Let me tell you why this works (I’ve figured it out). First of all it’s a GREAT song, it just MOVES. Second, we love Solange BECAUSE we love Beyonce. Beyonce is an entity that is perfect, flawless, and a Supernova. We love Solange because she is like an unpolished Beyonce. She is raw. And “black-girl-lost-and-found”. She is unapologetic and makes her music and her videos for just her while Beyonce makes them for the world. And in being this kind of 2nd hand Beyonce she has etched a special place in all of our hearts. Now, we WANT her to win, DESPERATELY. Because we always root for the underdog. That’s why Frank Ocean is so huge. And WIN she does with her new song and video, “Loosing You”. Solange may just eclipse her sister, even if it’s just for a moment with this one. And yes, it is THAT good. See for yourself:
