One side has songs that are more mainstream and another has my more traditional R&B songs for my fans who've been there the whole time.

Sasha Fierce” and her ealier solo albums that it includes more ballads at The Oprah Winfrey Show.

She told that she had co-written and co-produced over seventy songs. On her website, she wrote ”I am in a different place right now and I wanted people to see the many sides of me. The music is upbeat for the dance, fun side and it is reflective, passionate and serious for the personal side. I have taken risks here. I am not afraid and my music will explain it all. There is no label or tag on my sound. It's me and I am so excited to share it with the world on November 18”
