#beyonce #renaissance #beyoncealbum - Zábava
I was in shock when I first listened to the album. This album is NOT my genre nor my style or taste in music but somehow after the 2nd listen, 3rd listen and the rest, I found myself just on chokehold with this album. I'm completely in love with this album. It's the intricate and complex production, the fun, lovely and also relatable lyricism, the love letter to self, LGBTQIA community and your partner and of course the VOCALSSS. Even in up beat, rap and genreless songs, SHE SINGS.
🔥🔥🔥
LOVE THIS COMMENT!
@@Shawnthedon @shawnthedon i feel like you should react to some of her Live performances also! She is incredible to hear live. I’ve seen her 4 times Live and she blows me away every time!!! The Renaissance tour was incredible. I’m sure myself and several others can suggest videos of performances to watch.
Same lol
My kink is watching people have their mind blown by Virgo’s Groove
Glad I can help you with your kink. Not a sentence I thought I would write today 😅
SAME
VIRGOS GROOVE NEEDS TO WIN AN AWARD!
same 😭 wish i could listen to it the first time again
Honestly, same
this album is like a wine, it comes better every time you hear it
I couldn't agree more! Was listening to it on a long drive home yesterday and sheesh it's still 🔥
Album of the decade tbh. It's just an absolute masterpiece in all aspects.
She was not messing around with this album! 🔥🔥
Rolling Stone named Lemonade album of the century sooo... you're not wrong. Lol
Facts! There’s no way around it ❤
"SHE CAN'T KEEP GETTING AWAY WITH THAT" Me every time I listen to this album haha loved this reaction. She should've won AOTY!
And who gonna stop her
Me on stage like Kanye in the year of our Lord 2023 like: but Beyonce tho?????
The transitions are gold on this joint, it’s like a whole club set.
I hope the rest of the music industry was listening, because we need more of those transitions! 🔥
She srsly just kicked off a revolution for producers and vocalists .. if AB mad then it’s coming in real HOT!! 🔥🔥🔥
The uncle Johnny made my dress line was in reference/tribute to her late uncle Johnny, who introduced to the culture/music that inspired her to make this album. It’s also a reference to how her uncle made her a homecoming dress
The culture I’m talking about is ballroom culture which is better seen in pure/honey (vogue femme and old way) and the outro for heated which is in reference to MCs in ballrooms
Beyonces been famous for a little over 25 years now ❤❤! With all 7 #1 albums in her solo career alone !😮
That's wild! 7 #1 albums no including Destiny's Child?!?! Incredible
Yes 7# 1 solo albums
Energy is the shortest song but goes SO hard every time.
Apologies for taking so long, but my reaction to RENAISSANCE is finally here!
Also, I didn't know how to make an album reaction, so I just reacted to every song lol. Hope you enjoy!
VIRGOS GROOVE NEEDS TO WIN AN AWARD!
Move, even though primarily hard hitting Jamaican Dancehall vibe meets Pop queen vibe
At some point reminds me of
I’m a Slave 4 U by Britney Spears.
Turns out, they were both written by some of the same writers so my instinct was correct
Those sexy pop moments at the end. 🤤🤤🤤🤤🤤
react to cuff it wetter remix!!!!
Shawn, your reaction is great, and you're great too!!!!
The sample in Summer Renaissance is from best song ever IMHO, I Feel Love by Donna Summer (yes, like the track title) ❤️🐐🐝
Renaissance truly is a masterpiece, really hope she wins the Grammy for Album Of The Year this weekend! After 3 snubs it would be amazing if she finally wins it.
The Grammys failed to acknowledge her albums and all the hard work people did in the background YEARS ago, why would we care about them now? Renaissance IS the album of the year, the response both from critics and the general public has been phenomenal.
@@kalmanta1824 true! But it would just be so satisfying, she just DESERVES it more than anyone this year (same for Lemonade)
Grammy's have left me with trust issues after Kendrick didn't win for Good Kid Maad City lol. I hope she wins it this year! She deserves it!
