My First Time is a great Neptunes track - completely forgot it existed.

I can afford a $150 vinyl. But I'm not the target audience because I'm the same person who bought the act i and act ii vinyls and has no idea where they are

Brokehive get up!

Richhive seek help!

Not someone got crumbs in their pose boxes and you being left with nothing..

I don't want to be ungrateful (because all of the old bonus tracks I wanted to be there are there AND an unexpected, unreleased record)... but it was a mistake to leave out "Woman Like Me," "World Wide Woman," and "If." While the latter two are not the best... this should be a complete collection for that price.

The Spanish records should've stayed on Irremplazable to create vinyl space for the songs she had to bump off.

Chile the beehive is in shambles over these vinyl prices!

Maybe I'll get a severed finger with my cd instead of crumbs

either she did some reshoots since the Freakum Dress look is completely different or she used what I don't want her to use

To BEY or not to BEY

People keep saying that the cover/booklet pics are reshoots, but it does not look like her current face to me. Hopefully it's just an upscaled unreleased pic and not AI

the meltdowns if she used any AI during this.

i have so much to say about this release

i was excited since bday was my first beyonce album but damn the tracklist is a hot mess

i can understand why if was left out of the list (it was a song meant to replace still in love after the legal battle), but www that was part of the original deluxe release?

why are we adding the spanish version of move your body? a 2011 campaign mind you, donk out of place and only one new song

as much as i love the new cover for the deluxe/cd, it doesnt feel right, she just used that damn photo to fit into the animal back cover with the trilogy

back to the tracklist, she really hate us the cd gworls cause wdym no deluxe release on the cd? i aint buying that damn expensive vinyl now do I have a good vinyl to play that expensive ****

vinyl industry needs to DIE

I get that... but not at the expense of songs that now couldn't make the expanded edition.

I probably would've surprise-added a new song* to Irremplazable plus another Spanish re-recording, and also placed that EP / Vinyl for sale on the website.

*This would probably be a beautiful song in Spanish.

As for the re-recording... maybe "Flaws & All?"

i mean www is ass and if was just there to replace still in love

only song that really throws me off is mueve el cuerpo

only thing missing from the new edition is COLOR

look how mud the colors looks on the new picture compared to the original. the whole shoot was pretty colorful

@AccioEmpireBuilder I wonder if "Can I Watch You" could be the second track Cam Wallace worked with Bey alongside Upgrade U

I always forget Olivia Dean is Hive + a #beydaughter.

I would love that. "Upgrade U" is low-key the sleeper hit of the album, and I would appreciate another mid-to-uptempo gritty urban record over simply another funk record... unless Rich Harrison (and his masterful crate digging for samples) is involved.

I bought the deluxe vinyl. To be honest I only use the standard version of B'Day on Spotify sans Get Me Bodied Extended Mix. I don't know what any of those deluxe songs sound like and I don't want to! The real crime is no A Woman Like Me, which is one of her most underrated songs and isn't readily available for streaming on most platforms, you can't even buy it! She will pay for that!

now one last thing, why are we having a deluxe edition of a re release? likeeee not even mariah does this ****, she puts everything in 2/3 cds

cause it was never officially released

4LPs? Are y'all getting up and flipping the thing 8 times to listen to bday? Vinyl is a SCAM. rich people don't buy vinyl foolish people do. imagine the environmental damage done by that one girl shipping those millions and millions of worthless collectibles around the world to sit on shelves. at least our girl is only responsible for a small portion of that

She played by not putting World Wide Woman on here That was one of my all time favorites from the album when I was a kid. I can't wait to have Creole, Back Up and Lost Yo Mind on streaming!

I'm really tempted to purchase the deluxe vinyl...

99.9% sure they either edited the pics themselves (an insta teas nnn) or put it through AI to match her current features more but those are definitely not reshoots
