Talk:Suga Mama

Vocal range

Even though the music sheet says that her vocal range spans up to D5, she actually hits a couple of G5s at 3:02 and 3:12 (the peak notes when she sings the last "Yes"). So I edited the vocal range but I didn't know how to reference the song itself. I mean, do we need a source when the notes are clearly hit at those points in the song? — Preceding unsigned comment added by 190.194.114.115 (talk) 03:27, 9 May 2016 (UTC)

NOT a single!

This song was not released as a single! It had a music video, but that does not make it a single! —Preceding unsigned comment added by 64.81.22.110 (talk) 01:26, 18 April 2008 (UTC)

Suga Mama should be included in B'Day

I think there is absolutely no need for an own article. It can be merged into the B'Day article. —Preceding unsigned comment added by Malcolmo (talk • contribs) 18:26, 28 September 2007 (UTC)

Re-created

Well, there seemed to be enough information about this single for an article independent of the main album page, so I re-created it from the redirect. If anyone knows of any other sources that could be used to expand it further, please add them. Extraordinary Machine 03:30, 2 August 2007 (UTC)

Does it have any physical release??? BritandBeyonce 09:53, 2 August 2007 (UTC)

Not that I know of. I think it was released on a strictly promotional basis, with, of course, the song available to download from places such as iTunes as an album track. Extraordinary Machine 20:29, 2 August 2007 (UTC)

I see. Hey! Is the cover a fan made only or official??? BritandBeyonce 07:54, 9 August 2007 (UTC)

Removed from singles chronology

The song "Suga Mama" was NOT a released officially as a single from B'Day. Like songs "Upgrade U" and "Freakum Dress", it recieved attention independent of the album, but it should not under any circumstances be referred to as a single. It is simply misleading. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 74.1.175.126 (talk) 21:32, 8 September 2008 (UTC)
