Beyonce- 4 Review

So as many of you may know, King Beyonce has released her fourth studio album titled "4". Beyonce has taken a hiatus from music and has taken more control of her life by letting go of her father/manager Matthew Knowles, and trying to reinvent her brand. If you are on the internet as much as I am you would also know that her album was leaked. Like some of the stans, I took a listen to what material the King had. " Girls" was a booming single. At first listen, I did not like it but however it seems when videos come out, the song sky rockets to number 1. "Girls" was no different. It did not help that I am a dancer. So this song makes me feel all bubbly inside. "1+1" which I heard her sing live, caught me from day one. I was actually singing it when Carly walked through the door. Dramatics and all, she asked me to sing a different song. I love that song and passionate about it. Now on to these other songs...Ummmm. I was not impressed with some of the material that was on her album. I know you are thinking " Who the hell are you?" but I feel that as a consumer I can voice what I took away from experiencing the King.

Notable songs (in my opinion)
I Care- Rock & Roll Feel
Best I Never Had- Anthem of making the best decision of losing a counterpart
Party- song for party animals with a smooth groove (Carly only likes this song)
BEYONCE - PARTY ft Andre3000 [SPEEDED UP] by TAUReanFilez.blogspot.com
Rather Die Young- sounds like a Earth, Wind and Fire sample
Start Over- readjusting feelings/behaviors when in love
Countdown- LOVE THIS SONG!!! The arrangements are incredible. A lot is going on.
End of Time- LOVE THIS SONG!!! This song sounds like a Gloria Estefan track. Carly says it sounds like "Girls".

In no way shape or form, am I going to dive into my dislikes for this album. I think other people have that one. If you heard the album, what did you think?
