The lucky number is 3,105. That’s the amount of words packed into the credits for Beyoncé’s latest industry-shaking album, Lemonade.
As was the case with her 2013 album, which coined the phrase “pull a Beyoncé,” the long-anticipated release arrived as a surprise on Tidal last night (April 23), supplied with a stacked list of collaborators, interpolations, samples, and many “contains elements of” credits. Making up the row of featured guests are The Weeknd, Kendrick Lamar, James Blake, and Jack White. Meanwhile, names scattered throughout the eye-straining toil of liner notes are Diplo, Melo-X, Rae Sremmurd’s Swae Lee, Belly, Led Zeppelin, Jon Brion, and Soulja Boy (Yes, Soulja Boy Tell Em! Boy Tell Em!).
All in all, there’s just so much musical history embedded within Beyoncé’s 12-track Lemonade that we couldn’t help but bring to light.
Production
Beyonce recruited an assortment of producers, who all provide different flavors throughout Lemonade. Among the boldface names are Mike WiLL Made It, who worked on “Formation”; Diplo, who appears on “Hold Up” and “All Night”; Mike Dean on “Love Drought”; Just Blaze on “Freedom”; and DannyBoyStyles with Ben Billions on “6 Inch.” Vampire Weekend’s Ezra Koenig and Bey go-to Boots are also involved. Hit-Boy also appears on “Sorry.”
Songwriters
The songwriters on this album have certainly emerged from the breedings ground, as rising stars like Brooklyn songwriter Kevin Garrett, frequent featured singer-songwriter Diana “Wynter” Gordon, and East Flatbush-bred rapper Melo-X appear on the credits. Meanwhile, familiar names like Karen O, Father John Misty, Emile Haynie, Malik Yusef, Jonny Coffer, The-Dream, and Kevin Cossom also make up the list for behind the scenes in-studio duties. Rae Sremmurd’s Swae Lee (born Khalif Brown) also gets a writer credit on “Formation.”
Samples, Interpolations and “Contains Elements Of”
There’s plenty of fascinating choices for the album’s list of samples and interpolations. Among them are Led Zeppelin’s “When the Levee Breaks,” which is featured on “Don’t Hurt Yourself.” Soulja Boy even makes a surprising appearance on the LP, thanks to having a line from his 2009 hit “Turn My Swag On” referenced on “Hold Up.” Burt Bacharach and Hal David’s “Walk On By” is referenced on The Weeknd-assisted song “6 Inch.” OutKast also gets credited on “All Night,” which throws a nod to the famous horn section on 1998’s “Spottieottiedopaliscious.” Alan Lomax, a storied collector of folk music, gets a credit for the song “Freedom,” thanks to its interpolation of two field recordings fro the 1940s and 1950s.
