Beyoncé Marks Her Birthday With a 27-Track 'B'Day' Reissue Featuring a Posthumous Selena Duet
The 20th-anniversary deluxe edition adds Spanish-language re-recordings, unreleased b-sides and a first-ever collaboration with Maluma.
Beyoncé rang in her birthday last week by releasing a 20th-anniversary deluxe edition of "B'Day," expanding her 2006 breakout album into a 27-track collection with remastered audio, previously released bonus tracks and new Spanish-language re-recordings.
The reissue includes "Cuerpo Tumbao (Get Me Bodied)," her first-ever collaboration with Colombian star Maluma, and "Irreemplazable (Como La Flor)," a duet built around vocals from the late Selena Quintanilla with the singer's estate's approval, according to Billboard. Also included is "Can I Watch You," produced with Pharrell, and "My First Time," a track originally recorded for her debut solo album but cut before release.
A $149.98 four-LP vinyl set rounds out the release, complete with a 60-page commemorative booklet and two collectible art prints. The original "B'Day" arrived September 4, 2006, and became one of the defining records of Beyoncé's early solo career.
