5 years ago today, #Beyonce released “Formation.” The track was met with universal critical acclaim and sparked conversation on race relations in the US. It went on to win a Grammy Award, six VMAs and become a cultural phenomenon - ranking as the most Googled song of 2016.
A lot of people consider this song to be anti-white but I'd like to consider it pro black. Some white people like to think blacks showing pride in their race means they are trying to downgrade whites. That is simply not the case. It is just black people being proud of their heritage and culture and where they come from. I do not see what is wrong with that
As someone who is white and Native, it's really a shame to see how much white people seem to think that pro-this automatically means anti-that. Just look at BLM. I'm pro-BLM, but that certainly doesn't make me anti-police. Or how they seem to think pro-choice also means pro-abortion. It's ridiculous. Brings a whole new meaning to black-and-white.

Everybody saying they miss the old Beyoncé, but she wouldn't be near as iconic as she is now if she had kept doing the same shit she did 10 or even 20 years ago.
7 years later and I'm currently analysing the formation music video as part of my A-level creative media studies coursework, oh Beyonce, you will always be famous
Are the two in the beauty supply store trans or real women? I'm asking because I wanted to used them in a edit I want to make for a video but if they are dudes I won't be able to use them. It's for bw
urgent!! I was a trans woman and I was a prostitute and I also married several men and I was not happy. I traveled to many countries in search of happiness, I even sought happiness in drugs and drinking, it was a way I tried to fill the void in my heart. One day I was in my apartment in Rio de Janeiro in Ipanema with a guy, so I sent him away and talked to God to show me if hell was real. So I left and my soul left my body and I saw terrible things, souls falling into despair with a look of anguish and pain. they asked me for help and I saw the devil take the souls of those people. I heard screams, crying and despair. It was horrible. I saw my grandfather who died of a heart attack because he was an alcoholic and my grandfather died drunk. was there to drag him was terrible. I also saw a woman and a man who died here in Brazil in a fire in a nightclub called Kiss. the woman danced on her tortured nails, her gaze desperate. then I returned to earth and called a friend and my mother and told them what I had seen in hell. Today I am sure that hell is real and terrible. I have given my life to Jesus Christ, I read the Christian Bible, I follow the commandments of the Lord Jesus Christ, and I look forward to the return of Jesus Christ because I know that I will live in heaven with Jesus Christ. I cut my hair, removed the silicone and today I live assuming my original identity as a boy. I'm not a trans woman anymore because I know that's a sin and I know that there are sinners in hell who commit sins against God, whoever commits sin pleases the devil and when he dies he goes to hell! Jesus Christ loves you. accept Jesus Christ while you are alive. because if you die without Jesus Christ you will suffer eternally in hell. here is terrible!!!ooiuyewsx
It is already old, like a couple of months old. More than 6 months maybe? You know I am more than 34 years old. Listening to this song is like listening to a baby. You know what I mean? Do you like babies? I think they are cute, so innocent and so sweet. I wanna have babies like crazy! :)
Blue Sky she didn’t lighten her skin brown skins get lighter n darker sometimes also her hair is just not defined in the video thas y it look like that
to me,this is the best song on lemonade album, that's why I'm surprised that it didn't get more millions of views more,cause beat is hot and u got one of the most beautiful woman in the world
Waldo Waldo the reason is that this video had already been uploaded on youtube by a fake channel, not by beyoncèVEVO... now I think it has been deleted but I saw the video on that channel, and there were about 200 million views.
This video came out on February 6th. Everyone saw it on her website, bought it on TIDAL, watched one that someone else posted, or saw the one that she had private. She made it public because it was nominated for the Grammys.
@Jon Purisima its crazy to think she’s gonna top herself yet again... we all thought Self Titled would be her peak but right after that we got Lemonade and the Formation tour
Then y is the illumanti all over the internet asking ppl to join the famous influencers are in it .. And yeah jay z s interview about cheating on Beyonce he says new illumanti .... And what u looking up these ppl for it was all planned for her to do this they can't respect each other as a couple how do they respect black ppl jay z can't even respect his wife sap
They can never EVER make me hate you Bey! With immense success truly comes immense hate. This is probably why so many elders advise us to be cautious with who we share our success stories with. The lies and rumours will start when one’s success reaches new heights. For close to 3 decades they’ve been bringing their audacity to the table. You will forever keep winning!
Ffh Ffhns i know but that means that her music is excellent and that is just tea. 4 was leaked a month before its release and it became her lowest-selling album. I would've gone multi-platinium in the US... and ever since she's played herself but managed to have the best selling album by a black female this decade with BEYONCÉ (6.9M in pure sales and 9M SPS) and Lemonade is the best selling album of 2016 so she ISN'T a flop, not to mention Te Formation World Tour grossed 260M from 49 shows. But i mean, if she did the promo right, Lemonade would be at 5/6M by now even tho 2016 has the worst sales climate ever, but it is at 3M by now... and Formation could've turned into a HUGE WW smash hit. She's playing herself.
table kun I hope sooo 😭😭 watching bey with her lemonade opus was like watching what gaga was supposed to be in terms of pushing the envelope in music industry, but she didn't... Still happy cause she made a record that was healing for her tho
classyt20f7 I’m a Christian too. Stop doing all that. Your extra unnecessary. The Bible doesn’t tell you to ridicule. What cult church do you come from? Get out of here with all that psycho stuff.
*black women are whole mood they deserve all respect* edit: sorry if this came out as offensive or ignorant. it wasn't my intentions at all. i just meant it to be uplifting.. but i can delete if it makes anyone uncomfortable :))
@@Skyismify what? Everyone should be able to be treated with respect, its not something you earn. We dont need to prove ourselves to you so we can be treated equally.
@@stansomi7364 Who is we? But I and no one else owes you or anyone else respect. I don't care if you prove yourself, that's a totally different topic and one I don't even care about.

Black History Month 2021 brought me here 🖤 We can get back to celebrating being black 🖤♥️ shout out to all my kings and queens Lets get in Formation .....and stay there.
While this video was posted December 9 of 2016, it was really released well before that. I know this cause I flew to New Orleans in May 2016, got a view of the city on approach, and this video came to mind. Back of my mind was going “ok ladies now let’s get in formation.” That means it’s 8 years old.

2024, anyone? This woman had always been about speaking up and supporting the Black community, she tells our stories and showcases our histories, she also uplifts and contributes to our community by donating her hard earned money and wearing out products, seeing how she’s dedicated her entire life to her career, family and her community gives me chills and makes me tear up. I’m seeing this video now and crying my eyes out. Thank you so much BB. Sometimes i also feel we don’t deserve her.😢🌟❤️
I dont understand why there's a lot of people hating her for what she's doing. She's not a porn star, she's not a media attention seeker, she doesn't boast her life online about how rich she is, the media does that for her, whether it's true or not. I like the creative ideas that she brings with her music, that's all we should appreciate. It's insane how many white people hate her & some black people think she's overrated. Get a life, damn.
Both sisters are so different with their work, but both equally talented & beautiful. Everyone's entitled to their opinions yes, but my point is she's not doing anything wrong, she's encouraging younger generations to stand up for themselves black/white through music and her visual creations, she's more famous because of destiny's child & years of experience, Solange went through a lot of shit as everyone knows being a young mother, finally found herself musically during seat at my table, I'm sure Bey is more prouder than Solange is of herself & she is very protective of Bey, behind the fame & fortune their is genuine love. I personally think Beyonce' don't give a F about the fame, given a global platform to voice on for the sake of making the world a better place, even if it means fxcking up a few things, if I was in her shoes, I certainly wouldn't. She represented the southern culture in this video, all in all if I was Messy Mya, I'd probably be annoyed too, but humbled at the fact she doing the black america culture proud by showing the world America or white privileged americans, do not define african americans as the abomination of the earth.
ok that's fucked up i'm white and i like her so you can shut the fuck up about whites what are your guys problem with us whites some of us aren't complete douche bags
i am studying beyoncé for my a level media course, i've always loved her but analysing formation in full detail made me realise even more how incredible she is as a pop icon. there's seriously nobody else doing it like her, there's so much attention to detail and so much to unpick. props to bey, ion know what bell hooks was talking about edit: RIP bell hooks ❤️
same as well! i've used formation and lemonade on my finale's research and defense presentation. i will say, the one thing i've learned about this whole storyline from beyonce is so compelling if you're part of the discussion that tackles the pride of ancestry and the beauty of its heritage. this'll be her magnum opus forever that'll transcend more to many generations to come.
hahaha the same but I just learn it from our lecture not for the homework…but I do not fully understand about this mv in relation to representation, how do you think about in your course？
This video is truly ICONIC. Y’all have no idea how this song empowered me as a black woman in 2016. I was able to get my shit together in a year and I continue to twirl on my haters. I was also able to love myself the way I are thanks to Formation. This song is definitely a classic in my books.
@J Cor Thank you. Just had words with some snowflake who can't spell but God forbid she can't leave her ugly ass opinion all up in here!!! They fight & and argue & and hate about so many things, they forget how this video started!!!! Children!! This is a "Music Video", hence, the audio/visual references....

