What an exhausting weekend! Before we get into Jay-Z and Beyonce Carter’s EVERYTHING IS LOVE Album Credits, I want to let you guys know how my weekend has gone thus far.
Yesterday I enjoyed albums. waited on an album and watched World Cup games in between. Today I woke up at 7 am to watch all 4 matches, In between, I hosted our online showcase. I finally laid down around 6 pm and 30 minutes later my son woke me up to buy a game on his tablet. I check my twitter TL and this happened.
And I was all like…
Wait, what? Jay and Bey? New album? It’s Saturday evening! There are no rules.
The credits are insane. Just read them and appreciate greatness. There are string sections and horn sections and a Pharell. There’s Boi-1da, Ty Dolla, Illmind, Quavo, Offset, James Fauntleroy, Cool and Dre and so many more dope contributors. Big shout to the engineers as well. You know Guru was behind the board. The immaculate mixes are courtesy of legendary engineers Stuart White, Tony Maserati, Young Guru, Chris Godbey, Leslie Brathwaite and our guy Colin Leonard of Sing Mastering on the mastering, who has held us down at mixing panels during Beat Camp and A3C.
Oh, and there are visuals too. Amazingly stunning visuals they somehow managed to do while on TOUR in Europe. I had just canceled my Tidal subscription before the trial ended, but I need to re-up. The experience has been too dope. Check out the video for APESHIT, filmed in the LOUVRE!!! Then check the credits.
