Buzz of the Day: Beyonce Debuts ‘Hold Up’ Music Video on YouTube on 35th Birthday
The song and video was only exclusive in the singer’s visual album, Lemonade. Now anyone with a YouTube account can finally see the glory of it.
Beyonce has uploaded the video for Hold Up from her Lemonade visual album to YouTube as a standalone clip. The song, infamous for its music video, include writing credits from former Vampire Weekend frontman, Ezra Koenig, indie darling Father John Misty, and a sample from the indie rockers Yeah Yeah Yeahs.
Hold Up and the rest of the songs from Bey’s sixth studio album Lemonade, (released this April) was made available exclusively through Tidal after an hour-long HBO special of the visual album was broadcast. The TV spectacular was made up of music videos and vignettes set to the songs off the album.
