[VIDEO/REVIEW]: Beyonce releases "Formation".





'twas the night before Super Bowl, and all through the world "Formation" was dropped by Beyonce. we're assuming it's the first single off her upcoming album and unsurprisingly it's a banger! both for the ears and the eyes. Beyonce debuted the audio for a free download exclusively through Tidal and the music video via Youtube. I am more than proud of Beyonce for not only releasing consistently great music but now even more using her platform to affect the culture and society through political messages in her music video. in the song, she's so vocal about her pride in being black.

Y'all haters corny with that illuminati mess
Paparazzi, catch my fly, and my cocky fresh
I'm so reckless when I rock my Givenchy dress (styling’)
I’m so possessive so I rock his Roc necklaces
My daddy Alabama, Momma Louisiana
You mix that negro with that Creole make a Texas mamma
I like my baby hair, with baby hair and afros
I like my negro nose with Jackson Five nostrils
Earned all this money but they never take the country out me
I got hot sauce in my bag, swag


she comes out swinging at all of the illuminati rumors, while reminding of her heritage (Tina and Matthew), being so american and yes so black. She gloats on how the thickness of her nose (well maybe not hers, but definitely mine, LOL) isn't a flaw, but it's something she likes and the african-american community should be proud of as well. Then, despite her level of success or fortune, she's still Beyonce from Texas.


I see it, I want it
I stunt, yeah, little hornet
I dream it, I work hard
I grind ‘til I own it
I twirl all my haters


Bey is defunking the "lazy, black stereotype" and making sure you know it didn't come easy.
Okay, okay, ladies, now let’s get in formation, cause I slay
Okay ladies, now let’s get in formation, cause I slay
Prove to me you got some coordination
Slay trick, or you get eliminated
sticking to her Girl Power movement, she's calling on women and maybe even female artists as well to get into formation. To assist with getting our crowns back, us as blacks. They're profound and touches deeply on the #BlackLivesMatter movement, but i definitely invite you to check out the video below! tomorrow February 7th is Super Bowl 50, where Beyonce, Coldplay and Bruno Mars will takeover the halftime show, i'm hoping she performs Formation! How do you like the video/song?
