Beyonce Is Life is a beautifully illustrated guide that explores and celebrates the singer and her music. All hail the queen! From her first solo at St. John's United Methodist Church to becoming a part of Destiny's Child, shaping the R&B scene, and becoming a pop icon, Beyonce has taken the world by storm. Gathering her incredible life story, music, and fan culture all in one place, Beyonce Is Life is the reference you need. Get to know her musical family, her talented friends who have helped launch her career, her husband and children who are her inspiration, and the artists who have helped shape her vision. Beyonce Is Life takes it a step further and sheds light on the deep and rich symbolism always present in her music and videos, for example, her spiritual connection with Oshun, the Yoruba goddess of water, fertility, love, and purity, whom she uses as an alter ego with nods to the deity through water symbolism and the color yellow, along with many more Easter eggs and facts. Did you know that Beyonce was supposed to star in the movie A Star Is Born, instead of Lada Gaga? Or that she became the first female artist to have the No. 1 album (Dangerously in Love) and the No. 1 single (Crazy in Love) in the US and the UK at the same time? A comprehensive guide, this book includes: A full discography, including commentary on cover art, history, and the inside scoop on her new 2024 album. A Bey-tionary (dictionary) of terminology, including definitions for terms Beyonce has personally coined, from put a ring on it to Becky with the good hair. The A-Bey-Cs of Beyonce, from her most impressive A cappella moments to the zodiac signs found in her music. Symbols and Easter eggs throughout Beyonce's music, from a crystal spider web to the Tiffany Diamond. An exploration of Bey's obsession with the zodiac, including sexy Scorpios, fun Libras, and flirtatious Aries. How Jay-Z contributed to her modern sound. Bey's lasting impact on pop culture, feminism, economics, art, film, and music. Her collection of fine art that influences her music and videos. Bey's ongoing work to help education initiatives, disaster relief efforts, COVID-19 relief work, and Black-owned small business. So, grab your best glitter corset and let biographer Kathleen Perricone take you on a journey to everything you need to know to be part of the Beyhive!
