keishadSep 16, 2006This was a waste of money, there is nothing impressive about this album. My buddys bought the cd before me and told me it was garbage, next time i will listen to them and save my money for something that is worth it.

JackSep 5, 2006My sister recently bought this album and won't stop listening to at full volume. I can easily say without a doubt that my ears haven't been so fully raped since her last atrocity. Beyonce just another celeb with no talent and only gets by on looks. Avoid this cd at all costs.

CyHSep 6, 2006Are you guys serious? These songs blend together and sound alike. I can gather two decent songs. This shyt sucks. I thought she would have matured in her lyrics not flat-linned. Her voice is cool I wish she just had better songs. These songs are like all the rest of the gibberish you herare on the radio.

mikes.Sep 9, 2006A horrible album. Beyonce has great talent, the problem with this album is that it is unfocused and lacks modern production. The production is so lackluster and the producer failed to modernize beyonce with the times. Instead the album sounds exactly like her previous album except not as good or as fresh.

cleanerSep 6, 2006The first thing that grabed me about this album is the name. B-DAY just reminds me of that european bathroom Accessory the Bidet ( pronounced BDAY here in the UK, and they are for washing your bum hole) and strangly enough the album also has the same effect as a BDAY

ElrondRSep 15, 2006Weak.. this album is horrid and shouldnt be purchased.

daniellesSep 15, 2006The album seems rushed, and a far cry from the Dangerously in Love. I don't see any growth in this album. The songs lack the maturity of her debut album.

Dec 15, 2013Incorporating elements of Candomblé in his music, Beyoncé makes another major disaster, poorly produced songs and lackluster lyrics, B'Day souounds like an album that Janet Jackson could do when were with diarrhea.
-
Nov 11, 2015a clear copy of which she had already been doing since his time of the group with their backs, dancing scolding wig and fan, nothing innovative to deserve a green note, all I see is too bright and little content.
-
Sep 16, 2020Este álbum no se merece tener tan buenas criticas porque es un álbum normal sus letras y mensajes repetitivos y nada innovador sus melodías y sonidos igual.

GalrothPSep 15, 2006In the history of her carreer I have yet to hear such garbage!!

JamarOSep 20, 2006Weak album. Boring, rushed, and definitely forgettable. I think Beyonce is under the impression the public will lap up anything she puts out, and in some ways she is right. Still doesnt change the fact that the album is barely listenable the whole way through, even though it is short. Even 10 minutes of this is too much.

SandersCSep 2, 2006The production is weak. A couple more weeks of recording could of made this album a masterpiece.

jeffSep 25, 2006its sad that this album got good reviews.. since when did syncopated beats and tuneless melodies become music?

-
CurrentOptionsSep 2, 2006This album recycles a bunch of old stuff. The album is not creative at all/

BiancaDSep 5, 2006It's pretty cool but not enough... Dangerously In Love is alot better...
-
-
QTSep 6, 2006I thought the album would have been much better. I think she needs to stick to ballads. I dislike most of the album and it's definitely no comparison to Dangerously In Love. I expected much more but she's still my girl.

MsTishSep 7, 2006I expected more out of this CD. She's yelling and screaming and hollering all of this chin chilla this and that. She has more class than that. I'm very disappointed.

MiguelSSep 8, 2006Wow, what a diss-apointment! The songs just don't have the kick or the fire of her previious work. This is almost as bad as Outkast's bizarre piece 'o crap, Idlewild!

Whereas Beyoncé's debut was accomplished in its diversity, albeit a sure sign of a new solo artist trying to find her voice, B'Day sounds like the album "Crazy In Love" initially forecasted.
-
BlenderB'Day never cools down, and swaety up-tempo numbers prove the best platform for Beyonce's rapperly phrasing and pipe-flaunting fireballs. [Sep 2006, p.138]
-
Apart from a few pop-R&B space-fillers, there's not much to dislike about B'Day.
