#Lemonade is much more than many people expected.
While the album is dominating
conversations on media and still on every entertainment headline,
discerning folks have been quick to notice that Beyoncé channelled Osun,
the Yoruba goddess of water, fertility, love, sensuality.

Dressed in a layered marigold dress
by Roberto Cavalli, the famous singer struck the identical look to
an artwork portraying the Yoruba goddess, and has since been turning
heads especially for bringing a lot of Nigerian heritage into this
important project.
Recall that we earlier reported that the
singer also featured the works of Nigerian artist Laolu Sebanjo and
designer Maki Oh in the epic visual album.
And so, what are folks saying about the tribute to the Yoruba goddess?
We might as well call #Lemonade a Nigerian epic, right?
