I like both. "End of Time" is a better song overall, but "Grown Woman" is a bop.

I live for the video and her dancing.

QuoteAfrobeat might seem an unexpected genre to appear on a list of Beyonc??s musical inspirations. Even so, she had put together a series of unreleased tracks taking their musical cues from Nigerian multi-instrumentalist and afrobeat legend Fela Kuti, according to producer and Single Ladies co-writer The-Dream.

?We did a whole Fela album that didn?t go up,? The-Dream wrote, in an entry for Beyonc? song End of Time on lyric annotation site Genius. ?It was right before we did [album] 4. We did a whole different sounding thing ? about 20 songs. She said she wanted to do something that sounds like Fela.?
