fartists must go away! They have all hijacked the music business for upcoming and older "real" artists! This has dumbed down talent & taste and caused the majority of a generation to not even know what the music is or even where it has come from She needs to GOW!

- GREAT ALBUM

GREAT ALBUM LOVED every TRACK

This song is beautiful. It really does represent what the world has come to. I know people who would rather put on makeup and look pretty than eat breakfast. So I hope Beyoncé can teach people with this song that pretty really does hurt. Just be yourself :)

- Love it

Still listening to this masterpiece in 2018

- Overrated

Never have, and never will understand why this culture idolizes Beyoncè. If you do, chances are you only do because everyone else does...if you really pay attention to her lyrics, behavior, and image, it's nothing worth praising. As a mixed young woman, I'm not empowered by her at all. All she writes about is this: you have to act sexual, egoistic, and rich in order to be successful. Nothing that's gonna make people genuinely better, so why then do we say she's empowering? All I'm saying is that you don't have to be obsessed with Beyoncè just because everyone else is. As a generation, we can pick better role models for young girls. Rise above the normal. Just a thought^

- Best Album

Lemonade and this self titled album are my favorite of her latest work. She's so talented and I love that she gives up the visuals. You go 👑🐝🐝🐝

- Beyoncè

Wow

- Why?

Of the supposedly 80 songs she recorded, these were the best? The others must have been horrific.

- Beyoncé hang it up girl

Listened the whole album absolute garbage didn't like one song the beats are all over the place, voice overs and people talking about being fat it just sux boooo

- Love Queen B!

I love this album! Recently I haven't heard any of her other music, but I was a huge fan of her older songs and I heard about this album on twitter so I was like might as well take a listen! It's amazing! All the songs are so inspirational! It's so obvious that she out her heart and soul into this and Sasha fierce definitely comes out in a few songs!

- one word : FLAWLESS

She just suprise everyone with that album, and that is amazing. The album is so good, like I can’t stop listen it since december 13th,litterally ! Every songs are so good, they all have something special that makes them unique. I love Beyonce, and that album is just as her, flawless

- Not her best

There really aren't many good songs on this album... Sad

- XO

I used to like maybe one or two songs from her but wasn't really a fan until I heard this album. I feel like before she wasn't being her true self and I feel like this album is really HER and all that SHE is. I think she did an amazing job with it and even though I don't LOVE each song, I LOVE the fact that they are all so different and each have their own story attached to them. Regardless of her music, I just find her an inspiring person and this album to me shows that.

- Bey does the unexpectable

Ive been listening to this everyday. It never gets old!

- MOST 💩💩💩 ALBUM!

This album is UNEXPECTED. Means it was so boring. Better luck next time.

- umm… really?

First of all, I really don’t understand the hype about Beyonce. I have a few of her songs but for the most part I just don’t like her music. But I digress… I heard Drunk in Love and thought, well that’s rather catchy. However, has anyone actually read the lyrics to it?!? Bad song-writing, questionable references to domestic violence and rape… I think I’ll pass thank you.

- Queen B !

Amazing !

- Great Album!

I didn’t like the album that much at first but I gave it another try and now I LOVE IT! I think each song needs to be listened from start to end to be appreciated.

- Beyoncé

:O no words...

- WORTH THE MONEY

I honestly never buy albums as I am harsh on them but I have to say this is the best album and I am so glad bought this album. I only dislike about 3 songs No Angel, Ghost, and Heaven but the rest is amazing and with videos included it makes it my favourite album of all time.

- Beyoncé my idol

The albums amazing and worth every cent and more! Did you know she recorded 80 songs and only chose those 14??! She's never going to get old and how could you ever hate her 😍😍😍😍😍😍😍😍😍😍😍

- LOVE IT ❤️

Best Beyoncé Album, I think ever!

- Absolute rubbish

Love Beyoncé, but what is this??? So disappointed!! The songs all sound so disconnected. Not happy with this at all!

