I love everything about this. The history and archive that this album is keeps me coming back every time. I love these pieces that explain the album! I keep annoying people who talk to me about it because I’m like “and here’s this thing you don’t know about the history and here’s how Bey is using it AND revolutionizing music at the same time!” Nerding out!!
Um, I listened to the podcast twice, because I was realized when I was gushing about it that I'd already forgotten some of the good bits (which is all of the bits). I also started making myself a playlist based on all the artists and history referenced.
I just realized this was probably mentioned in the episode (I haven't had the chance to listen to it yet), but I really can't recommend the book enough!

I can’t wait to listen to this. I just bought the vinyl of this album last week and found out it has a different name… “Beyince.”*
I wonder if you’ll cover this in the episode! Again— cannot wait. Thank you!
*not a typo and has a backstory.

Super great ep!!!
If you all like Elamin you should listen to his CBC show "Commotion". It's so good.
IT IS SO GOOD! Elamin is SO GOOD!!!!
Yes to Commotion! Also his memoir, SON OF ELSEWHERE -- it's so beautiful and funny and moving!

This was so good!!
So enjoyable, thanks. I never tire or talking about Beyonce either!
