 (112 Customer Reviews)
DANGEROUSLY IN LOVE won the 2004 Grammy Award for Best Contemporary R&B Album. "Dangerously In Love" won for Best Female R&B Vocal Performance. "The Closer I Get To You" won for Best R&B Performance By A Duo Or Group With Vocals. "Crazy In Love" ... Full Descriptionwon for Best R&B Song and for Best Rap/Sung Collaboration. The song was also nominated for Record of the Year.
Besides deft, pitch-perfect hit songs, the talented if volatile Destiny's Child was remarkable for its unpredictability, not always a defining characteristic of mainstream R&B. While there was certainly a formula at play in the songs, the structure was subtly unstable, never following standard progressions. Yet most of their singles flew to the top of both the pop and R&B charts. While DC was generally a collective, Beyonce Knowles clearly emerged as the most high-profile member, even before major turns on the big screen, signaling anticipation for her debut album, DANGEROUSLY IN LOVE.
Beyonce's opening salvo should disappoint neither her fans nor the general public, as it features skillful songwriting balancing innovation and abundant hooks. DANGEROUSLY IN LOVE starts with a flourish, as the omnipresent Jay-Z brashly introduces the feverishly catchy, brass-fueled dance cut "Crazy In Love," followed by three more lush club-bangers, including a typically inviting guest toast by Sean Paul and some tongue-twisters from Outkast's Big Boi. From there, the soulstress shifts into ballad mode, the starkest moment coming with "Yes," beautifully reminiscent of the DC sound. On DANGEROUSLY IN LOVE, Beyonce both remains true to her past success while forging intriguing new ground.
Contains a hidden track following "Gift From Virgo."

Mojo (Publisher) (9/03, p.105) - 3 stars out of 5 - "...Her deliciously smooth reworking of Bootsy Collins' 'Be With You', 'Naughty Girl's' reference to Donna Summer's 'Love to Love You Baby', and the JB-style funk of 'Work It Out' are all exceptional cuts..."

Beyonce Dangerously In Love Songs Dangerously In Love Music Dangerously In Love Music Review Average Rating: (4 out of 5 stars)   List All Reviews The worst album out of the other DC members and the worst.
I downloaded the cd and the bonus track. I must say that the there are some really good songs (especially some of the collabs). .' "DIL" was extremely bad. Its not the way it is on the DC cd or the way she's been performing it. she changed it up a bit . The backgrounds were all her vocals. Also in the original there was a part in the end where Kelly repeatedly sang "I Love YOU". In part two Beyonce sang it. It did not sound the same at all it sounded bad. I THINK BEYONCE AND KELLY SHOULD DO A ALBUM TOGETHER BECAUSE THEIR VOICES BLEND WELL TOGETHER. The songs that I thought that were good are 'SIGNS-FEATURING MISSY', 'CLOSER I GET-FEATURING LUTHER VANDROS', 'NAUGHTY BOY', 'YES' and 'BABY BOY-FEATURING SEAN PAUL'. The song that i thought was above mediocre is 'CRAZY IN LOVE-FEATURING JAY Z'. The mediocre songs are 'YES', 'SPEECHLESS', 'ME MYSLEF AND I' and , 'BE WITH YOU' The songs that I thought were TERRIBLE were 'DIL', 'HIP HOP STAR', 'GIFT OF THE VIRGO' AND 'THAT'S HOW I LIKE IT -FEATURING JAY Z'. i was expecting something really hot and I think that a lot of DC FANS ARE GOING TO BE EXTREMLY DISAPPOINTED. Beyonce is way overrated. Although I enjoyed Kelly's album very much, NONE OF THE GIRLS SOSLO PROJECTS COMPARE TO DC MATERIAL. They should get back together as sone as possible.

After then-teenaged Monica waited an unusual three years to follow up her 1995 platinum debut MISS THANG with THE BOY IS MINE and scored one of the biggest crossover hits ever with that sophomore effort's title track, she waited five years to drop her third album, AFTER THE STORM. There's something to the whole slow-and-steady thing, and while the record was consigned to the "notoriously delayed" bin for awhile, it was seemingly not ...

