Beyonce Takes Vocal Flight In Preview Of ABC Special ‘Making The Gift’

Published: Monday 16th Sep 2019 by Sam

Beyonce has long established herself as one of Pop’s most notable perfectionists and she re-affirms why in her upcoming ABC special.

Set to air tonight, ‘Making The Gift’ chronicles Queen Bey’s creative process piecing together her companion compilation for ‘The Lion King’ – which now stands as the 10th highest grossing movie of all-time.

Billed as sonic cinema and featuring African superstars such as Wizkid and Tiwa Savage, the set has been showered with praise by critics and has been touted as a strong Grammy contender.

Ahead of this evening’s intimate look at its creation, check out a preview clip (via GMA) below…

Chills!

    Told yall.
    We dont need to watch this documentary cause we already know how its gonna be.

    Beyonce walking around without makeup

    Beyonce acting like all the concepts are her own ideas

    Shots of her and her kids together playing.

    Beyonce talking about her African roots and African culture

    Beyonce pretending to be directing and producing and mixing and making beats and calling the shots in the studio etc.

    So predictable, that’s why she didnt win any Emmys. Lol

    • gina September 16, 2019

      all of this lmao.

      • Jeans September 16, 2019

        Truth

    • BadBitchB September 16, 2019

      You seem very invested for someone who claims to have NO interest in watching this special. You don’t have watch it at all but don’t be acting messy about it. Lawd. You haters spend so much time hating this woman while she remains unbothered.

    • Danny Bey September 16, 2019

      You sure do know a lot of how she does things for you not to be a fan. Whew.

      • gina September 16, 2019

        you dont have to be a fan to know how predictable this chick is.

    • Winner September 16, 2019

      You know what else is predictable haters in the comment section of this site always hating on Beyonce. She is a perfectionist and I refuse to allow a commentator who would probably faint if they met her try ot make this woman push herself to unsafe regions. She got beauty, the brains, (regardless if she graduated or not she knows how to make money). power and talent. Nothing you can say can take away from this woman’s hustle. WHats predictable are these award shows that try to deny her talent, she has the best album drops and surprises in the game. Kick rocks!!!! let us know how the documentary is because we know you and the other haters will be watching because none of your favs can put on like Bey!!!

      • Shayla Queen September 16, 2019

    • Justme September 16, 2019

      So doing better than her? And if you name ariana or adele you dont know nothing. No one is as versatile as she is. No one.. these girls ain’t singing no more. Beyonce is here to show how it is done

      • Jasmine The Real Princess September 16, 2019

        All you need to do is compare Christina‘s ITS A MANS WORLD Grammy performance to Beyonnaise‘s LISTEN Grammy performance. Same night. One has great vocals, the other sounds thin AF ?‍♂️

      • Justme September 16, 2019

        One was sick on Grammy night and the other one wasn’t. Google is free.. also talk about Christina’s vocals she is doing today. Because they are harsh not thin

      • ??? September 16, 2019

        lmaooo bishhh please, Voicetina can slay that goat yodeling roach on ANY given day mfker lmfaooooo ? ?? ?

      • Paulo September 17, 2019

        Xtina is great but WOW @ anyone saying her James Brown tribute was actually good. That’s one of her worst vocal performances ever. You have no business hating on Beyoncé if you can’t even tell when your fave is doing a good job.

  3. Meme September 16, 2019

    Lmfao I’m screaming. Y’all get chills from anything. That yodeling was nothing special.

    • Danny Bey September 16, 2019

      Can you do it?

      • Meme September 16, 2019

        I’m not a professional singer. She is. Nice try.

      • Haterz Gon‘ Hate September 16, 2019

        So what makes you think you’re in a position to critique if you’re not a journalist in the music field or singer?? Social media makes all these faux confident ho‘s bold behind their keyboards. FOH.

      • Meme September 16, 2019

        Well the fact that I have fu*king ears for starters. You don’t have to agree with my ears.

      • ??? September 16, 2019

        lmaoooooo any goat can lmfaoooooo.