the day she dropped formation is a day that should be in history books. the whole LEMONADE ERA & BEYONCÈ’s IMPACT during 2016 needs to be studied and put in the books. she’s forever insane & iconic.
Beyonce, when this came out I was homeless, in and out of jail, and unhealthy. This song and "Clover Cage - Romeo and Juliet" are the two songs that helped with my depression. I just want everyone to know things will get better. We are in this together. I love you 💕🎉
I am a freshman in college and this is part of our homework, my professor seriously linked this video on his website for us to watch because we are starting a unit on pop culture in relation to the human psyche and struggle. If that doesn't tell you how iconic her music is idk what does
I'm a master's student. On Wednesday, my professor is having my graduate seminar watch the entire Lemonade film in class. Beyonce's work is seriously going to be remembered as one of our era's most iconic pieces of literature.
White man from Idaho here. I have no idea what you have been through. But I love you. And am here to listen and learn. You MATTER! Not just to me, but to the future of this country. I love you. Keep on keepin on!!!
I dont need to say sht to prove I'm not racist. Fk out of here with this bs everyone need to stop shooting eachother. 9 unarmed blacks killed by police in 2019. 45 cops dead. Who's really at risk. But people don't like facts do they. Stop buying into this bs
New Orleans still in the building, and still listening. And to everyone, it doesn't matter where you're from or where you live, if you have haters, or anybody that's jealous of you or envious of you, just keep pushing forward. And always remember to "stay gracious, the best revenge is your paper".
@@Smile-w1v You have to be in the game for at least 30 years to be a Legend. And you have to prove that you brought something to the table. Not nothing borrowed and coped.
*nothing* - I lived in New Orleans in 2017 and there was still impassable flooding during thunderstorms which happened daily in New Orleans by the way because it's so humid that it has to rain every single day in the summertime, because even 12 years post-katrina, there was still only TWO PUMPS functioning under the city. That's just all I have time for right now essentially I live in North Carolina in the west and we got f***** by Helene and not even the churches came for us first, the only reason we're getting the treatment we are now is because it's an election year. Climate change doesn't cause more storms it causes worse storms, Katrina was 19 years ago What is going to happen if a bigger storm hits?
@@keepingupwitdafords938 That's exactly why we have to keep talking about it, I would have never known had I not lived there. The South East is in danger, and the government really needs to be held accountable. If you can apply for assistance, do. We need to stop covering the cost for the people we pay to take care of us. Stay patient and keep talking and keep asking questions.
I attended the Renaissance tour last month and Bey played this song as an extra and when I tell you we lost it when it came on. The slow boil ultimately cultivated in a grand party that we all couldn’t get enough of. Thank you queen Bey for this experience ❤️🔥
I literally would’ve cried hearing this live. I remember when she debuted the song at the Super Bowl performance with Bruno Mars and Maroon 5 I believe. It was a groundbreaking experience for people of color, but she really showed the world that she meant business when she dropped this track.🎉
@@MadeleineLouiseDiRosathis song is definitely a testament to all people of colour before and after beyonce, and the world we can create if we all prioritise equality. so yes, i appreciate its meaning as well as the fact that it’s a bop

"Formation" was actually released in 2016 as part of Beyoncé's "Lemonade" album. It's a powerful anthem that celebrates black culture, empowerment, and resilience. The song, with its bold lyrics and striking visuals, sparked conversations about race, feminism, and social justice. Even though it's been a few years since its release, "Formation" remains a cultural touchstone, continuing to inspire and provoke thought.
Idk why yall worried with the views when the message is more important than this. I'm sure Beyoncé doesn't care for views or sales when she's giving her message. I don't care if this video has only 8M or 100M views Formation is the most awarded video by a female artist of all time (I'm happy that everyone is catching the message that *BLACK LIVES MATTER* and being black is beautiful) and y'all worried about views, omg stfu.
Princess Ivy I'm happy it's getting the recognition it should be getting but it is not the most awarded video of all time. "Bad Romance" by Lady Gaga is then it's Beyonces "Single Ladies". Formation is in the Top 10 female videos but it is not the most awarded female video

Waldo Waldo the reason is that this video had already been uploaded on youtube by a fake channel, not by beyoncèVEVO... now I think it has been deleted but I saw the video on that channel, and there were about 200 million views.
THIS VIDEO CAME OUT IN APRIL. SHE JUST POSTED IT 3 WEEKS AGO, EVERYONE HAS SEEN IT ON TIDAL, HBO AND ITUNES FOR 7 MONTHS.
This video came out on February 6th. Everyone saw it on her website, bought it on TIDAL, watched one that someone else posted, or saw the one that she had private. She made it public because it was nominated for the Grammys.

