Hmmm, girlies, I'm a bit conflicted on this one. The pros? It slaps, for one, and y'all know I love a bop! This shit has currently got me duckwalking at midnight in my bedroom and I hope my neighbors are enjoying the show. Another positive is the title makes me think of Robyn's
Stars 4-Ever - another bop! Wow! And, just to fill out the rule of threes, it's kinda fun that this has, like, 20 different credited writers. Seriously. Look it up! And DJ Khaled produced it?! Do you think Beyonce secretly removed all his ad libs?
My only real issue with the song is the continued narrative of Bey and Jay dunking on the poors, which in this election cycle just leaves me feeling low-key weird...? Am I reading too much into this? Between the Jay NFL shit and Bey carrying a billion-dollar diamond-studded clutch to a
charity event and all kinds of other shit, it just...I don't know. Beyonce should celebrate her successes and is certainly entitled to do so, but when is it enough, sis? What's next? Endorsing Buttigieg? There are other ways to embarrass the haters, and besides, do you even
have haters anymore? Tucker Carlson probably split open his khakis dropping it low to this track.
But whatever, we all know Beyonce could spit on me and call me trash and I'd probably just say thank you, so instead of any of the above I'll just whine that this goes on a little too long and then I'll go back to shimmying.
