^ Sounded like the 2011 version of "Lose My Breath"... it's alright but it's not something that's as groundbreaking as her producers makes it out to be. shrug

Correction: it was her producers who say she created her "Thriller". lol

To quote myself from the other thread:

BlaqueKnight said:

She's too old to be singing shit like this.

Someone needs to tell her to GROW UP. Jay needs to have a long hard conversation with his wife.

and Swizz needs to learn to lay off the snare drums a bit. I KNOW this has to be a Swizz Beats track. It sounds like most of his other shit. He should have abandoned this sounds after he did Eve's "Tambourine".

I don't know about this. She needs to really come with it and chill with these anthem-type songs.

She's trying to start another ladies anthem like she did with "Single ladies", kinda sad, Beyonce has been on a downfall after B day, as for the song itself its annoying as hell, it contains a sample of Major Lazer’s “Pon De Floor” which dropped in 2009, I think its unorginal and lacks creativity, its like all she seems to care about is mainstream and chart status. What happened to the Michael Jackson 80's insipired sound that she was going for?. smh. I just hope the album is something different than this but i doubt it.

I agree,the song is garbage.

"Crazy In Love" was a decent song."Deja Vu" was a a decent song.This new song is shit.

Whatever happened to melody and solid songwriting? Most of Beyonce's songs are beat-driven and tuneless with no real melody to speak of.

That's funny. I just told someone last night that this song could literally give people headaches. I'm sure the video will have people trying to recreate the dancing craze that Single Ladies did.

Aside from the many things I could complain about with the track, my first question would be why ANOTHER so-called "anthem"? How many do you need? confused So much for boldness and exploring new sounds. This song is still very safe for her, in spite of EVERYTHING that's going on in it. As we know, most popular recording acts just want to remain popular without taking an artistic risk and making an impression that's lasting. "The hell with maximizing my potential, I'm trying to sell records," that kind of attitude toward music is disappointing. Like James used to say, they just "Talkin loud, but ain't sayin nothing."

We'll see what else she has to offer. I won't be holding my breath though.... I can wait.

Neither could I. And though I listened to about one minute, it felt like nineteen. At least.

this sucks and its ghetto... lol it sounds like a DC reject demo

that is why beyonce will NEVER be a legend.

she tries so hard, and have to over compensate for her mediocre singing and dancing skills,

if she could at least write and had decent music, she could be a legend... she definitely knows how to entertain..
