Beyonce i am sasha fierce album pictures
The strength of I Am…Sasha Fierce, then, is its individual songs-not good enough to make for an album that’s greater than the sum of its parts, but a testament to Beyoncé as one of today’s most reliable singles artists. This problem would be negligible, particularly in the age of iTunes, if it weren’t clear that Beyoncé intended to make an Album and wants it to be consumed as such. It’s a momentum-murdering formula that makes for not only a disjointed listening experience but, with the slow songs presented first, an incoherent narrative. The album’s songs are divided into two parts, ballads of a purported personal nature on the first disc and more aggressive club tracks attributed to the singer’s newly christened doppelganger on the second. She is an icon and many will appreciate her new album.The biggest problem with Beyoncé’s third solo effort is evident right in its title, I Am…Sasha Fierce, which aims for both the alter-ego branding of The Emancipation of Mimi and the structural duality of FutureSex/LoveSounds but just winds up coming off even sillier than Garth Brooks in…The Life of Chris Gaines. I can see why she's released 'I Am.Sasha Fierce' as two discs to show two different sides to her although it can't be put in the category of other double albums in her genre like 'Songs In The Key Of Life' for example however she is in the same musical royalty as Stevie and still has more to give. She's showing her sophistication on Disc 1 and shows she's still got it on Disc 2. Three albums on and it seems she's exploring a bit more rather than an all out assault to prove herself.
Overall it is quality as you'd expect from Beyonce. Disc 2 reminds me more of 'Dangerously In Love'. The first being very classical, serene and personal as Disc 2 is more up tempo, sexually charged and experimental. 'Halo' is a very sensitive and classic track on the same tip as Alicia Keys. It's a good indication of the album as we'd expect maturity,Įxperimentation with songs and expression on a third album that we see on 'I Am.Sasha Fierce'. 'If I Were A Boy' is the first track on the album that went to number 1 in the UK singles chart. It's certainly a personal album with the obvious touches of 'diva' stardom that we expect from her like the recently released single ' Single Ladies (Put A Ring On It)'. 'I Am.Sasha Fierce' seems like a strange title however with a little research we discover this is her alter ego on stage. After a hugely successful career with Destiny's Child Beyonce released her first solo album 'Dangerously In Love' that got her four Grammy's,īillboard number 1's and launched her as a self credited respected artist.
I think there's very few who don't know this amazing soul and R&B talent who oozes beautiful femininity and genuine class. The delightful Diva Beyonce is back with her third solo album 'I Am.Sasha Fierce' on Columbia. Review of Beyonce Knowles album I Am.Sasha Fierce
