MUSIC NEWS: PREVIEW BEYONCE’S I AM… / KERI HILSON PUSHED BACK AGAIN / MARIO PREPS NEW ALBUM

Friday, November 7, 2008

PREVIEW BEYONCE’S I AM…

Just a couple of weeks away from its release, the full version of Beyonce’s third studio, I Am… have surfaced on the internet. You can now preview the entire album. The double disc will drop November 18th, in two formats. One version will be a deluxe edition, with extra songs.

Beyonce co-wrote all the songs on I Am… with production from Rodney Jerkins, Mr. Bangladesh, Tricky Stewart & The Dream, Stargate, Amanda Ghost, and many more. The album, from what I gathered, is pretty impressive. I expected to love the Sasha Fierce side moreso than the Beyonce side of the album, but I was pleasantly surprised.

KERI HILSON PUSHED BACK AGAIN

Unfortunately, Billboard.com has reported that Keri Hilson’s debut album, In A Perfect World…, originally slated for September 23rd release, then pushed back to November, and then December 9th has been pushed back again, all the way to “early 2009.”

Keri, who just released a video for the Timbaland-produced second single, “Return the Favor” and recently just shot a video for her third single, the Lil’ Wayne-assisted “Turnin’ Me On,” has been writing for a while now, and had fans excited to finally get a glimpse of Keri as an artist for a while now, but it seems as though now we’re going to wait just a little while longer.

In A Perfect World… will contain productions from Timbaland, Polow Da Don, Royal Court as well as newcomer Cory Bold, with cameos from Lil’ Wayne, Timbaland, Tank, Akon and R. Kelly

“I didn’t want to do an album that painted me perfect,” she said. “What’s missing in music is just that: showing the vulnerable side of women, the real. Showing women you can be yourself. You don’t have to walk around like your sh*t doesn’t stink.”

Well, Keri… I hope to hear a solid release date sooner than later, because I don’t want her fans to start to get discouraged or lose interest.

MARIO PREPS NEW ALBUM

Mario is prepping and putting the finished touches on his upcoming fourth album, which is currently untitled. Mario mentioned before that he was working with a few producers to make a more cohesive effort, so he’s been in the studio with the likes of Rodney ‘Darkchild’ Jerkins, Tricky Stewart, Babyface, Stargate, Polow Da Don and KP Malay to bring you this new album.

Mario describes this album as the “most personal, colossal album of his career.” The album will drop at the top of 2009 via J. Records.

Beyonce, beyonce, beyonce… (SMH)

And I understand about it being promotion and all, but there is a such thing as TOO DAMN MUCH.

-A double album?

-A re-release??

-ANOTHER video anthology??? You would think by now Beyonce would be tired of feeling herself. No wait. She wouldn’t because she’s fuckin Beyonce.

-A re-re-release IN SPANISH?????

Is it just me???

AND NOT ONLY THAT, BUT IT WILL BE ALL OF THESE RE-RELEASES FOR A BAD ALBUM!!!!

i havent heard the whole beyonce album but i must say “Broken-Hearted Girl” is a beautiful song….and i hated Single Ladies at first but that and If I Were A Boy have been put on repeat over here…..Diva is funny.Radio IS MY SHIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIT!and i know somebody is going to get mad for m saying it but Radio sounds like something rihanna would do but i still love that song.

i will say that beyonce wants to be a legend and be remembered for her music but as some have said before,her music is not the kind of music you’ll call classics 20 years from now…….but i can accept that because i dont listen to her music for that reason alone,its the same with people classifying Wayne’s music as crap and having “no substance”,if i want to hear about real life issues,i wouldnt pop their cds in,i have other artists that i listen to for that…..

WHAT-THEE-HELL?!

People on CL are saying “There are too many different sounds on this Cd and it is too much” .. about Beyonce’s I Am…

I say..*Are you guys really that slow? This was a very smart idea to do because if she just had that ‘ghetto’ music like Diva than the more-so pop fans wouldn’t enjoy it and reconsider buying the album. If she had straight ballads and pop music y’all know damn right you would be WTF’ing it and not get it. She has a huge variety of music on here I think it was a great idea. No matter what, this is going to sell rediculously regardless of y’all stank minds.

