Prime Time Jukebox Episode 121: Album Archaeology #15 – Lemonade, Beyoncé

Prime Time Jukebox Episode 121 features the 15th installment of our Album Archaeology Series as we tackle Beyoncé’s Lemonade.

Much like an archaeologist digs and hunts for gems, on Album Archaeology, we dig into the I/O album. We go deep into each of the tracks of this album, looking at the music, lyrics, and stories behind this album. Most of the time, we have discussed a classic album; this time, we tackle a new album by a classic artist. It’s one we feel is already an instant classic.

We will also recap “The Big Game” and the Usher Halftime Show. Finally, also have a lot of music news including Grammys, Rock and Roll Hall of Fame, and the death of Toby Keith.

For this show, Coop smokes the Red Meat Lovers Meat Box Pressed by Dunbarton Tobacco & True while Dave smokes the My Father Le Bijou 1922 Petite Robusto.

As always you can follow along with our Spotify Playlists:
