LISTEN TO BEYONCE'S "IF I WERE A BOY"

Originally scheduled to be release on October 7th, "If I Were A Boy" became the first of two new Beyonce singles to heat up the airwaves and music blog scene. The "Essence" magazine cover girl's much anticipated single, "If I Were A Boy" had its world premiere on Elvis Duran's Z100 radio show in New York City. Toby Gad (the man behind Fergie's hit "Big Girls Don't Cry") produced the country-infused track, "If I Were A Boy." With this song out officially, all eyes on "Single Ladies" which would also lead off Beyonce's upcoming music project like "If I Were A Boy" simultaneously. Beyonce's third untitled album drops on November 18th.

I love that with both singles she didn't feature a famous MC/another singer but she instead did it alone. That's something her previous singles, "Crazy in Love" and "Deja Vu" didn't do. Beyonce definitely switch her vocals and approach this time around. So do you love it or not?

I think it's called Single Ladies, not Single Singles. I'm not feeling either track....yet.

Not sure myself. I like Beyonce, but I'm not as big a fan of her as some other people. I always liked Kelly better in Destiny's Child.

Thanks Lola. :) I'm working on two blog sites this morning at the same time. Too much going back and forth.

This song may have to grow on me like "Deja Vu" did but Beyonce can sing. Her vocals on this track is hot!

Keith, likewise. I'm more of a Kelly too but I love and appreciate Beyonce's dedication and talent.

Oh what's the other blog...I think you linked me to it before. Single Ladies has leaked too. I will agree her vocals sound great
