Jack White has guest appearance on new Beyonce record

Post by bh1644 »

Jack sings on the song Don't Hurt Yourself, and I could be wrong but it sure sounds like he is playing the drums, haven't seen liner notes yet...

It's on Tidal with the rest of the album, so it should be up for a while. And someone found this info on the song credits-- http://genius.com/Beyonce-dont-hurt-yourself-lyrics No breakdown of who plays what instruments, but Jack definitely sings on it, as does Ruby Amanfu.

I want to watch the visual album, but can't tonight (recording something else). But this gives full credits for all songs and lists Patrick Keeler as the drummer on Don't Hurt Yourself-- http://www.stereogum.com/1873272/stream ... nade/mp3s/

Fats and Mark Watrous are on it, too.

Just watched the visual album and... wow. Never expected to say this about a pop star like Beyonce, but that's some impressive work. The music doesn't necessarily appeal to me, but the visuals and spoken bits are very powerful, as is the message she's delivering. I totally understand Jack's excitement about it in Vault chat today.

Before I even read through the comments, this was my initial thought too. It has a very Dead Weatherish feel to it. Really cool to See JW, PK and Ruby together..

I miss Ruby. It's been a long time since she's been around TMR..

I was up until 3 fucking a.m. because of Lemonade. Has anyone else watched the visual album yet? It's going to be stuck in my head for days and I can't stop reading articles about it and the woman who wrote the poetry used for the spoken bits between songs. I really love that Jack was involved with this, even to such a small degree.

Yah! My wife and I watched it last night.
It's stunning. One of the best pieces of art related to music that I have seen in a very long time.

The spoken word parts are other people's poems? Can you link me to more about that Kali?

It's really breath taking. That's the best way that I can describe it.

Jack White on Beyonce's new track - Don't Hurt Yourself

Post by RedStep »

Good song, sounds like he helped with the production as well as some vocals. Add this to Danger! High Voltage as his funkiest collaboration.
