breakdown of beyonce’s AMERIICAN REQUIEM

#cowboycarter #beyoncé x as you can see, this was from a tiktok that i created, something called me to share it on this platform especially since it is a longer video. as of late, i have been creating content that surrounds the singer and her art—out of inspiration and to gain understanding of her storytelling while listening to COWBOY CARTER, i felt the ancestors sing, especially in this song. i wrote a blog post saying how this album was going to be an love letter to the unsung, so beautiful to see that come into fruition. i’ll be linking my sources and link to my blog post as well as my tiktok if you want to join in on more conversations 💜 ● act ii: love letters to the unsung: https://salondamarie.substack.com/p/a... 〰️ Sources: LIBARY OF CONGRESS, AFRICIAN AMERICAN SPIRITUALS: https://www.loc.gov/item/ihas.200197495/ The Negro Spiritual: From Cotton Field to Concert Hall: https://spirituals-database.com/the-n... 〰️ LINK TO LISTEN TO AMERIICAN REQUIEM AND COWBOY CARTER SPOTIFY: https://open.spotify.com/album/6BzxX6...
