Riot Posted March 31 Share Posted March 31 (edited) Beyoncé album is missing tracks on vinyl, fans say Fans who pre-ordered Beyoncé's latest album on vinyl are reporting that five of its tracks have gone missing. But some of the best-received songs, including Ya Ya and Spaghetti, are reportedly not present on the vinyl edition. The BBC has contacted Beyoncé's representatives for comment. "I'm so sad," wrote one fan on Reddit, who would have paid £32 to pre-order the copy album from Beyoncé's website. The songs and interludes reported missing are: Spaghetti, Flamenco, The Linda Martell Show, Ya Ya and Oh Louisiana. It is not clear whether all vinyl copies are affected. Fans have also reported that CD copies are missing four tracks. The likely explanation is that Beyoncé added these songs late into the album's creation. "Address the mess. What happened?" said one, responding to a post on the official Beyoncé store Instagram account. "We need at least a discount refund, or be able to refund altogether since the CDs and vinyls delivered are not what was listed," added a second. https://www.bbc.com/news/entertainment-arts-68702870 Edited March 31 by Riot 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

americanlife Posted March 31 Share Posted March 31 (edited) It's ridiculous because the album is 79 minutes. A CD can fit 80 minutes, so they could've easily fit the whole album on there. The vinyl I could understand because the turn around time is longer and maybe those omitted tracks were finished last minute. CDs she could've gotten out faster.

G.U.Y. Posted March 31 Share Posted March 31 (edited) Cowboy Scammer? Nicki is Bey's ultimate peer? Hive claiming that the missing track vinyls and CDs are "pre-COVID" and will skyrocket in price over the years?

Tropez Posted March 31 Share Posted March 31 Yeah, I paid a lot of money for the vinyl. On top of that the shipping fees were insane. So it's unfair to not get the full product after paying so much. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I don't want to see this become a regular music industry practice now Seems like a way to rush the process or cut costs by pressing fewer LPs (in the case of PF2). It's not the end of the world over 4 songs (though Spaghetti and Ya Ya are kind of the best songs on the album…) but this is not a great story for Bey. I don't think it became a bigger story for Nicki because her fans are used to being harassed, abused, and taken advantage of in worse ways. Plus no one likes her fans. 17 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Bey'Knight Posted March 31 Share Posted March 31 She should've just put the additional tracks on a deluxe edition. I don't blame fans for being pissed off. Hopefully not all pressings were affected. 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

choerry Posted March 31 Share Posted March 31 I love Bey, but the QR code inside the vinyl packaging taking you to the track listing when it doesn't even have all the songs . I was so disappointed when mine arrived yesterday. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
