♫ NEW MUSIC: BEYONCE - “IF I WERE A BOY” & “SINGLE LADIES”
Wednesday, October 8, 2008

The much anticipated singles from Beyonce have finally leaked - “If I Were A Boy” in tagged form, and the uptempo dance track, “Single Ladies.” The two singles are set to impact radio next Tuesday, while Beyonce’s third project titled I Am… will drop November 18th.
“If I Were A Boy” is a pop ballad, which finds Beyonce in a sweet spot vocally, and is produced by Toby Cad (”Big Girls Don’t Cry” for Fergie), while the Tricky Stewart and The Dream-produced “Single Ladies” feels more like “Get Me Bodied,” and will be service to urban radio. I must admit, this new material has me quite excited, as well as the statements that have been released by producers and Beyonce herself. Can’t wait to see what Sean, Rodney and Timbaland have done for her.
Check out Beyonce’s MySpace and stay locked to CL for more updates on Bey’s project!

I’ll skip this cd. Seems too much like the rest of her booty bouncy songs or that to the left shit. no thanks.
And if only her body was really like that picture up there LMAO That’s the magic of technology folks! Beyonce has no tits and no ass she just has wide hips and theho
wish her waist was that small, Last time it was that size she was 8 LMAO
Only hood niccra’s worship a shape like that anyway. Try classy like Rih, tall, statuesque and gorgeous. Not some rolly polly trashy lookin chic that think she got a fat ass even though her ass is flat and Kim Kardashian has implants that put Beyonce flat butt to shame LOL Sit down Beyonce! Grow some titss

I have been a Beyonce fan since day one, but I have to say, I’m not really feeling either song. I mean, vocally she sounds great on “If I were a boy” and I love the lyrics, but overall the song is just kinda blah. As for single ladies, it just sounds really one dimensional and kiddish. Don’t get me wrong, Im still gonna buy her CD, I just hope she comes a little harder on it…

I’m looking at all the names who says Beyonce is over. How can she be over when she has over 500 posts on her singles. That has to be more posts than I’ve seen on any topic this year including things involving Barack Obama. Wow. Beyonce must be doing something right where she got hundreds of people to comment…just imagine the many people who just came here to listen to the songs and leave. She is killing the game as usual..and will reign on top. Are some of you that crazy to believe that Beyonce’s album won’t go number one..or least one of the recent singles wont? I believe the songs are HOT.
Keep doing you Bey when you debut at number one on the charts…and come with blazing videos. Half of the people hating will have your album or will have used computer space to download it, and use their energy to comment. Either way you’ve done your job.
The Queen is Back.

It’s official Beyonce is overrated. I’m sorry but I find myself bored with these songz. I was actually anticipating the songs but I feel disappointed. “Single Ladies” is just blah I can’t get into it like that it just doesn’t bring hot to mind. “If I Were A Boy” I like more but still it’s blah not anything to be excited about. I was expecting “HEAT” but this left me shivering literally. With all the talk and producers lined up she shoulda and coulda came better. She will always be vocally superior to the other girls (excluding some) but these track = wackness.

ARE U SERIOUS??? Beyonce got nearly 600 fu*kin comments on this b*tch??? LOL Beyonce is something serious yo…I didn’t think she was gonna ’cause too much buzz, but damn, guess I was wrong! lol But anyway, Im feeling the ‘if i were a boy’ song, she was SANGin that song and I like the lyrics. “single ladies” is something you bump at the club or on your way there! lol Umm Beyonce is actually making me think about buying that album LOL. And I hardly ever buy albums…

I know this is a double post. Originally I had just read the first page I just read a few more. All I have to say is “MAD” MAD BEYONCE FANS. They get sooooo upset when someone dislikes anything Bee they don’t wanna hear it. People it’s just opinions don’t start convulsin. I mean I hope you didn’t expect everyone to like it and those who didn’t not to express it. I’m sure yall have all expressed your dislike for something on this site before.
567.
True
Thursday, October 9, 2008 /
Folks are a trip!! If someone choses to listen to these songs, they are entitled to comment on them. Whether the comment is negative or positive they ARE entitled to their opinion! The same people that are saying that they are haters for doing so are probably the same exact ones that have no problem commenting on other artists’ songs with as much disdain as some have exhibited here. Just because it is BEYONCE does not make her exempt! I like Beyonce for the entertainer that she is, I will not take that away from her at all.
That being said, I kinda like the “If I Were a Boy” song but that “Single Ladies” song should not even be on the album. It really does sound like a leftover from B-Day. Sorry folks but I can’t say that I hear any growth from previous works from her. What happened to the new sound that we were supposed to be getting?

