Beyonce released a new album called “Renaissance”. Avi Goldberger, the foreign music critic of “Walla Tarbut” talked about this with Iris Cole on 103fm, and said: “Beyoncé is like the religion of the day. She has such a large number of fans that whatever she does, they will follow her as if it were the law.” And whoever is anti-Beyoncé is anti-Beyoncé.”
“As an artist, it’s my job to reflect the times”: Beyoncé turns 40 and doesn’t intend to stop
Goldberger also said: “She hasn’t released an album in six years. Why has she been silent all these years? It’s not clear, maybe she didn’t want to cause too much trouble or maybe she wasn’t in that place in life to bring new things, but in any case, she She waited for this time and now she took it out.”
Goldberger commented on what the singer is trying to convey in her new album: “There are a lot of messages of feminism and ‘Black Lives Matter’, and homosexuals and the persecuted, and I think she is actually sharp here. This album is going to be a success, despite the divided opinions about it.”
Later, Goldberger referred to the storm created by the song “Heated”, from the new album, in which the word “spaz” appears, which in England and Australia is considered an offensive word towards people who have cerebral palsy. “It’s not a word that really exists, it’s a slang word,” Goldberger explained, adding: “The assumption they made for these genres is disappearing today and this correction culture is reaching Beyoncé as well.”
Regarding Beyoncé’s status today, Goldberger said: “She broke through in the early 2000s. She was quite a surprise, coming out of the girl group Destiny’s Child, which was a pop group that no one took too seriously, and she emerged as an emerging singer An exception and also inserted a lot of very progressive messages that gave her her status as the important singer she is considered to be today. Like messages of feminism, a lot of politics is hidden between her songs.”
