The perfect timing of Beyonce Knowles' career moves continues with the release of her debut solo album. Dangerously in Love's best music is wildly up-to-date, craftily designed for both maximum street acceptance and positioning as some of the most cutting-edge stuff on current radio. The brash first single, "Crazy in Love," melds Jay-Z with an unstoppable Chi-Lites horn sample, shape-shifting into something brand new. Collaborations with Outkast's Big Boi and Sean Paul also prick up the ears, while changes of pace like "Be with You" and "Speechless" achieve their aim with credibility. The disc becomes far too ballad heavy in its second half, but the key stuff is the noise she brings. --Rickey Wright

Customer Reviews:

DAM GOOD!!!! .....No matter what , some of the other reviewers have to say!!.......2007-06-08

If you only like her up beat songs like crazy in love, you do not appreciate her as an artist!. On this cd for me 10/15 tracks are good example, Yes... some people would not think mush of as it is not great song writing but sometimes simple things can work!. I think that is one of the reasons R&B is in the bad state it is in today, as all these record company's want from their artist is to write songs about the same old topics because they think that is what will sell and they brain wash the world into thinking like them,(starting with the teens as these topics are more or less new to them and they forget that people gow up and by the time they get to their late 20't 30't they are fed up of these same topics, especially if they are into the old R&B also) so that is all most people want and other more creative songs, will never be considered to be released as singles, keeping today's R&B down in the rubbish bin. One other example of this (a little better song writing on this one) is Signs, different! new! a great song!( I know of Tyrese's signs, good also).
The other tracks most people know... Be With You, Me Myself And I, Baby Boy, Naughty Girl, Dangerously In Love and Work It Out, more or less in order of quality, bonnie and Clyde with JayZ are all good songs, making this cd a must have.

mixed reviews, I'll give it a 3.5.......2007-04-27

crazy in love, baby boy and naughty girl are the big dance numbers on this album and all 3 were huge hits in 2003 and 2004, but you won't find the rest of the album sounding like those 3 songs. The rest is full of ballads and mid tempo r&b tracks, only 4 to 5 of which I truly enjoy including me myself & I, daddy, be with you, signs, speechless and of course dangerously in love, which originally appeared on the destiny's child survivor album.

If you're a fan of beyonce, I guess you will enjoy this album a lot, but I prefer the B'day album so much more, I can listen to that from start to finish without getting bored, while with this CD I can't sit through the whole thing though the songs I do love are well done.

3 1/2 Stars...Not Great But Better Than B'day.......2007-03-16

I was very anxious about getting this album but it didn't meet up to all the hype it was getting. The best tracks are the ballads "Speechless & "The Closer I Get To You", "Crazy In Love". It was nothing incredible but not a complete disappointment. She's alot better in the group with the material that's presented on the albums especially Destiny Fulfilled. Don't bother with B'day, it only has 10 tracks and doesn't pay to have an album that doesn't live up to the hype.

2nd time buying.......2007-01-10

I played the first one so much, I had to buy it again.
Dangerously in love is still my favorite.
Thanks B.

I love this CD, but B'Day is better!.......2007-01-07

Beyonce's debut "Dangerously In Love" is amazing. I love "Crazy In Love", and for the rest of the album it is great. But the beat is digital, and it's like Pop music and Beyonce has a R&B/Soul voice, and on her "B'Day" album she shows her vocal talents and I love it!

Customer Reviews:

Excellent!.......2005-03-23

I really love this CD I expessially enjoy #8, and #10, Signs w/ Missy Elliot, and Thats how you like it w/Jay-z. This CD is truely a 5 star record A+!

Up, then down and then up again. Ummm. No Idea?.......2004-06-15

Ummm. I like this Cd. but the thing is that it quickyl gets to a slow side which make you wanna goto sleep. I liked the first four tracks. After that comes the bore of the album. why couldn't she sing fast-paced songs and take it easy on the slow ones. 'Cause I went and dozed off through nearly half the Cd until Work it out and the other bonus tracks played out. I got up and I liked that part. A Good CD but content needs a little brush up. that's all. She's got a good voice so please don't spoil with sleepy songs which bores everyone. I like this CD honestly. Just hope she could better next time.

The best CD I ever got........2004-05-01

This CD will blow you away. This woman has amazing talent and a wonderful and peaceful voice. Her songs are so peaceful and melodic, and the lyrics are incredible. Here is my overall outlook of the CD.

Since I got the regular version, however, Work It Out (one of my fave Beyonce songs) and '03 Bonnie & Clyde aren't on my list.

1.Crazy In Love- 6/10 This song is great. I used to like it a lot when it was made, but since I got the CD a few weeks ago, I kind of dislike it now. But I LOVE the hook.

2.Naughty Girl- 4/10 I don't really like this song that much. It just didn't grab my attention.

3.Baby Boy- 8/10 I LOVE this song. This song has to be one of the best songs on the album. It has that middle-eastern vibe, which I love, and Sean Paul is on it. Even though I can't understand a word he's saying, I love the beat, and Beyonce just makes it even better.

4.Hip Hop Star- 8/10 Another GREAT song. Great beat, but Beyonce didn't put a lot into it vocally. It's still great, though. Big Boi and Sleepy Brown are on this one, and I LOVE Outkast, so it makes it even better.

5.Be With You- 7/10 This song is good. The beat isn't much, but her lyrics are. She copied part of this song from an old school song that I don't know the name of. I love the way she sings, and her lyrics are fantastic.

6.Me, Myself, And I- 3/10 I didn't like this song AT ALL. To me, it was WAY overplayed, and a song like Hip Hop Star could have been put in its place. It was annoying listening to this song over and over again on the radio, but hey, there will be better songs.

7.Yes- 9/10 This song was just great. She sings about her ex-boyfriend, who is obviously rushing into sex, as the songs goes. This song relates to me, because I'm not a fan of rushing into physical things AT ALL. Plus, I like the beat of it.

8.Signs- 8/10 This song is also good. I like the beat, and the way she rhymes everything. (Capricorn, Aquarius, Pisces, Aries) Missy Elliot, one of my FAVE female rappers is also on this song. However, I did hear a little reversing of the lyrics (Missy's touch, probably.) which made her sound like she was saying something in Chinese. But, the song was excellent.

9.Speechless- 8/10 This is a straight-up LOVE-MAKING song. This song is great! I love the lyrics, especially, and from the beat of the song, I knew it suggested something sexual. The first time I listened to it, I was thinking, WOW! At first I thought it was nasty (only sweat between us.....) , but now I think it's just good.

10.That's How You Like It- 6/10 This song is okay. It was nothing special, but I liked the beat of it. Jay-Z, her boyfriend (or should I say husband?) lended some words on the song. It was an okay song.

11.The Closer I Get To You- 2/10 I didn't like this song not ONE BIT. It was kind of boring, and I always skip this song. It's the only song on the album that I will completely skip.

12.Dangerously In Love- 6/10 This song is pretty good. Once again, her lyrical flow proves successful. She sings about her ex-boyfriend (because in the song, she sings, "you loved me before I became who I am."). It was good, but it tooker like 20 MINUTES to sing the end of the song. When she performed it on the Grammys (which she won 5 AWARDS! Go girl!), I was laughing because everyone was clapping even though she wasn't done. I don't know if she was stalling for that dove to come, or if it was part of the song, but it was a good performance. I'm getting away from the point. Good song, but not that special to me.

13.Beyonce Interlude- 7/10 Although she was just talking, she said something that I really liked: Your love goes beyond what I can say. That was so beautiful. She really loves the guy she's singing about.

14.Gift From Virgo- 10/10 This song is SO GOOD! It made me CRY once. She loves this guy sooo much! The part that made me tear up was when she goes, "when it's time to leave, it's so hard to say goodbye..". It was TOO beautiful. I wish this was the end of the CD though, because the next song made me cry even harder.

15.Daddy- 10/10 I give this song a full score, because it had great lyrics, and made me cry. HARD. She sings about her father, and I was just thinking about my dad when she sang it. I got teary when I heard it. Such a beautiful song. However, I can't listen to it anymore because I don't wanna cry from it!

Overall Score:110 Possible Score:150

This CD was just great. I bought it beause I love Beyonce, and because I just KNOW who she is talking about in every song. (Jay-Z) I love hearing her voice, and I know I didn't waste my money on this album.

The Empress has no clothes (obviously).......2004-04-14

When I listened to this album, I was startlingly reminded of why I don't listen to gregorian chant. Melismatic singing I propose was to instill a state of mind for the listener, not to entertain. While the production of this album is undeniably first rate, this doesn't make it a first rate recording.

For the VH1 Divas concert of April 2004, Beyonce wasn't even sniffed at and maybe this album and her 2004 grammy performance are why. No matter how good looking someone can be, which Beyonce is without a doubt, why can't her producers match it by having her use her doubtless singing talent instead of suffocating it with mind-boggling videos and artsy overblown stage productions?

I'll bet she doesn't see much of the ridiculous $23 charged for one disc. Beyonce is an undenaible talent but this album is as far from history making music as any album in recent memory, and she has her producers to blame.

A truly talented individual!.......2003-12-02

This ray of R'n'B light has kept on shining, even without her trusty backing singers (Kelly and Michelle). This singer/songwriter has done well for herself with her first album as she has managed to perform well vocally as well as lyrically. If you are a Destiny's Child fan, you're sure to fall in love with this album. There's a song on there for everyone.
So have a listen for yourself and see what you think. (If you've ever heard Dangerously in Love on Destiny's Child's album, please, can somebody tell me what the difference is between Beyonce's version, and the trio's version!)

