5.0 out of 5 stars Beyonce Breaks Out
I think this CD is awesome and really shows Beyonce's potential as an artist. The single, Crazy in Love, is incredible and Beyonce has one of the most incredible voices in the business. She has been training since she was a child, and it's apparent that all her hard work really paid off. I would recommend this CD to anyone who enjoys good music. I think the world can...

3.0 out of 5 stars Halfway There
Beyonce', marketed and produced to appear to be the new Janet Jackson, is a better singer than JJ by about a million miles.

It is her marketing and production team that is crippling Beyonce's artistic arc. The marching-band-on-crack horns on "Crazy In Love" are fantastic, but the decision to drop in the now-obligitory ABAB rhyming of Jay-Z brings the record to...

I think the world can expect a lot more from Beyonce in the future. She is definately a survivor so people need to stop hating.

3.0 out of 5 stars Halfway There, February 6, 2004
This review is from: Crazy in Love (Audio CD)
Beyonce', marketed and produced to appear to be the new Janet Jackson, is a better singer than JJ by about a million miles.

It is her marketing and production team that is crippling Beyonce's artistic arc. The marching-band-on-crack horns on "Crazy In Love" are fantastic, but the decision to drop in the now-obligitory ABAB rhyming of Jay-Z brings the record to a stumbling end. Even worse are the mumbled ramblings of P. Diddy (or P-Daddy or Puff Daddy or whatever silly name The Most Overrated Man In Show Business is going by these days) on "Summertime." It could have been a nice record, but the King of Self Promotion killed it.

Beyonce' needs to set aside the pseudo-Janet Jackson pretentions and kick the washed up rappers off of her records before I'll be able to take her seriously. If she must ape another musician, Diana Ross would make more sense. Beyonce' may have the pipes to pull it off.

5.0 out of 5 stars A Huge Single, July 30, 2006
By 
This review is from: Crazy in Love (Audio CD)
Hi,

I listen to all kinds of music like Rhythm'n'Blues, Pop, Jazz, and Classical Music. Today I saw the very last Top of the Pops on BBC television wich included a clip of Beyoncé performing Crazy In Love. That lady's performance was so self assured and the band sounded so strong. I knew the single ofcourse, but what I heard and saw today really astonished me.
If I already loved the fine fast sections of the beautiful single 'You've made me so very happy' from the band 'Blood, Sweat and Tears' way back in time when I was just a ten year old kid, this groovy rhythm in 'Crazy In Love' shows us all the more that we need this fine groovy thing and the message of love linked to it.
Crazy In Love is definitely one of the finest singles ever created. It ranks in the top, believe me.

Yours,
Gert

The remixes are pretty fun, but I think I prefer the single version above all. I was never really into Beyonce, or Destiny's Child for that matter, but this song's really infectious and the message is cool. ^_^ Pretty cool song.

3.0 out of 5 stars catchy track but with Her hype I expect a bit more, July 28, 2003
This review is from: Crazy in Love (Audio CD)
while this track is catchy&follows the vibe that Beyonce has done thus far on the Solo tip i'd expect more considering all the Hype&Push She is getting.this track ain't bad but considering that Beyonce is pushed as the 2nd coming of something big you'd expect a knock out catelog type of song&thus far in her Brief Solo career nothing She has done has me thinking She is on the right track.don't get me wrong this cut is catchy but that has much to do with Her taking alot of this track off The Chi-Lites than anything Original that Beyonce or Her Handlers could fully come up with.but if She&Jay Z. Continue to Record&Make Hits Together can you say a Couple with a Greatest Hits Package in the Future? hey if it worked for Ja RUle with Ashanti&J-Lo then why not keep this formula going huh?

3.0 out of 5 stars Beyonce's Back!, July 16, 2003
By 
This review is from: Crazy in Love (Audio CD)
Beyonce teams up with ex?-boyfriend Jay-z again after the smash 03' Bonnie&Clyde.Crazy In Love is already a hit, reaching the top spot in billboard, TRL, and doing well in Europe too. It's a good funky tune, but not as sophisticated as you have experienced in Destiny's Survivor album.Jay-z's flow gives a lot to the song, but sorry, Bonnie&Clyde was much better.
I don't recommend you the single, instead try the Dangerously In Love album, there are some much better songs than this.
Check out the remake of In Da Club!
