Rush&Molly report that Beyonce’s upcoming album is having a bit of trouble making her deadline with her record label.
The album which is due to be released on November 18 is due to be at the label on Wednesday morning (October 1) but a source says “it’s not going to be completed. She’s got to get it out early in the fourth quarter, when there’s so much competition among artists.”
It is reported that part of the delay could be because she has been hard at work on two new movies, including Obsessed and Cadaillac Records, another delay is a duet she is doing with Justin Timberlake, but the source says “two didn’t like the way it was turning out and kept doing it over until they got it right.”
The third problem is rumored that Beyonce and Max Gousse (who convinced her to take on Irreplaceable) are not getting along, but the singers father Matthew Knowles says “how would he not be involved? He’s the vice president of my company, and she’s recording with my company.”
The source did add some good news saying that “Jay-Z encouraged Beyoncé to bring in Jay Brown and Ty Ty [Tyran Smith] - both of whom have worked with red-hot singer Rihanna. ”
Rob Stringer, the head of Sony BMG says that “normally I would lie low, but we think the first two singles will be utterly huge. They’re two of the best songs of her career. Beyoncé is incredibly hardworking, and [the album] is 97%-98% done. It’ll be out before Nov. 20. Frankly, we think the whole record is going to be huge.”
Beyonce’s new singles If I Were a Boy and Single Ladies are set to premiere on Tuesday (October 7).
