Is it me, or is Beyonce a lil' bit too old to be singing that song?? The lyrics sound like they were written by a teenager.

i thought that belly dance was excellent.

i thought it was horrible. beyonce cannot dance. she put so much force in the belly dance i thought she was going to break something, definitely not cute. bellydancing is about being sensual and smooth and she was all jerky. disbelief sometimes there are more forceful moves in bellydancing but it certainly is not the violent dance that beyonce made it out to be. whenever beyonce dances i cringe and then have nightmares. shake

agreed, dancing is sooooo much more sensual, you ( if dancing properly) can stand there and just do a figure eight or something and be magnetic, electric on fire, you do not have to move all the ways she did to say to her audience that she knows how to dance or that thing she did with kelly in the soldier video at the end ( what was that)

I just saw the video for Check on it. What was with all the costume changes, she has to again show her audience that she can "do it all" have the classy look, dress, ahir up, makeup done well, the hip-hop look with da hair and shades, the im innocent, marilyn monroe look in the pink/gray sweater, the short skirt-showing her legs look.

i get all da pink cause its 4 da movie but.....she has once stated in 2001 i think, during Charlies Angels time, that she wants 2 b a classy lady, she knows what 2 do and what not to do, that they will not do childish things, they act like respectable ladies, with the hell is she doing now, performing in horrible "french" and showing her black panties in the Cater 2 u performance etc, classy my behind!



Again what?

Don't get me wrong I like the song "Check On It" a lot, but it still doesn't take away from the fact that its a Destiny Child song, not the song of a person who broke up a group to strike out on her own.

When I first heard "Check On It" I was thrilled. Once I found out it was a solo track by Beyonce my interest diminished. It's a classic DC3 track. The production is a slight hint to the jittery heyday of "Writing's On The Wall". The I'm-all-that-have-me-on-my-terms teasiness is there. Even the breathless, catch-my-breath-I-dare-you-to-try-and-sing-me chorus is there.

Ooh boy you lookin like you like
What you see
Won't you come over and Check up on it
Watch him while he work up on it
Ladies let him check up on it
Watch him while he work up on it
Dip it, pop it, twerk it, stop it
Check on me tonight

This cumbersome exchange is rattled off in ten seconds or less. "Dip it, pop it, twerk it, stop it"? A line obviously meant for DC3 to demand submission from their suitor.

Beyonce looks lonely in the video without the girls. She tried to be cartoony with the pink wig (Beyonce has never been one to practice restraint, always succeeding in taking an idea too far. *The "Baby Boy" belly dance. The "Naughty Girl" Champaign glass*) but without Kelly in an electric blue one and Michelle in a mint green one again she looks lost in this video.

I just don't see the point in breaking up one of the more enjoyable groups of the past 5-6 years only to put out material that sounds just like said group unless its strictly for the money. And lets face it, endorsement-happy Beyonce is not strapped for cash. With a debut album I hardly spin anymore and a single that sounds JUST like DC3, I wonder about Beyonces future as a solo artist.


I am soooo sick of this song, I can't listen to it anymore. Makes me want to projectile vomit. barf
RIP, mom. I will forever miss and love you.
