display name 4,360 Posted January 4, 2017 Share Posted January 4, 2017 I believe most of the samples, if not all of them, are credited in Lemonade's booklet. Anyway, I don't think it's right to drag Beyoncé for her use of sampling with her latest album. The songs she's released are quite different from what was sampled in each case. "Maps" and "Hold Up," for example, are two very different songs. Sampling is sometimes used to cover up for a lack of creativity at times, but at other times, it can interesting to see how two artists can use the same sound so differently, expressing different ideas. Whether it was Beyoncé's idea to sample so much or not, it was done well. Anyway, some of you guys seem a bit too bothered by Beyoncé's success, but what's new?

Addison Rae 16,717 Posted January 4, 2017 Share Posted January 4, 2017 The essays I don't think there is anything really wrong with sampling plus Beyoncé did a good job constructing it into a personal album. Not just saying this because I stan her and I know that she may not do all of her own work but it takes creativity to produce quality work. sitting on his lap sipping diet pepsi Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Posted January 4, 2017 Share Posted January 4, 2017 Only reason Bey is seen as this "legend" is because of her amazing performances, the dances, the fire, spotlights, her outfits, globally how she presents her show. But remove all that glitter, and imagine Beyonce singing all of her discography without dancing or being distracted by lights and fire, it's gonna get boring, cause her songs ain't all THAT. The only amazing songs are Drunk In Love, and Crazy In love but then all her discography is basic. She had better songs with Destiny's child. So I don't understand the hype and never will. I've been to her concert in 2014 and I gotta be honest near the end when she'd sing songs like Halo, or Forever Young I got bored and wished I could be at Aaliyah's concert instead.
