Netizens Can’t Keep Their Chill Over Beyoncé’s New Music Video for ‘Formation’ | Lifestyle.INQ

OCTOBER 27, 2022

The weekend was far from peaceful because Beyoncé, the original master of the casual drop, released a new single and video called “Formation.”

Though it’s unclear if it heralds yet another album from the Queen B, the song is a solid commentary on the#BlackLivesMatter, tackling the discrimination against black people with lyrics like “I like my baby hair, with baby hair and afros/I like my Negro nose with Jackson Five nostrils,” while referencing scenes of police brutality against people of color.

Amid issues of racially-charged violence and #OscarsSoWhite, netizens reacted quickly to the video including Beyoncé’s sister Solange, model Kendall Jenner, and editors and writers from several media outfits.

Well done, Bey. You practice what you preach as you sang, “Always stay gracious, your best revenge is paper.”
