'This is not the same Beyonce'

The loyal fan army of Beyonce rushed to Twitter to share their valuable opinion on Beyonce’s ‘Renaissance’. “I repeat!!! THIS IS NOT THE SAME BEYONCE… she has grown and evolved as an artist so go into listening to this album with an open mind. 10/10 (fire) her mind!!!”, said an elated fan as another posted, “My honest review of the album from the first listen is there is definitely some great club/dance songs. However, overall this album is not an album I would listen to on a daily basis. This is more for that underground nightlife feel good music!” Another fan claimed, “My girl shi**ed on everybody!!!”
 
The next one tweeted, “Very interesting. I like it. “Plastic Off The Sofa” is the one that stuck out the most for me. Confirms what type of music listener I am. Definitely lean more towards mid-tempo to slow-tempo for R&B easily.” Whereas, another posted, “Ok. My life is changed. My wig is snatched. And I am currently on oxygen. But I also ain’t forgot my boxes.” Another individual asserted, “I can see this album being runway music for fashion week.. just fabulous, fun, upbeat, insane production, iconic.” And, one concluded, “Beyoncé girl this album I don’t think I’ll hear anything else this year!!! This album is soooo perfect!!!”
