Destiny's Child: Live in Atlanta (2007) Review

Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)After watching it 5 times now in 4 days, I can honestly say that Beyonce has emerged not on ly as a star of her time, but as a star of all times. I would put her right up there with Aretha, Patty, and Tina Marie. Her contemporaries, Badu, Ciera, Keys, I am afraid, become Pippen-to-Jordan like in their shortcomings. The girl -- correct that -- fully grown and fine woman is a Diva. This DVD confirms it.
I know, I know, everyone wants to reserve judgement, and judge a body of work before proclaiming a neophyte a Diva. Tune into Dangerously in love on this DVD, and then tell me she is not ready for the baton. Tina, and Aretha in their prime could have matched the rendition, maybe, and Patty may be able to pull it off today. But, they never could have pulled it off looking as good as Beyonce. And don't tell me looks don't matter...this is entertainment, and her looks are supremely entertaining.
Oh yeah, the other two. Kelly, and Michelle were good. Singing gospel, Michelle, was clearly in her element. She will not make a dime as a table dancer though, poor guy, gets pulled up on stage to sit next to the guy getting "catered" by Beyonce...so close, but yet so far. If Kelly asks the audience to help her one more time during her solo, I am going to peremenently edit her out of my DVD. Michelle should get more mic time, but since Kelly is an original DC I guess loyalty wins out...not on my remote though...can we say fast forward.
As far as singers/entertainers, unless Stevie reterns to form some time soon, or the spirit of Hathaway, Gaye, Ripperton, Redding, or Lady Day enhabits another human in the near future, Beyonce is it. High praise I know, but who else is dancing through an entire show, and singing (on key)? I submit her performance in Bootylicious to cap off my thesis.
I welcome solid debate, but come correct. I will.

Destiny Fulfilled Review

Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)First off I would like to say that the CD is bangin.
If half the people that reviewed this album would have listened to the words, then maybe they might have like the CD better. Not to hate on nobody or nothin, but I mean lets listen people.
When DC first came out with the album they said, Ima put it in caps for ya: (THIS CD IS A STORY ABOUT A WOMAN AND HER RELATIONSHIP WITH HER MAN, AND THE OUTCOME OF IT)!!!!!! If you did not catch that, then that may be the reason why you can not get the flow of the CD.
From begining to end the ladies were telling us a story. Do I have to break it down to ya???
They talked about what type of man they wanted (Soilder)
To how he could not keep up in bed (Loose My Breath)
And now that they have their Soilder, how she wants to treat him (Cater 2 U)
To how she misses him when he is gone (T- shirt)
To why he doesn't act the same, and seems to no longer be interested anymore (Is She The Reason)
And how he cheated on her w/ some one else, and her friends are tryin to tell her she needs to let him go(Girl)
To how they cant let go of a cheating man (Bad Habit)
And how they finally let him go and how hes gonna miss her (If)
To how they are rid of him (Free)
And how they were so hurt by what he did and now they are (Through With Love)
To how they finally met some one who really cares for them so now they have found true (Love)
That is the whole CD in a Nutshell. If you could not follow the CD then this may help.........So now you can re-listen to the CD and hopefully it will help. I really think the CD was very creative in how it was put together about women go through relationships w/the good and bad. I can listen to the CD all the way through. So my opion is listen to the words and the CD in its entirty and then decide if you like it.
Peace........~Lata~