IMO..Keri is a recycled Rihanna (not a good look). Her new video shows how unoriginal she is. I don’t understand why she can’t just put the damn album out all ready. The more they push it back the more people are going to be like EFF it, and Keri.

Mario’s voice annoys the ISSSHHHH out of me. But, I still like his songs.

Okay…**SMH** Bey’s stuff was booty wack, and I am a fan. I was expecting SOOOOO much more from the Sasha side. The Beyonce side shows emotion and depth but we kinda know that she can do that already. Does she have any friends in her camp or is she that head strong? I need to hear the rest for a final verdict, tho.

Ok, at first I was like uhn uhn B needs to go back to the studio with this album and think about what she just did. Then I gave it a second listen and it wasn’t that bad. The song “Ave Maria” is B’s attempt to show her audience that she is cultured. But, as her audience, and fans, we know B is cultured from all them darn pictures we seen over time of she and Mr. Carter on their private yachts in the South of France, walking the streets of Italy, diving off boats in the ocean. We get it B, you are more than a bubble gum pop artist! ; )

I like some of Beyonce’s music, not all of it. Her voice gets annoying after a while. This album is different, she’s killing it in “DIVA”, She sounds funny cursing. She’s a great performer and she delivers. She should take a break after this and enjoy being married, have kids etc. Exhale… U cant always stay on TOP !!

…you all are crazy if you think that this isnt Beyonce’s best solo effort thus far.

VOCALLY - this woman has traveled lights years from where she was in the past and it is blatantly obvious. Songs like “Halo”, “Dissappear”, “IIWAB”, “Radio”, and hell even “Single Ladies” (give me another artist that could’ve done that track justice!) all prove that.

IMAGE - wise she has found the BALANCE. She has toned down the make-up, the drag queen like effects and picked up a more natural tone thats beautifully accessorized with her now “euro-glam” ensembles. The hi-fashion editorials, and the runway collection dresses and gowns that she rocks screams “ICONIC”. Its all a well pieced together puzzle - and if you guys can’t see it its only because you all don’t wish to.

Beyonce has proven why she is a FORCE out here. NO ONE gets the LIFE she gets when its her season. NO ONE sells out arenas like she does thats in her genre at this point. NO ONE gets more media attention than this woman as an African American and we are the ones who puts her down. And its mostly WOMEN. And if you didn’t realize her music is for the WOMAN. This really blows me how people down her and she only gets up every morning doing what she LOVES to - and that is to merely sing and entertain.

No matter how people react to her or what she does she is always ridiculed. You say her music is too “ghetto” or all she does is shake her ass and then she goes and records “Broken-Hearted Girl” or “Ava Maria” and now shes boring… come the hell on people. Its called being contradicting. It seems as though this woman can’t do anything without mountains trying to be moved on her feet. But it is all empowering at the end of the day because Beyonce is here to stay and she wont be going anywhere for times to come.

“I’m done with being the “it” girl. I wish to be iconic and with this new project I plan to solidify my stance as a LEGEND”. - Beyonce

Well stated Mrs. Carter. And you are definitely on your way.

God Bless.

Beyonce is getter wacker by the day. Beyonce needs us to buy her albums and concert ticktets no matter if we are haters or not, she is tired of preaching to the choir (which would be her stans) she wants a broader audience, but its to late because people are tired of her.
The album isnt garbage, if it were coming from a different artist…..but for this to be Beyonce this album is garbage. I can only listen to Halo and Disappear which are the same songs others like. Diva is cocky and thats fine but when she sings about being 15 in stilettos she lost me, because to me being 15 in stilettos, gyrating, and looking older than you are then something is wrong. Having other people write deeper songs for you is not going to make you an icon, people gravitate to people who are honest and you can tell the song came from their heart. GO AWAY BEYONCE, YOU ARE NOT WELCOMED HERE ANYMORE!

What do Beyonce do to you people is not her fault that your life is fuck up and she got things that you wish you have..This album is dope the Beyonce side is beautiful and Sasha side is dope. Don’t hate on Beyonce because at the end her album would still be #1. Damn you people act like she hurt you talking about her like dat hateful..But than the sad thing about it you want her to fail WHY??? ANYWAYS SHE STILL A DIVA!!GO BEY YOU GOT THE HATERS ON LOCK!!!!

