- This is a CD Single for House Music Fans

If you are into hip hop, you will probably only like the album version. The other tracks on this single are house remixes and will appeal to a completely different audience. The Freemasons Club mix is a disco house mix and it virtually removes all the hip hop stylings of the song. Naturally, this will not appeal to Beyonce's base audience, but for the house lovers, this is magic. For those who are not familiar, Freemasons have been turning the club scene upside down for the past year, or so, having remixed Faith Evan's "Mesmerized", Jamiroquai's "Don't Give Hate A Chance", Heather Headley's "In My Mind" (Freemasons mix was never released on CD), Supafly, Inc. "Moving Too Fast", and most recently, Luther Vandross' "Shine". There are samples of the Freemasons' mix of Shine on the "Ultimate Luther Vandross" CD around on the web. Although, there are not many other samples of their work available, the Freemasons remix singles are widely popular in Europe, and largely ignored by the US market, since we have veered in the hip hop/rap direction. However, they are well worth searching for. If you are a house fan, I think you should check the Deja Vu remixes out.

- It's OKAY

Yeah, "Deja Vu" is just okay. It's not fantastic, it's not bad, it's just okay but forgetable. Beyonce's voice sounds really strained towards the middle of the song.I keep hearing that "Deja Vu" has a Michael Jackson "Off The Wall" vibe to it, but I guess I missed it becauses I don't hear any resemblence. It actualy sounds more like the remix to "Crazy In Love." Jay-Z doesn't add anything to the song either. Other than that I recommend listening to "Deja Vu" by Dionne Warwick, Teena Marie, or Lord Tariq and Peter Gunz.

- Well here's another one

Well, Beyonce did it again...another cd but only this time it didn't compliment her at all. She said that she put this cd together in 2 weeks-well it sure sounds like it!! It's not your typical Beyonce cd. Now, don't get me wrong I'm all for Beyonce I've liked her since way back Destiny's Child but this cd just doesn't do her any justice. Even though I think this cd is not good it will probably go platinum just because it's BEYONCE and everybody wants to see what she's come up with since she hasn't been out in a while. All in all, I would not waist my money on this. Right now, I'm rating this as a "must play over and over and over again to like it" in other words it's really going to have to grow on me. Did I mention over and over again??

- Reminds me of pure flavor and good medicine (3&1/2 stars)

Beyonce got it going on. Even though the song samples Teena Marie's "Square Biz", it shows her moving into a new evolution, a new era, some more charismatic-ish. Another point enuff fighting about Beyonce and what her relationship and collabo with no other than Mr. President himself, Jay-Z, Hova or Jigga (aka real name Shawn Carter or S. Carter), can't ya'll get a break or so? Don't get me wrong, I'm always trying to help. Love the arrangements, nice horns by the way, is more a'la Tina Turner meets Donna Summer. Beyonce can do it all. She's truly one of a kind. Don't have her latest Disc yet. But I approve 100% as a songwriter, producer, actress, enterpreneur, and mostly the fastest-working businesswoman.

Surely gettin into my Guts.