Why do yall care about grammys? If you like it why does it matter what the Grammys think…she has so many already
@@ajollypanda4175 She deserves it. 🤷🏽♀️
NOBODY and I do mean NOBODY even comes close to Beyoncé’s level. Bey is on another freaking hemisphere. She’s definitely #1, she’s the ONLY ONE. She’s the baddest and hardest working woman on the planet. Even in her 40s Beyoncé puts women in their 20s to tucking shame. Her work ethics, physical stamina and effortless and flawless vocals is unmatched. Bey is ICONIC, LEGENDARY and the true entertainment visionary GENIUS and GOAT!!!
No one can come close to these women like Lisa Fischer, Angela Winbush, and Phyliss Hyman. She is nothing but a possessive, wicked demon.
Mind you, this is her only album so far with no “heartbreak” song !
ALBUM OF THE YEEEEEEAR !!!!!
I didn't even think about that. Great point!
It’s all about good vibes
I love the fact that this album is devoid of the love, relationship trope. I love the album from beginning to end. Normally with a album of this length, you get tired and a bit bored, not with this album, I get excited and look forward to the latter part and then I’m pissed that it’s ended. 😂
Also heated is my favorite song of this album. It gave us Ballroom!!!!
With reggae dance hall influences for us caribbean people.
@@bperez8656 👏🏾👏🏾👏🏾
Summer Renaissance samples “I feel love”, by Donna Summer’s- That’s why Beyonce titled it “Summer” Renaissance. :)
lol I'm a dummy. Thank you for helping make that connection.
@@rsswdawe, you’re so welcome 😇
Virgos groove is the best song ever made, idc fight me
VIRGOS GROOVE NEEDS TO WIN AN AWARD!
I love watching people react to this album. It's like I'm hearing and experiencing it all over again for the first time. Renaissance is U N I Q U E!!!
Yes! All up in your mind is so twisted and beautiful! It’s so underrated..
RIGHTT
I paid them in dust is a gay term, she paid them in dust is basically saying that she doesn’t give them the time of day. 🙏🏾 Uncle Johnny was her real uncle, who the album is dedicated to, he was a gay man who was big in the ballrooms (more black gay culture) he and Bey’s mom HANDMADE all of her Destiny’s Child dresses, hence the line “uncle Johnny made my dress, that cheap spandex she looks a mess.” In America has a problem, she compares herself to crack, she’s basically saying that she’s so bad, that SHE’S America’s problem. Also this is Act 1 of 3, she has 2 more albums for us. 😅
The Queen Bey is the GOAT. The ALbum is the CHRONIC and Break My Soul is everything we needed post 2020 Pandemic.
Ahhh!! I’ve been waiting for this!! Ok so let’s get into the “uncle Johnny made my dress, that cheap spandex she looks a mess” line. It is referring to her late gay uncle Johnny (whom this album is dedicated to) making her dresses (which had spandex in them) back when she was in her destiny’s child days. “That cheap spandex, she looks a mess” line is referring to the comments people made about said dresses. I suppose she is referring to the haters with those lines.
Oh wow, great response! Appreciate this!
Interesting interpretation of the cheap spandex line. I always thought she was referring to/dissing other people/someone else with that line. Like she was bragging about the quality of her dresses, because her uncle Johnny made them, almost like he was/should have been a famous fashion designer and everyone else should have been envious of her because she had exclusive access to his talents. Tina, her mother, said that Johnny was incredibly gifted at fashion and could make exact replicas of anything just from looking at it once.
@Keenan Right! That's how it interpreted it, too.
@@keenan7754
If you listen to some of interviews and award speeches she says
Destiny’s child was rejected from every major fashion house for being curvy black girls and that’s why Uncle Johnny continued to sow everything with mom.
So she means to point out that people made fun of her for cheap spandex and looking a mess
@@bperez8656 nah I respectfully disagree😂 but I guess we'll only find out the truth when Giselle releases the visuals.
Coz that doesn't make any sense to me. Destiny's Child were rejected from being dressed by those fashion houses because of their race and body types, not because of the clothes they wore. I see it as a diss to other people coz Tina said he was talented AF. I don't think a talented man would have them in cheap spandex. Destiny's Child had some outfits that were a miss in retrospect and maybe even in the then "present" time period in which they were worn, but overall I think they had a decent to good sense of style aesthetic. I don't think the cheap spandex and how she says it is reflective of Uncle Johnny. Especially given that the rest of the song, she shouts out major designer brands and says she has to "cool down" because of them. She's also continuously saying "Uncle Johnny made my dress, fan me off" throughout the whole song in the background vocals. I think she was trying to complement him and say that he was JUST AS GOOD as the rest of the other major labels she shouts out on the song.
