Beyonce has worked the enterprise of divahood. She SINGS big. She "acts" OK, too. I even dig her speaking voice...

I disagree with her fashion choices, as well as *cough-cough* her taste in men (Dear B, ) -- but stuffiness and jealousy aside, I'm proud of her work ethic and where she's gone with it.

I hope we get to see her graduate from the tackiness into something classy, though. We don't get to see much of that in the black superstar world.

IMO, Janet Jackson on her worst day is ten times better than Beyonce on her best.

Hell Yea

No. I bought her album based on the single Crazy In Love..
Huge dissapointment!

badujunkie said:

lol...wow.

Her voice was all over the first cds that came out. Michelle and Kelly just sang
pretty much nothing. She got so much flack for doing that when Destiny Fullfilled came out, you could hear more of Michelles and Kellys voices. She doesn't have the best voice in the group. Kelly should be the leader because she has the best voice.

Sorry, Kelly does not. If Kelly was the leader, it would have been another Mokenstef,Brownstone, After Dark, etc.

Beyonce was not all over the first cds because she wanted to be. Producers & her label wanted her to be the lead singer because they felt she had the best voice & was most marketable. Even ppl from the label admitted that in one of those specials I saw chronicling their careers. The reason why she even became vocal producer was that so the other girls could be heard.

Hi everyone,

I like Beyonce. She can really sing. I don't care too much for her songs lyrics though but if she was given a really good seriously well thought out song It will do her justice instead of singing bootylicious type of songs allof the time. Crazy in love was a good song. Her solo cd was alot better than her stuff with Destiny's child. More mature vibe. Destiny Fulfilled supposedly is a mature sounding CD too.

I read that she is a good girl who is very thankful and humble for her blessings.However,
if Beyonce appears to be egotistically self absorb than please
blame her father manager and owner Mathew Knowles. Who deliberately went out of his way to overexposed his daughter. He has a degree in marketing/business and I must say he has put it to the test. It worked. Yet at the same time it has kind of back fired. Many people are tired of Beyonce's over exposure.They want Beyonce to do what Prince and Janet Jackson do alot ofwhich is take a break,get out ofthe spotlight for a while then come back with something refreshing.

those wigs she wears are horrible

Yes, she got the most attention because of her voice.

TRUE I'm impatient, I should have given those heffas some time to grow up I was like, "Destiny's WHO?" I just can't sing along w/ bullshit like "Bootylicious" & "Can you pay my bills"

But those broads got me this time. I like at least 4 songs off the Fulfilled album, even that ignant Soldier bullshit And Dangerously In Love is a great song
