This music selection isn’t very different from the genre of the Nelly Furtado CD. Again I think both adults and teens listent to her music. It is somewhat pop although it sounds quite different from Loose, more soulful, it is also a great CD for dancing along to. The songs all have really strong beats that make the lyrics oh so empowering.
Songs like “Freakum Dress” and “Suga Mama” have Beyonce appealing to both femininity and feminism at the same time. It also has her inventing new words that I am sure will catch on among both the young folk and the old. She sings about relationships and betrayal and jealousy, drama all over.
All of the songs were catchy and enjoyable. I listened to them many times over for this post while I was reading material for other posts and I didn’t get tired of them. I think this is something young girls will enjoy listening to.
