Description
Two decades after its original premiere, Beyoncé marks 20 years since her second album B’DAY with a special anniversary edition that expands the project with remastered sound, new songs, rare B-sides and Spanish-language recordings.
First released on 4 September 2006, B’DAY established Beyoncé not only as a vocalist, but also as a songwriter, producer and artist with a clear vision of her own. The album combines a powerful R&B foundation, hip-hop elements, live instruments and strong percussive sound, and songs such as “Déjà Vu”, “Irreplaceable” and “Get Me Bodied” have become among the emblematic titles in her catalogue.
B’DAY (20th Anniversary Edition) includes newly remastered versions of the original songs, as well as additional recordings, among them “MORNING DEW (DONK)”, “Can I Watch You”, produced by Beyoncé and Pharrell, “My First Time”, as well as the rare “Lost Yo Mind”, “Creole” and “Back Up”.
The anniversary edition also places special emphasis on the Spanish-language sound with “Cuerpo Tumbao (Get Me Bodied)” feat. Maluma, which samples the classic Celia Cruz “La Negra Tiene Tumbao”, as well as “Irreemplazable (Como La Flor)” feat. Selena - a special duet realised with the approval of the heirs of Selena Quintanilla.
