Upgrade U (2007)

R&B goddess Beyoncé Knowles keeps the hit machine cranking with Upgrade U (2007), a Jay-Z collaboration that managed some action on the Billboard Hot 100 and R&B/Hip-Hop charts. Built on a sample from Betty Wright’s “Girls Can’t Do What the Guys Do,” Beyoncé’s R&B platter promises to improve her boyfriend’s style with everything from watches and jewelry to six-star penthouse suites. As Knowles cruises through the music video in a Rolls Royce, decked out in a gold minidress and vintage shades, she makes it known that her offer’s impossible to refuse.
