Formation

The song "Formation" by Beyonce has so much meaning behind it, which leads to lots of criticism both good and bad.  When i first saw the music video "Formation" i first took it as another song of hers that had the potential to become a hit because the lyrics sounded pretty catchy even though i have never paid much attention to what the lyrics themselves were saying.  When i read the lyrics  i started to look at it as just another song of Beyonce who defines her, who she is and how much of power she carries with her, which is not much different from any other song of hers.  Beyonce is an artisrt who have always made songs that have both a lot of power and meaning behind it.  However i believe what made so many people people look at the song in  a wrong g way is not anything about the song in specific: people took the song to their own personal ways.  Some will say she used the song to attack the police when all she actually did was bring awareness to a problem that this society is facing.  The only possible thing that might not be so right about her music video is how she mentioned the victims from the Hurricane Katrina, because it involved so much.  the Super Bowl performance was most likely what really got so many bad criticism because a lot of people looked at it as her advertising her music and many did think that she was sending negative messages.  since Beyonce herself did not say much about her music video or her performance on Super Bowl people will just keep assuming things because they do not have any concrete answer however me personally do believe her song was not meant to attack any part in specific matter fact i ma one of those that sees it as just another artist trying to bring attention to a situation like J Cole did, Kendrick Lamar and much more others did.
