GROWN WOMAN " BEYONCE"

Finally the wait is over, and BEYONCE has decided to give us new music. We were teased in early April when her new Pepsi commercial was released, which featured a one minute snippet of the song GROWN WOMAN. This commercial left the Beyhive buzzing and wanting more, but for more than a month Beyonce did not release anything and decided to let her fans sweat it out. Last week KELLY ROWLAND released her new single Dirty Laundry, so it was assumed GROWN WOMAN release date would be pushed back for another month or so, but instead the full version of GROWN WOMAN was released monday night (May 20, 2013). 

The track was co-written by THE DREAM and produced by Timbaland. In this song Beyonce proclaims that she's a GROWN WOMAN and can do whatever she wants. This can be interpreted in ways. The media loves to put a limit on Beyonce and criticize things that she do, and her response is simple. SHE CAN DO WHATEVER SHE WANTS, she is a grown woman and not a child, therefore she does not need the approval of society when it comes to any decision she makes. 

This song will be inspiring to many women, simply because throughout life women are faced with many challenges. On a daily basis we have to deal with double standards. Men can do things and get away with it, but as soon as a woman does it, she is instantly judged for the action. GROWN WOMAN lets the world know that we as women will do WHATEVER WE WANT, whether we have your approval or not.  

The song has a very tribal feeling, and will definitely be performed to by many choreographers. I am listening to the song as I type this blog, and I can't stop moving my hips, so I can definitely see some hot choreo to this song in the future. GROWN WOMAN, will be added to the list of Beyonce's empowering songs for females such as SINGLE LADIES, AND GIRLS (RUN THE WORLD) . 

My favorite part of the song is when she sings 



"You really wanna know how I got it like that
Cause I got a cute face and my booty so fat
Go girl!
She got that bomb, that bomb
That girl!
Can get whatever she wants
Go girl!
She got that tight, that tight
Them boys!
They do whatever she like"

I love how Beyonce is so BOLD to sing about anything to include saying she got that BOMB BOMB. 

Check out the lyrics to the song below. 

Also don't forget to comment and let me know what you think of GROWN WOMAN and share this with your friends. 

[Verse 1]
I remember being young and so brave
I knew what I needed
I was spending all my nights and days
Laid back, daydreaming
Look at me, I'm a big girl now
Said I'm gonna do something
Told the world imma paint this town
Now bitches, I run this (Aah!)

[Pre-chorus]
Cause I put it
Down like that (2x)
And I'm making
All these racks (2x)
And I'm moving
Round like that (2x)
When I do it
I don't look back (2x)

[Chorus 1]
I'm a grown woman
I can do whatever I want
I'm a grown woman
I can do whatever I want
I could be bad if I want
I could do wrong if I want
I can live fast if I want
I can go slow all night long
I'm a grown woman
I can do whatever I want

[Verse 2]
They love  the way I walk
Because I walk with a vengeance
And they listen to me when I talk
Cause I ain't pretending
It took awhile now I understand
Just where I'm going
I know the world, and I know who I am
It's about time I show it

[Pre-chorus]

[Chorus 2]
I'm a grown woman
I can do whatever I want
I'm a grown woman
I can do whatever I want
I could be bad if I want
I can say what I want
I can live fast if I want
I can go slow all night long 
I'm a grow woman 
I can do whatever I want 
(whatever it is ) 

[Bridge]
I'm a grown woman
So I know how to ride it
I'm a grown woman
And I'm so erotic
I'm a grown woman
Look down, got you so excited
I'm a grown woman
Look at my body
It ain't no fun, if a girl can't have none
You really wanna know how I got it like that
Cause I got a cute face and my booty so fat
Go girl!
She got that bomb, that bomb
That girl!
Can get whatever she wants
Go girl!
She got that tight, that tight
Them boys!
They do whatever she like

[Instrumental/chanting]

[Outro - 11x]
I'm a grown woman
I can do whatever I want

I'm a grown woman
