Speaking on Monday (April 25) to Entertainment Tonight, he said: "She's an artist and she's expressed herself and I think it's a beautiful piece of work. I think the theme, the overarching theme of forgiveness is just such a beautiful message and we need that in the world right now. We need it."

He added: "I think what she's done that is rare to mainstream media is she took a singer/songwriter approach to her lyrics.

"There's no fluff... It's the real thing and that's awesome.

"One of the most disappointing things when you buy a bag of chips is like, when you open the bag and it's only half-full of chips. She gave you a full, real instalment and it was no fluff. There was no crumbs and it was good to the last drop.

"It's just a really good musical emotional excursion, I think she did a wonderful job.

"It's 'Lemonade', so it had a little tang, but it had a lot of sugar. It was so sweet."

Williams was speaking from the set of The Voice US, where he's serving as a mentor on the new season.