$10.89 
50 Cent was nominated for the 2004 Grammy Award for Best New Artist. GET RICH OR DIE TRYIN' was nominated for Best Rap Album. "In The Club" was nominated for Best Male Rap Solo Performance and for Best Rap Song.
50 Cent was nominated for the 2004 Grammy Award for Best New Artist. GET RICH OR DIE TRYIN' was nominated for Best Rap Album. "In Da Club" was nominated for Best Male Rap Solo Performance and for Best Rap Song.
Provocative 2003 official debut from Queens gangsta-poet, includes anthemic #1 hit "In Da Club."
With its inclusion on the mega-successful 8 MILE soundtrack, 50 Cent's "Wanksta" blew up in late 2002, calling out the hypocrisies of wannabe gangstas who boast of criminal exploits that exist only in their imaginations. If anyone has the right to speak it's 50 Cent; he made his mark in the streets (not to mention newspapers) long before Eminem inked the Queens rapper to his Shady Records. In between the occasional single and album, 50 Cent has been involved in many notorious hip-hop confrontations. The too-aptly titled GET RICH OR DIE TRYIN' (which includes "Wanksta") ...

Dangerously In Love music CDs
$13.55
Includes an untitled hidden track at the end of THE LOVE BELOW CD.
Additional personnel includes: Sleepy Brown, Jazze Pha, Jay-Z, Killer Mike, Big Gipp, Ludacris, Rosario Dawson, Norah Jones, Kelis, Cee-Lo, Lil Jon, Mello, Slim Calhoun, Kuhjo Goodie.
SPEAKERBOXXX/THE LOVE BELOW won the 2004 Grammy Awards for Album Of The Year and for Best Rap Album. "Hey Ya!" won for Best Urban/Alternative Performance. The song was also nominated for Record Of The Year.
Simply put, there is no band that does anything close to what Outkast does. Big Boi & Andre 3000 have consistently managed to maintain mainstream success while obliterating the limits of what is considered to be hip-hop. Frolicking at the outskirts of language, they throw every genre into a blender and make every musical turn sound organic. SPEAKERBOXXX/THE LOVE BELOW is actually two solo records fused together, the former by Big Boi, the latter by Andre 3000, with each mind working at an equally frantic pace to create a gloriously split sonic experience.
Big Boi opens with a techno intro that fades into industrial-style grinding ...
| | Ashanti Chapter II CD (2003)
Dangerously In Love songs
$12.05 
Skits notwithstanding, Ashanti's sophomore album is a confident leap away from her self-titled debut. She makes the most of her lightweight, breathy voice, incorporating airy, summery, string-laced arrangements in a variety of settings that go down extremely smoothly even, as in "Living My Life," when they're about that thorniest of topics, the struggle to make it.
Ashanti never hectors or browbeats, ...
| | G-Unit Beg For Mercy CD (2003)
Dangerously In Love album
$12.05 
Queens rapper 50 Cent ascended to the pinnacle of the hip-hop world in 2003, and the latter part of the year saw his crew, G-Unit, drop by with their own ubiquitous single "Stunt 101" and debut record, BEG FOR MERCY. Far from an entourage cashing in on one member's immediate success, the success of both 50 Cent and G-Unit is more of a chicken-and-egg situation. Since 1999, G-Unit's mixtape moments have been among the most sought after on the streets, helping to pump up 50 Cent's status until he exploded onto the mainstream.
Unsurprisingly, BEG FOR MERCY delivers a blistering attack of street rap that survives on its own merits. While 50 Cent opens the show on "Poppin' Them Thangs," ...

In what he claims to be his final release as a musical performer, Jay-Z drops THE BLACK ALBUM, a sprawling, ambitious effort that rivals the best work of the rapper's already legendary career. Working with a who's who of hip-hop's most high-profile producers, the outrageously talented MC adjusts his flow and subject matter to the wildly varied tracks, proving once again just how gifted he is as a wordsmith.
