- Beyoncé and JAY-Z dropped their collaborative album 'Everything is Love' out of nowhere on Saturday, June 16. Featuring shots at Spotify, the Grammys, and the Super Bowl Halftime Show, the nine-track LP immediately became a topic of conversation. To discuss the momentous event, host Rob Markman brought in Genius' senior artist relations manager Mikey Fresh and senior news producer Hillary Crosley-Coker on the latest episode of 'For the Record.'

People are so used to dumbed down lyrics they can't understand the art. The concept is they are premiere artist that they can't be quantified. When the mona lisa was painted it took x amount of years to be celebrated. And so many bars go over the heads of the younger generation they won't get until it 20+ years later.
Old people are so focused on lyrics that they forget that concepts, vision and mainly the SOUND matters. For someone who has films on the username and that references Mona Lisa you dont know about art. Jean-Michel Basquiat for example wasnt about the "lyrics", there is a concept and a language that goes with it. Same thing for today's music. Illmatic is a classic mainly because of the poetry, Mystic Styles is a classic because of the groundbreaking sounds, this trash Eminem is making is not. "Dumbed down" lyrics are not really dumbed down they just have a different approach to their art just like Classicism is different from Cubism. Dumbass.
@MXXMM Well said!
The album was amazing and really celebratory. It’s deceptive deep and really warrants multiple listens!
Friends, Summer and Boss are standout tracks
get your ears checked out
My ears are fine. Thanks.
Too bad no one bought it
And yet the tour grossed millions and sold out stadiums. Yes, too bad 🙄
❤ 100% Nice and apeshit are dope though
I'm a hardcore Beyoncé stan and a little bit of a fan of Jay-Z but I never really love *Everything is Love* at first, maybe I was forced to like it but as time passed, I realized it was a really good album. The arrangements, harmonies, bars, atmosphere, the genre mix-ups, etc. It is outstanding. It is still better than all the trap crap we get from other artists though.
I listened to the album and I really enjoyed it. I feel that it wasn't meant to be too complex or deep. Both Beyoncé and Jay already have given us "depth" but the kind of fun that Beyoncé, specifically, was having reminded me of the kind of fun she was having with "B'Day". That kind of fun, expressive energy. What I will say is that this album is VERY current and extremely "right now". I think that was on purpose. The album was crafted for the tour, On the Run II. I like Bey having fun and not being too intense the way she was on Lemonade. Jay was being Jay. He flexed extremely hard all over this. It's different from "4:44". I like that.
This album is like your parents trying to be cool. Didnt like it.
cut it out
Very well worded
Yes I definitely got B-Day vibes from this too. Love it
Great view on the album. Especially the last part.
Everyone tries to shit on Jay Z and massage the beehive. Honestly i was listening to HOV verses much more on this project.
Marr Tinnn
I love Bey, but same. Hov don't owe me nothing, he went crazy. I love this album
I haven't enjoyed Jay's rapping like this in a long time. He was spitting knowledge on every track
Let's be honest, Jay-Z was a feature through this whole album. Beyoncé runs their whole enterprise 😂
Simone Umba seems legit, i always agree that she does / would make more financially than jay ever can on tour or via entertainment.
stop being so delusional
Why are u people comparing a married couple???
They're both amazing artist but of course The Queen will accumulate more, Hov is a rapper, Beyonce is the greatest entertainer period.
happy wife happy life.
You girls don’t appreciate shit even worse when we trying to be gentlemanly to you
Im just amazed by how social media is so judgemental when jay and B and are trying to show Black excellence, how black familys can work through a struggle and come out on top, this the problem with our society, they do so much for the community and all kids of every color.. Enjoy this be blessed we still have older Icons putting out Good grown music and still appealing to the youth, are they suppose grow old and die off? Who gives any of you the right to just flat out hate... I love Black Excellence... Cash them checks jay and B ill be doing the same while the these haters live on...
Just because they are a good family model means that their work will be automatically dope!!! actually this album is just trash juice!!! let's not lie to ourselves!
FAHAD MOHAMED preach
Ebin Jones has nothing to do with black excellence. It’s not their best project. I’m a huge fan of Beyonce. That album is not great. I bought 4 songs. They could’ve done better
Race has nothing to do with this the album thrash take that L
See the annoying part is when it's an artist you like it's "inspirational" "black excellence". If you just heard a migos song, they would get criticized for being materialistic. Let's be real, Beyonce and Jay Z just flexed like stereotypical rappers do on this project. Let's not turn it into some fake woke shit about how they are so inspirational, nah.
