Josh Posted April 25 Share Posted April 25 This is better than I Am...Filler. Also Irreplaceable, Beautiful Liar are some of her signature singles and much better than the popular annoying ones like Halo & Single Ladies 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bielneira Posted April 25 Share Posted April 25 It's decent, and definitely better than 'I Am...Sasha Fierce' and 'Dangerously In Love'. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

rebeltwat Posted April 25 Share Posted April 25 It just didn't perform as well as her 1st and 3rd albums so the GP ignores it. It's quite coveted within the Hive. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jay07 Posted April 25 Share Posted April 25 I don't know, it's bops on bops. In fact I was thinking that I wish she made an album of simple bops like this again. I love the music she makes now but sometimes it's too heavy to just put on. 8 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It's a carefree album compared to her others 8 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Fleahive Posted April 25 Share Posted April 25 As her music has become more meaningful her nonsense lyric bangers are viewed as less than desirable by critics and fans that prefer a deep "body of work". Also Dangerously In Love is better but y'all still like to pretend it's not cause you can't handle solid R&B. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Fleahive Posted April 25 Share Posted April 25 Just now, Josh said: Beyond the singles what's there to like about the album? It's boring and clearly a product of the 2000's Relisten to Speechless & Yes and come back to me. If you're not into slow R&B jams with a strong vocal finish then you won't like it but those songs are career HIGHLIGHTS. Signs I used to hate but it became a trend on tiktok at some point and now I love it. Dangerously In Love is still to this date her best ballad. The 4 singles are a STOMP The Closer I Get To You is a cute duet with an absolute LEGEND. That leaves Hip Hop Star, Zaddy, & Thats How You Like It. These range from meh to cringe but they're not unlistenable except Zaddy I guess. B'day is great but track for track loses every time except against the 3 skippable songs I mentioned.

Fleahive Posted April 25 Share Posted April 25 Oh and the mixing on this album is terrible. At least on spotify. Sounds like it was recorded with a cheap microphone in a shady studio. The bass isn't bassing like it should be either. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

teresaguidice Posted April 25 Share Posted April 25 its kinda her best album, maybe second to 4. apart from the few cynical hit chasing moments (beautiful liar, irreplaceable, deja vu copy pasting crazy in love, 4 has similar weak moments), its tight, has a strong musical POV/identity, and aged well. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
chaklux Posted April 25 Share Posted April 25 Dangerously in love was her iconic debut and has the signature hit crazy in love, I am Sasha fierce, though pales in comparison but was her commercial peak , 4 was the beginning of her quality over charts journey. B'day tend to get lost in all of this because it has no significant impact in Beyonce story compare to others . Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Carla Rosón Posted April 25 Share Posted April 25 Bffr it's far from underrated. If anything, some of the most annoying hive members and casual fans overhype it to the heavens. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
