I would have preferred Revolution as the album title.
I think I might have as well, but I think the point is to make people realise this is only her fourth album and she's already a worldwide icon :lol:

Same here. :(

I love how she explains the album. Sounds very creative. I would reserve my comments about the electro pop comment until I hear the album in full. Especially since with all due respect the first single sounds nothing like this description. I'm still however anticipating this release.
Azealia Banks is the future!
RIP Whitney!

I actually really like the title, its much better than 'Revolution'. Plus I love how it means something special to her.

I really wasn't expecting such an announcement today! I'm glad her team seem to be getting things together with the announcements tying in with the upcoming promo.

Her description of the album sounds amazing. The soul, the afrobeat influences, the 90's R&B inspired tracks, the grittiness in her voice - I love it.

I have got to catch up on all the Beyoncé news from today now! She's bringing it! 8-)

This has significant meaning for Bey that's why she named her 4th album '4'

Beyonce born on 4/Sept
Jay-Z - 4/Dec
Tina - 4/Jan
Anniv. - 4/April/08

Oooh, I like the title!

Anything tops "I Am... Sasha Fierce" which is one of my least favourite album names EVER, but "4" I REALLY like. :wink:

Ah duh... she basically has a new team of management. She's obviously not doing it by herself.

It would have been so amazing if "who run this (girls)" was not leaked, and after all this hype it premiered. And I like her album title.

Your film career recently took an interesting turn. You've gone from "Dreamgirls" to "Cadillac Records" to "Obsessed," and now you're working with Clint Eastwood on the latest remake of "A Star is Born."

It's a dream come true; I'm still in shock that it's really going to happen. Clint Eastwood is clearly the absolute best, and I'm so honored and humbled. I was in no rush to do another movie unless it was the right film, and I didn't even want to touch "A Star is Born" unless it was with him. I actually learned that this project was in existence, and kind of claimed it. I want to get to work right now!

"A Star is Born" is an appropriate choice, as it follows the rise of a female singer to stardom. What have been your milestones on the way up?

I would say when Destiny's Child worked with Wyclef Jean on "No, No, No Part 2" - we were so young and green and in awe of everything, and couldn't wait to sing for him. And winning our Grammy for "Say My Name" was incredible. I remember hearing the song on the radio for the first time: I felt like "Wow, this sounds like a classic - something that will be around forever." Those melodies and that fast, staccato way of singing created a new style; it inspired a whole movement in R&B. Being part of that was amazing.

Beyoncé has revealed the name of her upcoming album: "4."

In an exclusive interview with Billboard's Ray Rogers, the star says that the album's title was inspired by her fans. "Everywhere I look, I see them calling it '4,' she explains. "I had a whole other name and concept, but I keep seeing that the fans love the name '4,' and I think it would be a really nice thing to let them name the record."