One of my favorite Renaissance reviews ever. This just made my day!!! Wish I was there with you to dance and groove together
I honestly can't tell you how much this comment means to me! 😭The dance floor is always open with me!
"it's so good it's so good it's so good" at 1:21:20 is from Donna Summer's "I Feel Love"
OMG that's it! Thank you!
tbh these are the reactions I like to watch the MOST on CZcams. Closing your eyes and letting the music take you, like you did on Virgo's Groove. This album is supposed to be felt in your BODY, not in the mind. Amazing!
Looking at this as she just broke a record for most Grammy awarded artist of all time 🐝🐝🐝🐝🐝
Fun fact: Thique is actually 8 years old, she just never released it.
I LOOOOOVED THIS REACTION!!!!
Saving it to my BeyReactionsPlaylist.
Let me be the first to tell you your emotions WILL NOT come down on your second, third, fourth, or fifth listen. Put on some good headphones and each time you listen you will notice something new in the songs.
Bey was singin in the front, the back, way in the back, and on all sides of every song. Months later and im still noticing little things in the background of songs while listening to your reaction.
I have been listening to this album since it came out and it STILL has me in a choke hold and I DON'T want anyone to save me.
Album of the Year in my book!!!
If there is really an Act ii and Act iii that are actual albums....Lord have mercy on our souls.
This might be a trilogy?!?! OMG
It says a lot about an album when it keeps getting better with each listen 🔥
Also, thank you so much! Means a lot that you enjoyed my reaction!
Gives myself early 80s and 70s studio 54 and soul train vibes absolutely loved this album
Beyonce is a Queen and I love these old school vibes but your reactions make me enjoy it that much more. Shawn, your energy, enthusiasm and sheer pleasure while listening to this is infectious!!!!!!😊
I really enjoyed your reaction to this album. 😭 It was a masterpiece indeed, and she deserves all the accolades it get. She bends from one genre to another, and she did risked to make a whole dance album. Gonna definitely share this. 🐝🐝🫶
To “pay someone in dust”. Means to pay the no mind. 🏃🏾♀️💨
They way you got down to "Cozy" shoulders and all made me smile so hard 😆This was me the first 50 times I listened to that album it's Genius!
I'm screaming at Virgo's Groove reaction 😂 loving the moves. Also one of the BEST REACTIONS out there, such energy 🙌🏻
SUCH SLAY!! 🔥🔥🔥🔥
I workout and Vogue to it literally everyday she encapsulated genius on every level !!!
Loved this fan review of Beyonce's masterpiece album! Thank you for the laughter, grooves, and pure joy of music radiating through your reactions!
Out of the world and absolutely adore the early 80s and 70s dance club vibes gives me one million diamonds and pearls and beautiful stars in our solar system
His facial expressions when listening to “ I’m that girl” is how your face and body has react when listening to this album. Perfect 👍🏾
I love ur reaction to cuff it..u know what sends this song over the top for me is that iconic guitar riff by Nile Rodgers..that chic sound is all over this and I just love it..add Sheila E on the percussion and Raphael Saadiq and it’s absolute perfection! A genuine ode to funk and disco
BROOOOO YOU ARE MY FAVORITE RENAISSANCE ALBUM REACTION EVERRRR! I love how much you love this album 🙌🏽
The entire video was EPIC bro! Killed it! The “devils on my shoulder part” had me HOLLERING when you looked to you right shoulder.
Lmao glad you enjoyed it!
DILFS love beyoncé ❤️
Wait a minute, does that mean that I have finally achieved DILF status?! 2023 starting off great!😭🏆
Bey showing why she is the Queen!! Album is 🔥🔥🔥
I also have to add that “Move” will grow on you & damn near become you fav track off the album. This album Along with 4 are the two that separate her from the herd. She is the Bar… we won’t see another like B for a long time.
Your reaction to Virgo's Groove alone was worth the wait. 😆 I'm glad you loved the album like I thought you would. And let me find out Zaddy is putting in that work. 😈 Can't wait to see your reaction if/when we get visuals and/or a live performance. Love it Shawn! ♥
If we got a music video for any of these songs, I'm going to be acting a fool on my reaction 😅
I can only imagine. Are you going to try to go to the tour? That would be another fun video to see- your reaction to the show.