- Amazing!!!!

Amazing Album!! Love it!

- Just amazing

Beyoncé is theeeee queen Love her

- I guess skimpy clothing and some shakin does help sales

On Saturday, the lead song was rated 23 on the itunes sales list, after the grammy shake down, the song is now 11th and climbing. What's next to push this puppy to number 1?

- Amazing, Words Cannot Even Describe It :)

Beyoncé is a GENIUS, I mean she wanted to make music videos for all of her songs, and she said her team thought she was crazy, lol, She really nailed it, this time despite her album 4, which the only songs I like, are schooling life, I care, I was here, Best thing I never had etc... GREAT JOB BEYONCE :)

- Yoncé all on repeat....on this iPod lol

I purchased this album on the night it was released, and it has been on repeat the entire time. I feel like I should start listening to other songs because I've literally only been listening to this album. I cant say there is a song on here that I don't like. The only bad thing is my voice is shot trying to sound like Beyonce, lol. Her best work yet!! 👏👏👑

- Unimpressed

God awful.

- Hmmmm....

Not sure what that was all about???? Really disappointed. Was looking forward to listening.

- A Big F*U

A big f*u to everyone but her fans, beyonce shows she will do things her way. This whole album is worth a buy

- Amazing!

Not a huge Beyoncé fan but this album is fire. "Partition" is one of the best songs I've heard in 2013.

- Superpower!!!

Amazing Record!!! Superpower by far the best track on here

- Yoncé killing it

This album finna have me turnt up!!

- Boring!!!!!!!!!

Not worth the money.....

- im crying blood

perfect album bye

- out of this world

This album is EVERYTHING. It has literally changed my life, and I am SO thankful. Cannot praise it enough.

- FLAWLESS.

This album is INSANE. I'll admit, at first, I didn't have the same appreciation for the album as I do now. For me, it was one of those albums that you have to go back and listen to and realize, "Beyonce is a genius." Watching the music videos really helped me have such an appreciation for this album! Not many people can do what Beyonce has done here, major respect!

- girls love beyonce

this album is amazing, so many people hating on bey when there's no need. this album is art.

- Mmmm

A fan of hers but this one is not the best out of all her albums.. It's boring, to slow of songs. There No power in them.

- YES QUEEN BEY

what else can I say but.. BOW DOWN BITXHES 🐝👑🙌

- Surprised

Queen B surprised us with a fantastic new album. No publicity. No warning. No " hackers " that " accidentally leak songs. It's like she did it in a cave or something. I like some songs and others left me hanging... but overall she pulled through with an incredible album.

- Marie

Very weird album. I only bought Haunted, enough said.

- What happened?

K, what happened? She sounds soo different. Like she's trying to sound like Rihanna and nicki minaj. Stay true Beyoncé disappointed.

- Total Let Down!!!

This is awful!! I had high expectations from a woman who has such an amazing voice, but then she releases this garbage?? How disappointing.

- This album is A-MAZ-ING!

It tops her past albums, and feels ten times more personal and crafted. She did a great job, and I don't know why people keep commenting on the marketing. Its brillant really.

- Like a few

I love my gurl B but to be honest, there are only a few songs I like. Totally respect for the no marketing thing but just didn't live up to the hype. In previous albums I loved pretty much every song, wheras I'm only a huge fan of 4 or 5. There are just too many that are slow, needed a better mix of different types.

- O.M.G.

AND THE AWARD FOR ' AS MANY DUETS YOU CAN PUT ON A NEW ALBUM AS FILLER' GOES TO........ BEYONCE!!!!!!! IT IS SAD WHEN YOU HAVE TO INCLUDE YOUR OWN 2 Y.O. ON YOUR RECORD. THIS ALBUM IS JUST SO SAD & SO DESPERATE. WHO WANTS TO PAY $15.99 FOR THIS???? NOT ME. ONLY THE TRUE FANS WILL FIND THIS TRAVESTY FULFILLING.

