Beyoncé New Album 2013 Release: Mrs. Carter Recorded 80 Songs For Self-Titled Album [VIDEO]
Beyoncé reveals more details about her platinum-selling visual album, which is expected to reach No. 1 for the third consecutive week on the Billboard 200 chart, on the third mini art feature video called "Part 3 Run N' Gun."
"When I started picking the songs that I gravitated towards, because I recorded about 80 songs," says the R&B diva. "It was the songs that were more effortless for me that stuck around that I still love that I loved a year ago when I recorded them."
Queen Bey then explains the making of "Drunk in Love," which took place while having a party with her husband Jay-Z, joined by producers Timbaland and Details.
"I kind of freestyled the verse, and Jay went in and he started flowing out his verse ... We just kind of had a party," she says. "It was so great, because it wasn't about any ego, we weren't trying to make a hit record ... We were just having fun ... And I think you can hear that in the record."
Yoncé continues by giving an inside look at the video shoot for the track, calling it the "most organic shoot I've ever done."
"I wanted to carry this idea of being in the moment and embracing mistakes and effortlessness into the videos," says Mrs. Carter. "I wish every video was like 'Drunk.'"
In addition, Beyoncé admits that she tried to "rebel against perfection" during the production of all the visuals for the album.
"We've been deciding what we're going to do as we're there," she says. "And it's something about that freedom that's different for me, because I usually plan things ... it's fun because you never know what's going to happen."