This album pure masterpiece glad u reacted to it definitely deserve album of the year 🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥
you gave the best reaction out of all reactors ive watched!!! and thats the only right way to appreciate this album frrr
Thanks for the vid! Love the full album reactions
Thank you for watching! Lol
I was debating for a while how I wanted to edit this, but in the end, I decided that because Beyonce put so much into her album, I think that we should enjoy the whole album together.
I loveeee watching your reaction video. So much energy! Yess
On the “Uncle Johny made my dress” line she is referencing to her own uncle who made her prom dress and made costumes for Destiny’s Child; He was gay and he died of AIDS related illness and she dedicated this album to him.
And she was chanting/commentating on this outro a common practice on the ballroom scene.
I still wonder what the following line about "cheap spandex she looks a mess". I feel like she is repeating a line that her Uncle said about something she was going to wear and the he need to make her something better. That's my guess. Or he's reading what others were wearing in comparison to Beyonce.
@@rsswdmy theory is that the media has always ridiculed her, so they probably were saying her uncles creations made of “cheap spandex” were bad.
I had so much fun with your reaction! best react. thanks
Had so much seeing you fan girl like the rest of us. This is easily my favorite Beyoncé album and I’ve been an avid fan her whole career
Your reaction was so wholesome. Loved every moment ❤
Thank you! Glad you enjoyed it! 😭🙏
I had so much fun watching this! Also you’re incredibly handsome. We love a man who appreciates Beyoncé 🙌🏽
“Here’s the songs that got added to the playlist *whole album*” 😂😂😂😂😂 EXACTLY THAT
Sooooo good! Love u love u love Beyoncé love renaissance!
Okay, I'm now done watching your reaction. Glad that I discovered your channel. Loved your reaction, fun and also honest sharing what you felt emotionally with the songs. Loved that. Coz same. ♥
Thanks for this video
I loved your reactions on Pure/Honey hahaha
Your reaction is so dope..seeing a dude unabashedly appreciate music and truly feel it is 👍🏼
VIRGOS GROOVE NEEDS TO WIN AN AWARD!
Finally seeing a reactor appreciate All Up In My Mind. That song is 🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥
This is one of the reactions I was looking for! Really, Renaissance it's a great album, Beyoncé has a long musical career. And I love your reaction, I found it very authentic. You made my day and my work colleagues' day. I follow you recently on social media and I really love all your reactions. Keep it up! You are amazing. 🎉🎉🎉🎉
Ojala CZcams traduzca esto. Solo quería decir que estoy tan feliz, con tanta energía. El álbum ya me gustaba pero ver tu reacción, sentir emociones como la tuya... Es una sensación hermosa. Eres tan divertido pero al mismo tiempo tomas en serio las letras. Gracias a tus comentarios he podido entenderlas mejor, ahora sé porque con razón me gustaban tanto y me sentía identificado con éstas en algunas partes. Sin duda hace tiempo una vídeo reacción no me ponía de tan buen humor. Simplemente eres encantador. Sí yo fuera Beyonce y viera tu vídeo, estaría llorando de felicidad.
I loved your reaction!❤
The sample you mention at SUMMER RENAISSANCE is from Donna's Summer song "I FEEL LOVE" and that's why the song is called "SUMMER" cause of Donna :D
Just stumbled across your channel because who doesn’t love Beyoncé?! I just have to say you are awesome! Keep being a light in the world! I enjoy watching you have so much fun! The world could use more of you!
The Grammys just won’t give her album of the year… so weird…. Every mediocre person beats her out. but we all know she is 7 for 7 album of the year min our hearts.
I am not a normal Beyoncé listener but Renaissance took me on a journey and I’m disappointed she didn’t get album of the year for it.
Just off the strength of the transitions alone she should have won because who else is doing that shit???
This is Beyoncé's second album that really deserves to win a grammy
THE QUEEN!!! 🐝🐝🐝🐝
Loved ur reaction!!
Shawn is officially my new internet crush 😂 but for real, its almost a year after this album dropped and I’m still jamming to it. I’m going to the Renaissance Tour on the official one year anniversary of the album’s release and I can’t wait.
