Daily News | Review: Beyoncé is indomitable as the Renaissance Tour plays its first American show in Philly
Before darkness fell on Lincoln Financial Field on Wednesday, an enormous video screen showed a TV test pattern, cleverly reworked to include colors of the Progress Pride Flag celebrating the LGBTQ community.
The 2 1/2 hour spectacularly entertaining show started off with “Dangerously In Love,” a Destiny’s Child song that became the title cut of Beyoncé's first solo album in 2003. The six-song segment was a ballad singing masterclass, backed by an 8 piece band. Then, it was “Alien Superstar” time. And that’s when the state-of-the-art Afrofuturist spectacle of Beyoncé's first solo tour in seven years really began.
Sounds delicious, and for the most part, it was. Beyoncé’s one-of-one combo of talents were everywhere on display. For the traditional minded, she consciously placed herself in a long Black music lineage, not only with the Rose Royce and Tina Turner covers, but also a showcase of Philadelphia-born soul man Frankie Beverly’s “Before I Let Go.”
Beyoncé’s skills as a rapper are often under estimated. On the Megan Thee Stallion collaboration “Savage ,”she threw down with force, rapping while crouched atop an armored vehicle. Yes, it was pretty cool to see the actual Beyoncé suspended by wires and floating above the crowd on a platinum horse during the Donna Summer sampling “Summer Renaissance” encore. But most fans had already seen it on TikTok, so shortly after lift off, they made their way to exits in hopes of beating epic traffic.
