Beyonce Album Update: Sasha Fierce Is In The Building!!!


There have been so many questions about Beyonce's upcoming album... Even once she confirmed the release date, everyone was still confused as to which direction she was going to go in. Well, it has just been confirmed that she will be going in TWO different directions, with TWO different disks, from TWO different people.

Huh?

Beyonce Giselle Knowles is actually going to release a double disk set... The first of which is titled I Am Beyonce and the second is titled I Am Sasha. I Am Beyoncé will feature a predominate classic R&B/Jazz sound while Sasha Fierce's disc, entitled I Am Sasha will have a hip-hop/dance sound.

If you remember, a while ago, waaaaaay before the days of kiddunot.com, Beyonce said that when she performs she channels Sasha, her fierce Alterego. Well, she is finally giving Sasha a time to shine! And I'm not mad at all, because I know she had to have channeled Sasha in the "Single Ladies" video, which is fierce as hell!

To correspond with the double release, Columbia Records produced a website for Sasha Fierce: Who Is Sasha Fierce? It asks fans to call and try to describe Sasha. It also states that her "true identity" will be released at a later date.

The official tracklisting of I Am Beyonce/I Am Sasha is listed below:
