B.E.T. You Haven’t Heard This: Beyonce
October 8th, 2008
One down, one to go…. So I completely forgot shorty doo wop was dropping her single(s) today, but luckily, I have people in high places (REKA WHAD UP) to smack me on the back of the head when I occasionally slip up on an important occurrence, such as this. Mrs. Carter let loose both of her official offerings to the public today, and so far the responses have been on both sides.
Some like em, others hate em. Me, personally, I wasn’t expecting this (”If I Were A Boy”), at all, but I do find myself head nodding to “Single Ladies” (Big Ups To YBF for the assist) which was produced by Tricky Stewart and The Dream. Sidebar: A little birdie just informed that they may push the album back from its November 18 release date. Do I smell a Husband and Wife showdown?? Stay tuned….
Beyonce- Single Ladies (Produced By Tricky Stewart and The Dream)

Beyonce is very talented, however I was definitely not feeling neither song. It’s different from anything I’ve heard Beyonce put out, but maybe that was the point. But really I did not like, it did not sound great, well the voice did anyway. I hope the album will be great and that those are the only songs that I don’t like.
both of those songs were stupid and annoying she need 2 call NEYO to give her a hit
I like Beyonce, but these two songs are not her best piece of work. I know we can’t expect her to deliver the same beats as “Crazy in Love” or “De ju Vu”. But I did however expect her to come straight out of the oven smokin’ on this project. I guess we will just have to wait and see.
I liked Single ladies. I did not like the Boy song. But i know Bey has some other nice songs on her cd. So I will buy it.
at first i thought this was goin to be really good but i didnt like it at allll
i think both of dem are hits…one is meant 2 bhurd in da club or while ur kickn it… if i were a boy is gonna be her biggest hit 2 date! its a colorless and ageless song!!! on top of dat its a smash! im a guy and i done heard my girl say those same words 2 me! kind of crazy,but i know a hit when i hear 1!
I am a HUGE Beyonce fan and I must say, I do not like either song. Maybe next time.
Not feeling it. Definitely not a “good look’”. The first sounds similar to that of a typical “country” song. The 2nd, could possibly grow on me, but neither were so astounding that I already have it in my mind to purchase it on the day it drops.
Beyonce I didn’t really understand this new song,maybe I have to see the video first to get an idea of what you are saying.

Single Ladies that song is poppin, just keep up the good work.
GIRL I DONT LIKE IT YOU SOUND LIKE A HILLBILLY…..A HOT MESS “IF I WAS A BOY” NOT LIKE YOU GIRL YOU SLIPPING!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Beyonce is my girl, but i’ll be real. I think Single Ladies kind of remind me of Get Me Bodied in some ways (i love that song). If I Were a Boy is different its kind of a country, pop, and r n b mix, but I can feel it. I’ll give it an 8.5 with a potential of becoming a 10 the more it plays. All and all, love you B keep doing ur thing.
Sorry Bey – I don’t like neither song. Beyonce need to sit down and go have some dam babies. She is talented but these songs – what the??????
i love the way you sing. I am your biggest fan in the whole wide world, and sometimes i act like you, and pretend i`m famous. your a huge role model to me. (:
I agree with lap!!!
I think both songs are average at best. “Single Ladies” sounds like a recycled version of “Check On It” and “Get Me Bodied”. I will give her credit for doing something different on “If I were a boy”, but honestly neither song is all that strong. I think she is an incredible artist but neither song is her best work.
i guess im not listening to same the songs everyone else is listening to but ”if i were a boy” sounds like a reject “like a boy” and “single ladies” sounds exactly like “get me bodied”.. i guess we r in for another crappy b-day album…
Ya cant compare Rhianna and Ciara, there not on the same Level as B….. Stay in ya lane Haters…Big ups Mrs. Carter
I must say Mrs. Carter is doing her thing…Both tracks are crazy…can’t wait to her Single Ladis in the club…Wit every CD she becomes stronger and better…a legend in the making…
“If I Were A Boy” was originally written, produced and song by a white girl named BC Jean. Let get that straight before Mrs. B starts telling lies about how she wrote and arranged the song. She will do anything to get attention and credit. But she is getting ready to be forced down our throats again and this time around it may be too much.
