UH NO. ITS NOT BAD. U NEED TO SEE IT FROM A DIFFERENT PERSPECTIVE. ITS DIFFERENT, AND PEOPLE LIKE U “ANONYMOUS” NEED TO STOP BEING NEGATIVE. SHE IS BETTER THIS TIME, MORE EMOTIONALLY. SO STFU EITHER CAUSE UR A DICK OR U DONT FEEl.

beyonce will never ever ever go diamond !! i wont hate on her but she really needs to sit down and do some soul searching. this cd is prob the worst cd that i have bought in years, hands down! she needs to go back to r&b and stay. pop isnt for everyone. there is a thin line between crossing over and selling out, and im afraid that that line has indeed been crossed grossly. her 1st cd was a classic, 2 cd was a mistake, 3rd cd should have been back on track but isnt. another thing i hate is all of her screaming, she has a decent voice she should use it. the a singer envokes emotion with notes with a combonation of hi and lows. but i will continue to be a fan but i will not pretend that i like this cd. i guess beyonce forgot about ciara & brandy. ciara has the bangers and brandy had the pop on lock, with a super sick 2nd single. come on be i need u to get it together, the way things are now it hard to get back to the top once you have fallen off..

Well, I can only hope, but this cd is not trash, because no one would buy it, and a lot of people are. Shes amazing just deal with it, ur critisms wont stop her from reaching the top.

This album is one of the best albums ever made. It is so different from anything else. You barely can put a genre on this material. That is how hot it is. This is one of those records that will go down in history. Maybe some of the tracks have to grow on you haters but you have to admit Beyonce is the biggest star out. What other artist has all of the endorsements and record sales as her WHILE STILL MAINTAING HER SANITY AND CLASS?

this albun is really really really really good!!! its amazing! i think she has taken so many risks and she hasnt failed at all. all you people who say you dont like it i can understand where you coming from..but really you need to listen to the lyrics and hear how she sings on the beat. she sounds amazing…dont expect to hear baby boy or deju vu and you will realise that it is really a fantastic album. i think her voice is amazing on every track and she shows some real skills.
i love you B!!!!!!!!

YA R SUM TRU HATERS..I BOUGHT THIS ALBUM AND PLAYED IT 4 TIMES THE 1ST DAY I GOT IT. BEYONCE IS BACK AND BETTER THAN EVER. THE MATERIAL ON THIS ALBUM IS SO GOOD AND YOU CAN TELL SHE PUT A LOT OF EFFORT AND HARDWORK ON THIS PROJECT. IT WAS A RISK FOR HER BUT AS YOU CAN SEE ITS PAYING OFF FOR HER. THE SASHA FIERCE DISC REPRESENTING THE UPTEMPO AND BLARING BEATS AND THE I AM..CD REPRESENTING HER MOST PERSONAL SIDE YET ..THIS IS HER BEST ALBUM.AND FOR YOU HATERS..BEYONCE HAS GONE DIAMOND!. DID YOU GUYS FORGET ABOUT HER FIRST ALBUM DANGEROUSLY IN LOVE. IT SOLD 11 MILLION COPIES. WHICH FOR U DUM ASS IDIOTS MEAN DIAMOND STATUS!! THIS ALBUM IS WELL ON ITS WAY 2 DIAMOND STATUS!

I think the album is great. It’s my kind of music. I think some ppl think it sux because they don’t like that type of music but I love it. I actually think it’s her best album. She has shown that she’s grown vocally in this album. I jus think ppl that don’t like it probably don’t like that type of music or slow songs like the ones on her album. Anyway, Love It!!!! Didn’t waste my money! The only song I don’t like that much is Scared of Lonely! Good Album
November 23rd, 2008 at 1:49 pm
The REVIEWS from THE REAL CRITICS give her album a “c” on average. It aint the best. PERIOD. Fan or not
November 23rd, 2008 at 3:00 pm
