5th studio album release by r&b, dance-pop mega-star Beyoncé. People want it, they decide it's good to own and that she's on top. The critics bow and praise the album as her best. "Surprise of the year!". Well, I'm not impressed, or: it's just not my style. I usually don't like contemporary r&b and American mainstream pop. I can't find the originality but do acknowledge that she's talented at... that.
