#217-220 you dont have to type under different names on different blogs, you made your point.SMH

And like someone said earlier we all know Bey got curves for days so stop hating with that photoshop crap. You just mad you dont have curves like that. Sit down.

@ 213 - I PRETTY MUCH AGREE. ‘SINGLE LADIES’ IS ADDICTIVE BUT ‘IF I WERE A BOY’ IS A BETTER SONG WITH A DEEPER MEANING.

I hope you guys know that “If I Were A Boy” was originally written and recorded by a white girl name BC Jean. Look it up.

Beyonce is not as original as you guys want to believe.

Over 200 comments already? Queen Bey is officially back!!!

Both songs are hits. Loves this chick.

i believe that these songs are sub par but the rest of the album might be hot. I dont get the same excitement as i got whaen i first listened to ring the alarm or deja vu but it might grow on me. I love both songs lyricly though but i am hoping that the videos can enhance the songs a bit cause i am not sure how this will impact radio but u must admit that she never puts anything out that is just bad.

Bey is one bad bitch.

That first pic is DAMN.

Fuck Jay-Z

Songs are mediocre. But, her vocals are hot, as always. I like the concept though…”cuz if you like it then you should’ve put a ring on it.” That is a great hook. But, the song needed more.

I dont know. It didnt blow me away…and that is surprising because I am a Bey Fan!

@ JSCENE - WHAT DID U SAY? I DONT HAVE TIME TO READ UR PARAGRAPH.

if you like it then you shoulda put a ring out.. cute song..
she needs to change her style but she does what sells and Bey will continue to make them dollars.. with and without the haters.

cool songs but nothing as exciting as her previous singles

Love em BOTH! They are completely different and I like that.

I think its amazing how people have such HIGH expectations for Bee but when it comes to their fav artist they accept the trash they put out.

But hey, I guess thats just the effect a REAL artist has on people.

#228 you are retarded. It has been said several times that BC Jean did that demo for Beyonce.

Damn think before you type and look stupid.

LMAO at haters looking for any reason to hate.

Nice try though #228

200+ 229!

Lets see if it will break her old record of 700 comments when B’Day came out!

Then MAYBE ill consider buying her album bc i dont spend a brown cent on music ne more.

Is beyonce paying ya bills ya talking about beyonce like she is gonna help ya out damn the songs are ok don’t say beyonce is gonna kill it damn too much

beautiful nightmare kills em both…dont know why it was never a single

that jscene chick needs to be on medication

a lot of people love both songs. just cause you dont it dont mean nothing. damn dont listen to them or better yet stay off beyonce posts since you go so psycho over her and her fans.smh

Go Bey! Yea, this post will reach 500 posts by end of today! LOL
Why is that NOT the case when speaking on the upcoming election????
HMMMMM……think about it my brothas and sistas!

I love both songs and the dj’s are playing both to death. Folks are really hype about Bey album.

“If I Were A Boy” is just not good.
It seems as if she’s trying too hard, both vocally and content-wise.
Something’s missing.

Also, the backing track sounds VERY similiar to Joan Osborne’s “One of Us”, and I can’t get past that enough to even consider this song decent.

The only good part is towards the end, where there’s some feeling, but I can easily forget this song.

I LIKE THE COVER OF ‘SINGLE LADIES’ BUT THE TITLE SHOULD BE ‘PUT A RING ON IT’ INSTEAD THAT MAKE IT SOUND A BIT MORE INTERESTING.

ALL IN ALL I AM HAPPY WITH THE SINGLES ESP. ‘IF I WERE A BOY’. I’VE TO GO NOW I DONT WANT TOO WITNESS HATERZZZZZZZZZZZZZ GO CRAZY!!!!

‘IF U LIKE IT THEN U SHOULD PUT A RING ON IT’……………..

NOV.18 - ICONIC!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

#241 that’s because Beyonce is more interesting than the election to a lot of people. LOL

I love Bey but its true and kinda sad. But hey Barack is a Beyonce fan himself so maybe he wont mind being outshined.LOL

I’m just kidding. Pay me no mind.

Waits for Beyonce to claim she wrote it like she did Irreplacable

dag yall was beasting on here…i heard it earlier…i LOVE both tracks….and most of yall hate it because you hate beyonce’..some probably like it because u like beyonce..i love it..but if it was whack..i wud definetely have no problem saying so…B is back..and it’s about fuckin time…we hear someone wit talent..tear shit down..

