Hi, I'm new here.

Is it true Beyoncé is only doing urban music now that it's trending? I've never really listened to her music, but I saw the Halo* video once and it was not ghetto at all. She lived in a mansion.

Signed,
Un-informed.



*It took me forever to think of a video that didn't have even a bit of "urban".

Turnt is underrated too, damn.

sourcing the music is A&R's job, Not matthew.
And he doesn't have anyrhing to do with what she wants to do musically.

I am wasn't that commercial. If I were a boy was huge risk for r&b star known for uptempo sexy music.
Whole I am side was opposite of what she has been doing and to her target market and fans.
Not to mention most songs on i am side wasn't radio friendly, big catchy songs.
And they weren't trend music.
Also iasf is more personel and relate to her than b'day was.

whole iam vs sasha 2cd was waste of money businness wise but show her artistic guts.

I always find a way to at least tolerate or like Bey tracks. 7/11 is kinda growing on me. baby steps.

Beyoncé's top 10 most underrated songs:

1. That's Why You're Beautiful
2. Once In A Lifetime
3. Wishing On A Star
4. Work It Out
5. Fighting Temptation
6. Gift from Virgo
7. Satellites
8. Summertime
9. Everything I Do
10. Superpower

Quality stuff.

a jam of mine.

i love the lyrics and the phrasing of this song

I'm gonna put the Platinum Edition as a 2nd disc of the original album, and have

1) 7/11
2) Flawless Remix
3) Drunk in Love Remix
4) Ring Off
5) Blow Remix
6) Standing on the Sun Remix
7) Grown Woman
8) Turnt
9) Dreaming
10) On The Run (Part II) with Jay
11) Rise Up
12) God Made You Beautiful

That way my iTunes isn't such a damn mess with all the songs we got from 2013 and the Platinum edition and whatever.

Satellites yassss

The fact that people think Beyoncé is bandwagoning urban music is just

Ring Off is too personal to judge.

Welcome to Hollywood is underrated too.



Perfect example of Bey's rap-singing skills. The bridge was originally rapped by Jay, then she takes it and adds a melody. Love it.

Get into my perfect beyonce single release what if! Oh I was really into it.

Good idea
I'd never include Rise Up on my iTunes tho, that songs trash, throw the Electra Bodega trap remix of Yoncé on there if you need to fill space

I duno, I just don't think I Am.. is very "Beyoncé". Perhaps she did want to test that music out for herself, but it obviously has not stuck with her. From DC - present the one thing that sticks out most is the I Am .. side, and yes it is a commercial side. Songs by Ryan Tedder and Toby Gad… pretty commercial stuff considerined Bleeding Love and Big Girls Don't Cry were huge songs from artists similar to Beyoncé.

I just needed to put it somewhere, I hate having singles in my iTunes unless they are a solo version or something.

Oh and I meant Dreams with BOOTS not Dreaming I get them confused.

this!!!

if bey wanted to teach us the dance routine, she could've just done a tutorial on youtube

ring off still slaying me

She's a pioneer though. They don't even have to be knowledgeable to know it. Just google her name before you speak