      • Fancy BISH September 16, 2019

        @Meme, I definitely didn’t get chills and my air conditioning is colder than a MF ? I’mma need Nippy vocals to give me chills! ?

      • Winner September 16, 2019

    • King z September 16, 2019

      • gina September 16, 2019

      • Oh plz September 16, 2019

        LMAO

    • Winner September 16, 2019

      Can you do it????

    • I Told You September 16, 2019

      Can your fav do it?

    • Paulo September 17, 2019

      it’s nothing special for Beyonce’s standards. 90% of the industry can’t sound that good clear and steady without studio tricks and that includes Rihanna so why would you even try it?

  4. Clarkson September 16, 2019

    The novelty is wearing off.

    People have started asking ,
    is beyonce really queen?
    If beyonce is queen why is she flopping?

    900 copies in the UK is terrible and disappointing.

    Kendrick Lamar black panther album was African inspired, it had ethnic African beats and this album hit number 1, and had 2 top ten hits, one with sza and the other with the weeknd. Every song was good.

    The gift is disingenuous, the songs sound fake and forced. The collaborations dont flow at all. The songs sound stupid and silly.
    This was the second beyonce album I have deleted after downloading
    The first of everything is love.

    • Oh plz September 16, 2019

      B****, how is it you have all of this time to write all of these damn essays in EVERY SINGLE POST?? Do you write your b******* comments ahead of time and then wait for a relevant article to be posted before cutting and pasting that s***??? Find something more profitable to do with your time asshole. Tricking on the curb side might just be up your alley.

      • Clarkson September 16, 2019

        Unless ur slow, to post a comment on a blog is not rocket science neither does it take more than 15 seconds to compose.

        U must be a slow person.

      • Oh plz September 16, 2019

        To post a 3 sentence comment perhaps takes a few seconds. But you post essays, b****. Proves my point that you have no life and/or no job.

      • Clarkson September 16, 2019

        U are slow and unintelligent with a low IQ that’s why it takes u hours to compose a comment. Let me guess ur a drop out, cause ur type can survive in college.

    • Winner September 16, 2019

      Who’s asking because this is fake news

      • Shayla Queen September 16, 2019

        I done told you wait on your milk and cookies ashy h**! Momma busy

      • Winner September 16, 2019

        An I told you your trash and never address me. and listen no one is your child, but i will change your diaper because we all know you wetted yourself when you saw her name pop up.

      • Shayla Queen September 16, 2019

        *you’re

        Nice try. You are as illiterate as your fave.

  5. And I … Oop! September 16, 2019

    Runs aren’t vocals. Ijs ??‍♂️

    • Clocked you September 16, 2019

      Gworl what? Yes they are. Runs are not easy to do. Have you ever taken vocal lessons? Y’all haters say the dumbest things

    • Winner September 16, 2019

      Yes they are and are u sad because you can’t do it???

  6. Clocked you September 16, 2019

    Yes Ma’Am! Beeetch they about to be In these comments saying she can’t sing and she’s a flop and blah blah but an actual musical ear knows that what she just did in the video isn’t easy vocally. She has technique!
    They’ll be watching every clip of this show. Seething

    • Clarkson September 16, 2019

      She put so much effort into a project that sold 900 copies in the UK, that’s what we call WASTED EFFORT

      That’s the essence of all her documentaries. To trick u into thinking she put so much effort and time and energy into making her albums. But all that effort doesnt yield any hits.

      Talented musicians produce hits. Bruno Mars, Kendrick Lamar, Rihanna, Taylor swift, ariana grande, Camila cabello.

      • Clocked you September 16, 2019

        Sold …in this age of streaming great she only sold 900 copies you’ve been saying that since the album came out is it at 1,000 by now? How many streams? You’re so negative. Smoke and mirrors does not keep someone at the top. If it did we’d have way more internationally famous stars. You just hate to see it. There’s literally nothing you can do but watch her be great lmao. She sold 900 copies blah blah blah oh well! She’s still the queen getting deals and You will deal. Y’all so quick just to bash Beyoncé but disrespect the other artist on the album at the same time.