Beyonce may be an icon for her hustle her music sucks. Like Mark says her music has no substance. I can’t see myself singing any of her songs 10 years from now like I can sing Mary’s and Mariah’s. Beyonce continues to make songs for the clubs and the teenagers. I’m just wondering why CL hasn’t put up Who song it better?

love em both….so glad she’s back!!

people are SOOOO STUPID
aint NOBODY hating on the chick
its CALLED BEING REAL
if any other singer such as Rihanna, Mariah Carey, Ciara, shit even Whitney Houston came out with THAT GARBAGE, then i would say THE SAME THING
the songs suck
it doesnt mean im a hater
get over it

#246 if that’s true then you are one pathetic person.

at least everyone else gave an opinion on the songs.

it must have broke your heart when beyonce made history as the first black woman ever to win ASCAP songwriter of the year.

seriously do you not have a hobby? what you typed is just sad.smdh

“If I Were A Boy” is okay. It will probably grow on me.

“Single Ladies” = womp womp

Overall, I’m disappointed.

#248 you are clearly one obsessed beyonce hater. you have been hanging around this post waiting for a who sung it better just so you can bash beyonce some more.smh

and plenty of people prefer beyonce’s music over mariah’s and mary’s myself included.

who the hell died and made you and mark the representative of everybody opinion? sit the hell down.

obviously tina turner, prince, luther vandross, and countless other legends think her music has substance.

With all these posts WOW!!! Looks like people are starting to see how re-hashed, borrowed and blue this chick really is. She’s a great imitator. It’s a shame because she’s talented on her own.

I agree with someone’s comment earlier about her and Jayz finding the Lord for real. Especially Jayz. He was raised as a Jehovah’s Witness then he has the nerve to adopt part of God’s name “Hovah” while living a life full of sin. Everybody get together. The Lord is coming back. All that money won’t save mean nothing to Lord when he comes back. Get your hearts right.

I love i love i love it.. yeaaaa beyonce

#254 you sound crazy. Are you really judging based off of comments on a blog? ROTFLMAO and last time I checked most people like the songs.

Whoever your favorite artist is, is an imitator. Nobody is original. NOt even Michael is original (james brown) so sit down witih that crap.

And you dont know a damn thing about Beyonce or Jay-Z. YOu dont know their faith or nothing about their relationship with God.

You need some serious help. You really think you know Beyonce and Jay-Z well huh? smh

Only Beyonce could generate 256 comments!!! GO BEY!

Almost 300 comments already? Its official. Both songs are a hit and Queen Bey is back and the talk of the town as usual.

Haters get ready to be miserable.

@163 Mark

,….Im sorry are you really saying Rihanna’s music has substance. Now all day long I dont argue the fact that ppl say Beyonce’s music doesn’t have substance (altho i disagree). But to say Rihanna music has some deep meaning is simply foolish. Shut and Drive? Breaking Dishes? Sell Me Candy? Please Dont Stop The Music? Are you serious???

And “Like A Boy” and “If I Were Boy” have two completely difference FEELS to them. They don’t even slightly remind me of each other. Yall is crazy.

And lastly Beyonce is well on the road to becoming a legend. Now if you can name 5 musical LEGEND whose songs all have some deeper meaning other than LOVE, HERATBREAK, or WOMEN EMPOWERMENT.. Then I might reconsider Beyonce being a LEGEND. But if I had to pick someone at the TOP of the GAME…It would be Beyonce…hands down

i don’t like if i were a boy but single ladies remind me of “get bodied” and it’s BANGER !

Both singles are HAWT. Bey outdid herself. Cant wait until NOVEMBER 18TH!!!!!

I like ’single ladies’ but not feelin ‘like a boy’

Sorry to get off subject CL but I’m just curious as to who Wendy could be talkin about on this link could it be Bey? listen to the hints:

http://www.zshare.net/audio/20138251c198e116/

some more tacky shit lolol …. git it together bey ….. do you really think lolol… HATED IT

Not feelin any of the singles… Honestly I don’t know why she feels she has to release an album right now. Let her sister shine let Michelle shine. She is overhyped and too damn commercial for me. I’ll just wait for a real artist like Brandy to release her album on NOVEMBER 11th I LOVE U BROCKA!!!

that single ladies is crazy.. that ooo shit is a hit… oooooooo O O O

both songs are a hot mess well i like” if i was a boy” but it sounds better when the other girl (BCJEAN)sings it bey can sing but that song dont go with her voice..come on yall now yall know that” single ladys” sounds like” get me bodie” an “crazy in love ” WELL SHE SELL BECAUSE OF HER STANS AN SOME FANS

I got something to say….

I like both songs….BELIEVE ME when I tell you once they’re in HEAVY ROTATION on the radio…..You’ll be singing these songs too.

I like the message in “Single Ladies” (put a ring on it) — Certified CLUB BANGER!!!

Love you Beyonce!!!