This album is classic like fine wine it’s going to take time for people to get it. I was so amazing for ways that many just wont get and I am no fan of hers but it was emotional for me listening to it
Same ❤ it's brilliant
I would disagree...I feel like most of their collaborations are DOPE.
I loved every song without trap beats. My favorite ones were Black Effect and Nice
i looove heard about us
Y’all are bugging. This album was straight fire 🔥
STRAIGHT 🔥 🔥 100%
The lyrics on this album is phenomenal. Great producing as well
I love it..adult rap..none of the extra goofy kiddie shit
Talk about Nasir with people that actually know about music.
Best comment! Please do ! Cause that ''ye" good/bad conversation was THEE worst 35-40m I've watched and wish I could reclaim/refund my time.
This ain’t Nasir review either. it’s mad reaction on it go watch one.
this guy said 'WHO COULD RENT OUT THE LOUVE' lol if you go on their website it shows you that it has rental prices, anyone can rent the lourve out
Not everybody has the coins is what they ment
but its not even millionaire type money to rent it, and how would you know what they mean? they didn't even know you could rent the louve
Louvre*
Not everyone kim and kanye wanted to rent it out but the louve rejected their request but they accepted Beyoncé and Jay's
Aye Hollywood and Shinning were the shit ! Ole girl need to chill
I really like these sit down genius reviews/interviews. Great job Rob and the Genius crew
GOOD releasing music that are actually pushing the sounds forward and you dont talk about it, all you can talk about is how Kanye triggered you.
Nah their not , all sound like old Kanye beats .
TDE***
China Gayl Simple things, Violent Crimes, Cops, 4th dimension, Cudi Montage and so on doesnt sound like "old kanye beats". It doesnt even make sense this generalized statement you made.
tdestantoomuch TDE doesnt even come close, they released Redemption which sounds kinda generic specially considering how great Jay Rock's previous album was. Black Panther soundtrack sonically fits the concept of the movie, interesting, some boldness to it but it is not that forward, experimental and so on... it was better than the movie itself though.
Awesome convo and insight. Subscribing!
This was dope. I enjoyed this!
This girl is missing everything. This album is complete fire. Not one bad song. Its not supposed to be the most lyrical/ballad filled album. It's a peek into the thoughts they share. If you want to know them personally you never will. People talking like they haven't had mystique their whole career.
Its brilliant. Beyonce's tone and vocals and Jay with those bars. Its amazing. And Bey drops some bars too. But u have to catch them and understand them.
I didn’t like this album initially, but after a few weeks I loved it, each song is fire and the album has such a vibe to it 🔥
Album ain't good...its fire
Loved this whole damn discussion
Dope album can't put it down
Best reviews on TH-cam no doubt actually talk about the music 🔥🌶️
Pharrell is on other level
THIS WAS A DOPE DISCUSSION. SALUTE !
Good show!
About the married again part em Lovehappy: there's a new video of they on a cerimonY with the 3 kids. It's on the last song of the on the run 2. during on 'forever young' clip.
Still listening in 2021
I haven't listened to the album yet, but I appreciate the format and energy of "For The Record". It's becoming my favourite place to hear albums reviewed.
so good!!!
I enjoyed a few tracks on the album. Nothing too special.
it was pretty generic
Exactly!
i would love a podcast version of this segment
honestly wasn't that interested in hearing this project but every joint i heard was dope ~
Where are the comments?????
How is it trash plz explain.. Track to track..
Ebin Jones It’s dope and very poetic
Never listened to lemonade so listened to it after the Beyonce and jay z album, to My honest opinion lemonade is slightly more better than the new one
Lemonade was a great album this new shit is just mediocre
Dr. Smiley Face "more better"?
Yeah that's the general consensus. I agree too
Great album, their is no feature they’re married he raps she sings ,both on top of their game witch gives you a supper album on where they are in they’re life LOVE
Light skin Feefo
Austin light skinned Martin Lawrence vibes
This man really said wilding
THIS ALBUM IS BLACK HISTORYYYY!!!!!
transgender history
lmao what do you mean?
They are actually going to go back on tour to the cities before the album release and perform the new songs!
"This album helps bring Jay-Z and Beyonce back down to Earth." 6:37 BWHAHAHAHAHAHAHAH This is the most un-relatable album either of them have dropped yet.
Hil is on Point
Kind of wild this is the first thing each of them put out after Lemonade and 4:44 which were both amazing
I've watched over 100 reactions and everyone loved it.
It really seem like y'all are trying to compare Jay and Bey.
stop lying what reactions did you watch, were those from like musicians ?
Goldberg Brian
I'm not even a huge Beyonce or JayZ fan, but the truth is the truth. The Album is good. The Greatest entertainer in the world and the greatest Rapper. Of course it was going #1
Goldberg Brian
The truth is the truth, she is the best entertainer in the world. Period. She's an American, men lie, women lie, but numbers don't
Im feeling the album a lot and I’m not even a Beyonce fan so it’s weird that I’m feeling it and the real fans aren’t
dude, first lines of the video, I knew I was gonna agree with what y'all was sayin.
Only song I didn't really like was apeshit. The rest was really good.
AutisticWhale 2 I only like it with the video, that’s it
13:07 "Is there a migos reference track?"
13:20 I was speaking to a dude about the reference track by migos.(paraphrased)
neon guts pt.2 lol facts
Wow, I bet she's really fun at parties. Lol
I've just aged out of hip hop. The only artists I can stomach from this era are like Skyzoo, Joey Badass, and Apollo Brown projects. Everything that hits makes no sense to me. And this album is no exception. I'll be iiight, tho. I still got my old shit to fall back on. This new shit is for y'all.
Word Lifer Did you peep that black thought ep and phonte solo album.
Shot By Nolan Of course. I'm really just referring to this new generation and the direction of hip hop. Thought and Phone arent from this era. Thought's EP was epic. Phonte's was nice af. But they're both artists from eras when hip hop was what I knew it as. And the vast majority of people who claim to be into hip hop (these kids these days) never heard it and dont gaf about actual hip hop. Bugs me out.
One of the greatest albums of all time ⚡️🗝🎼👑👑
Do a genius on NF WHY
How to spot A hater or A plant"
Hating is when you make more than one comment expressing your displeasure with the same topic, we heard you the first time.
*Shawn Carter voice* Chea, ha ha. I think Imma take a back seat and let you take the lead on the whole album, B. Cuz you know...I fucked up a couple times...But you know Imma rock these feature verses tho, ha ha. HOV
this project is too much for me to take in at one time.. too much fritz and frilly shit going on, im not that interested in taking this in, at all.
Acid Reflux then don't lol y'all kill me with these opinions like the album sucks it don't ape sh*t literally has almost 30mill views on here I'm just a few days but ok
pprchsn11 try again... if think that music is just appealing because of it's views then you have another thing coming..... which is saying alot concerning what the standard is, being judged off with today's quality of music.
hey look i have twelve likes just on this post, whereas there is your comment given your point of view...
feel me ?
what the hell is “fritz and frilly shit”
Shot By Nolan pom-poms and hairspray raps homes 🎉🎉🎉🎆🎇✨🎊🎊🎊🤣
No one talking bout how quavo wrote apeshit 😂😂😂😂😂😂
Tyrion Lannister they’ve been talking about all over the internet since yesterday. Everyday Struggle did a whole section on it as well. Not a big deal. He wrote Beyoncé singing parts, NOT the Jay Z raps obviously.
No one talking about how cardib had a team of writers so she wouldnt a one hit wonder
Tyrion Lannister who cares bro like tht nigga blessed to be on a track with Black Excellence the billionaires of rap and rnb.. Just respect fam.. Smh
They not talking because its the worse song on the Album lol
Swae Lee wrote Formation, The Dream wrote Single Ladies, NeYo wrote Irreplaceable. It's Beyonce and she's a Pop star. But if you think Offset or Quavo is capable of writing ANYTHING for Hov then your smoking dix
They aint tryin
16:02 ON POINT!!! It's not empowerment, it's digs and drags. #trash
It Was A Dope Album!! Jay Is The Greatest Ever & Bey Is Great.
Hilary is beautiful
Listened to the album this morning. Sick and tired of the triplet cadence rhythm rhymes. Done with it.
I love the album, I can't stop listening to it or watching everything surrounding it
It's on ONE song.
Apeshit is the only 1 with triple time
Nia R. Nope. Listen closely to Nice and Friends. Similar flow. Shit is whack.
Philosopher King thanks but no thanks. I’ll hit that skip immediately.
3.5 stars?? You two are out of it. This album is a easy 5 stars.
I'm a young kid and boss and apeshit were most catchy and memorable 12:48
12:38
All of these Genius shits are mad dry safe conversations .
the caters everything love listen Good music awesome 2018 favorite album that black experience
Mikey is cute
Boss is one of the best records on there.
