I thought she was great. When I was

successful women in the music

are becoming a cliché, Courtney Love, to 'The Standard'.

are not what was listed, Fan, via Instagram.

reportedly called Beyincé, so she
referenced the name in her new work.
Meanwhile, Beyoncé recently talked about how she "wanted to go back to real instruments" on this album.
I didn't want some layers of instruments
like strings, especially guitars, and
organs perfectly in tune. I kept some
songs raw and leaned into folk. , Beyoncé, via statement.