      • Winner September 16, 2019

        lol how can we take you seriously when u have culture vulture Bruno on your list lol and no of them that you named including Rihanna can out sing and perform Beyonce….please leave lol

      • Winner September 16, 2019

        This is a lie Beyonce has never sold only 900 copes lol lol who are these losers lol

      • ??? September 16, 2019

        Lmaooooo youre absolutely right. she didn’t sell 900 copies, she sold 949 copies lmfaooooo #949yonce #GoogleItBishh???

      • Will_xo September 17, 2019

        Clarkson I guess you’re one of this post millenials probably just finished high school or something and lacks a lot of PHYSICAL friends , just when you want to sound intelligent you take things to far almost like you have an OCD to bash someone (normani) or throw down someone in this case beyonce , dude beyonce did an album with mainly unknown African artists with barely enough promo , what did u expect and u know that beyonce could have done a hit with dr luke or max Martinal these years but didnt u know that right?

      • Shayla Queen September 17, 2019

        @Will_xo She had all the promotion from the biggest movie of the year, of which this album is an alleged “soundtrack” for. GTFO.

  7. Pat September 16, 2019

    These pageant vocals again

    • Meme September 16, 2019

      Not pageant lol

      • Tyty September 16, 2019

        You’re one to laugh considering who you Stan for? that’s a joke. Beyoncé is A rated vocalist no amount of no name broke commenters will change that fact!!

      • Meme September 16, 2019

        Yeah, a A rated vocalist who can’t make a good song save her life. All those vocals for nothing. Lolol

      • Tyty September 16, 2019

        You don’t even believe that crap you wrote you forget you was praising this album when it first came out? don’t play yourself… tryna a act like you ain’t bump to Beyoncé songs ?? fool.

      • Hmmm… September 16, 2019

        ^^^^lmao, exactly. ??? That’s how you know when you can’t take somebody seriously. Sis is directly contradicting herself with such confidence like we all weren’t here a couple weeks ago when she was saying the complete opposite. Girl, sit all the way down. Meanwhile, Rihanna has never and will never be considered an exceptional vocalist by even her own stans, let alone her peers. Literally, no one is ever blown away by a single note that comes out of her mouth. Ever… Not even once… ??????

      • Meme September 16, 2019

        I like it yes, but the general public, not so much. Chile numbers don’t lie.

      • Hmmm… September 16, 2019

        This conversation was never about sales, it was about content and ability. You just said that Beyoncé didn’t have any good songs, when just a few weeks ago you said you loved this album. So girl, it was either fake then or it’s fake now, but either way it’s fake. You change your mind more often than Jlo changes husbands. ?

      • I Told You September 16, 2019

        I been told yall he’s a flip flopper.

    • ??? September 16, 2019

      lmfaoooooo DEATH at pageant vocals lmfaoooooooooooooooooooooooooooooo

      • Clocked you September 16, 2019

        You’re always laughing at yourself. Get help. And continue watching Beyonce slay you from your cheap mobile
        Phone lmao

  8. ThiccRedbone September 16, 2019

    Predictable. Beyonce is boring and played out. Her whole elusive persona has run its course. In 2019 fans want to see personality not some robotic pageant queen. I’m glad we have Ciara to revive this sad music industry….

    • Dc September 16, 2019

      Ciara can’t revive her own career ????

      • King z September 16, 2019

        These comments are killing me

        Ciara just performed to an audience of people at a state fair eating chili dogs and funnel cakes and probably were only ACCIDENTALLY in attendance cuz they were resting their weary feet from all the walking

        Her career is the walking dead. If u consider that revival, then maybe u are right

      • ??? September 16, 2019

        lmaooo but ciara never flopped an album with only 900 copies, not even beauty marks tho lmfaoooooooooooooooooo

      • YAS BIH September 16, 2019

        Is that why level up is Platinum and her most viewed video ever she’ll always be fine with all those fat checks she’s been collected along with her faithful husband.

    • Nickie S September 16, 2019

      Preach!! Hiding behind Jay Z and Meghan Markle lol. Just retire already.