I love your reaction! Its a vibe
Thank you for appreciating All Up In Your Mind cause folks are tripping saying it's not a bop. Also Move is nice as well.
You make me feel happy. Thank you!
This might be my favorite comment I have ever gotten 😭🙏
GOD I WAS WATING FOR THIS THANKS
Enjoyed your reaction 🎉
Thank you!! I'm glad you enjoyed it!
This was amazing and on point frfr
I love your reactions, are so genuine.
You really enjoy every beat of each song. Renaissance is a journey.
Please do a reaction of DISCO by Kylie Minogue, this album came out in 2020.
@shawnthedon i feel like you should react to some of her Live performances also! She is incredible to hear live. I’ve seen her 4 times Live and she blows me away every time!!! The Renaissance tour was incredible. I’m sure myself and several others can suggest videos of performances to watch.
Renaissance tá incrível. Beyoncé como sempre provando pra todos nós que ela é a rainha do pop 🐝🐝🐝🇧🇷🇧🇷🇧🇷🇧🇷❤
Lmao😂 you’re so pumped for Thique, you even gave us a lil sample of your dance moves 🤭😁
More Bey please 🙏🏾
Definitely going to have to!
Amazing reaction ❤️
Appreciate it thank you! 😭🙏
Great reaction 😭❤️
Loved your review bruh. You are funny 🤣
Priceless reactions hahaha
I feel like everytime I hear that first part of summer renaissance where she Donnas “it’s so good” sample… I have the exact same reaction. Every… single… time..😍😍😍😍
I had the best time with you! You are so fun. I loved watching this with you. Hope you had a chance to watch some of the concert footage.
Thank you!! I think I've watched every mute challenge video from her concert that I could find lol. I should have gone lol
@@Shawnthedon I can totally see you having a ball in my mind's eye! Keep groovin Brother!
I think when she said "i paid them all in dust/ I'm stingy with my love" she's referring to her haters as in she's not paying them much attention or energy.
I think I love you lol! You appreciate great music so well!!! New subscriber
I think I love you too! Addicted to listening to good music
Surprisingly she only says love 25 times, definitely feels like more lol
Thank you for this! Definitely felt like more. Maybe because my knees get weak every time she says it lol
This is my favorite album reaction for renaissance!!!!
It’s a mf groove period 🔥🔥❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️ I live for alien super !!!!!
LOVE Alien Superstar!
Yo I love this dude lol I loved this homie keep doing what you doing 💯
AYO, not much better than getting a stamp of approval from one of the 🐐's! Appreciate the love! Love your channel btw!
@Shawn Hansen Reacts thank you brother you'll be here soon bro just stay at it man 🔥
Preciate the love!!
This man is going feral for Beyoncé and I am going feral for him 🥵
the best reaction of this album
Amazing album 🔥🔥
Visuals are supposedly coming but I have a feeling we're going to get a visual film like she did with "Lemonade"
God I hope so lol
That was fun!
Glad you enjoyed it!! Beyonce with a masterpiece of an album!
Your reaction on "Move" killed me😂😂😂
The way you gagged at cuff it 😂 that was me when i first listened to it
People anticipated that it would be a bad album because she's been doing it for as long as she has, and she should be overrated I do believe the purpose of those claims is that she shouldn't be celebrated or relevant anymore. I'm happy more people are coming around, so many people bashed this album when it came out and rode the hate train. Now that all the noise had died down certain people can hear and maybe enjoy the album and I think that's what she intended, evidently not having any visuals for the album. I think this is her best work my two favorite songs are plastic off the sofa and Virgo's groove, at their core they are, the signature Beyonce Love ballad-like old songs from Destiny's Child and the Dangerously in Love song and album, Rocket, and several more. I think it's accurate that it is well critically acclaimed by the Metacritic score, however, I'll give people grace in that music is subjective and this album may not be for everyone but it's dishonest to make claims that nothing sounds like old Beyonce in this album.
I must’ve been insulated from the hate train cause all I say was praise for the masterpiece
@@bperez8656 I’m on social media too much, in reality I’ve heard praises, even from people I didn’t expect to. But social media is bitter
Loved your reaction man. Check out Sade if your ever in the mood for some R&B/Jazz.