- She is the queen

I'm a fan of Beyonce, but would write an honest review if her album wasn't good - this album is phenomenal. She just keeps getting better, the songs are original (they don't sound like some recycled pop that all sounds the same), sexy, beautiful, catchy. It's a well balanced album, some slower, beautiful songs and plenty of up-tempo songs to get you moving. This album truly showcases her incredible talent. Highlights for me were: XO, Partition, Flawless, Pretty Hurts, and Heaven.

- Not the greatest

I feel like a lot of people are rating this album with 5 stars because of the fact nobody was expecting it, but that is not why it should be rated, this album is okay but there is nothing spectacular about it, I found all of the songs to be quite dull compared to her others.

- Must buy!

Love the album. Xo!

- POST UP, FLAWLESS.

No one knew this was coming. No warning, no publicity, no campaigns. Bey has revolutionized the way we experience music. This album, with its 14 songs and 17 accompanying videos is epic. It is an album that people will be talking about long after our generation is dead. From the raw, empowering ***Flawless to the sensitive, loving, nurturing Blue, Bey has let her fans in on her life in a way that no one else could. Thank you for this record. #LongLiveQueenBey

- Not for me.

I have never been a fan of Beyonce really, but even though I don't like a particular artist I check out their albums just to give them a chance and see if I'll like any songs. But I have to say, this is very boring music. I hated single ladies, and loathed Diva, but I would prefer hearing either one over any of these. In 'Haunted' all she does is say 9 to 5 over and over again in a monotonous tone. Not very exciting stuff. Yes, she did drop the album out of thin air, and that's pretty cool. But it would have been even better if it didn't sound like a rough draft and not a final product. I don't even like Beyonce and can tell this isn't her best. But of course, since the marketing strategy was good and people think Beyonce can do no wrong, it'll be #1.

- 5 étoiles

Tout nouveau style de musique par Beyoncé. Première écoute, on ne sais pas trop comment le prendre, mais ses chansons sont excellentes, autant en rythme que par ses paroles. Nouvelle approche musicale très réussi.

- BOW DOWN

It's simply great music

- Awesome!!

Queen Bee keeps getting better :).

Some of Beyoncé's songs are great on this album, but others aren't so great. It depends on what type of music you prefer. For me, I liked most of them.

- Over sexualised and cheap

I bought this for my wife for Christmas, and we both were extremely disappointed. Does not have the class of Beyonce’s previous albums. It’s cheap, dirty, and completely undermines whatever good Beyonce has done to try to bring public attention to the exploitation of women’s bodies. She is not a feminist standing up for equality, rights and safety for women, she instead perpetuates the idea that a woman’s body is a commodity. Very disappointing.

- Loving Beyonce's latest

Each video & song is thoroughly enjoyable & once it plays through you wont mind it playing again! Love it :)

- Nothing good

All the songs sound the same. The fact that theirs a video for every song doesn't compensate for the songs.

- Masterpiece.

At first play was unsure. Then I actually L I S T E N E D with headphones and I fell in love with it. Fresh to death and crazy good. A masterpiece.

- ING.O

I regret writing a critical review, This album is not commercial and that is what makes it good, listen to the songs without the videos and you will love the album.

- Love

What a refreshing taste of music it's good to hear that it's not like all the dance pop out. Bring back the old school 808 bass and the simple beats and riffs and then an amazing voice, when ever I feel flat I play drunk in love gets me in a positive mood it's a fun album and go you B you sure had fun recording these tracks and doing the videos your a great inspiration for other artist to aspire to a true icon!

- She ain't no queen

The release was pure genius. In the middle of a world tour and she drops the album with no warning then on the day of release it completely dominates iTunes advertisements. As for the music.... Yeah definitely quantity over quality. She isn't a queen. She's a huge celebrity. The title of queen deserves to true diva's that haven't evolved in mediocre trash such as: Whitney, Mariah and Celine to name a few. And as for the videos. Come on really? You call yourself a feminist and every video and song is what's wrong with feminine issues is society today. This album is a complete joke.