LOL! guess i didnt miss much!

don't Be churlish....(Bey post, start stampeding)

Friday, November 7, 2008 /

But you guys also have to remember that songs grow on you. When Beyonce released Single Ladies and If I Were A Boy, I ligit gave up on her, I claimed myself as NOT a fan anymore. And we all know how much I stan for Bey too. But now I absolutely love them. Her songs tend to grow on me after while. Like right now, this album is OK. I’m telling you, I absolutely adore Beyonce but some of these songs are not great at all. But they’ve been getting better the more I play them.

I think Dangerously In Love was her best solo album BY FAR. I hate cd’s that I have to skip songs constantly, I like them to just play. B’Day, I was like ‘NEXT, NEXT, NEXT, NEXT”, I wasn’t impressed at all. DIL, However, I skipped probably two songs, Hip Hop Star, and Signs. But regardless of her cd’s outcome, I will be buying it, no doubt, that’s my gurl.

BTW:The best CD I’ve EVER purchased regarding Beyonce was Destiny Fulfilled. Ohh LAWD, I loved that cd. There was not one song on there I didn’t love. I still listen to it now….I really loved DC.

LOL… Beyonce was never done with being an “it” girl, she only said that because she knew she wasn’t the “it” girl anymore, so she had to think of something else to aspire to be that she considered better than an “it” girl, which is a legend…. but legends don’t make bullshit music like this…. nor do they try so hard to become a so-called legend…. sorry Bey…. nice try but…. No.

I tell ya, Beyonce cause more riots on these blogs than a lil bit, smh. I’ve really seen some folks trip out like Beyonce was their sister or first cousin. Please stop.

Anyway, I have mixed feelings about this album. I did buy her first two, but I’m not 2 sure about this one. IMO, this album is just too mixed up. She’s damn near singin opera on one song then she’s talkin about shakin it and saying “ERRRday” on another track. It’s like she’s having a battle between being classy and being hood…and personally I’m confused. Now, I don’t think disc 2 is terrible. I can see myself rockin to a few of those songs and I really like a few tracks on disc 1.

However, while trying to appeal to mainstream pop and hip-hop, she has completely FORGOTTEN about her R&B roots. There is nothing on this album for those that fell in love with Beyonce’s R&B tracks! I co-sign with everyone on how great of an album DIL was…but she has really forgotten about us R&B folks on these last two albums. If I could’ve heard just ONE song that sounded something like, “Me, Myself and I” or “Be WIth You” I would’ve been cool. I completely understand Beyonce challenging herself by doing something new and I truly respect that. All I’m saying is while you’re trying to step up your career game, don’t forget about those who helped start your career in the first place.

im not really sure what to make of beyonces album. i mean, i love if i were a boy and single ladies (its my ringtone lol) but these other songs, i dont know. i like disappear and a couple others on the beyonce side, but i feel she went too far with sasha. at first it was like, ok this is her stage persona, but now that shes actually trying to record songs “as sasha” its a bit too much. beyonces trying to solidify herself as a legend, but i think some of the sasha songs are a step backwards for her (diva anyone?). now im a straight up beyonce STAN, and i’ve already pre-ordered the deluxe edition of the album, but i think it’ll take some time to grow on me. i guess im just used to the heavy baseline head bangin crazy in love beyonce.

Friday, November 7, 2008 /

Im not retarded, songs do not have to grow on me to like them…..If im not hearing the sound that I want within the first 10 seconds than its garbabe. Nothing has to grow on you, if something has to grow on you that means it is being forced, you should automatically know if you like something or now.

Also Beyonce does not know any of us, including you people who think you are a fan…..she does not know your name, stop braggin about what she has if you aint got it. Beyonce doesnt need for anyone to defend her including her crazy ass stalker who think they know her personally. GO AWAY BEYONCE, YOU ARE NOT WELCOMED HERE ANYMORE!

OH YEAH THIS BISH STAY LYING, SHE SAID SHE WROTE “EMOTIONS” BY THE BEE GEES, “KISSING YOU” BY DESEREE, AND “WISHING ON A STAR” BY ROSE ROYCE AND REMADE BY THE COVER GIRLS. I DONT BELIEVE SHE WROTE ANYTHING ON THIS ALBUM EXCEPT FOR OOHH LA LA. WHAT DO YOU EXPECT FROM SOMEONE WHO NEVER FINISHED HIGH SCHOOL BECAUSE HER PARENTS THOUGHT HER PERFORMING SEXUALLY WOULD BE BETTER.