Beyonce: The Beyonce Experience Live (2007) Review

Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)Much can be said about today's artists and the assembly-line fashion in which they are produced, packaged and marketed. Thankfully, Beyonce is not from that mold. The test of any great musical performer is how well their performance can hold up in front of a live audience, away from the safety of music video magic. The Beyonce Experience is one of those rare live performances where if you weren't convinced of the hype surrounding an artist beforehand -- you will be afterwards.
I saw this concert live in Chicago, IL and it was wonderful to find this DVD; it captures every moment of that amazing concert experience. Unlike others where the show relies heavily on stage production and quick edits to hide the weakness of the performance, The Beyonce Experience is one of those rare concert video's that put you right in the experience using camera angles that allow you to actually SEE THE PERFORMANCE.
From the opening in which Beyonce asks her Los Angeles audience, "...are you ready to be entertainnnnnneeeddd!!!," The Beyonce Experience is a magnum opus of all the great work she's compiled throughout the years as lead singer in Destiny's Child to her present solo efforts. Although brief, this concert DVD features brief guest appearances by Jay-Z, Kelly Rowland and Michelle Williams. Beyonce brings the heat with every track with exceptional performances on: Crazy in Love, Flaw's N All, Irreplaceable, Jumpin' Jumpin' and Soldier. Even the interludes by her all female band and her dance troupe are crowd pleasers.
The Blu-Ray image is presented in beautiful 1080p and a 1:78.1 aspect ratio so if you have a 16:9 widescreen television (or digital projector in my case); it fills your screen completely without letterboxing. The Dolby 5.1 sound substantially captures her vocals, the music and the crowd's excitement. The PCM audio will drive the neighbors to call the police on you because of the explosive sound quality. For the Blu-Ray fans who like all those fancy little extras, sorry you'll be disappointed. The video is a direct port of the DVD version. Even still, running at a lengthy two hours and ten minutes, for the price this is hands down one of the best concert experiences any artist has ever offered. It's a must for any MUSIC FAN and Beyonce fan alike.

Destiny Fulfilled: 2005 Tour Edition Review

Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)As we all know, Destiny's Child's new album is MORE than great! Any time we can get anything with them in it...whether it be videos, or cd's...we jump at the chance. The description says that there is LIVE footage from their '04/'05 concert on this...when in reality it's from their old concert (as seen in "Destiny's Child World Tour" DVD). I ordered this item thinking it was new footage from the '05 tour like the description says and was very disappointed that it wasn't. I hope they do release a DVD of their newest tour when they've finished touring. It would be wonderful to experience it again! Long live DC3!!!!!

I Am...Yours. An Intimate Performance at Wynn Las Vegas(2CD/1DVD) Review

Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)This is a must get CD/DVD set if you are a Beyonce fan! I went to one of Beyonce's I Am... Tour concerts over the summer, but I did not get to attend this intimate Las Vegas show, therefore it's a great honor for me and those who missed the concert to enjoy it on CD/DVD.
The Las Vegas set list is very different from the regular concert set list - the Las Vegas concert has more acoustic set for the first part, and for the second part, Beyonce connected her songs with a story of her career.
The acoustic set includes Beyonce's hit singles such as "Halo", "If I Were A Boy", and "Irreplaceable", and also her lesser known songs like "Scared of Lonely", "Resentment", and "Satellites". This acoustic arrangement really made the songs more intimate and showcased Beyonce rather nicely. The acoustic version of "Sweet Dreams" is surprisingly good!
The second part of the concert is the upbeat/dancing part of the concert. Beyonce started her career story with her Destiny Child's hit singles medley, including "No No No", "Bugaboo", "Independent Women", and "Bootylicious", etc. Then she transitioned the segment into the "Dangerously In Love" era with songs such as "Crazy In Love" and "Naughty Girl". For the finale, Beyonce performed B-Day's "Get Me Bodied" and her 2009 smash single, "Single Ladies".
The concert flowed very well, and Beyonce's energy was beaming throughout the concert (her bands, dancers, and crew were superb to have put this concert together in such a short time!) This CD/DVD also contains a documentary on how the concert was put together. This concert collection is definitely worth the investment! Now Beyonce only needs to release the regular tour version so we get to see more Sasha Fierce, because songs such as "Ego", "Diva", "Freakum Dress", and "Radio" were not included in the Las Vegas shows. 5 STARS!