They can never EVER make me hate you Bey! With immense success truly comes immense hate. This is probably why so many elders advise us to be cautious with who we share our success stories with. The lies and rumours will start when one’s success reaches new heights. For close to 3 decades they’ve been bringing their audacity to the table. You will forever keep winning!

LemonJuice she actually does. She's played herself so much ever since 4 flopped due to its leak...
Guillem Gamell she isn't a flop tho. lol her album has a 92 rating and the best album of 2016
Ffh Ffhns if she isn't a flop how come she's only sold 2M in a year and Adele has sold 20M?🤗
Ffh Ffhns i know but that means that her music is excellent and that is just tea. 4 was leaked a month before its release and it became her lowest-selling album. I would've gone multi-platinium in the US... and ever since she's played herself but managed to have the best selling album by a black female this decade with BEYONCÉ (6.9M in pure sales and 9M SPS) and Lemonade is the best selling album of 2016 so she ISN'T a flop, not to mention Te Formation World Tour grossed 260M from 49 shows. But i mean, if she did the promo right, Lemonade would be at 5/6M by now even tho 2016 has the worst sales climate ever, but it is at 3M by now... and Formation could've turned into a HUGE WW smash hit. She's playing herself.
Love this video, she truly cemented herself as a queen this year

7 years later and this is still iconic and so is beyonce
While this video was posted December 9 of 2016, it was really released well before that. I know this cause I flew to New Orleans in May 2016, got a view of the city on approach, and this video came to mind. Back of my mind was going “ok ladies now let’s get in formation.” That means it’s 8 years old.
When Beyonce says "Always stay gracious, best revenge is your paper", I felt that.

Beyonce for president! ✊
I dont understand why there's a lot of people hating her for what she's doing. She's not a porn star, she's not a media attention seeker, she doesn't boast her life online about how rich she is, the media does that for her, whether it's true or not. I like the creative ideas that she brings with her music, that's all we should appreciate. It's insane how many white people hate her & some black people think she's overrated. Get a life, damn.
havake I mean there's nothing wrong with thinking she's overrated. I like her far more talented sister and can't fathom why she's more famous.
Both sisters are so different with their work, but both equally talented & beautiful. Everyone's entitled to their opinions yes, but my point is she's not doing anything wrong, she's encouraging younger generations to stand up for themselves black/white through music and her visual creations, she's more famous because of destiny's child & years of experience, Solange went through a lot of shit as everyone knows being a young mother, finally found herself musically during seat at my table, I'm sure Bey is more prouder than Solange is of herself & she is very protective of Bey, behind the fame & fortune their is genuine love. I personally think Beyonce' don't give a F about the fame, given a global platform to voice on for the sake of making the world a better place, even if it means fxcking up a few things, if I was in her shoes, I certainly wouldn't. She represented the southern culture in this video, all in all if I was Messy Mya, I'd probably be annoyed too, but humbled at the fact she doing the black america culture proud by showing the world America or white privileged americans, do not define african americans as the abomination of the earth.
ok that's fucked up i'm white and i like her so you can shut the fuck up about whites what are your guys problem with us whites some of us aren't complete douche bags
i could'nt of said it better i love beyonce and im white shes an amazing song writer and singer
just because someone doesn't like her music doesn't mean they have to get a life ??????
i am studying beyoncé for my a level media course, i've always loved her but analysing formation in full detail made me realise even more how incredible she is as a pop icon. there's seriously nobody else doing it like her, there's so much attention to detail and so much to unpick. props to bey, ion know what bell hooks was talking about
edit: RIP bell hooks ❤️
me too we should compare notes
same as well! i've used formation and lemonade on my finale's research and defense presentation. i will say, the one thing i've learned about this whole storyline from beyonce is so compelling if you're part of the discussion that tackles the pride of ancestry and the beauty of its heritage. this'll be her magnum opus forever that'll transcend more to many generations to come.