“Ave Maria” is taught in most middle school music courses. It doesn’t mean she’s cultured anymore than someone’s knowing the lyrics to “Imagine” makes them an expert on the Beatles. She was likely exposed to that song as a kid. I’m surprised you weren’t actually.

TTT

Friday, November 7, 2008 /

Um I agree, how did she co-write all the songs when one song was written by the lead singer of One Republic, Ave Maria is not original and of course if I was a boy.

I am not feeling the album or her direction at all. I think they came up with the Sasha Fierce album idea and took it too far. The alter ego we’ve seen on stage is not the same as the Sasha Fierce songs. They went too far and now it just sounds ghetto.

Can someone give her a stylist please?!?!? I love Bey but having the camel hump hair does not make her look any different from how she’s looked since her Destiny’s Child days.

Aretha already did this sort of thing, by the way. She’s got a new album on the way devoted to it exclusively as well.
And the Diva song, as bad as you’ll hate to hear this is in the same vain as “Lemme get that” in which Rihanna raps.

Friday, November 7, 2008 /

Ok folks….lets be real without attacking the person… The album i am.. is hot… especially the entire A side (the beyonce side)…… Halo, disappear, Broken hearted girl and satellites show growth and are amazing songs not only writing wise but vocally. As for the Sasha Feirce side… Radio, Sweet Dreams and Diva are great songs. The one thing that people must understand is that for a person to grow sometimes they have to stray away from what they usually do. I think this album is one of the most daring and progressive albums that she has done and i dont love everything that she does. I mean of course some of the tracks on the sasha feirce are “fun”, “bubble gum”, whatever else u wanna call them.. but thats sasha fierce, so u should have expected…. what u shouldnt have expected the great slow tracks because for the first time there is an album with 9 ballads that someone can play from cover to cover because their all good songs. Out of 10 i give beyonce a 8 1/2 and trust ego and halo (her next singles will shut ppl up..)

P.S. how can you steal a song from someone when they 1. didnt have time to record the song…2. felt the song was too much like her first single to want to take that risk….3. never stepped in the studio or signed off on agreeing to recording the song. 4. PAID for the song…. Leona has always admired beyonce and Simon himself said it was one of beyonce’s songs(dangerously in love) that made him first realize what a great talent she was. She has also said countless times that she looks up to beyonce as an idol and vocal inspiration….so stop trying to create beef where none exist…..they are both great singers and will both shine in the industry as long as they continue as well as they have…

I heard the I Am album and as a Bey fan, I was HIGHLY disappointed. The tracks on the Beyonce CD all sound the same and the Sasha Fierce CD was mediocre. I felt insulted as a Bey fan, and what’s up with the track “Diva” - it’s like c’mon Bey…you can’t give us BDay and then follow with this. But hey, I guess she thought it would be well received, but I think she may want to consider going back into the studio.

BREAKING NEWS: BEYONCE IS NOT GOING TO DO ANOTHER DIL. I’M SORRY. When she does something different you talk shit about it. Yet you beg her to do something different. You put so much pressure on artist to recreate something they’ve already done and that’s not going to happen You finally have an artist that’s trying to take a leap and you push her off the cliff before she gets to jump. Close your mouths and open your minds and ears because if you listen to all of the album its really good besides two or three songs. And about Rihanna she’s garbage she can’t sing or dance and her live shows are horrible. She’s no where near Beyonce.

I wouldnt expect alot of igornant ass people on this site to like Beyonce’s CD anyway. Yall always find something to complain about when you know what your doing isnt half as big as what she does. Most poeple on here, wish they can be in Beyonce shoes one day just to see what its like to be on top. But you never are bc most of yall on here are haters. No matter what she does iits not good enough for you. I heard the album and loved it. It has alot different types of music to reach out to her immense fan base. What ever YOU (HATERS) say, she will sell and be laughin at your broke ass straight to the bank.

