16 CARRIAGES & TEXAS HOLD EM BEYONCE REACT (RAW)

you should listen to daddy lessons too

I interpreted red cup kisses as red solo cups. And kisses being either drunk kisses or a metaphor for cheersing cups.

So I have a theory about 16 CARRIAGES. My theory is 16 CARRIAGES in my mind I think of tour buses like an entire tour bus fleet that an artist has for themselves, their dancers the band when they’re out on the road touring. That makes sense for me when she’s talking about The carriages driving away with her fears away because she has to let go of her fears to accomplish her dreams, and by the carriages driving away, if she had held onto that fear, she would’ve inadvertently, watched her dreams be carried away. Also, Beyonce‘s dad cheated on Beyonce‘s mom multiple times throughout their marriage and in the mid 2000s, she left him after he had two children by two different women, while still married to her. it wasn’t too long after Beyonce removed him from being her manager.

So 16 carriages is just a metaphors for a ride/journey of life, it's inspired by Junior Parkers Mystery Train(which was sampled). As for the context of the song, she is speaking on her experience going from Destiny Child to where she was when she wrote this song(38 years old). As the lyrics show she left home at 15 to pursue her career which required a lot of hard work, little money at times and a lot of responsibility. Once she made the choice to be an entertainer, she lost some of the innocence because now she had to provide for her family which was a major sacrifice. As the song continues she explains how even at 38 she's still overworked, overwhelmed and missing so much just to create this art and to do this thing that she loves. This song hits hard for anyone who has ever felt that pressure to take care of their family or being the first. As for her father, he did cheat and had 2 other children while still married to Tina. They've divorced and Beyoncé has been able to repair her relationship with her father after the strain of him being her manager put on it. I hope this adds a bit of context but watching Life is But a Dream or her Year of 4 doc would help too. I know it's hard to learn 25+ years of backstory but great reaction🤣

I think the 16 carriages represent the age when she became famous. Destiny's child became popular around the late 90s when she was around 16-17. She had to put her dreams to the side to take care of her family, "I saw mama praying, I saw daddy grind." Her dad did cheat on her mom. If you listen to the song "Daddy lessons"on her lemonade album, she briefly talks about it.

I feel the same as you with 16 carriages but I loved Texas hold em

Samira

I truly feel watching the documentaries as ‘life is but a dream’ will give a good insight to Beyoncé the human being and not Beyoncé the entertainer. It would also give you a better perspective of what goes into her process of creating and thereby get a better understanding of the meaning behind her music and her as a person. I would definitely recommend you react to life is but a dream before you react to the renaissance film/documentary. Also hope you’ll get to react to ‘Cadillac records’ (movie where Beyoncé portrays Etta James) If you can tell I’m always sooo excited when you react to Beyoncé. You’re so full of life and authentic in your reactions 🥰

I LOOOVE Texas Hold ‘Em too!!!

m

16 carriages is about b, she is reflecting on her life stepping into the spotlight from an early age, also yes beyonce's dad cheated on her mom , As of 2011 they divorced . Also Beyonce wrote these songs sometimes in 2019 and is just now releasing so 16 could also represent time or years for something at that point in her life. 16 carriage is my fav, (i dont really like country but for b I gave it a chance) even though it wasnt as country i loved it cause it was CUNTry (like daddy lessons lol) anyways I like texas hold em too surprisngly, like i need to do a hoedown to it or something 😂😂

16 Carriages is one of the best songs she's ever made imo. I'd encourage you to listen to it without stoping. It's definitely Country in the sense that she's really story telling and that's the premise of a lot of the genre. It's not a stereotypical country song, but not everything has to be on the nose. "16 carriages" to me represents her innocence. She gave up her dream of a normal happy life to provide for her family in some ways. Her dad left his job to manage her career and a lot was riding on her success and that's payed a toll on her life as a whole, wether it being constant work, missing her kids, or even driving a wedge between her parents marriage. That's why at the end she talks about if it's the last thing she does she will be remembered and leave a legacy behind. She doesn't want all of that sacrifice to have been for nothing.

mary-anne

Yes, this three-act project is about Beyoncé reclaiming music that originated from black people! And you were right about all the songs from the teaser being by black artists. I found a quote on Twitter talking about it: “beyoncé went all the way back to the 1920s for the act ii teaser with “laughing yodel” by charles anderson, one of the earliest pioneers of the blues and a female impersonator from alabama. it also features “grinnin’ in your face” by son house and “maybellene” by chuck berry”

mary-anne

Also Beyoncé was born and raised in Houston, Texas so this all comes very naturally to her lol! She has a Southern, country accent that you can hear when she talks sometimes

Love both songs so much. Very different but very Beyoncé. This double single reminds me of Single Ladies / If I Were a Boy. The viral dance and the emotional ballad.