    • Carolina September 16, 2019

      Ciara’s last album debuted in the lower regions of the Hot 109. #87 I believe??
      Talent will always reign supreme. Personality is for reality stars. As a Ciara fan, you should sit this one out because your entire post was a self-drag…….

      • ??? September 16, 2019

        lmaooooo but that album still sold more than lion king: THE FLOPs 900 copies. talk about self drag lmfaooooooooooooooo……..

    • Winner September 16, 2019

      Ciara!!!!!!!! Her personality is dry and she can not sing like that why would you even try it lol

      • Shayla Queen September 16, 2019

        Your p**** is dry. Now go rub some vegetable oil over that shrivelled clam

      • Winner September 16, 2019

        oh my Shayla the trash lol u mad because you whack and you not a queen lol calm down boo, I mean if you want to be a queen I got a deck of cards you can use because I see you are bothered lol

    • Tnc September 16, 2019

      Lmao!!! Ciara’s flop ass could never give a vocal like Beyoncé. Her cat in heat sounding ass can barely chart these days. Where’s any of her music or albums on the charts?

      • YAS BIH September 16, 2019

        And beyonce will never be on the same level as Whitney or Mariah that’s why y’all like to bring up little ol Ci to feel good about Breathyonce who is flopping as well instead of Big time Vocal beasts who will blow beyawnce tf away.

      • Tnc September 16, 2019

        Ciara is on no ones radar beloved. One of her delusional fans mentioned her in the same breath as the iconic, regal Bey NOT the other way around.

      • YAS BIH September 16, 2019

        She’s on who’s ever radar that’s bringing her up and that’s not even a real Ciara fan

    • Nique Nique September 16, 2019

      Ciara who???! You gotta be on crack lol

    • Will_xo September 17, 2019

      I wasalmost with you then you mentioned Ciara you’re delusional

  9. Tyty September 16, 2019

    For the love of God can clarkson be blocked on this site that demon is up and down on every single post just spewing negativity on black women. Does this entity have a job, girlfriend/boyfriend anything that resembles a life outside of blogs and celebrities. It’s forever in the comment section spreading its Demonic energy. I’m sick of seeing this freak show on this page.

    • Shayla Queen September 16, 2019

      B**** get your racist ass blocked. Bye.

      • Tyty September 16, 2019

        I speak facts!! On you demonic mayo entities it’s not racism to call you what you are animals!!

      • Shayla Queen September 16, 2019

        B**** who said I was mayo? ? You just busted your own damn self. Be gone.

    • Shayla Queen September 16, 2019

      As to my point, you just proved what you are. Racist trash.

      • Tyty September 16, 2019

        Busted myself in what ? you’re under the impression or delusion I’m trying to hide something when I’m not… I called you exactly what you are. Not my problem what you do with said information as I don’t lose a wink of sleep over you. If you ain’t mayo you’re a mayo ally which equals to the same. Now run along freak.

      • Shayla Queen September 16, 2019

        Except you’re losing a whole lot of sleep by calling everything racism and obsessing over demons, mayo and mayo allies ? Side step b**** bye! Have a hot cocoa, grab a hot water bottle, lose the hate in your soul and I’m sure tonight you may sleep a bit better ?

    • Tyty September 16, 2019

      You seem triggered I call clarky a demonic entity all the time it’s the proper was to address that thing. Who loses sleep over titles or names? I would call it something else if it was appropriate but it’s not. You seem to be bothered by it though. Again nothing you say matters nor will it change how I address clarky. So in conclusion again I’m not losing sleep over you.

  10. Dc September 16, 2019

    Congrats to another future female billionaire

    Camicky will never ever be on Beyoncé’s level

    ?????????

  15. YAS BIH September 16, 2019

    See I wasn’t even going to go there but when I see some of yall trying to drag certain artists who are not even powerhouse vocalist to Beyoncé lets make it fair because truth be told she will Never be on Mariah Carey, Whitney Houston, Keke Wyatt, Jennifer Hudson or Jazmine Sullivan level of singing if we’re talking VOCALS they will sing beYAWNce so far under the table while clutching her pearls she’s not the best at singing and she damn sure isn’t the best when it comes to dancing.

