Album review: “Beyoncé” by Beyoncé

Beyoncé’s self-titled album has sold over 1,301,392 units. “Beyoncé” is the first album to spend three weeks at number one on Billboard 200 Charts since Justin Timberlake’s “The 20/20 Experience.” After her previous album “4,” that played on her virtues of marriage and creating her new life, “Beyoncé” has an adult gloss. The album ranges from promoting motherhood to sex appeal. Nonetheless feminism is portrayed in every song. Reminding the world of her sexy side, Beyoncé is bouncing back better than ever after giving birth to her daughter, Blue Ivy.

Radio hit “Drunk In Love,” has a unique blend of pop, rap, and R&B. Featuring husband, Jay Z, Beyoncé shares the risqué attraction between the couple creating a catchy jam. “Blue” speaks of Beyoncé’s daughter, Blue Ivy and has a youthful loving appeal sharing her transition into motherhood.

“Grown Woman” ties the album together touching on her childhood all the way to fame and fortune. The song embodies her positive female role in society, while keeping edgy.

From the steamy to nurturing, Beyoncé reveals the influential icon she has become.
