Beyonce Speaks On New Album

Published: Tuesday 21st Aug 2007 by Sam
Following the news last week that Beyonce is to release another album next year, the ‘Deja Vu’ singer has gone on record to, once again, confirm that a new CD is in the works. According to the star, she will begin recording in towards the end of this year. Check out the video below:

Why she feels the need to come out with another album so soon is anyone’s guess. A few years (hell, even one) out of the limelight may do her career some good – build the anticipation-but no. I can’t front though, I will be watching closely to see how things go down with her next project. Pre-‘Irreplaceable’, ‘B’ Day’ was largely considered a commercial failure; even with a re-release the total sales failed to top those of her first album ‘Dangerously In Love’. So it’ll be interesting to see how she fares this time around.

Do you think Beyonce’s next CD will be successful?

    BEYONCE DIDN’T GET NOMINATED FOR AN OSCAR FOR ACTING IN DREAMGIRLS!!!! THAT IS A OUT RIGHT LIE!!!!

    My opinion is the reason early bday sales were strong is because nobody had time to relise how BADDD the album was. Nothing about it was original. It mads that people are bragging that she done it in two weeks. That means someone wrote the tracks produced the tracks or stole them off victoria beckham! Then all she done is went in a studio for a couple of weeks and sang what was already there. Theres no art to that at all. I was a big fan when dangerously in love came out but now i just see her as a record company production. The woman comes across so desperate. If this is what the apparantly worlds best female artist is gona keep coming out with then ima give up on music.

    i agree with the two posts above me! no oscar nomination for her, she can’t act. and that’s not even me being a hater. the thing i like most about beyonce is her humility, but it’s her dumb ass overzealous fans that big her up to something she just is not. i’m sorry, if it weren’t for irreplaceable, b’day was a flop. not in sales obviously, but compared to dangerously in love it was not up to snuff. stop sweatin’ her so hard, make her really work and earn the praise. putting out an album you recorded in two weeks is in no way, shape or form an accomplishment. it’s a slap in the face to the people who actually still go out and buy cds.

    Her first album was the s*** even though she had Jay Z in 3 songs (damn girl) but I don’t care what ya;ll say B Day SUCKED it sucked donkeys balls, I ain’t been so mad at buying an album since I bought Akon’s first one,

    Anyway it doesn’t feel like it was 2 years because she’s been all over the place the album was re-released and she was all over the palce with those video;s but hey the videos done one thing made me like ‘Upgrade U’ cos i thought it sucked before, i’ve only got 2 songs from that album on my Ipod and it’s Upgrade U and Kit Kat her album sucked big time!!!!!

    New album – why oh why can’t your ass chill Beyonce, you are getting on my nerves and i’ve been a fan since the original DC yeah form the NO No No days, her new album might be good but I ain’t buying it straight away I wanna wait an see, come to think of it B Day was done i 2 weeks (bad idea Beyonce) and hell yeah I beleive she released it to beat Letoya (didn’t work did it)but I guess she feels she has something to prove to her real fans not the stans who like everything cos the majority of ther real fans thought B Day sucked

    Like I said before, No one was complaining when Rihanna was comming out with 3 albums a year, so why complain about Bee. Let the woman do what she wants to do.I’m tired of ya’ll f***** haters complaining all the goddamn time. If you don’t like her, don’t watch her, don’t pay attention to her. And she said she was recording in December, she did not say nothing about releasing an album in December. It takes a while to release an album. So calm the f*** down.

    rihanna’s first album only had 2 videos her second only 3 so why the f*** are u talking about im not saying rihanna is better but yall bitchz try to put a lower artists when it comes to comparing beyonce and no one is hating just because she is making another album its because she has been out so long none stop if she doesnt have an album out she has a movie if she doesnt have a movie she is with destiny’s child wtf she never takes a rest

    yeah, B def. did not get nominated for an Oscar at all. She was mad as hell that she didn’t get it for writing “listen.” The Academy people said that only the 3 main writers could be nominated, and even though she said she wrote THE WHOLE SONG, and that it was FROM HER HEART, the main writers were the ones who got nominated, and she probably just flipped a couple melodies. Whoever the reporter was who did this interview needed to get them facts straight before he did this. And she was waaaaaay outmatched in the acing category that she could have been nominated for…*smh*

    Anywhoo, all that being said, if she wanna put out a CD next summer, more power to her. I mean, B’Day clearly wasn’t as successful as Dangerously, so, maybe she can make up for lost time. To me it’s like this, either you love her or you hate her. She’s gonna milk all this time in the spotlight until it’s dry. THEN, she’ll marry Jigga and have his camel like children. And with those hips that she has now, you know it aint gone be no more s*** lil dresses and “uh-oh” dances. She’s gonna be wide as all outdoors. LOL

    Dudee..
    the’re a lot of haters over here..
    Well I’m a Beyonce fan.. and I think ya’ll wrong about the B Day Album beeing a flop..
    Dangerously in Love was a HOT album.. and all the single’s + Dangerously In Love 2 where HOT! but The other songs could’ve been done by other lightskined singers with long blonde wheaved hair and a nice voice..
    It was a suc6 because Beyonce’s voice was in it!

    B Day in the other hand was a production only Bee could’ve done..
    It had a lot of diffrent styles and they all where HOT!
    Okay.. she could’ve done more ballads [what she did when she re-released the album]

    About the originality: Victoria Beckham SOLD the song to Bee.. she didn’t STEAL it!!!
    The song fit her well because Jigga was cheatin on her [remember the groupie that said Jigga had a buddy that had the size of a 2L Coca Cola Bottle? and that she was @ his place all the time?]
    Deja Vu was a production only Bee could’ve done! The vocals and the beat and everything about the song is HOT! and the video is pure couture with a tottaly original choreography [based on african dances]

    Yes her show has been out there because of all the accidents and everything but I was there and it wuz HOTTTTTT!!
    Bee rocks the stage like NO OTHER!!!
    I’m serious man.. she is a true performer! It is a fashion, dance and light show in one.. and don’t forget that Miss Knowles voice was on point ALL THE TIME!!!

