I remember when this album came out. I was at the Waffle House near my school and was eating with my friends. I just randomly when on iTunes because i was bored and all I saw was this black and pink banner that read BEYONCE. And then more banners popped up and i was like "oh Beyonce released a new single." Then I saw more and was like "no wait. Its an album?!" I panicked for a moment. I saw the Drake and Frank features, the videos and was compelled to rush to my dorm and watch it. Everybody was going crazy over it. I'll never forget that. I hope to do the same with my art one day.
Well..... 3years later I hope you did something with your art!!! #iwannasee
Ty McKinnie Mann I was at home on punishment abs my sister ran in my room screaming Beyoncé Beyoncé Beyoncé I ran to her room and see the album and we literally cried for 45 mins STRAIGHT man her eras be strong
Ty McKinnie basically the same with me. I was randomly browsing iTunes , looking for her music that I may not have downloaded yet and there it was! In all it’s glory. 🖤
Never give up ❤️
I had this same feeling when ANTI, Lemonade and Ctrl came out.
I love how she says "My dreams" this woman still has dreams when she's a living dream. Wow👏🏽
Dreamers never stop dreaming that's what keeps them successful

I'm so happy she is finally relaxing with her music and showing the real her.. The beyonce who gets drunk sometimes... Feels vulnerable.. Feels jealous... Feels sexy... Feels loved... Feels loss... Feels happy... This is the beyonce I have been waiting for she's made me fall in love with her all over again
I would ask what would make her happiest in a world of confusion
I think Beyonce is extremely intelligent, well spoken, analytical thinker. People who say otherwise are just haters.
She's probably such a cool ass chick to hangout with! She never appears to come across snobby or narcissistic... but understanding and appreciative of her fans. Most celebs/musicians gain a God complex and it ruins them!
She is dumb as hell and talks not well at all. She just has good PR and thats what makes it work. Let her take that shitty tacky weave off and those tacky outfits and those all the same looking videos please
+Genki Dama This would come from someone with no videos, and photo. hmm. funny.
Nickyelunico YOU MEANS A DEMON SHE EVER ADMITS IT
Nickyelunico ON HOLD UP
I appreciate how reflective Beyonce is in terms of sharing her process and experiences as an artist. It make it her records a lot more personal.
BEYONCÉ is by far the greatest album of this generation. A seamless piece of art.
and now she sets the bar even high with Lemonade
Shitty music
Genki Dama Damn, how obsessed are you?
Genki Dama awww ur a hater, sucks for u
4 years later this comment is still true
This BEYONCÉ will forever be iconic. Such a game changer in the music industry from the way she release the album.

She is such a Visionary.

This album has made a few things clear to me. Beyoncé is an artist, Beyoncé is amazing, and Beyoncé is the world's most attractive woman. God DAMN those videos...
Its called make up and entertainment plus sex sells.

this woman is 10 times ahead of everyone else. bam! she is smart. love this! as a poet,I know what she means when she says she sees music. I see music and lyrics as well.....and that is a wonderful thing.
Joey Wisdom ummmm? I don’t think she’s ahead of everyone else. She basically took a page out of Gaga’s book what’s she’s been doing for years.
AGREE JOEY WISDOM!! She is in her own lane! #BeyChellaSecuredIt
Mike Facenda Gaga made visual albums? y’all really be talking out y’all asses nowadays.
@@michaelfacenda4385 Bitch, She made Gaga bigger sit down.

When this dropped the world was shook. Nobody could believe she had done an entire album and visuals yet not one thing leaked! Not one person that worked with her spoke about it. This shows how highly respected she is.
Beyonce is a legend for this. New album with 14 songs and every song has a music video?! INSANE.
BEYONCÉ was the most genius move she has ever done. Brilliant piece of art. People may not have recognized this enough but it sure made an impact to those who did. Admit it or not, no one in the industry today is capable of what she's doing. When she brought Lemonade out, for me, it didn't outdo this album, but it continued to show her capabilities.
i agree too. the magnitude and quality of the self titled visual album still exceeds lemonade. people seem to remember the lemonade era more cause of the scandal and subliminal messages (dont get me wrong) lemonade is a great acclaimed work but BEYONCE is a masterpiece that cant be touched especially when she performed the album tracks at the VMAs 2014. most memorable performance for me 👍🏾
It makes me so happy that Bey always talks about MJ's impact on her life and as a tremendous musical inspiration.
There will never be another like Michael. The world needs that kind of escapism and extraordinary talent that MJ had back in music culture.
Congratulations Beyoncé on receiving the Michael Jackson MTV Video Vanguard Award, the only artist in this generation that is worthy of holding a trophy with Michael's name on it.
I know he will be looking down from heaven smiling.
The two greatest Musical Icons - Michael Jackson and Beyoncé, long live the King and Queen
Funny thing is, I am reading this on his birthday. The King of Pop lives on!
Ashlee Saldana no, she will never be on his level, she wishes she could be though..
Nobody will ever be on MJ level I think that was the point of their post. Reading comprehension is a lost art.
Beyoncé is right next to MJ.
Alexis Licea never. even beyonce knows
she's perfection , love her

