Beyoncé, who pioneered the modern music visual, wants people to pay more attention to the music instead of the visual
Beyoncé, who pioneered the modern music visual, wants people to pay more attention to the music instead of the visualHere’s Bey’s explanation for foregoing the music video: “
I thought it was important that during a time where all we see is visuals, that the world can focus on the voice. The music is so rich in history and instrumentation. It takes months to digest, research, and understand. The music needed space to breathe on its own.” She told, “Sometimes a visual can be a distraction from the quality of the voice and the music. The years of hard work and detail put into an album that takes over four years! The music is enough.
That’s fair enough, because she’s got nothing left to prove, and all the effort to achieve perfection and reinvention time and again must be exhausting. But Beyoncé toldthat the work isn’t a burden—in fact, the work is liberating. “It is fame that can at times feel like prison,” she said. “So, when you don’t see me on red carpets, and when I disappear until I have art to share, that’s why.
Maybe working “smarter” means delegating effort where possible, not necessarily investing in creating an entire new visual language when she’s got other things to do . Beyoncé spoke about evolving as an artist as she gets older, noting tothat “My knee injury was an opportunity to transition into a new animal.” She explained, “I retired from the formula of the pop star a very long time ago.
