In the featured cover issue of Complex Magazine Beyoncé Knowles talked about the issues with radio in the twentieth century. The pop diva also discussed the effect her husbands music has on the industry and the community…

“Figuring out a way to get R&B back on the radio is challenging,” said Beyonce. “Everything sounds the same on the radio. With 4 I tried to mix R&B from the ’70s and the ’90s with rock ‘n’ roll and a lot of horns to create something new and exciting. I wanted musical changes, bridges, vibrata, live instrumentation, and classic songwriting.”

When asked about Jay-Z and the effect his music has on the population the pop diva told Complex: “Jay’s music is more than music. His lyrics have fathered generations,” she says of her husband of three years. “All that he has overcome gives millions so much hope. There are moments when I see his lips moving and I can see lyrics floating above his head and I think, ‘Wow! How did I get so lucky to be able to witness this level of genius so closely?’”
