While basking in the release of a new movie, "Dreamgirls" this december, Golden girl Beyonce prepares for the release of her sophmore effort "B'Day" this september. Holding tons of funky horns, loud riffs and sassy lyrics, "B'Day" is shaping up to be this years' hottest fall release with production from heavy-hitters The Neptunes, Rich Harrison, Darkchild & Swizz Beatz. The Lead single "Deja Vu," being rush released due to airplay in Houston, L.a., and New York is turning out to be a radio burner with it's soaring trumpets, thumping bassline and simple yet catchy lyrics from Beyonce. With tracks like "Ring The Alarm," she belts out pure seduction on layers of sirens over a bass-heavy beat. "Freedom Dress" can easily be "Crazy In Love pt. II" with it's cowbells and the club feel of the track. On tracks like, "Give It To Momma," she demands her respect and gets what she wants over a pure funky beat, think cowbells, congos, bongos and chants like "the infamous uh-oh". There's also collaborations from her boyfriend, rapper/beau Jay-z on songs like first single, "Deja Vu" and also a track penned and co-produced by writer Sean Garrett with Swizz Beats, "Hottest Chick In The Game" tells the world just who Beyonce is, or shall I say "Sasha". In fact, Beyonce's sophmore effort is all about demanding respect as a female and the teachings of working what you've got! Spoiler? Yeah right. |
