Queen Bey makes an artistic return to her thrown after giving viewers quite the surprise on Saturday when she released the emotional and mature “Lemonade,” a visual album that aired on HBO.

“Lemonade” features 13 songs – 12 of which have videos that are featured on the 60 minute movie that comes with the digital purchase. This is Beyoncé’s sixth studio album that debut at No. 1, according to billboard.com, and is her most mature album yet. “Lemonade” is dreamy, powerful and honest. It also shows Beyoncé at her most vulnerable state as she passionately sings about her confessions as a pop star who is constantly in the limelight.

The album has many themes including love, betrayal, isolation and denial. This is enough to make heads spin — and definitely enough to make the Internet swoon with a thousand heart eye emojis.

The album opens with the singer’s solo and hit single, “Pray You Catch Me.” The song is one of Beyoncé’s most honest tracks yet because you can hear and feel the emotion in her voice through the song. The eerie pianos add to the pain in her voice and enhance all the emotions she’s had bottled up.

“You can taste the dishonesty, it’s all over your breath.”

This is my favorite line of the song because you can sense the anger and hurt in her voice. “Pray You Catch Me” is a wonderfully surprising starter to the album. Usually, Queen Bey greets listeners with something more energetic, but this is a pleasant surprise because it demonstrates her maturity.

“Hold Up,” the album’s second track, is a reminder of how fierce Beyoncé truly is. Her stone cold voice adds to the pent-up anger she is feeling in the song.

This is a very empowering song for women, and I like how Beyoncé acts as a voice for women who are afraid to say how they feel.

“Hold Up” is every crazy girl’s anthem. It is also enjoyable to watch the music videos because I have never seen Beyoncé so angry. I like that she is using this album to release all the emotions she’s had bottled up after constantly being in the public eye.

“Formation,” is another one of my favorites because, like “Hold Up,” it is empowering and catchy. I see it as another anthem for women because the song is telling us all to “form” together to create a newer and better form of sisterhood and empowerment.

I enjoyed “Lemonade” because it showcases real emotions. While she is a great singer and performer and always produces hit songs and albums, “Lemonade” is her best album yet because it shows Beyoncé at her most vulnerable, honest state as an artist.

I was pleasantly surprised to see that she included themes of depression, anger and betrayal in this album because I have never taken Beyoncé as a musician who could display these types of emotions. Most of her songs are upbeat, so to see her take a different route musically is refreshing.

I like that she made this a visual album because it is unlike anything I have ever seen before. Beyoncé put an ample amount of hard work into this album and it definitely shows.