Yeah, i am a beyonce fan all the way from south africa…I love you bey
BUT, these songs are whack! Single ladies is catchy but only if you listen to it a couple of times as in over and over and over….and over.
If i was a boy is a great song lyrically…But i dont think that it suits her voice…her vocals sound a mess, high pitch low pitch and all that in between…She starts screaming way too early in the song….to make it sound more dramatic…
I think it should have been given to someone with a deep strong voice would of done the song better justice…

Beyonce makes music for her fans, if you don’t like her music fine, do you.
This woman has so much talent it’s sick. She is on top of her game PERIOD.
She gives you a show in her performances.
It amazes me the level of hate, for what? I mean really what is the purpose of being so negative? Do you feel good after?
This woman is living her dream and maybe that’s what so many people are envious of. I don’t know, I can’t dissect it.
I’m a fan Beyonce and I love the new songs flat the f**k out!!!!

You stans are ridiculous! Just because she has 500+ posts does not mean that this garbage is going to be a hit. What happened to the good ole days when we had real singers and real music? Nowadays a chick can scream all over a track and the kiddies will call it great music. GTFOH! Sorry, but this chick is not a legend and will never be one until she gets out of this bubble gum pop bull malarkey. I can guarantee that no one will be singing this garbage in ten years.

I really don’t like either song and even though I am not a huge Beyonce fan, I loved her first album to this day! However, “If I Were a Boy” sounds like something adult contemporary. Doesn’t make it a bad song, just I wasn’t feeling it. “Single Ladies” sounds like many songs she has done before. The little sing-song hook and the uhh ohh has been done many times before. All and all I’m sure she will do well. I just was expecting more from her.

Beyonce must be doing something right.
I agree with #75 if you are a fan Beyonce will never disappoint best believe her album is going to have at least three songs you can’t get enough of. No one was feeling Deja Vu and its video at first either but that didn’t stop her and neither will this.

Beyonce did it rt dropen a more pop song and it actually sounds kinda country… but I know y half of you think it whack.. Is becuz half of you are black and thats not the type of music we listen to… but in music you have to be vers… she really has done something different… yea single ladies is a party song but it doesent sound like get me bodied its actually a betta feel to it… its like a athem.. And beyonce is known for maken a catchy song… so the slow haters can catch onto it… lmao…
Bey if I were a boy is being played on 105.1 and single ladies you are something serious… SHE’S BACK… INDUSTRY SHUT DWN.. SYSTEM OVERLOAD…. OH AND CIARA WHO? She don’t sale half of what beyonce sales… but I like ciara too… and britney… yo I jus think its some real good artist out… but beyonce is hot and she is the truth…..

Speak the Truth
Thursday, October 9, 2008 /
Well, I have listened again and I still don’t get it. I think Beyonce has run out of steam. Her creative juices are not flowing anymore. Now its all about the money and feeding her ghetto crowd just what they want. This is not expansion folks, its not growth, it is stalemate for Beyonce. She is uh oh uh oh uh that was like 4 years ago and she is trying to re-create the hook from Crazy in Love? Times have changed Beyonce but your music is stuck on auto pilot.
Someone asked why do people comment when they don’t like it? Because its called freedom of speech. Someone has to tell the truth, we know you STANS won’t. You all worship the ground she walks on, yes that’s great for he ego, but she will be like WTF happened when she releases this shit and it stalls out on the chart. If you love her so damn much at least keep it real. Be real with your homey! These songs are NOT the bizness! She’s giving yall just what you want. More watered down, no soul, screaming all over the place lazy hooks music. Now, if FANTASIA sang “I I were a Boy” it would be FIYAAAAAAAAAH because that chick has the voice for it. Beyonce does not.
Peace
600.
Love Beyonce
Thursday, October 9, 2008 /
When an artist has almost 600 post, that tells that she has the ability to make people look and listen. Even if you don’t like her. you take notice.
YESSSSSSSSSS MAAM Miss Bee
