This was released as a single from 2016's Lemonade. It peaked at #23 on the Hot R&B/Hip-Hop Songs chart and #32 on the Hot 100. This is excellent. It's easily my favorite single from the album. R. City, who are writers on the song, told Rolling Stone that they wrote it for Rihanna and never ended up sending it to her. But I feel like this fits Lemonade more than ANTI anyway.

Perfection. It's the perfect closer for the LEMONADE storyline and it all comes full circle with it.

Great track, love the sample and the subtle horns. And the pre-chorus especially. And I agree, it's a great thematic closer and the lyrical connection to "Drunk In Love" makes the narrative even stronger.

This is the song on the album that has grown on me the most. I still wish the chorus had more to it, but it’s a solid song overall. And I do like the subtle use of the horn sample.

I would prefer to hear Rihanna on this.

Not one of my top favorites, but it's fantastic nonetheless. Was surprised to see it to as badly as it did on Urban radio coming off of three hits.
