How fucking daft are some of y'all? Beyonce's vocab is much different than when she was 18. She was young then, she's grown a lot. Maybe you should try to watch one of her old clips from youtube and a recent one now before you start talking. Not to mention you can't fully kill an accent. Secondly B-Day wasn't a flop. If you knew anything, you'd look at the numbers and realize that cd was one of the most successful cds of 06. I have to agree with everyone when it's mentioned how hypocritical for y'all to not mutter a peep with Rihanna pops out with a cd every 5 days. No B-Day probably wasn't as successful as DIL but can you tell me what artists has had a sophmore cd as big as the second? It was critically acclaimed people! I liked it, bought it and the rerelease, will buy it again if she be a smart ass and rerelease it one more time. Instead of hating on the woman and calling her a clown (I'm pretty sure she looks better than you do) be proud of the fact we got ourselves a successful black woman representing and not acting a fool like Paris. Do ya thang girl, I'mma be there supporting you no matter what.
