You'd have an ONTD! meetup where the only form of communication happens via catchphrases and cardboard cutouts of macros and animated gifs.

Listening to the album right now and "I Care" and "I Miss You" were great. I listened to "Best Thing I Never Had" before and enjoyed it too, so the album so far seems like Adele's 21 except not boring.

What a shame that Run The Bubbling Under closes the album though.

Yours is also infinitely much better so I'd say this is a worthy expropriation.
 
Y'all should give a listen to this costumer call: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=EyAFd_QuXhc

wow, Party is such an enormous flop that I feel compelled to make a post just to divulge how much of a flop that song is.

Are you going to repeat this in every thread? No even a panini is this pressed.

I've mentioned ONTD exactly 2 times. Shocking! My post in this thread was not mean hearted, and ironically not even far off from reality considering you decided to reply with *gasp* an animated gif and the "pressed hater" catch phrase. :p

Ehhh, not for me I guess... didn't like any song.

Thanks for the link to the full preview album site though, OP :D

I listened to the previews, and I have to say that Run the World is my favorite song of the bunch, which is saying a lot. I'm not sure if I just dislike Beyonce at this point, but I really am not liking this album.

Hopefully Kelly's album is all in the vein of Motivation, cause that, I could listen to.

This is the first Beyonce album I've really sat down and listened to extensively, and it's quite good. Liking it more, the more I listen to it. Standouts for me are 1+1, Best Thing I Never Had, Start Over, Countdown and End of Time.

I've liked When Love Takes Over, Commander and Motivation. So if those songs are any indication of Rowlands album, I'm gonna have to check it out.

Well, she was inspired by Adele and Florence. Also, here is one of the reasons why the album is more on the love side.

But I have seen girls poppin their pussies to Run The World, End Of Time and soon, Countdown.

I'm very happy with the final product! And most consumers are too, right now it's sitting at the top of iTunes worldwide chart.

I see you want that club banger, this one is for the ones in love.

I just finished listening to the standard edition and may have to take back the barb I sent towards Adele. It's just a good album, and what baffles me the most now are the claims of being a risky album. Are we really calling not adhering to the (dying) Eurodance trend a risk? Beyoncé may not have put out such a ballad-heavy album before, but there's nothing here that breaks new grounds, sonically, for her. I don't get it.

Great
I Care
I Miss You
Best Thing I Never Had (*my favorite)

Just OK
1+1
Rather Die Young
Start Over
I Was Here (*love the production though)

Messy
Love On Top
Countdown
End of Time

Would Not Be Out Of Place On Bionic
Party


I'm pulling (Not) Run The Charts out of the rankings because I inexplicably enjoyed it a lot this time, and also because it deserves special merit anyway for being the most hype deflating single of the year.

Exactly.

In the other 4 thread I already stated that me not liking the album doesn't say anything about the quality of the album. It's just that the music style she chose for this album (soul, r&b and lots of power ballads) are not really my thing.

Sorry, that's how it is.

Would still see her perform though, so at least she'll have tickets sales unlike Tacky Perra and Rihfund.

She performed a few times in France this month, all sold out concerts. You betta go out an buy those tickets girl.

By the way, she's performing in Central Park, July 1st. It's free to attend and part of the GMA Summer Concert series.

Rihanus is not allowed in this thread, reported.

I think what's considered a risk varies from artist to artist, but in the big picture, it consists of not "selling out" (whatever the hell that means, these days) to what's hot right now.

It's either do what's widely popular or stay true to yourself, and she chose the latter. I can definitely say, without a doubt, that I respect that.

(I've also been hungry for some straight RnB and she delivered exactly what I wanted in full force. :p)

Yeah, people are throwing shade on Rih-Rih, but it's to be expected. You must shade anyone who's topping the Billboard charts, especially when a certain someone isn't. :p

About to listen to the album right now, just wanted to pop in to say Run the World has slowly been taking over my life over the past week omfg
I find myself enjoying the live performances, but just listening to the song is kinda boring, I don't know.

She performed at X Factor yesterday and jumped on the judge's table, lol.

You can take your Trojan Queen out of this thread though, she won't be missed.

Schoolin' Life
Yas! Some of you are missing the deluxe tracks, and Schoolin Life is one of the best songs from 4. Definitely coming for the Grammys 2011, amazing lyrics and production, get them King B.

They don't what will hit them when Rih re-releases LOUD this Fall. More flawless slaying incoming.

OT: I really like 1+1, End of Time and I Was Here. Its a shame because this is the kind of album I wanted from Beyonce but its boring for some reason. I only really like her "I am" side of Sasha Fierce.

I approve your avatar. I also approve this album. 1+1 is something none of the other current pop divas can even approach. I don't get the love for End of Time though. It's like Run the World except without any of its frenzied energy.

Why Don't You Love Me (combination of song+video) is still the best thing Beyonce's ever done though.
 
Best Thing I Never Had is the first song on iTunes UK, since yesterday actually!

Gerl don't make me drag you! Rihanus releases an album every year and has yet to top the Billboard 200 (album chart). LMAO

Meanwhile, Beyonce has topped the charts with all of her solo albums, Dangerously In Love, B'Day, I Am... Sasha Fierce and now, 4.

When will your fave get a number one album? Beyonce already has four and is breaking records by doing so.

When will your fave get another #1 hit, let alone 3 from the same era? When will your fave get 100M+ on radio, when Run The World barely did better than Judas. It aint my fault What's My Name slayed your fave without mercy.
