Welcome Beyonce to your first post! Which is strange as I am a massive fan of Beyonce, seen her live, love her albums and general all round fan, so when I first heard "Who Run The World (Girls)" I have to say I was not impressed, and as time has gone on I still don't like it, but the good thing about Beyonce is she releases an album with a song for everyone, she does ghetto, she does rap, she does R&B, dance, POP, Hip Hop the lot.. so "Best Thing I Never Had" falls into the "Halo/Irreplaceable" mould but it is amazing, the video reminds me of Leona Lewis' "Happy" only for the reason it is wedding themed I suppose.
Although Beyonce' newest album "4" is not my favourite of her albums, it's still worth a purchase and I have discovered a good chill out album and there are a few more singles on this record.
Beyonce is an icon, and will be around a long long time so she can release what she likes and it will be a hit, because she is the whole package, performance wise, Beyonce is one of a select few that can nail an almighty performance/show every time whilst singing 100% live.
I love this lady, she is a powerhouse and has worked with everyone in the music industry from Jay Z, Lady Gaga, Shakira, Sean Paul & Missy Elliot among many more . I think it was always inevitable that she was going to be the biggest entity from Destiny's Child. Long may Beyonce reign supreme.
I would never of put these two together at all, but it sort of works, once again Shakira is back with another wacky tune, this time with the help of brit Dizzee Rascal who would seem to of had the Midas touch for hits the past 18 months. So does Loca work? I think so.. on the fence at the moment, I think it will grow on me like so many other hits of Shakira, having only listened to this a handful of times I am still unsure, but Dizzee adds his usual charm to the song making it extra special. The video lives up to the the title of the song, Loca sees Shakira skating around Barcelona and gyrating in a gold bikini! What is not to like, well you decide..
