The Carters – Everything Is Love
Power couple, Jay-Z and Beyoncé in a surprise move on the second week of their On the Run II Tour, dropped their long awaited joint album titled “Everything Is Love”, and you just know what to expect from this massive work.
Jay-Z and Beyoncé Carter, after several years of being at the top of the entertainment scene in America, that sees Jay Z go from a corner hustler to a corporate CEO and Beyoncé from a perfectly manicured pop star to one of the most powerful women on the planet. Yet over the years of success and fame, they have closely guarded the particulars of their private lives for years.
However, with the release of “Everything Is Love”, we are granted a glimpse into the lives of The Carters as the whole body of work realizes the power in learning from failings, and doubles down on the status symbols, generational wealth, and sustainability.
And according to Pitchfork, the album has been described as “a testament to how a complicated love survived through self-reflection, compromise, and ruthless honesty. The quintessential power couple has reemerged to stunt on everyone—haters, mistresses, America itself—while serving up a spectacle of romance and opulence like make-up sex on a bed of money. The Carters’ final episode of a presumed trilogy packages truth in a way that makes it more captivating than any lie or tabloid fodder.”
The album features the tracks:
- Summer
- 713
- Apeshit
- Nice
- Boss
- Heard About Us
- Black Effect
- LoveHappy
- Friends
The duo self-produced the album with a variety of collaborators, including Cool & Dre, Boi-1da and Pharrell Williams.
While the album also featured its lead single, “Apeshit”, it also features a non-album promotional bonus track dubbed “Salud!”.