- There's something missing,.

Yes, this album is. Surprising. She may contradict herself in her Pretty Hurts with some of the other songs on her album. The videos are a bit risque, but c'mon, don't most females have that side to them. Don't you remember Dance For You? This isn't the only time she's shown a sexual side? is it? Beyonce's only human, and I guess she's allowing for females to have their own fantasy. Anyway, I think it is great. Different but great! Some of the video don't appeal to me however. But my favourite songs have to be Pretty Hurts, XO, Blue, No Angel, Blow, mostly everything. Yes maybe Love on Top and I Was Here were great but I will love and support Queen B. She is beauty.

- Incredible!

Love it!! She's changing it up again & it's incredible! No weak tracks & videos are amazing!

- Amazing!

On the first listen I noticed that only 2 or 3 songs jumped out at me but after listening to every song more than once I realised that not only are they great songs but the accompanying film clips only made the songs better. I have been obsessed with this album since I got it and I find that with every listen I have a new favourite song off it. It's not like her other albums where the singles are clear this is a body of work that needs to be enjoyed as a whole. I would recommend it to anyone that is willing to take the time to listen and be open minded. Beyonce is a rare gem and this would have to be one of my favourites of hers.

- winning

you definitely will go down in history as one of the greats of our time you earned your place and definitely stand side by side with the likes of whitney and mj xx

- Vulgar

Looks like money does NOT Buy class!

- I've just bought this album

I Luv B, but haven't listened to this album as yet. I. Have to admit some of her songs have the melody/beat/rhythm of older songs, or going on the same as albums go... since she has gone solo... But she has an ability to renew these beats & her voice, I have loved her voice since she was in Destinys. She is fabulous as a mother and an entertainer,, but I would like her to think a lil 'outside the box' with the next album.

- Bow down B******s

Amazing! Been on repeat since downloading it. All hail Queen B!

- BEYONCÉ did it again!

What a great surprise! She has different songs to every other singer, which is why I love her as well as her music. Her voice is so beautiful and she can make her voice different for example her song 'no angel' is different. In some songs she is trying to be a tough girl and rap! But it's cute because she'll always be a good girl! 👍 Her songs are always so catchy and has done awesome collaborations with great people, like her husband and daughter! I would buy this album 10 times if I could! 😍 Overall great album like always! Love you Bey Queen ❤️👑

- MASTERPIECE

Queen Bey for life or may I see King Bey for life. BeYONCE is and will always be a true artist and the most powerful woman & artist I adore! She is my model - a visionary and this new work of art proves that she can be a gangsta and still be respected! Chapeau & i love you Beyonce!!!! #1 Fan forever!!

- Love It!!!

This is the best album I have ever heard all year. It's Creative, Surprising and Unique. B has really stepped away from the label controlled sounds that is mediocre. Love It!!!

- QUEEN

perfect. Love every song & video!!!

- Let down by iTunes

Love the whole visual album but some parts are visually incoherent. The bonus video, grown woman is particularly painful to watch. A HD release would do Beyonce justice.

- garbage

none of the songs are up beat at all and are super boring to listen to. Not to mention they are all very similar and lack a chorus. This is soooo terrible

- YAAASSSSS

*BOWS DOWN TO QUEEN BEY*

- Upsetting

I was expect the album to be more party songs these are quit boring and depressing sorry guys

- Queen Bey 👑🐝

Best album of all time. Anyone that gives it less than 5 stars is an idiot and doesn't know what music is!

- Amazing

Of course yonce has made another awesome album. Every single song I enjoy listening to. Good job Beyonce!

- Amazing

OMG this album is so amazing! Everyone should buy it!!!

