What is Lemonade about?

The second "visual album" (a collection of short films) by Beyoncé, this time around she takes a piercing look at racial issues and feminist concepts through a sexualized, satirical, and solemn tone.

Lemonade is a 2016 musical film and visual album by American singer Beyoncé, serving as the visual companion to her 2016 album of the same name. Beyoncé also served as a director and executive producer on the film. It premiered on HBO on April 23, 2016, and was released the same day with the album on CD/DVD, Tidal, and the iTunes Store.
