Opinion
I bet Shawn Carter purrs every time he sees his wife ironing his Z-shirts or frying pancakes in the morning wearing something close to Eve outfit. The rest of the mankind have no other choice but to wistfully pronounce "Mmm" and sigh deeply while browsing through the colorful booklet. Beyoncé continues to exploit her perfect booty, but does that in a much more artistic and experimental way. Her fifth album is a generous kaleidoscope of different R&B flows. Every person should be able to find the right song for them. I managed to discover three soul-pleasers – the discolingus on "Blow," the regular '90s R&B on "Rocket," and the spirit-rising anthem on "XO." After listening to this self-titled opus I've got only two questions: does she indeed need permission to "sit her ass" anywhere she pleases; was it really necessary to draw so much attention to feminist trials on the major album? There are much more serious problems in this world, where one lying Russian politician can cause more harm to the humankind than all the chauvinists put together.