… lemme start off by sayin im a HUGE Beyonce fam. and i been dyin to hear these two songs!
def not what i’d expected. but i LIKE both songs. (keyword LIKE not LOVE.LOL)
they’ll grow on me tho. “If I Were A Boy” will def be a radio hit. and “Single Ladies” is a club banger.

(I would have gone with “BEAUTIFUL NIGHTMARE” and “FOREVER TO BLEED” as first singles but oh well)

*BLANK STARE*

*CRICKETS SOUND EFFECT*

@ 262 i was wondering when someone would mention that! I no CL wouldnt post that story these days…

I dont think its Queen Bey, i just cant imagine her doin that. And Wendy would have been done sold that tape for $$$$ if it was Bey bc she privately hates her! Birds of a feather….

I personally believe its Kelis or Tiny, im leanin to Kelis though LOL

*know

U GUYS ARE ALL GOING TO BE PROVEN WRONG AND B CRYING WHEN BEYONCE IS NUMBER ONE ON ALL THE AIRWAVES THIS IS BEYONCE WE TALKING ABOUT HERE SHE IS FAMOUS 4 MAKING HER MUSIC CROSS TO ALL RACIAL AND CULTURAL BACKGROUNDS SHE WILL BE PLAYED EVERYWHERE WHETHER U LIKED IT OR NOT BEYONCE ROCKKKKKSSSS

IM LOVIN SINGLE LADIES! *already got the chorus stuck in my head*.
Have yet to listen to the other!

@ #270 She mentioned 50 might want it and you know they been beefin

When i read the comments i thought man i’m bout to hear some bangin s!….what the heck are you listening to that i’m not hearing….neither is get me bodied, ring the alarm….ya’ll will just eat anything up just for the sheer senselessness of it all. What happened to Listen???? Are these even the final mixed songs?

TO THE PERSON SAYING THAT BEYONCE TAKES CREDIT FOR WRITING SONGS….PLEASE STOP THAT ISH.

She did say she wrote “Irreplacable” one time, but she has said in numerous interviews that Neyo wrote the song. And the reason she feels connected to songs is because unlike most artist…she’s writes and produces the vocal arrangements and harmonies. A great song is nothing unless it’s sang right.

And at least she puts effort into writing on her album…there are so many artist who don’t write nor produce on the records. Love Bee’s hustle. Thats why she’s on top.

P.S. I like Michelle’s albums…and for those who think she needs to leave matthew..yall crazy. She Excutively Produced her album, so she’s gonna get her money. Michelle is no fool.

PERSONALLY IM NOT A BEYONCE FAN, DONT REALLY LIKE HER, I THINK IF I WERE A BOY IS KOOL, I LOVE SINGLE LADIES….IN THE VERY FIRST PIC SHE LOOKS LIKE ASHANTI…WELL NOT AS GOOD BUT KINDA SORTA

Not feeling “If I were a boy”… sorry stans! I expected more.

@ 270, yes they have been beefin, but i dont see why!

I know he never been on her show but why should they have beef? She mentions him like every damn day

I dont think its Ciara either, bc I dont think her and 50 are like that ne more

wack ass songs! try again

When I first heard If I were a Boy I was like Ehhh because something seemed off about it to me. I mean it is a nice song but something about it was not fitting with her voice. But now after hearing the original writer and singer of it named BC Jean I love the song with her voice (Yes love love love) her version is going on my IPod. But hey I like Single ladies so 1 yes. That’s not bad. Good Luck Bee and BC.

* @ 274

Beyonce has done it again.

She is KILLING THE GAME!!!!

Both of her singles are heavily requested…and I’m sure the videos will push them over the top.

Let it be known that….the same ones who “don’t like the singles…hate them” are the same ones who are commenting that they don’t like Beyonce. So no matter what she does..people on BLOGS will try to comment and hate on it. Meanwhile the general public generally love the singles, and continue to request them on the airwaves. So stop passing all of this ish off as fact when no matter what you have something to say about Beyonce. Especially Jscene..just admit you hate Beyonce and don’t try to shyt on her singles and say they are worthless.

These same people will be singing along with the songs, requesting them on the airwaves, listen to the album, and run out to the dance floor when it comes on. But since it’s most popular to hate on these blogs that’s what you do when you secretly love Beyonce’s music. So predictable.

And DAMMIT I gotta ask…PLEASE TELL ME…WTF is a ‘real” artist.

Beyonce is the realest artist out there. She doesn’t do reality shows, she doesn’t talk about her family or her relationship. She focuses only on her craft. That’s what real artist do. They don’t need gimmicks and drama stories to help promote their talent.

And I kno “If I Were A Boy” will be a hot,.

BTW…How many albums did J-Hud sell in her first week?