urgent!! I was a trans woman and I was a prostitute and I also married several men and I was not happy. I traveled to many countries in search of happiness, I even sought happiness in drugs and drinking, it was a way I tried to fill the void in my heart. One day I was in my apartment in Rio de Janeiro in Ipanema with a guy, so I sent him away and talked to God to show me if hell was real. So I left and my soul left my body and I saw terrible things, souls falling into despair with a look of anguish and pain. they asked me for help and I saw the devil take the souls of those people. I heard screams, crying and despair. It was horrible. I saw my grandfather who died of a heart attack because he was an alcoholic and my grandfather died drunk. was there to drag him was terrible. I also saw a woman and a man who died here in Brazil in a fire in a nightclub called Kiss. the woman danced on her tortured nails, her gaze desperate. then I returned to earth and called a friend and my mother and told them what I had seen in hell. Today I am sure that hell is real and terrible. I have given my life to Jesus Christ, I read the Christian Bible, I follow the commandments of the Lord Jesus Christ, and I look forward to the return of Jesus Christ because I know that I will live in heaven with Jesus Christ. I cut my hair, removed the silicone and today I live assuming my original identity as a boy. I'm not a trans woman anymore because I know that's a sin and I know that there are sinners in hell who commit sins against God, whoever commits sin pleases the devil and when he dies he goes to hell! Jesus Christ loves you. accept Jesus Christ while you are alive. because if you die without Jesus Christ you will suffer eternally in hell. here is terrible!!!bhbcxxy

That's just all I have time for right now essentially I live in North Carolina in the west and we got f***** by Helene and not even the churches came for us first, the only reason we're getting the treatment we are now is because it's an election year.

"Formation" was actually released in 2016 as part of Beyoncé's "Lemonade" album. It's a powerful anthem that celebrates black culture, empowerment, and resilience. The song, with its bold lyrics and striking visuals, sparked conversations about race, feminism, and social justice. Even though it's been a few years since its release, "Formation" remains a cultural touchstone, continuing to inspire and provoke thought.

Camila G but... come on she sabotages herself and it's beyond bizarre & it's frustrating as a fan.
LadyiSh09 what do you mean sabatoge?
Slay
preach
Man she shoulda kept this video up the first time....it would been at 100 mil views
Celtic1Master more
Celtic1Master somebody else uploaded the video, that's why it had more views
Celtic1Master More like 1 billion
link11341 ayyyyyyyyy
George Harris Arianator well then she shoulda uploaded it sooner lol
Beyoncé is the queen
4:35
Even if you arent a fan you have to admit that this song is catchy af
Isaiah Woods this song is a piece of shit
Isaiah Woods This song is always stuck in my head. ITS AMAZING 😍
no, it's one of her worst song
Raffledramento it shows how much all lives matter
Raffledramento her worst sings surpassed crazy in love and single ladies in awards
Idk why yall worried with the views when the message is more important than this. I'm sure Beyoncé doesn't care for views or sales when she's giving her message. I don't care if this video has only 8M or 100M views Formation is the most awarded video by a female artist of all time (I'm happy that everyone is catching the message that *BLACK LIVES MATTER* and being black is beautiful) and y'all worried about views, omg stfu.
Princess Ivy OMG finally the truth😍😍😍
Princess Ivy if the message is so important then you would definately want all people to know about it
Princess Ivy I'm happy it's getting the recognition it should be getting but it is not the most awarded video of all time. "Bad Romance" by Lady Gaga is then it's Beyonces "Single Ladies". Formation is in the Top 10 female videos but it is not the most awarded female video
No, Formation is already the most awarded video by a female artist of all time, surpassed Bad Romance last year and we still have the Grammy's.
no, it is def. not the most awarded female video of all time, it is the most awarded female video of 2016.

Awww!!! Good!!! Always be proud to be black!! Know your hair and skin are beautiful and God-given! So happy to see someone be happy to be themselves. Self love is important
#proudtobeblack
Cindy M. Torres you should be
😂🤣
Does that mean its ok to be white now? If we are equall than we can feel equal pride for our race correct?
The fact that she got boycotted by the police and was turned against by New York's mayor when this came out. Ridiculous. A great song, with a great message. Just ahead of its time.
In fact, just in time.
Not ahead, police brutalities against black people have been around for a looooong time
@@rodoc.4072 spot on! Love it when she makes bold tracks
@@malouf.4456 it infuriates me but yeah you’re so right! Really hope that all cops that are racist got scared of the massive reaction people nowadays give when something terrible happens. It was never okay, but it definitely needs to stop now! Enough is enough! 😤
I’ll never forget the day this dropped and I’ll never forget the goosebumps I got during the Super Bowl.

Mr. Ryu I saw these braids I'm trying to go in the salon now and I don't wear braids only the beautiful B..