Hannah

Texas Hold'em is a bop, but 16 carriages such touches something in me. Her stacked "ahhh"'s and the last verse at the end make me so emotional. I think her being so vulnerable just adds something to her music to me (one of the reasons Lemonade is my favourite album). I'm Beyhive through and through, but I also love country music, and I find this song so beautiful. I think seeing it live will make me cry.

Damian Goins

Interesting fact. The banjo is originally an African instrument.

JLeo

And yeah!! Beyoncé's dad cheated on her mom and had kids with other woman and also was stealing money from Beyonce for years while he was her manager. When she found out, she had to split away from him and she started her own record label. 🔥🔥 who run the world?

JLeo

4 * 4 is 16. I don't think 16 carriages is a coincidence we all know she loves that number for many reasons. It has to represent something for her. Audrey do you remember in your reaction of the concert in Roseland? She explained all the symbolism behind the number 4? 😊❤️

Khy

Idk how I just realized you are from Arkansas I am too

16 Carriage it says about her. her family went through financial hardship. her father became her manager so basically the family depended on her success as an artist at an early and she was around 16 when she was in Destiny's Child. She had to work so hard through her career while watching her family tear apart. The line "Mama praying" is a reference to her religious life and "daddy lying" can reference her dad cheating on her mom and also him allegedly stealing funds from her while he was her mananger. I also feel through the song that she's working hard and she is just tired, she just wants her family, create art, raise her kids, find peace in herself and leave a good legacy for her family. This one make me emotional 😢❤️

Zach Davis

I def understood that 16 carriages is admit her growing up in the business and her history with her father but I kinda also got the feeling it could’ve been used for black history in general with the story. I might be thinking too much into it. But I’m a white gut who prob shouldn’t speak on that…

If you ever watch Cadillac Records it shows a lot about how Rock 'n Roll came about from the influences of black southern artists like Chuck Berry and Muddy Waters. The Rolling Stones named themselves after one of Muddy Waters' songs. Even Elvis Presley's Hound Dog song was originally sung by a black woman (Big Mama Thornton). Rock 'n roll was originally just a sort of mix between jazz, country, blues, etc. It eventually transformed into the "rock" sound we know today.

Alex Hanna

It took me a bit to understand 16 carriages too! Basically 16 carriages represent 16 years of her life and all of the sacrifices she’d had to make to create a legacy and a family at the same time. So it’s super cool the lines change between ‘dreams’ and ‘fears’ because each carriage (or year) contains both dreams and fears - she’s working so hard to create art and love and there’s a tension with this, which is the same tension she creates musically! I would def give this a few more listens because it’s become one of my favorite Beyonce songs of all time :)

Tina Turner and Betty Davis are the First Ladies of rock and roll lol rock comes from black american blues and funk music!

Alex

- A lot of the early breakout Rock & Roll artists and bands talk about how they were recreating sounds from black artists. It mostly comes from blues, gospel and jazz music and artists. Black artists like Little Richard, Chuck Berry, Sister Rosetta Tharpe & Big Mama Thornton are the foundation of Rock & Roll. A lot of people call Sister Rosetta Tharpe the godmother of rock & roll and credit her with being the origin of the genre. - Also Beyonce grew up in Houston and her family went to the rodeo often in her childhood. When she was in Destiny's Child they actually started out performing at a lot of rodeos. She is naturally very country but over the years has received a lot of hate and ridicule over her country accent. People would even use her accent as a reason to say she seemed unintelligent. I think over time she tried to mask her accent but you hear it a lot in her early interviews. I'm glad she now feels more comfortable exploring her country origins because it has always been a big part of her life.

Red Cups Kisses = Red Solo Cup Cheers!

16 carriages immediately resonated with me, and other that had to grow up to fast. At 16 she had to give up her childhood to make her parent's sacrifices worth it. Dreams could be all the normal things she didnt get to experience. Fears can be her gaining her confidence in her career and longevity.

Valencia

There’s another version of 16 carriages that someone made with the melody of Alicia Keys’ Never see me Again and it sounds way better but more R&b! I like that one better. I love Texas Hold ‘em it’s fun.

I specifically purchased Panteon to hear your reaction to "16 Carriages". This song moves me. It's like the "crashes" in the song force you to sit up and pay attention. Her vocals, the musical swell through the song, her heartbreaking lyrics and the change in cadence make this a masterpiece 💗💗. "38 Summers and I'm not in my bed"... can you imagine never being home? She's 42. This was written. 4 years ago and is just being released now. The vulnerability in her voice... I had never thought about Beyonce missing her childhood. I was too busy poppin to her music. She was working hard at this way before age 16, which is kind of sad to me.

Taryne Warren

Also she employs a full staff of people, so some of the pressure to keep going is still there, in addition to trying to solidify her legacy.

Bey Brown

Her sister, Solange was a main writer on 16 carriages and it is about Beyonce. 16 is when she became the one to take care of everyone (Record deal, hit singles). She became the brand. Before then, her parents sacrificed everything for her dreams. They went from living pretty well off to an apartment because her dad quit his job to become her manager.
