New Beyoncé CD A Big Bomb?
You know it’s a slow news day when I’m forced to report that Bey-Bey’s new CD, “4,” is rumored to be a big stinker. According to that unimpeachable source Page Six, Columbia Records executives feared “the album could be a dud after she refused to return to the studio to re-record new tracks.”
“They’re very nervous about Beyoncé’s new record,” an industry insider told Page Six. “It doesn’t have the hit songs that her fans are used to. They asked her to make changes, but she said no.”
Bracing for the worst, Columbia suits are strategizing in case of slower sales and have had “quiet discussions” about the reunion of Destiny’s Child.
“Beyoncé’s career has stalled a bit,” a source told us. “Columbia seems to think they can get some mileage out of a comeback record with all of the girls.” Another source tells us Destiny’s Child could start recording together as early as October, with a suggested album title “Family Reunion.”
