Beyonce, Drake albums leave many with questions

Known as the queen of everything, Beyonce Knowles-Carter released an album that shocked everyone, even possibly her husband. Emotion, anger, sadness and a hint at a possible divorce, Beyonce’s new album “Lemonade” left everyone wondering whether she and Jay-Z will be separating.
The desperation of waiting for Beyonce to drop an album finally came when she released “Lemonade” on April 25. She had trailers, snippets, and even pictures that hinted at the album all over her social media, but even then no one saw it coming.

Titling it “When life gives you lemons make Lemonade,” after two days of release the album hit No. 1. Like any other the album comes with 12 songs, but these 12 songs left people, even myself thinking, “Has Jay-Z cheated on Beyonce?”

With one of the first songs on the album being called “Pray You Catch Me,” Beyonce starts off the first verse of the song with, “You can taste the dishonesty, it’s all over your breath as you pass,..”
Now who could she be talking about?

With just that one line I think Jay-Z did do something to her that made her feel like she was being lied to. Something else that has had people talking is the change of heart behind Beyonce music. A couple of years back she released a song called “Single ladies,” and she was ready for Jay-Z to put a ring on it, but on this new album she releases a song called “Sorry,” in which she says “Today I regret the night I put that ring on.”

Sounds like her love for Jay faded away in the last eight years.
Beyonce put this album out for a reason, to show people “I know what it’s like to be lied to and cheated on.” But what a twist this adds, because sources like ENews are saying the whole thing is a scam for Beyonce to reach more publicity. Some say even Jay-Z was in on the whole publicity stunt.

On camera Beyonce and Jay-Z both look happy and drama free, but with the way this album was written it seems they had more problems, well at least that’s what they want us to think.

In just one week you would think nothing else could top “Lemonade,” but boy were we wrong.

On Thursday, April 28, Aubrey Drake Graham released his newest album “Views.” Earlier in the week Drake had released his hit single, “One Dance,” but not many people saw the whole album coming out right after, even though they were aware of it months in advance.

Some were more excited than others, but “Views,” by far, one of his best heartfelt albums since “Take Care.” This new album is more than just the typical music about girls, drugs, and money, it goes beyond that. Most of the songs have a stronger meaning than others and his vocals are hitting notes that we haven’t experienced before.

Drake kicks off the album with “Keep the Family Close,” with the lyrics saying “All of my ‘let’s just be friends’ are friends I don’t have anymore / guess that’s what they say you need family for.” This one song made his fans realize that even with all the money and fame in the world you should always keep your family close.

Way to start off the album with a good message.

Drake also incorporated some indie type of beats to the album with his song, “One Dance,” which will get you in the mood to dance any time of day. The song has modern day beats mixed in with some Bollywood beats, makes you wonder “what took so long to release?”

Both being really big stars in the music industry, Beyonce and Drake really opened up a lot more with their newest albums, and exposed us to beats and lyrics that we would’ve never guessed they had.
