day 234

i might personally bitch slap beyonce knowles
okay, that's probably not altogether true - especially because what are the chances i'll actually get into close enough proximity to actually perform said bitch slap? - but if she makes one more damn video with two female back-up dancers doing an overly choreographed routine, i don't know what i'll do. apparently beyonce left behind the success that was destiny's child - in which, to be honest, she was the only one you really knew the name of, right? - to just become a solo act with the same routine and style. lady b's latest offering, "sweet dreams," is one of the best offerings off the sasha fierce side of her duel disc i am...sasha fierce, but she couldn't back up the super creative effort with a creative video. while the "sweet dreams" video most definitely does knock "single ladies" and "diva" out of the water in terms of styling and trippiness, it's still the same shit, different day. at least beyonce gets some quality solo time with a mirror in the vid. i'd be happier if she just used three of her own images to do the choreography, similar to how the whole mirror work goes down in this vid. i can understand being consistent and having a collective look to your work on one album, but there are other ways to do that. doing all the vids in black and white would have been enough. but, anyway, judge the video for yourself above.
