Beyoncé's New Single 'Grown Woman' is Leaked

Currently on the set list for her Mrs Carter world tour, Grown Woman is one of the most highly anticipated of Beyoncé's singles to date. The tune was first heard after the release of Pepsi's latest commericial where the megastar is seen with several versions of herself in a dance-off. 

A full version of the latest single was released by Inside The Studio on Soundcloud, and it lives up to it's hype. The song is full of sass and was reportedly produced by Timbaland.  It has clear African influences, as two thirds of the way through it is dominated by voiced acapella percussion and island rhythmn. A feast for the ears, this infectious tune will be a massive hit and I cannot wait for a video and official release.

The song is taken from Mrs Carter's upcoming untitled album and was reportedly written by The-Dream. Although it is a different sound to Beyoncé's traditional r'n'b, it is fresh and is sure to be a huge success. 

Bow Down to Beyonce! Singer's New Single Receives Mixed Reviews

Queen of pop Beyonce caused a stir yesterday when she released a brand new song on her Tumblr page- 'Bow Down/I Been On'. Rumours about her highly anticipated fifth studio album release have been circulating, with many assuming it will be named 'Mrs Carter' (after her tour).

Back in February, Ticketmaster experienced extreme problems with the sheer volume of demand for Beyonce's tour tickets, leaving hundreds of disappointed fans to express their anger on Twitter.

New single Bow Down has not recieved 100% positive views however. The song is adventurous and fresh, something which some fans were disillusioned by. 

One Twitter user said: "Telling b!shes to bow down in your 30s is never cute."

Another said:  "So I absolutely ❤❤❤ Beyonce! But.... Bow Down is a bit too hood for my liking.... #BowDown

It contains distorted voices which contrast her mystifyingly ethereal high notes and fans will also recognise the regal melody from her tour teaser that was shown last month.

It's 'don't mess with me' vibe is definitely another empowering tune for Beyonce, and with the words 'Bow Down B*tches', I don't think anyone will be forgetting who she is and where she is from!

I personally loved the single, what do you think?
