Beyonce ‘Be Alive’ Fan Review: ‘King Richard’s original track ‘flopped already’

Beyonce rarely drops music these days but when she does the Queen Bey makes sure it makes noise everywhere possible. Even though Taylor Swift’s re-recorded album ‘Red’ was all over the Internet, the Queen of R&B still managed to grab one of the top spots on the trending list. The ‘Halo’ hitmaker’s latest release is called ‘Be Alive’ which is an original track for the motion picture ‘King Richard’ starring Will Smith in the lead.

The 40-year-old songstress’ latest project is the biggest after she dropped the song ‘Black Parade’ and the visual album ‘Black Is King’, which featured music from 2019’s ‘The Lion King: The Gift’. Speaking of new Friday releases, we also saw DaBaby making a comeback after his homophobic rant controversy. The rapper dropped a brand new album called ‘BOMBJS’. Juice WRLD’s new single ‘Already Dead’ from his second posthumous album ‘Fighting Demons’ and Silk Sonic’s debut joint effort titled ‘An Evening in Paris’ too got the attention of music lovers.

Beyonce’s latest single was first previewed during the trailer release of ‘King Richard’. The track features the same drum-heavy rhythms like her earlier track ‘Freedom’ from her 2019 ‘Lemonade’. The renowned singer-songwriter uses her powerful vocals to good effect as she harmonizes with high notes. Beyonce penned her latest single with an artist called Dixson. ‘Be Alive’ will be featured during the closing credits of the song. A lot of social media users felt that the song previewed in the trailer was much better as compared to the full-length one.

Speaking of lyrics, Beyonce on ‘Be Alive’ shares political messages about feminism and Black life – among the themes explored in the film. In the intro, she croons, “It feels so good to be alive/Got all my family by my side/Couldn’t wipe this black off if I tried/ That’s why I lift my head with pride.” She then quickly slips into the first verse serenading her fans with lyrics like, “I got a million miles on me/ They want to see how far I go/ The path was never paved with gold (Gold)/ We worked and built this on our own (Own).” – Source
