According to DigitalSpy in the UK, Beyonce is rumored to be changing the direction of her upcoming album, too bad she hasnt changed the date to Spring 2011 (i figure by then i'll be able to stomach seeing her ALL OVER the TV ...maybe). The new album was once said it would be heavily produced by Timbaland, but i guess Beyonce womp womped that idea for something more "International sound" compared to her R&B influenced last 2 albums...Heres whats to be expected...
"It will rival anything the likes of Britney and Rihanna have done recently. Beyoncé and her team can see where mistakes were made on the last album."It was very American, very R'n'B and stripped back. They want to go for a more international sound this time."
Now heres my 2 cents on what went down...Beyonce took a listen to Britney's new album over the past week and had a conversation with management, dont quote me on this but im pretty sure it went alil something like this...
Beyonce: "This album is CRAZY, is it mine?..."
Management: "uhhh, huh?"
Beyonce: "What? this album is hot, which means it has to be mine right? i mean, we ALL kno it aint Kelly's"
Management: "Beyonce...thats Britney Spears New cd, not yours"
Beyonce: "..."
Now again, i could be wrong..but i think the remainder of the conversation went alil somethin

Personally i feel this is a SMART move on Beyonces behalf...her first album was FORGETTABLE to say the least and had very few highlights aside from "Crazy In Love" (now be honest, whens the last time u were bumpin Dangerously in love? see) and B'day showed she cant luck up on another Crazy In Love. Beyonce has a better chance of being a Gay Icon than ever being a Mariah Carey or a Mary J Blige, in the long run (I kno i ride Marys bra straps and im a big Mariah fan, BUT they are arguably legends in the game and after 15 years PLUS they continue to BREAK RECORDS). Sure Beyonces hot as fish grease NOW and u may not be able to see her being irrelevant in the near future, but look at Brandy...in the never say never days did u honestly believe in a matter of years Brandy would have to Off someone on the 101 to get a headline in the news? Think back only 4 years ago, Beyonce was MUCH MUCH hotter then..the candle is dwindling FAST and she needs to make moves that will solidify her future in this music game, and i believe this is a good move to do that...

You know, I think I may be the only person in the world who LOVED b'day... Of course, I've loved every Beyonce or Destiny's Child album and I'm much more partial to slow love songs than the more upbeat dance songs, but that's not really the point is it? :)
Nice blog.
Damn that was on point! They had this topic on another blog and it turned into alicia,jill,india versus beyonce.
I agree B needs to do something that will give her a future. To me she makes hear today gone tommorrow music. I don't even know where my Dangerously CD is and I'm not interested in looking for it. BDay is only good while I'm getting dressed to go to a club which isn't often. I don't know about this whole international sound. I'm interested in some soul from Bey. I'll wait and see. Damn it would be nice if she waited until 2011 make me miss you please!
spontaneous uve basically summed it up...here today, gone tomorrow music...U get it lol...and Big momma i actually did like Bday myself lol..but after awhile of listening to it u actually get that "ok im good" feeling lol..atleast i do