Deluxe three disc (two CDs + DVD) edition of the R&B diva's live album featuring a bonus DVD. When Beyonce takes the stage, there's no doubt that you are watching and hearing a rare talent that transcends genres and inspires people of all ages and race. From up-tempo Soul workouts to beautiful Pop ballads, Beyonce makes it look and sound so easy, yet there is so much more than meets the eye: she reaches in and touches the heart and soul of each and everybody in the room. This set features an intimate performance at the Wynn Hotel in Las Vegas. The two CDs feature a total of 20 tracks while the DVD offers the show and more.

The Beyoncé Experience - Live (2007) Review

Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)Once you have seen Beyonce' Knowles live in concert, you will have a new respect for her. I had the pleasure of attending "The Beyonce' Experience" when it came to Washington, DC, and since then, I have adored her even more. When Destiny's Child released their first single, "No, No, No", it was crystal clear that Beyonce' was not only the star of the group, but also the hardest working one and the one with the most potential. With this concert on DVD, she proves my stated point. Throughout the duration of the show, Beyonce' didn't miss a beat, nor did she forget a lyric, nor did I see much sweat! She made it look so easy, and that impressed me a great deal.
When she first steps onto the stage, she asks the crowd if they are ready to be entertained. She, without a doubt, entertains for each minute of the two hours that she is performing! It's not easy to keep 20,000 people entertained for two hours, but somehow Beyonce' manages to accomplish this task.
Beyonce' performs all of her biggest hits and also gives us many doses of Destiny's Child's music. "Get Me Bodied" stands out in my mind as one of the best performances because there was non-stop choreography, very creative outfits (she had on black and yellow, hence, her nickname is Bee), and it was simply an energetic performance. "Crazy in Love", "Me, Myself and I", and "Speechless" are other highlights. I loved the simplicity of the "Flaws and All" performance. She sounded great, but she incorporated so many emotions with just one song, and it was very touching to watch (how can she make herself cry on cue, on stage??) "Irreplaceable" is another highlight. Not because she did anything fancy or gaudy, because she didn't, but I love the crowd participation she included, and I liked how she pointed random individuals out from the audience (I.E., she said, "I see you over there with that Beyonce' poster!")
In all honesty, I could go on and on boasting about this DVD, but to really bring into fruition what I am saying, you will have to see it. This concert is recommended by me, no questions. "Are you ready to be entertained?"

Destiny's Child - World Tour Review

Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)michelle, beyonce, and kelly all give the performance of their lives. actually, the tour of their lives. just oiver a year after their world tour, music world music and sony dvd have released this dvd featuring their 2002 concert set.

the show starts with independent women, featuring amazing fire effects and dancing. the shiny gold costumes accompany dc as they perform imdependant women, no no no, bills bills bills, get on the bus,and nasty girl (their dancers dressed as "nasty girls").
when they return to stage, they are wearing stunning red and diamond gowns, as they peform emotions, heard a word (michelle solo), ohh child (kelly solo), and dangerously in love/work it out (beyonce's solo's). after an acappela gospel medley that blows you off your seat,a dance break featuring the male dancers is on as the ladies change.
as they dance and sing bootylicious, say my name, jumpin jumpin, and a rendition of missy elliots "get ur freak on", michelle, beyonce and kelly all wear purple and silver tassled mini skirts and silver diamond bra tops. their dancers are leather clad.
when they re emerge for the finale, dc wear jungle grass skirts and amazon tops, and their dancers are all wearing jungle themed clothes too. they all blow you away with the dance for "survivor", and a bongo drum solo buy the 3 of them tops it off. then, onstage, they remove the jungle clothes to reveal graffiti, diamond denim mini shorts and tops to perform "happy face", the huge finale featuring happy faced balloons falling from the roof.
dc do a great job at this concert tour, which features live vocals, live band, and dancers, along with special stage effects and lighting to die for. there are also costume changes and solo songs.
add to this an array of special features, and you have a PERFECT dvd. but this dvd, you will not be dissapointed :-)
