Beyoncé has penned a letter to her fans to talk about her new album, due out November 18th. While the LP is shrouded in mystery — we only know that Justin Timberlake will appear and two of the singles are called “If I Were a Boy” and “Single Ladies” — Mrs. Jay-Z tells fans, “My music will explain it all. I have worked on this album for close to one year. I have taken the time so I can create my sound. Something that says who I am at this stage in my life. I have poured my heart and soul into it. It is my baby.”

Beyoncé admits she spent more time working on this album than any other in her career.
“I have recorded over 70 songs and have created a sound that reveals all of me. I am in a different place right now, and I wanted people to see the many sides of me,” she adds. “The music is upbeat for the dance, fun side, and it is reflective, passionate and serious for the personal side. I have taken risks here.” The aforementioned singles will hit radio October 7th.

Beyonce’ is not a godess, she is the saviour of all that is good in the entertainment industry, she is classic, multitalented and beautiful.
you know the sales of this new record are going to once again put a lot of other established artists to shame.
ive already saved up for tickets to her tour.

Just because people appreciate good artists and supports them does not make them worship them. I think most of us understand that they are human stupid ass! Stop hating you are probably a Ashanti fan!

Beyonce = Talentless, Classless, garbage. B.c. Jean originally wrote and sang if i were a boy. So Beyonce says she’s written 70 songs. She meant 69. How bad can you be that your stealing songs to sell records. Stealing entire songs not jus part. And BC Jean did it better. Before i get beside myself, Beyonce your trash garbage…. Make your own music stop stealing, you gets no love you suck

I am very dissapointed that there is now a tarnish on her image your association is all that you have and that has to be selected by wise choice

Wow- “King” and “The truth” seemed to come off as HATERS. Anyone who looks past B’s talent is just that- a hater. She can sing and dance and has proven that she can act- she is a beautiful person- and it’s really not worship if you give someone there props. Congradulations Beyonce’ girl- do your thing- and to all of those that have anything negative to say about B-HI HATERS!

why do beyonce keep giving herself all the writing credits for every song she sings??? you got on stage in japan and said you wrote irreplaceble for all the ladies blah blah blah. neyo had to get on tv and say he wrote it, then you want to get on the awards show and thank him all of a sudden. girl you good, but give credit to where credit is do and stop trying to take it all!!! give the props to the real writers, you know you and yo daddy paid for that song! i still like it though ;)

They are all human but they are rich humans and for people thats attracted to money will say she is a goddess. We don’t know her and she really don’t give a damn about us. Thats why I bootlegg all the time and I’m proud of it. I don’t like the fact she is trying not to be wild and she really is. As far as dancing go (she sucks) but I do agree she can sing well enough. If you put some of the greatest dancers right now like Janet, Ciara, Mya or even Male entertainers, she can’t compete. I am a dancer and I know what mirror dancing is and thats what Beyonce does. She do it good but its not talent at all if you put her and ciara to do the same dance step it would look competely different. Beyonce your a nice looking girl with a nice body and a cool voice. I’m not a hater the only thing she has that I want is Money and I’m not to turned on by her performances anymore. I think its time Beyonce or Sasha grow up just a little and be more creative.

FA Hayek said a free society will glorify mediocrity. This is a good thing, people get what they want and deserve.
Beyonce is a perfect example of this; she is amazingly mediocre performer and human being. Listen to her “short bus”interviews. Sasha Fierce!? What a dumbass, no way her IQ is over double digits.
It‘s always amusing when a black women can’t dance. Dancing isn’t a birthright. She’s all doing some bow legged jerky stuff that we laugh at white people for.

Can she play a single note on any instrument? Does her training and education consist of shopping?

“You shoulda put a ring on it.” [Insert bow legged stiff over choreographed moves that makes line dancers look funky.]

The product of a free society but I declare my right to be embarrassed.

Plus they CGIed her ass in that video