My favorite Artist. She and my son gives me reasons to keep pushing towards my success

I feel humble at this point, I remember i came back to the hotel, in a kinda weird day. I mean I don't know why I'm writing this, but anyway, i was kinda sad and shocked at the same time. And i open you know Facebook and saw "BEYONCÉ" in pink and i didn't feel to anxious about it, i kept scrolling and I literally didn't understand what was going on, so i open Twitter and realize what she did. I ran to the store it was around of 12 pm, and bought a damn iTunes Card and bought it, damn, it was crazy. Made my day, all these colors, songs everything about this album was awesome, songs, ideas, hair cuts. I went to Mrs. Carter Word Tour and literally saw the same hair cut in "Blue". Thank you Beyoncé, you're such an inspiration for me.
This was LITERALLY the best album ever made in this generation. Queen B. I can't wait to see what else she has in store for us
her voice is so deep but she's so beautiful
she sounds like t-boz from tlc :) when shes not singing
Keyana Prescott Ha ha ha so true, her voice does favour T-Boz!
i like her voice deep
Texas baby
it's been 2 years?! I still listen to this album EVERYDAY! 💛
I see a lot of humanity inside her. I can see art in every single thing she does or talk about. I love her as a singer, but I also really love her as a human being. Oh my, she's so special!
Some of the visuals in these music videos is breathtaking.
Self-Titled was such an era. I’m so nostalgic right now. 😭
HAPPY 2-YEAR ANNIVERSARY SELF-TITLED, beyhive, and our queen, BEYONCE!
Take all the time you need on B6, Bey, your fans know the excellence you are capable, no proof is more evident than the nuclear bomb that occurred on December 13, 2013!
amen to that.
+solarge knowles pass me the bucket. PMSL
LEMONADE IS OUT YAASS
Atom bomb? Omg where

