Amazon.co.uk Review
It's hyped up, rush-released to avoid piracy and full of stars--but is Beyoncé's solo album Dangerously in Love worthy of all the expectancy? Yes. Her individual break from Destiny's Child has been predicted for the last four years, but Dangerously in Love takes advantage of not being hurried. The first single "Crazy in Love" (featuring apparent fiancé Jay Z) opens the album and sets the quality bar high. Catchy, high octane and so, so now, it's the perfect club song. Then it's down to business with "Naughty Girl", a teasing track built around Donna Summer's erotic "Love to Love You Baby"--Beyoncé goes from soul-pop kid to sexually mature woman in three minutes. The hip-hop of "Star" has a N*E*R*D feel, with Outkast's Big Boi undoubtedly responsible for pushing the track into rock/funk territory, a little out of the way of usual Destiny's Child fare. Sean Paul, fast replacing Busta Rhymes as the omnipresent guest star, takes over on "Baby Boy", riding a fashionably eastern-flavoured beat (not unrelated to the famous Diwali rhythm) around Beyoncé's vocals. The ballad with Luther Vandross is tender without overdosing on sugar, while the astrological cut "Signs", with Missy Elliott, is another standout. Closing track "Daddy" finds Beyoncé crooning over a psychedelic piece of jazz funk, taken from cult 1970s artist Shuggie Otis, whom Beyoncé has been citing as an inspiration. Surprisingly, Beyoncé is the last member of Destiny's Child to release a solo album. The wait has been worthwhile. --Jake Barnes

Yawn! Thank goodness for digital music stores..., 2008-09-20
Beyoncé was always going to be the most famous one of Destiny's Child, taking creative control behind the group, she was and still is a huge star.
I imagine most people will have bought this album on the basis of the strong singles. This however doesn't stop her producing a really bad debut record.
After the singles, the rest of the album heads into slow jam / ballad territory which really bogs the record down and makes it quite boring.
Download the songs you like and forget the rest.
How slow delivery ruins Birthdays, 2009-03-11
In stock and ready for delivery the sight said, how then did it take over two weeks for delivery??
Would give it 2,5, 2009-09-03
I had hope that this album with be very up-tempo,full of energy and i was very dissapointed. My version has 16 song, but 11,5 songs from this album are ballads, and with this i do not mean good,powerful ballads, but songs which make you wanna stop listening to whole album and just listen to the first four songs.
After listening to first four songs i though the album will be great,but for me it is a big dissapoitment. I am Sasha Fierce or B day are far much better. Just love them and Beyonce.
B's best effort, 2009-01-23
This is Beyonce's best effort to date. Her follow up Cds have been good but nothing on this one.
Best tracks:
Signs
Crazy in Love
Naughty Girl
Dangerously in Love
Love it!!, 2009-09-05
At first agreed with the view that it was full of slow ballads that sent me to sleep however after giving it a few more listens it soon become evident that the ballads are all individually great songs with the slight exception of 'Yes'. Rest of the tracks are also fantastic. This is an album i still love just as much as when it first came out!!
