And the # 1 Album this Week Is.... Beyonce - I Am...Sasha Fierce + Album Review


1st up Billboard News Reports:

Beyonce scores her third straight No. 1 debut on The Billboard 200 this week as the double-disc "I Am ... Sasha Fierce" (Music World/Columbia) shifts a whopping 482,000 copies in the United States, according to Nielsen SoundScan.
The album, split between material credited to Beyonce and her new alter-ego Sasha Fierce, has already spawned the hits "If I Were a Boy" and "Single Ladies (Put a Ring on It)." Beyonce's 2003 solo debut, "Dangerously in Love," started with 317,000, while 2006's "B-Day" moved 541,000.

My album Review: 4 stars

I wanna say Yes to my baby for her 3rd straight album to debut at # 1 on the billboard top 200. LOL..... Ok now.... lets proceed with the album review. Now everyone and their animals know I love Beyonce`. She is my second wife next to my # 1 wife Brandy. (Yes Brandy) LMAO.... anyway I have to say when I 1st initially heard this album (2 weeks b4 it's release) I was like hmmm OK B I see where your going with this, but wasn't to sure if I was ready to follow lol. So unlike some people that get Cd's, listen to them, and then say they don't like it right after the 1st spin... I listened to it (and not forced myself to listen to it, because if I hated it I would say it LOL), and I was like OK B I'm feeling you. See, I'm so used to the "Crazy in Love" "Deja Vu" type of tracks from her, that I wasn't getting into what she was trying to do on this album. I got the Deluxe Edition, so I got like 5 more bonus tracks on the Cd, and I have to say (even though alot of people hated the Sasha Fierce CD) I like more songs off that disc than the other. All together out of the 15 tracks on my CD I absolutely love 11 of them. Do I think this is her best CD? In my opinion. No. But I'm sure she will do well. She always do..... look at the 1st week sales already. And she will have some hot videos. So anyway some of my immediate favs off the album are "If I Were A Boy" "Halo" "Single Ladies (Put A Ring On It)" "Diva" "Hello" & "Ego."

So did you get the album?

What are your fav tracks?

Do you like the album?

and for the record I think Sasha has been more fierce on some of the other albums than this one. LOL. ;)
But my girl is still hot to death!!!!!!! He He!!! :)

I like the Sasha Fierce portion better than the other half. Maybe because it touches my inner queen; I'm not sure. I bang video phone more than any of the other songs though.

Decent album, still not my fav from her. I'm just ready for some Brandy. I've been bumping Afrodisiac like it just came out.

I bought the deluxe CD and I am happy that I waited until the official release of the CD. Beyonce is an artist and all true artist change their style and at the same time changing your mind from what you expect of them. Yes, it's different,but I like about 10 or ll tracks which makes this a great CD. I will admit that I have a certain order to listen to this CD because too many of the Beyonce songs make me want to slit my wrist......LOL

"Hello" is my favorite song....

well i tried listening 2 the album when i was on my way home but I couldn't get past the 2 radio singles so i just popped it out & threw something else in....but i am in LOVE with "Sweet Dreams" bcz it took a min 2 grow on me & I'm KINDA like'n "Radio" bcz she gets a bit ghetto...but i prefer those unreleased tracks like "Kick Him Out" & "New Shoes".....

deonte' k said...

[jei.lamar]: yes I love "kick him out".... and "sweet dreams" had to grow on me too...... beyonce cd is really nice J lol.... "radio" sounds like danity kanes "damage" to me on one part of the song.

I didnt get the album because too many people where telling me it was weak, despite the fact that I liked all the singles she came out with.

I am going to have to check it out my self.

Peace.

I bougt the Deluxe Edition too and I listened to it in my living room
and I have to admit that I wasn't feeling the first disc with the ballads at all at first..but then I put it on in my car and let it blast while I was driving from my home in Philly to my cousin's house in Deleware. By the time I got to D-ware, I was bumping "Halo","Hello", "Ego", "Single Ladies (put a ring on it)", "If I was a Boy" ,"Broken Hearted Girl" and "Radio" like crazy. So it's growin on me.. (So is Kanye...)
