Grade
82%, B-
Definitely a grower, but still her weakest release yet (possibly.) Meanwhile, the unique concept of a visual album and the way it was released bring new heights to the music industry.

It's pretty obvious a Part 2 is in the works. The doc is title "Part 1 - Self Titled" Part 2 is going to be Mrs. Carter.

[MusicTalker]

I would do this for singles, personally:

1st (December 2013-March 2014) Pretty Hurts POP
2nd (December 2013-March 2014) Drunk in Love (featuring JAY Z) URBAN/RHYTHMIC
3rd (April-August 2014) XO (all formats) - a lot of time to cement it as a signature hit
4th (September-December 2014) Blow POP
5th (September-December 2014) Mine (featuring Drake) URBAN/RHYTHMIC
6th (January-April 2015) Partition URBAN/RHYTHMIC

her website says, "part 1. the visual album" or something like that. there's probably no part 2, or if there is, it's probably not another album. people are just speculating.

[trainsskyscrapers]

You know how that vid on her website is called Part 1,,,,,,,,,,Do any of you think she is still releasing a second album titled "Mrs. Carter" at the end of the tour? That may explain why Grown Woman and Standing On The Sun did not make this album (You can never have enough uptempo bops). Ryan Tedder also speculated on two albums earlier this year/last year.

I agree but I'd release a new single every 2 or 2.5 months at the most, even XO.

[Bee․]

I assumed that Pretty Hurts would be the lead pop single, but I can definitely see Blow smashing.

[WELLYVER]

I am a Beyoncé Hater, but i gotta giver her props.

This is the best female pop album of this century.

[Remmy]

Um okay I just noticed that I listened to XO 56 times in the last 3 hours... If I added it into my most played songs of 2013 it'd already be #4.

[MDJD11]

Superpower is another fave of mine, HELL the whole album is flawless.

The video shows a powerful message.

Only listened to the 30-second snippets and on first impression I like "Drunk in Love" the best.

The first time I watched Superpower I knew the male lead was Shawn Sutton. I can spot those eyes anywhere.

[MDJD11]

Heaven is beautiful. I get Lana teas.

[August]

I'm still so slayed. Like I was listening to this album throughout the whole day and I still slays my life with every single play.

[Grown K]

Somebody please explain to me where the hell is Grown Woman, Standing On The Sun and all those african bops?

[Zolanski.]

Watching the Heaven video, I can't hold back my tears

[fridayteenage]

I want to see the videos but I'm too lazy to hunt as the label is pulling the easily accessible sites' uploads ASAP.

A couple of them seem interesting like Pretty Hurts.
