Sean Garrett: “Beyonce Is Interested In Making Party Music”

beyonce Sean Garrett: Beyonce Is Interested In Making Party Music

It looks like Beyonce is getting ready to take everybody back to the dance floor. In a recent interview with Music Mix producer/songwriter Sean Garrett revealed that the dynamic diva is in fact working on making more of the “party music” that defines most of her biggest hits. Garrett previously worked with Beyonce to make ‘Get Me Bodied’, ‘Diva’ and ‘Upgrade U’. Check out what he had to say below:

“I am going in the studio with Beyoncé this week to work on her next record,” Garrett told the Music Mix at Sunday’s MTV Video Music Awards. “I think we are doing a lot of up-tempo records for this one. She’s in such a good place right now in life that she is interested in making party music, definitely.” {Source}

Beyonce working on party music? How shocking! It seems blatantly obvious that Beyonce is intent on accumulating as many hits as she can without actually taking a risk and crafting a timeless album that has actual artistic depth. It’s disappointing to see someone as incredibly talented as her not tap into her full potential as an artist and make songs that impact people’s lives instead of just making them shake their backsides.

Artists like Michael Jackson and Mariah Carey have proven time and again that it is possible to top the charts while singing songs with actual meaning (see: ‘Man In The Mirror’ and ‘Hero’). If only Beyonce would show the same kind of growth with her musical material that she has shown with her astounding vocal performances and stage shows.

Then again, everybody doesn’t have to be inspirational; some people try to change lives through motivational lyrical themes while others do it through making upbeat/fun songs. If the latter is the lane that Ne-Yo thinks Beyonce has conquered then he might be right.