They won a Grammy for Drunk In Love tho
✊🏿👍🏿✊🏿👍🏿🎵🎶
4.5 stars
They're not relationship goals, your parents, grandparents or close relatives with GREAT relationships should be your goals! Grown people claiming relationship goals to a cheating scandalous couple baffles me
Album sounded like they was tryna be hip .. Very generic and patronizing
trey doe how is it sounding like its tryna be hip when no rappers on the radio are making records like Summer, 713, Black Effect or Love Happy? No one else is bringing back hard knocking, soul samples & vocals to Hip Hop right now. 3 songs on the album sound like whats on the radio and if they didn't have them songs I guarantee y'all would be complaining how B&J are old & washed
trey doe I’m good on every MLK blvd
well, it's not like a lot of people are gonna buy it after listening to that...
How is singing about your friendships a problem?
For people complaining about the “trap beats” or that the album isn’t that good or has no depth, remember they mainly made it to tour. Not to win Album of the year
Really!! People break up every day with out being on reality TV. They are Stars and in the lime light! 1st of all, Why should they sit back and let you'll create the narrative? Like what you'll doing now? So girl please! This album say Fu*k that!! Secondly, people use their life in their art all the time!!
I am distracted by the beauty of that broad!!!!
Where is nas . Wtf
Fitting in the landscape of "Crappy Collaborations" isn't ideal for any artist
18:06 NOOOO. You sound like a teenager. “Relationship goals”??? What?! Come on. Perspective. NO ONE should be ‘goals’.
Keri WHOlson?
Apeshit is the only song that was bad. The album is good. Jay did amazing y'all tripping.
*slow clap Nice one jay, you one upped Nas
😁😁😁😁
soooooo we just gonna skim over Jay shitting on Drake??
What is that woman talking about. Where is the paintings of Black people as slaves in the 1800's???
If you know anything most paintings of melanated people in the 18th and 19th century actually shows black royalty in paintings
those were black moors you know these women don't study shit.
Yellow Synth
Exactly, I have over 100 photos in my phone of old oil on canvas paintings of Moorish people all throughout Europe and Arabia
I live in the united kingdom those paintings are everywhere
The Louvre apparently has few paintings of African descendants depicted not as slaves.
They are called the moors
I really enjoy it; it's exactly my vibe right now wit Adult Contemporary Hip Hop. I'm surprised the reactions aren't unanimous but maybe its just my personal taste
OkItsOurTube same
They keep deleting my comments. This roundtable lacks in-depth knowledge and discussion about music, they are extremely biased too. This Jay Z album is generic pop billboard hot garbage, nobody will remember, talk about or study this album in 20 years.
MXXMM yeah, they’re definitely on the hype train, the lady especially was going on about anything but the music. How did it sound to you? Haven’t been interested enough to check yet
Gnar It has a run of the mill friendly formulaic trappy pop sound, nothing bold or new. Imagine it like a worse version of Beyonce's lemonade soundwise.
MXXMM I agree this show should stick to interviewing artists.
I feel like this album was more so to show the younger gen that they can make current music also, moreso w/ Apeshit and Heard about us. I'm positive they didn't make the album to be a think piece lol they just having fun. Black Effect, 713, and Boss go really hard tho imo. Not everything gotta be a think piece tbh but that's just me.
Sabokaye Esoco Beyonce has already been in the game for 20 years and is still on top so.... lol she did it once, she'll do it again.
Outside of a couple of a TH-camrs, no one is talking about this album...why because it’s T R A S H.
They deleted my comment LOL These roundtables are ridiculous, it lacks in-depth knowledge about music and it is bias toward a lot of people. This album is good? it is generic, pop billboard bullshit, nobody will be talking or studying this album in 20 years.

Vincent Kline but you left this comment? Why, if you don’t care? 🤷🏾♂️
That was dumb wack 😂😂😂
She is trying to make it to a billionare status without having to include jz's income. She is trying to sell a lot all at once a tour an album ivy park clothing line and god knows what else. Beyonce looks at people as suckers. Do not become one.
She’s been a billionaire sweetheart.
88rising Midsummer Madness official lyrics and meaning! do it
I'll give it a 1/2 star
I wish people will stop calling this black excellence. It's an okay album. They have had better albums seperately. This better not produce a Trap Beyonce.
I agree with you but trap Beyonce been a thing since 2013...
