R&B crooner R. Kelly’s unique spin on Beyonce’s ‘If I Were A Boy’ surfaced a few hours and already has tongues wagging. Though it’s a bit of a cut and paste job on the production front, it’s still pretty engaging lyrically.
Hit or Miss?

^^^He needs to take BeYawnSay’s wackness with him because this chick is not the business and for everybody talking about she has no competition, she’s competing with Sasha Fierce (*giggles*).

This isn’t official btw. He’s still has a beef with Jay-Z, which baffles me as to why he would do this song.
I guess all of his teenage girlfriends are really feeling this song right now.

haha im liking the remix =D
the song pissed me off before.
i especially like it when he says 'but your not a boy' & the not perfect part.
the lyrics for r.kelly are what i thought of the song when i first heard it, so im glad he remixed it

moreover, Single Ladies is #1 single & video on the iTunes, so it's going to skyrocket on the US Hot 100 singles! and her album is to debut on 200 albums charts at #1 with $500,000 +! so it's only gets beetteRR!

This version is actually better. The unoriginality Beyonce displays is style-bitten. She can really learn from Mary J., Keyshia, Alicia, Ciara, Brandy, and Rihanna to just be yourself. All the artists have had their ups and downs in the business… And B… she is having a down in my opinion… I will support her next album… maybe…

WOW BEYONCE IS REALLY GOING DIFFERENT ON THIS ALBUM. I NEVER EXPECTED HER TO WORK WITH R.KELLY. I REALLY LIKED WHAT THEY DID, I HOPE THEY DO ANOTHER SONG. BUT THEN AGAIN I’M ALSO CONFUSED ABOUT WHY BEYONCE IS DOING SONGS WITH R.KELLY I ALSO THOUGHT THAT HIM AND J-ZAY WERE BEEFIN.

WHO THE FUCK IS R.KELLY TO GIVE ANY ADVICE OR TELL WOMEN WHAT TO FEEL?
He is the definition of lying cheating scum who should just retire with his millions and never see the light of day again. Hate him. Hate him.

I like the version with Lee Carr much better! It sounds like it was originally made as a duet and his voice is AWESOME on it!!!

He’s finally lost it, completely!!!! This is awful and further proves the point of the original song.

Not an R. Kelly fan. BUT props for throwing the other perspective in there. Both sides, as in real life, made valid points. The song, contextually and vocally, evokes strong emotions. Hit.

Say what you want he is the KING of R&B & makes beats. Keep doing your thing Kellz & the same people trashing you are the same ones that jump up in the club when they bang your beats. 1