    • Tyty September 16, 2019

      You are clearly not very well versed in this subject you just think shrieking at the top of your voice equals good singing if that was the case Christina Aguilera would be considered better than Beyoncé. Apart from Mariah and Whitney none of the people you named singe better than Beyoncé. Beyoncé is an Star rated vocalist. People who get paid to study vocals… you know experts say her singing is perfect. Try again fool. No amount of “ will change that fact. http://www.criticofmusic.com/p/blog-page.html

      • Shayla Queen September 16, 2019

        Payola. Like her awards.

    • Nique Nique September 16, 2019

      KeKe Wyatt, jazmine Sullivan and Jennifer Hudson could never out sing Beyonce and THATS FACTS!!! And Mariah hasn’t been able to hold a note since 2005.

      • YAS BIH September 16, 2019

        ? Are you serious? of course you wouldn’t see it that way I wouldn’t want to start posting yt links to prove my point.

      • Nique Nique September 16, 2019

        Post KeKe Wyatt’s rendition of Love on Top. Sis struggled for points. Jennifer Hudson just hollers and Jazmine, while I like her is very limited vocally. But go forth babe. Entertain me.

    • RicoNastee September 16, 2019

      With the exception of the first two divas, NONE of the aforementioned can do what Beyonce did in the posted video…

      • YAS BIH September 16, 2019

        Am sure they can do that and better here’s proof above

      • RicoNastee September 16, 2019

        I for one refuse to sit through 5+ minutes of hooping and hollering. I stand by what I said.

      • YAS BIH September 16, 2019

        In other words you were wrong ???

      • RicoNastee September 16, 2019

        In other words, I SAID WHAT I SAID.

        I have heard enough hollering from KeKe and Jennifer over the years to know that they aren’t touching Bey vocally. You can find yellers like them in a Baptist church choir on any given Sunday. I bet you won’t find anyone as gifted and versatile as Bey though.

        Now choke on that.

      • Clocked you September 16, 2019

        Shayla the Peasant, you ant. So because actual professionals give Beyonce credit, it’s Payola? Is she that powerful that she can do something like that? Damn she is a queen and really slaying you.

  16. GurlBye September 17, 2019

    When you put yourself on a hierarchy the only way is down. I can’t believe her label let her put out the album, there’s some okay songs but it’s a mish mash. She could have saved it by doing performances, but she thinks she’s too above it, it’s one of the worst flops in a decade for a artist at her level. Did she not learn from her first flop last year love is everything? I hope she is humble for her next project, otherwise soon she will be calling Kelly and Michelle for a reunion.

  17. MsYonce September 17, 2019

    A lot of these people in here posting are the same person and you can tell. Lol its sad like who has the time….Like someone before the site isn’t what it use to be.

  18. Unnatural September 17, 2019

    This was for the stans. Beyonce so vain she thought the lion king was actually about her. No real highlight of the artists who collaborated. It was all over the place and aside from the inserts of OG, youtube, and African children playing here and there, it’s just another exploitive play so Beyonce can make more money. Like this is like homecoming life is but a dream, and any other lame attempt of her trying to be real. Learned nothing new. If you want to learn about Africa, the dance the culture, the music, the people, you tune or visit the country. Beyonce been and there and she could not really tell is anything. She just want an opportunity to show off her twins and broken marriage.

  19. Ya broke N Ya mad ? September 17, 2019

    LOL Y’ALL ALL LOVE BEYONCÉ! THIS IS SO FUNNY. SO MUCH ENERGY. SPEND THIS MUCH TIME ON YA OWN LIFE. SHE WILL FOREVER THRIVE. Y’ALL BEEN TALKIN THE SAME SH*T SINCE HER DEBUT ALBUM LOL. SHE WAS JUST NALA IN LION KING. F*CKING NALA!! SORRY HATERS, KEEP HATING ??

  20. Maxx September 17, 2019

    Beyoncé is just boring now & has always been soooo freakin plastic. She will never reach Icon status if she doesn’t try to humble herself & just be herself & not just for ‘paying customers’ but just take the mask off & show your personality. If not, people will just continue to be bored with her.
