Beyoncé's second album sold loads but less people seem to remember anything about it (there's no Crazy In Love or Single Ladies).
It's noticeable for being quite Jay Z influenced too, with him popping up all over the shop.
I think he also influenced the insane process behind making the album (quote brought to us by MTV News via wikipedia):
"She had multiple producers in Sony Studios. She booked out the whole studio and she had the biggest and best producers in there. She would have us in one room, we would start collaborating with one producer, [and] then she would go and start something else with another producer. We would bounce around to the different rooms and work with the different producers. It was definitely a factory type of process."Anyway, here are two tracks from the album that I really like:

Excellent songs, but the production is pretty awful considering all that effort. Except on Deja Vu, that's just killer.