WTF? Beyonce cannot do anything to win with you guys. She has practically tried absolutely everything and you are still not pleased. When she continues to do the same thing you complain that she is boring, but when she does something different it’s horrible and complete trash. WHAT DO YOU WANT FROM HER!? The only option she has left is to stick a gold tooth in her mouth, whip out a banjo, and call it a day. The chick has been changing her styles to try to please you all but it seems like she can never win.

She gets dressed up and fancy:
-She looks like a drag queen.

She dresses down:
-She looks boring as hell.

She sings out on her track:
-She’s forcing it/hollering.

She sings softly:
-Boring as hell, she does nothing for the track.

BEYONCE..JUS..LIVE!!

Thank You people keeps talking about DIL and IF she was to another cd like that than people would say she didn’t grow. People always try to put her in a box but please allow her to do what she feels. I have heard a few songs off the cd Diva not feeling it at all to much Amilli to me

Halo I love it she sounds beautiful on it. I am a stan so I’ll buy it anyway.

***I’m not hating on Beyonce, I think she’s beautiful and of course, she’s a star. But she clearly thinks we are idiots to say she co-wrote all of these songs. I would appreciate her more if she would just stop lying. AND, these songs ARE WHACK. I think she just could not stand to sit still for a while and rushed this mess out instead of taking her time to do more quality and elevate her music. Anyway, it’s still gonna be number one but I won’t be buying it.

They need to stop playin’ - all that pushing back on Keri’s CD is getting old.

I don’t like anything that I listened to on I Am… and I’m sick about that because I pre-ordered that ish. *Gone to iTunes to cancel.*

I agree with whomever said she was trying to do too much - she’s going to lose her black audience if this is what she’s coming with. Urban radio will put in rotation because it’s Beyonce, but it won’t stay there long. I’m really disappointed.

I really like Halo… originally it was meant for Leona Lewis but there wasn’t enough time in her schedule to record it so Ryan Tedder gave it to Beyonce’s camp… how Bee gets a writing credit for a song that was floating around the industry is surprise to me but hey, amazing track so what do I care. That said, the rest of the album is incredibly weak and uninspired, the girl has nothing to say from the soul. So busy trying to have a finger in all pies there ends up being a total disconnection of spirit on her material. Three strikes and you’re out IMO; if Beyonce still hasn’t managed to deliver a solid, real and genuinely insightful album by this point in her career then it clearly shows she’s incapable of such a thing and lacks the creative intelligence to do so. It’ll never happen and at this point after trying so hard to feel her as an artist on the basis of ‘I Am…’ I’ve just straight given up.

How can put this delicately?

Beyonce this ish sucks LOL. I mean, who Jesus, maybe with time it’ll grow on me. But right now it’s growing like a fungus. Noooo I thought you would’ve bitten the Rihanna template. I don’t know what this is. I’m scared for you. I actually did like B’Day. But, you need to shoot these writers. You did great with Single Ladies and If I Were a Boy. I don’t know what you’re going to release after those two.

well, the “beyonce” part is fine and listenable, while the sascha blabla part is trash, just as 90% of the pop music thats out there. thats why i stick to indie, really pop music is getting whacker by the day. all artists sound the same, cos they have the same producers and songwriters, i mean all these songs could as well be sang by rihanna, britney, fergie…you name them. really, what happend to music, well pop-music to be more accurate, cos there are still a few amazing artists outhere who actually care about the music and not only about selling records and making money. Even if some songs on this album are fine and will definitely grow on me (and maybe i will turn up the volume if a song of this album is being played in the radio or jam to it in the club), but still i see no artistry, no emotion, no innovation, no depth. maybe i am just to old (20) , but this whole pop-industry is going to the dogs. I mean, yesterday britney spears wone album of the year at the european music awards! i can´t stand this whole marketing shit anymore. Pop-music is dead! period! and they know it! however, i may download that shit. :)

BEYONCE SAID FROM THE BEGINNING THAT HER ALBUM DIDN’T HAVE JUST ONE SOUND. IF YOU LISTENED TO HER INTERVIEWS YOU WOULD KNOW. SOMEONE MENTIONED BEYONCE CURSING ON THIS ALBUM, ERR UH, SHE CURSED ON B DAY TOO, SHE IS AN ADULT.
