That attempt to make Church Girl happen at the beginning of the era, only for it to be getting outstreamed by non viral Plastic Off The Sofa and Virgo's Groove

I Was Here deserves the lashing BTINH gets

Not with this.

 

 

to be honest i dislike BTINH... i have never play that song more like 5 times.... is just an irreplaceable wannabe 

 

Beyoncé´s worst single

These BTINH takes are… yikes especially when you consider it being one of the few songs that saved the 4 era commercially

but are we supposed to take the taste of the 2011 pop landscape into account for how good we should think a song is?

She was served lemons but she made lemonade 

I'm curious if anyone has the streaming stats for 4...which are the most/least streamed songs from the album.

If you get it, you get it

 

 

I love BTINH.  The only track on 4 that seemed underwhelming to me was IWH, but that album as a whole is absolutely solid

Lay Up Under Me better than Schoolin' Life. Surprised?

 

I wonder if we'll ever get to hear the Fela Kuti stuff she made.

I'm really surprised we haven't, yet. 

 

At this point the tracks are probably 13 or more years old though

I kind of wonder if Grown Woman was from those sessions... if not it's certainly inspired by whatever she learnt then.

She really should've made Love on Top the 2nd single.

 

I take anything this man says with a grain of salt but hmmm...

Not at all. It needs a few tweaks but overall, I’ll drink to that!

Hey ladies, is anyone following the Renaissance tour tickets? Is it still at 91% sold or has it progressed since then?

Lay Up Under Me was done so f***ing dirty

Blame Giselle and her sabotage. I still can't believe she not only made it a bonus track, but also removed it from streaming entirely.

Start Over - dated production, but tolerable

I Was Here - horrid song

Rather Die Young - cute

 

They, together with BTINH, are the weakest on 4sus.

Girl, go repent. 

 

Rather Die Young is a masterpiece and it takes quite a certain amount of intelligence to get the genius behind that song. 

 

I hope to hear live.

Aside from I Miss You, all the songs above it have had an official video/Live Video & some form of promo

End of Time still sounds fresh, im sure some of it has held up 

Poor RDY getting so few streams. Life is unfair 

 

I agree that LOT would have made a great second single. Nonetheless it's a shame how badly Pop radio treated that song. 

 

That was the time when Bey did really say "**** you" to radios.
