Beyonce ft. Jay-Z – Upgrade U (mp3)

Exactly what I expected it to sound like. A song about…upgrading each other…yay!! Seriously, Beyonce’s album is shaping up to be a disaster. By that, I don’t mean that it won’t sell a million copies the first few months. The six songs I’ve heard so far divulge a lack of direction. Picture in-and-out studio sessions…

    This Beyonce song is the bomb. if you think differently then you know nothing about music. Just because you don’t understand pure art does not mean that it sucks.

    I like the song too. You all must purposely don’t like them. The album actually just got a lot of good reviews, even an excellent one.

    B should just scrath B Day, do a collab album with Jay. Get her shit together and drop a respectful album.

    I didnt know have an opinion classified me as a hater. If you think these songs are good, then obviously you have different taste in music. I’d much rather here Beyonce sing songs like “Me, Myself, and I” over these GARBAGE tracks with no difficult ranges and flat sounding notes. I’d much rather here an R&B album from B, then this POP album in the making. Well enough explained?

    why do people defend beyonce so blindly? It’s like she can’t do no wrong in some people’s eyes.

    Rizoh, why don’t you just use a file hosting site like Rapidshare or Z-share so you don’t have to keep re-upping the link?

    what you ain’t gonna re-up playa?

    It’s the same argument i was having with someone the other day. you can’t cover all bases, be it pop, soul, whatever. the product will suffer. bad example but look what happened to fat joe’s last joint.

    the fickle audience gets a share of the blame though