I DONT THINK THE SINGLES LEAKED, RADIO HAS BEEN PLAYING IF I WERE A BOY. B IM SO PROUD OF U, I CAN HEAR THE TONE OF FLAWS AND ALL IN THERE THATS A VUNERABLE TONE AND I LOVE IT AND THE LYRICS! THAT PIC WOULD MAKE A GREAT ALBUM COVER.

Why does everyone keep comparing B and Rihanna. RiRi has her own style and swagger….she’s not trying to compare with Beyonce. Besides, Jay is grooming her and I’m sure he wouldn’t try to make her anything like his girl.

As for the songs…..they’re AHHHRIGHT! Not FIRE AT ALL.

Like a boy’s been done…….and what’s up with that Get me bodied remix?

yea both songs are quite boring…try again beyonce….

beyonce isn’t a natural beauty, she look a mess in that pic. and she got some weird ears

Okay EVERYONE ON CL SHOULD KNOW HOW I’M A BEYONCE FANATIC.

BUT!!

This is prue SHIT! I am disappointed. I expected it to be like, really hot. Like how she was claiming to be and Sean Garrett..this is bull shit. Well, I don’t hate the songs but nothing to be calling up my bitches about. C’mon Bey, this is the reason why I try not to get hype and set high expectations….because look what happens. Dammit Bey. *punches computer screen*

Welcome back Ms Carter!

WAT THE FUCK IS THAT….

RIHANNA COULD HAVE DONE THAT SHIT

SHE RECORDED THAT SHE CALL MUSIC

MORE WORK

THIS IS WAT SHE SAID SHE PUT HER ALL IN

If this thread isnt proof that black women are jealous, bitter and hate Beyonce for no reason…then I don’t know what else to say. SMH

Yall should be ashamed, bashing a fellow black woman like this. She’s done nothing to you angry, misguided haters.

Beyonce songs are OK… Some of U peeps are going hard body lol. IT’S NOT THAT SERIOUS !!!!!

NO,NO,NO,NO, HELL NO
THE SINGLE LADIES SONG SOUND VERY FAMILIAR AND NOT SO HOT
LIKE A BOY ………………………. KILL YOSELF!!!

http://WWW.MYSPACE.COM/SOSEXYNYOUNG

I can’t believe just last week when Jennifer Hudson’s album dropped, some of you had the ordacity to say it wasn’t good, and then you praise this crap lol. I bought Jennifer’s album, and her worse songs sound waaaay better than this garbage, and every track has substance! Both of these singles are trash, and i could care less about what Beyonce or her millions of stans think. She needs to go back through her repertoire and come back with something better than this mess of garbage! She’s been screwing the music scene over ever since she dropped B-day.

And for those of you who say no one is checking on Jennifer Hudson or her album, please go take a look at her album sales that dropped today on billiboard and tell me what you think! Her album was a str8t HIT lol, so someone was definitely checking.

:Yawn: @ single ladies. Bey you’re married, PLEASE start making more realistic music!

AGAIN!!!!!!!

WAT THE FUCK

IS THIS SHIT

IT IS LABOR DAY ALL OVER AGAIN

IF SHE LIKE IT….

SHE SHOULD GO BAC IN THE STUDIO

OH SHIT

SH SHIT

MY DOG IS WALKIN AWAY…..

DAMM

THIS IS THE DEFINITION OF

” NEED IMPROVEMENT” WHICH IS LIKE A 70 %

VOCALLY SHE IS OK —- ALL I HEAR IS SHOUTIN

BUT A FOR THE LYRICS IN BOUT SONGS….

NXT!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

UM…BOTH these tracks are HOT!!!

U people are so hateful and judgmental. The fact u make PERSONAL attacks against this poor woman, onnly serves to expose your own pathetic and meaningless lives. Yes, you’re entitled t your opinions, but if you aren’t Beyonce fans, why do u even click on this and hear the songs?? It makes no sense. Like I’ll be honest—I’m not a Rihanna fan and believe it or not, I STILL haven’t heard that Disturbia track she did, as I have COMMON SENSE, not being a fan. Why waste your time if u dont like her? Haters are the ones making her all this money and giving her free promotion. I bet half the skeptics on here will purchase her album, come November 18th. Hypocrites and liars, the whole lot you. The only STANS out there are the HATERS, because you are always in hot pursuit of Beyonce topics, in order to validate your mundane, boring lives. Yall might as well be her management and A&R, because u do all the promotion for her.

So keep hatin, cuz she’ll get even more famous. I guess this is what lack of education and no refinement does to haters lol!

SINGLE LADIES IS HIGHLY ADDICTIVE!! WHILE IF I WERE A BOY IS A SONG WITH DEEPER MEANING. THE DELIVERY ON BOTH SONGS ARE GOOD.