- Bow down bi***es

Since discovering the internet, I have not paid for music. This was the first. It was worth every single cent! This visual album reminds the world exactly why Beyonce is the Queen of pop, not only that but a true artist! If can watch all the previews and still not certain you want to spend your hard earned cash on this album then take a strangers word for it! I promise if you enjoy music, you will love this. Empress Beyonce, bow down bushes

- Disappointed

Bought it on the Hype listened to the Audio tracks and then watched the videos. Over sexualised and boring. Not one track ever worth listening to again.

- CMA

Depressing! Overly sexualized! You don't have to bare to sell. My goodness girl!

- Great album but...

This is a fantastic album, but I don't want all the music videos. I wish they had a separate version without the videos. Then I wouldn't think twice about buying it. But now I'm not sure...

- Flawless

The best Beyoncé album so far.

- absolute perfection. 👌

the beats rumble my heart & beyoncè's voice is completely amazing, your whole album is ✨✨✨, can't explain. amazing babe. 😘

- Awesome

The best album she's recorded . It has some sexy songs and videos but also some sweet songs too ! Go queen b 👑👸🇺🇸😘❤️

- One Word...

AMAZING!!!

- Slayoncé

Perfect. You're so amazing I love you so so so much. This album is just 😍🎶

- Beyonce Is Strictly Genius

This is my favourite album by her so far. The music videos and songs are far from normal. She is a genius artist and I consider all of her music videos pieces of art. The songs are genius and flawless.

- Perfection!

With songs that will make you cry, songs that will Warm your heart and make you smile, songs that will Make you want to get up, let loose and dance your heart away, this self titled album (and rightfully so) has something fit for every one of your moods. And with videos to accompany the meaningful and beautiful lyrics, it is evident that Beyonce really can do no wrong.

- Bees best album yet

At first I wasn't a massive fan, as it was not what I was expecting. But after a few listens I haven't been able to stop playing it. Buy the whole album, it's worth every cent!

- ICONIC

Listen to this open-mindedly and not from the perspective that this is so different from her other stuff. Artist’s are meant to grow and go through different periods in their lives just as other human beings. This album is so raw and so truthful, absolutely iconic and game changing!

- QUEEN

Love this album...Beyoncé's best work yet, she's raised the bar for all the girls in the game!!! They all need to sit down and take notes...only Bey can release an album by surprise and it STILL be number 1 on iTunes after 3 weeks...Love her! 💜💜💜

- Best Album Ever

The way she did this album and filmed it in different places without people even knowing they were being filmed was amazing. I think it’s really great that she was telling people about how girls are pressured into having to feel beautiful but that we should be comfortable in our own skin, and to not let people judge us. The visual album was a really unique way of showing monumental parts of her life and sharing it with the world. Thanks Beyonce!!!!

- Amazing!!

Beyonce you are simply the best. Love love this album.

- HAIL QUEEN BEY!!!

The Queen Bey has been in hibernation and has stung back baby! This album is an expression of sexuality, feminism and love that highlights the sophistication that is Beyonce. From beginning to end she takes you on a journey of her life, with the videos being snapshots of her worldwide experiences throughout this year. So just like the Queen said, "we ***flawless!" Hail Queen Bey...all rise!

- Yoncé's name on my lips like liquor 😊

This is the best album of the year and Bey's best to date! ❤️ You KING Yoncé

- 👍

Amazing!

- Terrible

I definitely regret purchasing this album. Most of the songs are mismatched choruses without any real melodies. Very disappointing...

- Love love love

The videos are amazing. Love all the songs, my favourites are 'Blow' and 'Drunk in love' also loved 'XO'.

- Perfection

I've always been a huge fan of Beyonce, but loved her her old music a little more then her more recent stuff so I'm super excited with this album because its fresh, new and pushes the boundaries. I like that. I love pretty much every song on this album!