She brings me Crazy in love.......2005-03-20

Well, at least she can sing and she has talent, but she wastes it trying to be the attention center, always tearing apart her mates Kelly and Michelle.
The album could have been rated by me with 5 full stars, but her behavior is not the apropiate; in addition she's the most stereo typical black girl ever. (That factor could've gave it 3 stars or less) it was one of the most overrated albums during the 2003, I didn't mean it's bad, but it has nothing surprising or new. Monica's "After the storm" and Blu Cantrell's "Bittersweet" were better albums.
This is amazing, but nothin' surprising.

Beyonce's Dangerously In Love: Review by: Lizzie.......2005-10-24

I think beyonce did an amazing job in proving herself as a vocalist and as an artist in her solo album. She definately doesnt need to be in a group to be noticed because she is at a point in her career where i think shes grown so much vocaly. Making her solo album is showing everyone how strong she is as a singer and artist and i think her album definately proves it. She came out with 3 or 4 hits that climbed the charts really fast. The only negative thing that i would have to say about this cd is that the only songs i like were the ones she released and maybe 1 or 2 others. The rest of the songs were slower and had less of a beat and didnt make me feel like dancing at all. I still recommend this cd because her voice alone is extremely soothing after a long day at school, or at work, or after anything stressful.

Beyonce Storms the World.......2003-07-08

Beyonce' has proven that she can make you dance, cry, scream and just about do anything. I have been a fan of b's since the original "No, No, No" came out and I have followed her career and grown with her. This new album shows true soulful singing that is going out of style. B's vocal range is incredible and she proves so much more "woman-like" in this new cd. The sky is the limit for her and if you want a cd that you can party too, work out too, dance too, clean the house too or have an initimate night with your boy or girl, this is the album for you. Go Ms. B.!

i sounds so good, i'm so hot.

Great CD.......2003-12-22

This is an over all great CD. There are some songs that didn't have to be on here, but they are still okay.

The last reviewer is CRAZY.......2003-09-21

This album is amazing and I still have this cd in my car after 4 months. No, not every song could be put on the radio, but what cd ever has that? If you like Beyonce, then you will love the album. Every song has her certain thang to her which is why her fans love her, and why everyone in the world will soon love her

Definitely Worth Buying.......2003-07-31

After I saw Beyonce live at The Today Show, i just had to buy the CD.
Crazy in Love: hot but it can get a little old after hearin it a thousand times!!

Nasty Girl: Really sexy and has an awesome dance beat!

Baby Boy (with sean paul): one of my favorite songs on the CD!! i cant stop listening to it and dancing!!

Hip Hop Star: i dont really like this one... its ok

Be With You: I LOVE THIS SONG!!!! the vocals are amazing!

Me Myself & I: I love this song, its really chill and every girl can relate to it.

Yes: Its ok... the lyrics are really good

Signs: im sorry, but i cant stand this song... its one of the worst on the album!! its so stupid...!!

Speechless: by far one of the best on the album... the instrumental parts are excellent and her vocals are amazing! this song is really sexy, too.

That How You Like It: This one is pretty good especially the part with jay z... but its a little repetitive.

The Closer I Get to You: w/ luther vandross... pretty good, not my favorite.

Dangerously in Love: From "Survivor" but with a new beat... its a really emotional song with great vocals.

Beyonce Interlude: its just her talkin but its pretty good.

Gift From Virgo: its kinda of stupid (like "signs") but it can grow on you :)

Bonnie & Clyde '03: everyone knows this one.

Work it Out: From "Austin Powers" pretty good with a retro feel to it.

Daddy: extra track, its nice and a tribute to her father.

All in all this CD was GREAT except for a few bad tracks... definitely worth buying if u love to dance or just chill!! Best Songs: Nasty Girl, Baby Boy, Be With You, Me Myself & I, and Speechless!!!

GREAT WORK FROM BEYONCE!.......2003-07-31

NO MATTER HOW EVERYONE IS HATING ON HER,SHE IS ONE OF THE MOST
SUCESSFUL YOUNG ARTISTS IN THE INDUSTRY,AND NOT TO FORGET
TALENTED AND CREATIVE. AS FAR AS THIS ALBUM IS CONCERNED,I
DIDN'T EXPECT FOR IT TO BE AS GOOD AS IT IS. SHE CAME OUT WITH
A STYLE DIFFERENT FROM DC'S SOUND WHICH MAKES IT TOTALLY OFF
THE HIZZY! I LIKE THE WHOLE ALBUM WHICH I GIVE 5 STARS FOR,BUT
BABY BOY,HIP HOP STAR AND CRAZY IN LOVE I GIVE 1 STAR...I'M NOT
FEELING THOSE SONGS,OTHER THAN THAT THE ALBUM IS GREAT,MATURE,
SEXY AND SULTRY.
