This study investigates the lexical style in Beyonc's album Lemonade (2016) by comparing its lyrics to those belonging to other artists' works released simultaneously and to Beyonc's previous albums, in order to identify its distinctive semantic fields. AntConc is used to retrieve keywords from the lyrics. Recurring keywords are then analyzed in their contexts and eleven semantic fields are identified and discussed. The findings are compared to Lemonade's critics' reviews to reveal similarities and differences between their comments and this analysis, which takes quantitative data into consideration. The analysis confirms some of the features identified by the critics and provides a deeper insight into topics unnoticed by them
