AutumnJones Review: "I Am...Sasha Fierce"

Image
“ I Am...Sasha Fierce " is the latest release from the pro-claimed QUEEN B. However, does this recent release hold Mrs. Carter in her spot at #1? The double disc album for the most part is an enjoyable album. The only problem that it faces is the mere fact that editing was needed. Disc one is titled "I Am" is said to be the more vulnerable and romantic side while disc two "Sasha Fierce" is more sexual and aggressive. Which is a great description of where the two disc differ... However some of the tracks seem to just be fillers in order to make the album a double disc. According to Beyonce, this is an official introduction to her alter-ego Sasha, which is a little strange because most would agree, that we’ve known Sasha since Dangerously in Love. "Halo", "Disappear", "Smash into you", and "Broken-Hearted Girl" are all actually very great ballads that appear on disc one. Besides editing the only concern is that there's
