MY RANKING OF BEYONCÉ’S SOLO STUDIO ALBUMS

#1 - “4″

The “4″ album marks the beginning of the adult phase of Beyoncé’s solo career. This album, in my most humblest of opinions, has features her best vocals to date. 

My Top 3 Songs of “4″ 

“Countdown”

“Dance For You”

“Love On Top”

#2 - “BEYONCÉ”

My second favorite Beyoncé album is her self-titled album. I will always remember where I was and what I was doing when this album dropped. While the concept of doing a music video for every song is something Beyoncé did with the “B’Day” album, this is the best version of a video album. 

My Top 3 Songs of “BEYONCÉ″

“Jealous”

“***Flawless”

“Rocket”

#3 - LEMONADE

Again, I will always remember where I was and what I was doing when “Lemonade” debuted on HBO. While this is Beyoncé ‘s best conceptual album, I am ranking it third because I feel like I listen to “4″ and self-titled more than I do “Lemonade”. I love how incredibly black this album is and how it’s a celebration of black women.

My Top 3 Songs of “LEMONADE″

“Pray You Catch Me”

“6-Inch”

“Sorry”

#4 - DANGEROUSLY IN LOVE

I’d always liked Beyoncé as a part of Destiny’s Child so I was quite excited to see what she would do when she went solo. I wasn’t too crazy about her solo song “Work It Out” for the Austin Powers: Goldmember soundtrack - however, when “Crazy in Love” was released, I knew her first album was going to be something special. This is a classic album and it’s the perfect first album for a solo artist. 

My Top 3 Songs of “DANGEROUSLY IN LOVE″

“Crazy in Love” (Featuring Jay-Z)

“Signs” (Featuring Missy Elliott

“Dangerously in Love”

#5 - B’DAY

This album is banger after banger after banger. “B’Day” is such a confident album plus I liked that we got to see an edgier side of Beyoncé on such songs as “Resentment” and “Ring the Alarm”. Overall, a first-class album.

My Top 3 Songs of “B’DAY″

““Get Me Bodied (Extended Version)”

“Resentment”

“Upgrade U” (Featuring Jay-Z)

#6 -I AM...SASHA FIERCE”

I really enjoy this album but the reason I am ranking “I Am...Sasha Fierce” so low is there are at least five songs I skip when I revisit this album. After “Ave Maria” I really don’t care for the rest of the songs on the “I Am” portion of the two-disc album. This is Beyoncé’s most mainstream album to date. 

My Top 3 Songs of “I AM...SASHA FIERCE″

“Video Phone”

“Disappear”
