Beyonce Upgrade U Featuring Jay-Z

Music Video Review

The music video for "Upgrade U" by Beyonce has been an audience favorite since the release of her sophomore album. It can be seen on TV and online by thousands of fans all over the world. In this song, Beyonce is proposing her ability to help a man develop professionally and personally. She lists her offerings in an attempt to "Upgrade" someone. The song is pretty hip and gets a lot of airplay on the radio. However, the "Upgrade U" music video by Beyonce may be better than her single.

Beyonce is everywhere and has millions of fans, which makes the "Upgrade U" music video speedily appealing. The singer is known for showing off new hairstyles and fashions. This makes the "Upgrade U" music video great to watch even if you do not like the song. In the video, Beyonce does the double personality thing, which I am not always a great fan of. She recites Jay-Z's lyrics to the song while dressed like a man as the "Upgrade U" music video starts.

Beyonce is a pretty cool singer and performer, so the "Upgrade U" music video is alright to watch just because she is in it. Aside from that, there is nothing really special about this particular music video. Beyonce sings her "Upgrade U" song while emerging out of water and then swimming in it. There is no need to worry about a pool full of boredom with the "Upgrade U" music video. She does more than swim around in water. Beyonce performs a few dance moves with background dancers that exhibit confidence in her "upgrading" skills.

She also moves around inside of what looks like a Rolls Royce automobile and has some other glamour scenes as well. I am curious to know what the significance is of Beyonce sitting in the trunk of a car while performing some of the lyrics. These scenes look very odd, especially for the concept of this song. How are you going to "Upgrade" anyone while sitting in the trunk or a car? Another odd portion is Beyonce's "Upgrade U"music video is the small reptile that walks across a few scenes. What is the significance of the alligator walking alongside Beyonce while she is on the floor?