she sounds so different in this album, like she is not even trying, not in a lazy way, but as if she is just expressing what is inside her, not what she wants others to see or feel.
yeah that's what was so great about it :D
greatest female artist of all times!!!!
A artist, a living legend, a black beauty, an inspiration. QUEEN B 👑👑👑👑👑👑👑👑
That's why she's the queen , sorry for your faves but ...
Queen of lies. Shes a hypocrite pretty hurst but photoshop your pics. Lame. Shes an artist but not an iconic one. Only queen to her fans
BLABLAMANMASTER wow someone is a hater
BLABLAMANMASTER I don't know where your from but on this planet EVERYONE LOVE BEYONE
Lol Girl But do u Love Her
@@jaysonswain6105 Boy
this groundbreaking album just turned 8 and it's impact on music is still undefeated. thank you beyoncé for sharing your art to us and for continuing to be the standard of excellence.
This is why you're beyonce. You just take the whole music industry to another level and to you, music isn't about making money or getting your single most played on the radio. To you i feel like it's about passion. Like a world where all your personal thoughts and feelings are connected to the songs you write and produce. You have such an old soul and im honestly glad that we still have you. Because in this industry there's hardly anyone left like you who give the songs, and videos a meaning. God bless you beyonce. And i will truly be a huge fan of you forever.
I hope B7 album is like this
I remember the day this album came out. I found out a couple of hours after it’s release while I was at work, raced home grabbed my laptop and bought it straight away. I was by myself, sat right on the couch and just listened and watched. Can still remember wearing my red converse shoes while listening (don’t know why that sticks out) but I guess that just shows how much listening to this album the first time was for me... an experience I’ll never forget.
Nobody understands how much I love Beyonce. She is my Idol and I adore her soo much. And I love every last one of her albums but this album would have to be my favorite. I love all the songs and all the videos. She's work so hard to be where she is. She is the Queen Bey👑❤
The most iconic album release ever omg you started a modern day digital phenomenon also this visual album is so beautiful and amazing I love you so much Beyoncé thank you for creating such exciting experiences as a fan in forever grateful and love you so much 💜💜💜💜💜💜💜💜💜💜💜💜
"YONCÉ" goes HARRRD!!!
Beyoncé you are the most hard working singer in history. You deserve more than award. Keep inspiring us =)
BEYONCÉ is ONE OF THE BEST ALBUMS I HAVE EVER HAD IN MY LIFE!!! Especially this VISUAL ALBUM!!!
Guys, go watch the other videos, this is only part 1. In the others she gives credit where credit is due and talks about the team and the process..
SHE IS A GENIUS
SHE IS THE MOMENT
SHE IS BEYONCE
I just love beyonce's voice, the way she laugh, the way she acts its soooo natural. I love her so much! Im in love with her. Such an amazing person.
I remember when beyonce dropped this album. I literally stayed in my dorm room for 2 days just watching listening over and over
I love the nostalgia she has
She is the Queen hate it or love but admit it!!!
5 years later and this album is still amazing. A timeless masterpiece
I only wish I really heard this album fully when it first came out and cherish its secret release, the visual story start to finish, etc. I’m glad I’ve listened to this since but in the time it was released it would’ve made it phenomenal for me. The lyricism, treble, vocals, choreography, story telling 🙌🏾🙏🏾💕
I love the fact that she had this vision that totally goes against everything that's currently being done in pop music but she actually implemented it and fuckin SLAYED everyone! Like not only did it sell more in 3 days that almost any album this year did in a week, but she changed the whole game. She did what Kanye (and Jay) were trying to do this summer but she did it bigger and better. You know everyone's going to be trying the same strategy with their next release. Prepare for a year of surprise album drops.
Queen Beyonce no One will top you. This Album changed the game forever. Adele might sold 3 mil in the first week but its just because of the hype... Your album is Legendary and it will be Marked in the History as the greatest album in the world..
GOD BLESS UR SOUL FOR TELLING D TRUTH. ADELE'S ALBUM ISN'T THAT GREAT THOUGH. BUT OUR HONEYBEY IS.LEGEND HAS D BEST ALBUMS OF ALL TIMES AND BEST VIDEOS OF ALL TIMES. HER VOCALS ARE OUT OF OUR PLANET.
+Yoncé Don't disagree this album changed the game right there. But you can't compare Adele and Bey they do different things entirely. 25 may have been hyped because of Hello, but you've got to remember that her last album won her all 6 Grammys that she was nominated for, because her album ALSO changed the game for being something that the industry has lacked for a long time, good vocalists. Not to say that Bey isn't equally as talented, but there's been a long period of auto-tuned teen pop shit. Bey is all round, she's got the visuals and the vocal talent, and Adele has her own thing, standing in front of the mic and singing. Besides, in Bey's album 4 one of her influences was Adele, and they respect each other as artists. Plus don't forget the hype from 'Formation'
+Martha Kajwang' Adele isn't a vocalist. She's just a singer. Beyonce and many others are vocalists. Adele is great though. 21 was legendary
Love this cd. It is all that and shares so much of the woman you have become!
The album has sold over 200,000 copies in the few hours it's been released, making this Beyonce's fifth consecutive number one album.
Beyonce is extraordinarily timeless
should've won album of the year at the grammys
"I wanted people to hear things differently and have a different first impression" MISSION ACCOMPLISHED! I couldn't skim through and pic out what I liked most and just keep those on repeat until someone makes me listen to something else. I had to listen to the whole thing, MULTIPLE TIMES lol
little does she know.... one of the most important and well-done albums EVER
Beyoncé is an amazing, wonderful, inspiring artist! Her messages of loving yourself for who you are and being flawless can extend to anyone of any race, religious, gender or orientation in life! So much beauty and power in this album!
i love rewatching these...
