Happy Birthday to Beyoncé Knowles (Carter)!!! Looks like our girl B turns 27 today so I gathered my inspiration for this week's 5 Songs from B and her family, friends and husband significant others. Check mine out and feel free to list yours as well.
5. Beyoncé "Flaws and All"
B in her not-so-perfect, very silly, bare bones honest best. A classic portrait for a classic star.
4. Destiny's Child "Soldier"
Before this video I'd never have imagined that walking a Doberman in hot pants and a fedora could look so damn fly.
3. Beyoncé "Naughty Girl"
Forget all that Giselle business, Sexy is B's REAL middle name!
2. Beyoncé "Get Me Bodied"
As if those curves aren't motivation enough, this song is all you need when you're in the gym to get your body into high gear. Gotta love that the gang all made it to the video for some of the craziest dances you've never seen before in the club. Snap for the kids!
1. Upgrade U ft. Jay-Z
Let's be real about it, the moment she appeared at his side, it's been a damn good look for Hov. When it comes to His and Hers these two have the premium on Hustle.
Bonus Cuts:
Kelly Rowland "Like This"
Last summer's ladies anthem… Kelly stepped out of B's shadow for a hot second to serve it up hot, just like a good Destiny's Child would.
Solange "I Decided"
Obviously "a little different" from big sis Beyoncé, and while she's still a long way from doing B level numbers or making nice with the press, Solange has proven herself a force to be reckoned with. Just ask Fox News.
[Editor's Note: The views of this blog do not necessarily reflect those of SOHH.com]
Solange is so f*ckin wack, and can't hold a tune for shit. Britney Spears is the perfect example of how you can big the biggest female popstar, sell millions or records, but can't sing for shit. Solange is being managed by her fater, who is smart and very well respected. Only thing is the marketing of Solange. She could go gold. But she is still trash.
The whole Destiny Child Clan is wack. Bring back real music. Let these people sing over keyboard tracks in their spare time.
Give me Kelly Price or Tamia, Pattie, Stephanie Mills, Anita Baker, Faith Evans; something meaningful.
Beyonce is hot, can't take that from her, but Destiny Child = Beyonce, Solange = disaster (Check her first week sales) She ain't going gold. Kelly Rowland = Nothing without Beyonce. Michelle = successful in gospel.
There aren't many real singers out these days putting out classic hits.
I HATE BEYONCE I WISH SHE WOULD JUST GO AWAY AND NEVER COME BACK. THE WORLD DOESN'T NEED ANYMORE OF HER CRAPPY MUSIC. WE HAVE RIHANNA ANYWAYS WITH HER AMAZING SINGING VOICE AND AMAZING MUSIC. AND BRITNEY SPEARS DOES HAVE TALENT AND YES SHE CAN SING.
Those the top 5 songs you can't get out ya head? I've had the same songs in my head since them shits came out! 5. 2pac "me against the world"...4. Raekwon "incarcerated scarfaces"...3. Mobb Deep "Survival of the fittest"...2. Nas "Memory Lane" and...1. Rakim "Follow the Leader. Im honestly suprised Beyonce still relevant like that, considering she been on the damn scene non stop since she came out. Niggas usually get tired of each other after a couple years. Solange is aight, but she always gonna play second fiddle to Beyonce. Shit I know Ray-J tight his sister back. Guess its back to home made pornos for THAT nigga!
