4 is obviously better than B'day wtf 

I prefer 4 to bday. Bday has some great individual tracks but I would rather listen to 4 in full

Bday > 4

 

Like, the nerve.

like I don't get the Hive's need to complain about things Beyoncé didn't even do...that are just possibilities that even if real have been clearly corrected. it's like getting mad at her for not liking one of the stage design sketches you saw in the RWT film...kinda a pointless exercise of complaint when the actual reality is that Beyoncé factually has a different title.

I mean jeez!

 

Bday standard edition is almost skipless.... 4 could never say the same.

Start Over & RWT(G) would say otherwise!

 

 

BDay standard IS skipless. She would take the production and vocal layering to another level nowadays, but the 10 tracks are really good.

B'day is great and upbeat, but it is so poorly mixed it always feels like I'm listening to it on skull candy headphones

I'll be willing to re-open this investigation if she releases dolby atmos versions. 

 

Also dance for you alone clears all of B'day

! even though on the occasion i skip irreplaceable I agree!

Now I'd like to think that B'day sounding a little louder than all her other albums is part of its lore and charm!

y'all not seeing a problem with an album titled BEYINCÉ when she already has an album titled BEYONCÉ is deeply concerning btw

Right?? Like Bey makes a lot of questionable choices ignoring marketing 101 but naming your new album BEYINCÉ while you already have one called BEYONCÉ would be a remarkable BAD decision, even for her.

 

Guarantee, that name was never in contention.

Start over slander in 2024? Grow up! 

no comment on the other one

The 4 and B'Day division in here

 

4 is so much better! But she has no bad album, period.

the loud and weird mix is the appeal

Start Over and Run The World (Girls) are literal CAREER highlights

4 and BDay are both great albums. 

 

IASF is the one we should be worried about.

It actually just comes down to this, the quality of her (solo) work just increased over the years:

Her albums in terms of quality: 2020s (even though we just have one so far) > 2010s > 2000s

And thats it.

4 and B'day at least share common ground in one way

Both have their tracklist flow ruined by the deluxe editions 

im gonna duck for this. IASF kinda sucks but

 

Radio > all of 4 except two songs

IASF will always be her weakest for me. It's not bad but it's certainly aged in a way that I don't connect with it in 2024. I do recognize it's importance for her commercially though. 

Bday is skipless. Dangerously in Love and BEYONCÉ are skipless until you get to track 13. 
 

IASF… well… 😆

ikfyl heaven is good, blue is kinda skip worthy.

4 and B'day are the first albums she made without the direction of her father. There's a reason why they're her two best albums

Blue is top 3 on the album, don't piss me off!