- B

Hate beyonce but this album is my fav out of all of them but i dont like the illuminati stuff and to be honest if Aaliyah was still alive beyonce wouldn't be as big as she is know bc i feel like beyonce copied Aaliyah

- Album is

Amazing!!!

- Great Song

Great songs from Beyoncé

- 👌

Outstanding. Never heard anything like this from Beyoncé and she's definitely raised the bar for other artist with the same genre.

- Mmmmmmm

Beyoncé is a brilliant singer! But this album is not very good. I think she has tried to change to much. Her old songs (single ladies, love on top) where really good but this album has let her down a bit. ALTHOUGH I do like the song XO. Beyoncé next time be yourself this is not like u!!!

- She did that!!

YAAAAASSSSS

- YASSSS

SLAY YAS BEY

- AMAZING ALBUM

Absolutely loving this album, every song is beautiful and different. I can't stop listening to it. Beyonce is such an incredible, inspirational women, this is talent at its best, she's my role model forever #QueenBey

- Amazing

Could not be happier with this album

- love the New Queen b

Hearing this album made me fall in love with bey even more but I do agree with most people it wasn't exactly what I expected to be the kind of music beyonce makes her past albums have been upbeat and I expected this one to be exactly like her other albums but that's the thing I love about this album it wasn't what you expected that's why I love bey and her new album x

- Unbelievable!

Beyoncé has stepped her game up. The fastest selling album world wide, it is amazing! She is ingenious! I love the way she brought jay and blue into her songs! She has changed from running the world..... She now is the world! Carry on Beyoncé, you are amazing to be able to give birth, get your body back to a fit twig and song amazing, meaningful songs! Long live Queen Bey!👑

I just bought this album, having listened to the brief previews on iTunes. I decided to succumb, and I bought it, and i absolutely do not regret it! Each song is like magic to your ears, it's truly a fantastic album.

Wow! The album is what I've been looking for. Beyoncé is back and bigger than ever!! I love the album, it's so experimental!! I LITERALLY LOVE ALL THE SONGS and I don't say that much. The highlights were 'Haunted','Blow' & 'XO' was just an amazing song. I also love the HAUNTED VIDEO, GROWN WOMAN VIDEO, XO VIDEO and the PRETTY HURTS video was very inspirational. BEST ALBUM EVER! ❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️

- Blows my mind

This album is fantastic; out of this world; brilliant! I love the fresh beats and lyrics - the element of Beyoncé's personal life in there just makes it even better. My review isn't just for the release without any warning, but for the pure brilliance that is these songs.

- ABSOLUTLEY love this album

I don't care what anyone says beyonce is amazing and if you have been to watch her new mrs carter show with all the new songs they are just as good as the old ones, just because your all used of upbeat pop songs from her she is letting her feeling our through her songs and if you was a fan you would love it too sorry had to say it love ya b

- I hate jay z

Jay z has distorted Beyoncé he is a horrible inspiration

- Queen B is officially back 🙌❤️

Music is fantastic my 3 favourites songs on this album has got to be Drunk in love, Partition, Blue ivy, loving this album this has to be your best album out of all the others I'm very impressed Queen 💗🙌 Xx

- Amazing

Only Beyoncé could drop a self-entitled album with no warning. I really like how it shows the different sides to her including love, death, being powerful, motherhood and others. I could listen to this all day and it deserves 5 stars all round. Good work Beyoncé.

- Honey B

Great album, way better than "4" my favourite song is 'Haunted' love how it's like a 2in1 song

- Perfection of course.

Daring. Honest. Revealing. Sexy. Best album yet.

- Shaney waney

She never fails to impress. Amazing album with the best tracks 😍🐝

- Perfect

Bey has made another perfect album and slayed it. Queen

- Amazing!

This album is incredible. Firstly, the fact that we get a video for all the songs is just amazing. This album has such a diversity to it, so many different genre of songs. Brilliant, can't fault it!!