I actually adore Beyonce, this is what has been missing these days, the passion, and meaning, and pure art behind music (mostly pop music, im not saying all music is like that). BUT She recognized this and changed it. Thank you B
I love this idea of a visual album. I love it when artists do videos and if I like the artist I want every song in video. THIS does that. Videos help to GET an artist & feel connected. I love her ideas; bringing back the music as immersive, entire album drops and visuals.
She makes me so proud ❤
+Aya Jab you are crazy....
+hrabmv Thank you! 😊
:)
+hrabmv 😊 🌈
Everytime I listen to this woman speak, I begin to gain more and more respect for her
ICONIC
You can tell she worked hard on this Album. Haven't loved any of her albums this much since Dangerously in Love. This album is the business
RESPECT!
shes such an icon and rolemodel & the most beautiful woman .
The influence she has is incredible. Nobody can deny that. I just hope that people will not get so caught up in her surreal image b/c she is a human, mortal, and accountable just like all of us. I def. admire her relentless work ethic. It's part of that Virgo nature (we tend to be perfectionists and will work tirelessly until satisfied).
GENIUS!!!!! never been a Beyonce fan til now! this album is absolutely BRILLIANT and so are the songs! HAUNTED is probably my favorite right now, but every single track that I've heard has been INCREDIBLE!! this woman is a true artist!! WOW!!
Beyonce you have brought back the word ART to the word ARTIST! I can't eve begin to describe how much I love this woman!!!
HAPPY BIRTHDAY SELF TITLED
THIS ICONIC/LEGENDARY ALBUM
ITS BEEN 5 YEARS !
This is the best album she have done for her whole carrer. This was the best album I've heard so far. 👍👍
This is my favourite album of all time.
I am so glad you brought back that feeling of getting an album and tearing it open and everyone sit around and listen to each song to see what will be your favorite. Mine is my favorite TODAY!
So love this women forever
Happy 2nd Birthday, Self Titled. 😘❤️🎊🎈🎉
funny how this was almost a decade ago and what she said was so relevant and true yet nothing has changed today in fact the music industry and people's consumption for it got worse as tiktok came in and the gap between the artists and fans grew even bigger
She looks so secured. It's awesome to see what she has accomplished and how much love and effort she puts into her work, that she doesn't do it just for money. She looks like a great mom and great wife. And Blue Ivy... OMG she is just a very cute baby.
It'll be interesting to see how the other artist in the music industry respond in 2014. I don't want to make it a competition, but this won't be forgotten. Their albums will exist in the Post-Beyonce Visual Album era. They're gonna need to step it up.
I wouldn't even be mad if other artists put out a visual album with a video for each song. Listening to a song for the first time while watching the video for the first time at the same time was a new, interesting, and amazing experience. I wanna do that with all my music now.
Tell them Beyoncé! Ur a year older then me we grew up in the same era and I get it! Music is artistry beautiful, it was very beautiful in our era. I love what your doing because music needs to be revived. What we hear now is sometimes just noise with no meanings. Real artist see what you see and share there versions in the form of beautiful words! Looking forward to this experience with your album!
Beyonce, I've never ever been committed fan to you or to the pop genre. This album is incredible and an incredible idea. If you keep on playing with these multi-sensory ideas and keep pushing your artwork, I can promise you have gained a new fan for life. Who isn't just attached to a few catchy tunes but enjoys your content over all.
hear hear
I LOVE BEYONCÉ SO MUCH
And this is why We love Beyonce! She gives us her best every time and we can feel her passion for what she does in her music! Bey bout dat life and get the album!!!!
Beyonce is the best
this is one of the most original ideas i heard lately love it !!!
I lOVE BEYONCE! Probabably one of the last genuine artist who actually cares about the art of making music!!! ugh Im in love!!!
She is the full package. Got nothing but love and admiration for this amazing woman. No words to describe this, just love. God bless you and your family B! Keep doing this, keep going.
I love you bey, your such an inspiration!!
I absolutely LOVE Beyonce's new album! JUST AMAZING! I feel so connected to her life just as she explained in this video!
I love her. I love when she makes te video for all her songs.
the whole package... my vision of perfection! The real QUEEN!
Jay-Z can be proud of himself having his wife Beyoncé :)
Both are a great couple
At the end of the day Beyonce is getting you to talk about her. Good/bad, you're giving her life. If you don't like what she is doing & where she is at this point and time in her life, you don't have to listen or watch her being the best she can be. Everybody won't be pleased but, she's doing the darn thing. Hate it or love it, she reigns & some people can't deal with somebody being great at what they do. Beyonce, continue to sell out venues, albums, and all the other stuff you have going on. Oops, here's a little something extra for the haters. THIS ALBUM IS ALREADY PLATINUM!!!!!! #SUCCESSFUL
DITTO!
2024 and the memories of this os so magical when we get so crazy on Twitter oh man that moment it will be forever a treasure for us her fans 😊
Bey is giving me everything that I ever needed from her!
Way to go B! You are a game changer!
Congratulations indeed, this is a truly attempt of pushing the boundaries of pop industry away. So far it looks like the most innovative and powerful concept project since (being unbiased n fair) the Fame Monster. From now on, just time will tell.
This album is ART, like at her tour it was just mesmerising to watch/hear, it's really something else, she raises the bar everytine but BEYONCÉ is just incredible! I was so shocked when it came out, well done Bey x
I agree so much with Beyoncé, there's so much hype about singles n not enough time listening to an album.
This had me up at 1:52am. 😭❤️
Smart.
Words spoken from a true poet,, thats what I love about B,, her mind inbraces her spirit and then her spirtit to her heart .. today I am reminded that all must be as one for one to be all.
A legend. Beyoncé is the best ♡
