Beyonce Joins Her Songwriter/Producer Boots for New Song "Dreams"
After enlisting unknown songwriter/producer Boots to helm a majority of her surprise album, Beyonce repays the favor by featuring on his new song "Dreams."
Over a beat that recalls the trendy, alt-R&B sound Bey channeled on Beyonce—but with a few chopped-and-screwed samples thrown in—Boots croons his way through the melodic track before letting some John Legend-esque belts rip on the second verse.
Mrs. Carter creeps in on the third chorus to harmonize with Boots. She soon takes over the track, owning the bridge with a slew of impressive belts and high notes—some of which get distorted into wonky, trippy, reverberated eargasms. We likey.
