    An R&B classic, Beyoncé was making her mark here and showing us what she was made of, showing us that she was an album artist from the very start as well as someone with amazing singles. THIS album spawned classics like Crazy and Dangerously in Love, Baby boy and Naughty Girl and Me Myself and I, it was an insight into a 21/22 year old beyoncé’s view on love from a youthful almost naiveAn R&B classic, Beyoncé was making her mark here and showing us what she was made of, showing us that she was an album artist from the very start as well as someone with amazing singles. THIS album spawned classics like Crazy and Dangerously in Love, Baby boy and Naughty Girl and Me Myself and I, it was an insight into a 21/22 year old beyoncé’s view on love from a youthful almost naive sense as seen in her lyrics in songs like DIL and Gift from a virgo. The lyrics are mature and exciting, the production blends well with her light nasally tone and the flow and pacing from song to song work best in some areas more than others with it starting off vibrant and funky with “Crazy In Love” to it turning a bit more calm in “Be With You” and “Me, myself and I” then it kind of flip-flopping in the last 1/4 of the album. The best and strongest tracks are the 4 singles released as well as the the tracks “yes” “be with you” “the closer i get you” with the late Luther Vandross and the best song on the album “speechless” 6 minutes of pure passion and sexual tension. The More Weaker songs are “daddy” inspired by her father Matthew Knowles “Gift from a Virgo” which has a very fairy tale aura around it and the fun song “signs” featuring Missy Elliot, these songs aren’t bad by any means they just don’t stand as tall and strong as their peers on the album. This album as a unit is one of the best debut albums with most tracks feeling so we’re thought out and demanding, this is a glimpse into what beyoncé would become as we know her to be in 2023.… Expand

    Esse álbum é esplêndido, é aconchegante. Os toques e sons são calmantes, as melodias românticas, o poder que algumas faixas trazem…..É perigoso, romântico e sensual.

    ótimo debut. procurando sua identidade depois da separação do destiny's child, encontramos no dangerously in love uma artista tentando cobrir várias bases musicais, o que e em alguns momentos acaba desligando o consumidor. porém os - vários - hits são muito envolventes e os "deep cuts" causam fortes impressões. vocais impecáveis desde sempre porém neste álbum em específico, considerando oótimo debut. procurando sua identidade depois da separação do destiny's child, encontramos no dangerously in love uma artista tentando cobrir várias bases musicais, o que e em alguns momentos acaba desligando o consumidor. porém os - vários - hits são muito envolventes e os "deep cuts" causam fortes impressões. vocais impecáveis desde sempre porém neste álbum em específico, considerando o estilo vocal pelo qual beyoncé ficou conhecida posteriormente, há uma vontade de experimentar tecnicamente que instiga a evolução vocal da cantora.… Expand

    Her most underrated album and it's my third favorite! It might be boring for some people who don't like R&B ballads but I really loved the album. My favorite is Speechless.

    Debut album and she has one timeless song as "Crazy In Love" which is realy legendary. Despite of this she also has other hits like "Naughty Girl", "Baby Boy", "Me, Myself and I" which are great.
    Other songs are good, you can feel soul and r&b vibes that makes you feel good. "Speechless" and "Yes" just melts away me. Good job B.

    Estou dando nota 10 em todos os álbuns da Beyoncé porque ela merece. Com certeza, esse álbum debutante marcou a carreira. Não preciso citar os hinos, mas vou citá-los: Crazy in Love, Baby Boy, Naughty Girl. Eu amo você, Beyoncé.

    Beyonce at her core has proven to be a student of music, particularly of the R and B genre, but with each album she has experimented with other flavors.

    It is a warm and nice beginning for Beyoncé's career. It is definitely an introductory album with some catchy songs to make it remarkable. Dangerously In Love is a still hiding album.

    Not so impressive, but really show her vocal skills throughout the tracks - honor metion to Gift from Virgo - and give us a glimpsy into the diversity of beyoncé's range, musically, in the tracks Hip Hop Star and Speechless.

    Perhaps inevitably, the desperate urge to cover every musical base from dancefloor to soul-ballad means that there is barely a track here with any distinctive identity or even a tune.

    Things degenerate into a dreary stream of self-pitying/self-mythologising ballads. [Sep 2003, p.106]
