Ask Beyonce what she wants people to
hear when they listen to Dangerously In Love, her
debut solo album, and the multi-platinum-selling
pop/urban recording artist answers, "My range. I
want them to hear all of the musical influences from
hip-hop to rock to jazz, there's even a Shuggie Otis
sample. I want them to really hearthe talent. I know
that folks love me as a pop star. Now I want them to
understand me as an artist."
That they will. Musically challenging and lyrically
honest, Dangerously In Love is more than just a solo
CD from a superstar. It is everything you'd expect
from Beyonce and more than you could have hoped for.
