bu. Posted June 8, 2011 Share Posted June 8, 2011 I adore Run The World . I think people were harsh on it and expected something else. It doesn't fit the album at all though. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Miss Enjoi Posted June 8, 2011 Share Posted June 8, 2011 I don't think this album is going to be as big of a success as her previous. I'd be shocked if she even got a #1. It'll be interesting to see how this era plays out. I love her for taking a chance and going against the formula. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Miss Enjoi Posted June 8, 2011 Share Posted June 8, 2011 no it's not.. not even a top 20 single she barely got top 30... oh deah I don't think she even cares at this point. The new Beyonce might be focused on artistic merit more than commercial success. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Doesn't matter what she wants... her record company isn't gonna make money off artistic merit from their largest artist 2) there's nothing artistic on this album Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If I aint got nothing, I got you If I aint got something I don't give a damn, cause I got it with you I don't know much about algebra, but I know one plus one equals two And it's me and you, thats all we'll have when the world is thru sooooo DEEEEEEP and Artistic.. i wonder what it means :tear: :lmao: you people don't know what deep & artistic is if you think Beyonce has an ounce of it in her Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Artistically speaking I'd say it's one of the strongest songs she's ever done. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If Sony drops her - she'll do just fine. She's not Ciara. I'm not here for the opinions Check the "official reviews." Not Pookie and Ray Ray's comments on some Dat Orange Juice blog.

Rock & Roll Hall of Game Posted June 8, 2011 Share Posted June 8, 2011 Lyrics have to be cryptic and mysterious to pass as artistic? no.. but that line right there kills any [alleged] "artistic sound" she was going for with that song Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Reminds me of something they'd sing about back in the day. i would have loved to be in the studio when she recorded that God yes, that guitar with her vocal brings the energy way up.

janetDAYZ Posted June 8, 2011 Share Posted June 8, 2011 I dont see the big deal about that song. Maybe I need to listen again. I will say I commend her for tryna be a lil more edgy. Even tho she wont get the numbers its worth it because there has been some sort of artistic growth,whether one likes the new direction or not.

Laveaux Posted June 8, 2011 Share Posted June 8, 2011 that song is my shit, but then she couldnt have made a video like Run The World. I still believe she released 'Run The World' just so she could make a video for it and perform it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Consumers don't want to hear something NEW from the 90s, 80s, 70s... and sup with one of the song being 2 minutes long Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
