I think 4 was her best album since the B'Day era, I Am Sasha Fierce wasn't bad but 4 GOES HARD, i'm a not die-hard fan of Bey but she went back to SANGING on this album with tracks like 1+1, I Care, Dance for You, Rather Die Young and start Over i was impressed and I think Bey's at the point where she's been doing what people wanted for years and now she's just doing her thing...but i think B'Day was like her perfect album in regards to dance records and etc i remember that time when B'Day dropped that summer all i heard was Beyonce in philly, but she's grown musically and her lyrics have more sustenance now which i like i think the next album after 4 will probably blow everyone away, i still cant believe that Bey and Jill Scott didn't win grammy awards when their projects were great...the grammy committee doesn't aways salute good work though
