According to The-Dream, Beyoncé just wants to be "regular and okay" on her new album

  • February 28, 2013
  • Brad O'Mance

Beyonce newThe-Dream's been chatting away some more about this seemingly mythical new Beyoncé album, this time to MTV.

"There's no par­tic­u­lar sound that I think we're shooting for, we're just trying to make music that feels good," the 'Shawty Is Da Shit' hitmaker 'explained'.

He also said the pair wanted music that reflected who she actually is as a person and not just something to help boost her already-quite-good sales.

"If you seen the HBO thing [doc­u­ment­ary Life Is But A Dream], which was great, we had been talking about doing something that showcases who she is and what she wants because we see those figures that are so out of the stra­to­sphere," he continued.

In possibly one of the most ridicu­lous state­ments every said in relation to a globe-strad­dling pop megastar, he added: "She's just shooting to be regular and okay and not trying to appease everybody."

The album's title, release date and first single have yet to be confirmed, which is getting a bit annoying now.
