Beyonce

By: S6 Staff - lz.

For Beyonce's second solo album, she went back to a focus on female empowerment. This is evident with such hits as "Irreplaceable" and "Ring The Alarm." This album has proved to be a huge success and Beyonce is currently topping iTunes with her single "Irreplaceable." Even though knowles said this album was reasonably "easy to make," it has surely paid as a terrific sophomore album packed with hits and ballads.

Recommendations:
"Deja Vu" - Rhe first single off her newest album, "Deja Vu" proves to be a hit with a cool message. It's no "crazy in love," but it held its ground and quickly became an mtv favorite. Beyonce sings about how infactuated she is with this guy, while dancing around in a funky manner in the video. "Deja Vu" is a great song and a great way to kick off "B'day."

"Ring The Alarm" - The beat is killer and the lyrics let us all know beyonce means business. The song is strong and knowles proves, once again, that she can dish out the hits. The sample of the actual alarm in the background sets up the song perfectly.

"Get Me Bodied" - This is going to be a hit at the clubs. The beat is infectious and Beyonce singing "get me bodied" makes you want to get on the dancefloor. It's a great song with tons of energy. Beyonce pulls it off wonderfully.
