storytelling in tracklisting (MY interpretation)

this album is primarily associated with sexual liberation (true), but it’s also darker. heavier tones are woven into each track, but are often sandwiched between sultry lyrics that divert from the internal battle ongoing. thread:

@beyhiveee98 and even without the interviews she was posting so much video content on youtube so it somewhat filled that void omg we’ll truly never have that again rip

[✰ @beytrash]

curious: what’s your favorite Beyoncé era overall (incl. but not limited to: music, publicity, fashion, tour etc)?

[✰ @beytrash]

@b1ue_t1nt 4 era was incredible unfortunately it was so short lived 😭

[✰ @beytrash]

@beyhiveee98 god she was so active with posting content back then I’ll never stop yearning for that era

Beyoncé backstage before opening her show in são paulo, brazil for MCSWT.

this was the same night an overly excited fan nearly pulled her offstage during ‘irreplaceable’ and despite it, she ensured security let them stay for the remainder of the show (sept 15 2013)

Always so fascinated with blue eyeshadow for its rich history, from symbolizing divinity in ancient Egypt to a sign of rebellion against the rigid beauty standards. Hollywood even tried “vilifying” the color by making female villains use blue eyeshadow (eg. Zinnia from Matilda).

@dreamgirlchels absolutely!!!

@MsCuntyHunty personally still obsessed with that pepsi commercial lol but yes 100% I think I’m leaning towards that being my fav era also considering self titled is my favorite of hers!! and I loved the entire OTR tour aesthetic

[✰ @beytrash]

@_honeysuperstar it definitely is a masterpiece and I’ll forever be disappointed at the negative response it received given how pure her intentions were

@icursethest4rs lemonade made me make this account lmao real

@bdyoncee love your why for renaissance, anything that grants escapism is a win in my book

[✰ @beytrash]

@devotedtosiba self titled is everything to me

[✰ @beytrash]

@renbday sasha fierce era is ironically so underrated

[✰ @beytrash]

as I pull from her archives (internet) im interested in knowing what the masses think, however I don’t even think I know my own answer tbh so many good ones

the faux nipple leotards for MCSWT that ignited parental outrage but strategically planted the seeds for her self titled era transition #mother