    About taking some time to breathe:
    Ya’ll right.. Bee has been in the industrie since DC started and I think it’s time for us to miss her..
    It would be a wize business decision: The world would see that there’s no other Beyonce!!!
    And Bee would have time to think, she could collect writing material and time think about other things than her career.

    BUTTTTT

    No one can tell me B is a bad performer, singer, songwriter [remember survivor and bootylicious?] or person!!
    B is the s***!

    How about all of ya’ll just shut the f*** up. Beyonce is doing her and let her do her. If ya’ll getting sick of her why ya’ll sit ya’ll asses down and watch her or listen to her? Personally I love B’Day more than Dangerously In Love. I mean i aint saying that her first one wasnt good cause it was good but B’Day was more up beat.

    Plus she said while she was working on Dreamgirl she couldnt sing like she always do with the rage she got.

    And ya’ll need to get ya’ll facts together because Beyonce is a oscar nominated artist. She was Nomination for Listen. And ya’ll can go search that up too.

    B’Day was recorded in two weeks with more songs but 10 plus a hidden track mad the cut. that was September 5th, 2006. She re-release B’day with songs she didnt put on the album but recored like 3 new songs. That doesn’t really count. That was a Special Edition. and Beyonce mad history for being the first artist to make videos for every one of her songs on her album. September 5th is right around the corner and that will make a year. At the end of this year she is recording another album which might be released in the summer of 2008 or later on in 2008. Beyonce is the best in what she do and she is the MOST hardest working entertainer in this business so ya’ll need to respect her and if you aint feeling it just turn the station on the tv and radio. How hard is that to do?

    Wow! Now this is a big piece of the puzzle.

    Beyonce said, “I don’t actually know what I am ging to write until I get into the studio …”

    that’s why the songs lack depth … except for Listen and Irreplacible, niether of which she wrote entirely alone or at all.

    Beyonce is so beautiful and definitely the hottes chick in the game hands down. And I think that a 6 months break will be long enough. Ppl who don’t go on the internet don’t see her as much b/c it is the BLOGS that always report her b/c she has the biggest hits. She is definitely the best out there and the Queen at what she does so ya’ll haters better bow down now b/c if u are sick of her now….just wait b/c she can only get bigger and better. Now I’m going to sit back and enjoy watching the haters cringe. LMAO!

    I love B. But B-day wasn’t all that.

    Let’s get it straight….
    B-day sold 600 million in its first official week based mostly on the fact that it had a gigantic # of pre-sales. Remember, that you can pre-order the record on amazon and like websites before the album even comes out! They ship it to you on the day of the release and it counts towards the first week of sales. I remember around that time there were rumors that B’s dad pushed for her pre-sales to start the same day that LaToya Luckett’s album dropped (it was a big controversy). Also, she was beginning to promote dream girls so she was already out there and talking about dream girls AND her album and how she lost 20lbs in two weeks, etc. etc….thus she was effectively promoting her pre-sales while doing those interviews…she is smart. But keep in mind that pre-sales are BEFORE anyone has heard the album!
    And after everyone heard it no one was jumpping up and down…but the label thought it was going to be a success because she shot a video for EVERY song on the album!

    And B’s writing and recording the album in 2 weeks is crap. It sounds like what Jay-Z used to say about his albums “I don’t write anything I just go to the studio and flow.” We all know that is a lie because Kanye is on record and will tell anyone who will listen that he was a ghost writer for Jay-Z! Jay-Z had several ghost writers so technically he didn’t write before he went to the studio someone else did but the truth is that he didn’t just free-style on all of this rhymes!!! We they feel the need to overstate the truth is beyond me! Who cares! Most people don’t understand how many weeks/months it takes to record an album anyway…we just care about the final product!

    How f****** 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.

    yes her album was successful but compared 2 the destiny’s child albums and her last it doesnt even compare. BDAY was a boring album not boring but not as good as destiny’s child albums or kelly’s Ms.Kelly im sorry but the only reason the album was successful was because lots and lots of promo i hope beyonce takes time with her new album and i wish her the best but come on beyonce how can kelly have a hotter album i know she hasnt sold as much as beyonce but Ms.Kelly is just 2 hot BDAY doesnt even compared 2 it

    I, for one, was surprised to hear Beyonce say that she plans to start work on her next album this December. After such a whirlwind of success within the last year, I would imagine she would be welcoming hiatus right about now.

    But, I guess not…& she loves what she does. Judging from the bulk of responses here…there are ALOT of unhappy people in this world. As much as many of you may draw up weak comparisons or fledging comments…the numbers NEVER lie. “B’Day” was one of the top selling albums of 06-07. Its first week’s sales alone were enough to knock Christina Aguilera out of her top selling first-week-sale female position.

    When “B’Day” was re-released…he album jumped from #69 to #6. You ain’t gotta like her…but you gotta respect the numbers. I will say that “B’Day” is way more commercial than her first album & it took a while for it to grow on me. Re-releasing the album was a very smart move.

    I would like to see her take a break for maybe a year or so…you know…rest from all that she does. But…I guest she doesn’t need it right now.

    ….& for all of you ranting about her making a new album….chill. If she wasn’t putting out new material, many of you would be quick to brand her ‘forgotten’. Also, just b/c recording may start in December ’07 does not mean it’ll be ready in a few short months. It may very well not be released until early 2009…so many hypothetical directions it could go.