- Beyoncé brilliance

This album is a perfect way for you to see how amazing beyonce work is, from the graphics in the video to the words of the songs. Beyoncé is an exceptional artist and this album is an essential buy.

- ❤️❤️❤️ Queen B

Amazing song so catchy fav song out of the album just...no words for this She definitely met her expectations so creative and Jay Z omg you too sound Perf together 💞💞

- Love it !!

Best album yet !!!!!

- I'm addicted !!!!

I bought this on Tuesday and I've been listening to it non stop!! I do not regret buying this album, there was a reason why it was a secret ... Because it's SOOOO AMAZING!¡!¡!¡!

- Stunning

Beyonce's best album yet!! Absolutely stunning, as are the videos. My favourite being Blow and Partition. I saw Beyonce in Dublin on the 9th March, and she did not disappoint with her new songs :)

- Let me hear you say, Heeeyyy Miss Carter

Different sound to Queen B but nevertheless still absolutely fantastic! The visual aspect to this album is excellent and Beyonce proves her songs with expression- something different to what she normally does! Overall, brilliant artist and excellent to see her music back in the charts! Once again, Miss Carter is here to stay!

- Best yet?

Mature, sexy, slick, brilliant.

- Superb

To be equally fare i personally think Mrs Carter has done well on this album. I understand those who will agree with point of view, we all got different tastes as far as melodies to the ears are concerned.

- Grower!

At first I didn't really like it but that was judging by the previews. I decided to listen to it in full and I loved it! It gets better with every listen it's great!

- Trash

Utter trash, how it sold so many copies is beyond me.

- 🔥

🏄🍉🍒 her best album yet! 🙌

- Bow down!

Bow down b*****s! She is the QUEEN! :-)

- I love every song

I love it. There is no other artist like BEYONCÉ I love her.

- This album is FLAWLESS!

Beyonce is the absolute queen and the fact that she was able to drop her album like she did shows how she knows shes got the throne and ahe aint leaving. The songs are produced to an exceptional standard, along with the videos which give the album the amazing visual dimension, something you dont experience with most albums. Beyonce has showed a new sexy side to her with these amazing bass riffs and fantastic vocals (of course!). Well done and All hail Queen B!

- Best album yet

Honestly one of the best albums I've ever listened too. It's up there with queen. Great songs and fantastic lyrics. Loved it :)

- Microd

Well.... I like 😊

- Bey!

I totally love this album

- EXCELLENCE

Beyonce has always been the artist of my life, her eponymous album is something i"m yet to compleltly digest despite it being released several years ago, there is always something new to notice with every listen, whether its the heavenly hormonies in the background, the unusual but perfect tempo of the beats or a particular visual. the replay value of this album is unmatched. beyonce gave me 3yrs to digest her self titled album before slaping the wolrd with the unreal art that is contined in LEMONADE, It unfortunately wasnt enough time for poor me, it has now been three years since the release of her last studio album and i'm digesting it along with her SELFTITLED album, wish me luck!

- Mr

Wonderful

- Xtremelycool

I've always been a Queen bey fan no mather how hard i try not to...So far ma favs 4 her self titled album are :pretty hurts,mine,drunk in love

- BEYONCE

She stopped the world

- Beyoncé

I loved dis

- BEYONCE!

This is truly an awesome album, it gets better and more interesting with each listen. Beyonce has always made timeless music, and on this album she takes it a notch higher. Here is an artist that has been on top of her game since her solo debut, an artist other singers look up to and this is her Magnum Opus!

- Dr

Wow!!! Pretty cool

- 7 years strong

This album is still in my playlist 7 years later . A strong 10/10 album

- Beyond Saying

Without promotion dropping still making hits all hail the Queen Bey!

- Mr

This album is like sorcery, some of the songs I didn't like the first day I heard it, am like addicted to them now. The album is beyond flawless. Gets better with each listen.

- Awesome

This is just one word EPIC!!

- lovely from beyonce check out fred reflection album
