T h e re 's p ro lific , and then
there's Beyonce.
The Grammy-winning icon-in­
waiting has spoken out about her
upcoming album, a labor of love
she's spent the past 12 months
w orking on and one s h e ’s
"poured [her] heart and soul
into."
Make that heart and soul and
songwriting skills.
Knowles said she recorded 70
songs for her new album.
"I have taken the time so I can
create my sound, something that
says who I am at this stage in my
life," the 26-year-old says. "It is
my baby."
The R&B diva continues in full
gush mode, saying the album has
turned into her most time-con­
suming professional endeavor to
date.
"It is the most time I have spent
on any project since my first
records as a member of Destiny's
Child when I was 15 years old. I
have recorded over 70 songs and
have created a sound that reveals
all of me."
And, rest assured, there's a lot
more to reveal of Mrs. Jay-Z.

Beyoncé Knowles and her
husband Jay-Z.
"I am in a different place right
now and I wanted people to see
the many sides of me. The music
is upbeat for the dance, fun side
and it is reflective, passionate
and serious for the personal side.
I have taken risks here. I am not
afraid and my music will explain
it all."
But critics be warned: Knowles
is not to be pigeonholed.
"There is no label or tag on my
sound. It's me and I am so ex­
cited to share it with the world
on Nov. 18."
She's expected to kick off a
world tour in support of her third
solo album next spring.
