Beyoncé Releases the B’Day 20th Anniversary Edition
The Beyoncé B’Day 20th anniversary release adds new and archival material to the album originally issued on September 4, 2006. The 31-track digital deluxe edition combines the original album with bonus recordings, Spanish-language versions, remixes and newly released collaborations.
The anniversary edition includes six previously unreleased recordings: “Morning Dew (Donk),” “Can I Watch You,” “My First Time,” “Lost Yo Mind,” “Creole” and “Back Up.” The tracklist also brings together material that had previously appeared as bonus tracks or related releases.
The release follows Beyoncé’s July rollout of “Morning Dew (Donk),” which was announced as part of the B’Day anniversary campaign. An earlier report on the track provides details on the anniversary rollout.
The original B’Day album contained songs including “Déjà Vu,” “Get Me Bodied,” “Upgrade U,” “Ring the Alarm,” “Kitty Kat,” “Freakum Dress,” “Green Light,” “Irreplaceable” and “Resentment.” The anniversary edition adds the previously released “CHECK ON IT,” “BEAUTIFUL LIAR” and “LISTEN” to the expanded tracklist.
Beyoncé described the original album as a project built around a large, percussive and energetic sound. She said she used live instrumentation and combined hip-hop and R&B elements through sampling while making the record.
Unreleased Songs Expand the Deluxe Tracklist
The Beyoncé B’Day 20th anniversary edition adds recordings that had not previously been released. “Can I Watch You” was produced by Beyoncé and Pharrell, while the other newly available tracks include “Morning Dew (Donk),” “My First Time,” “Lost Yo Mind,” “Creole” and “Back Up.”
The expanded tracklist also includes “Amor Gitano,” Spanish-language recordings and previously released remixes. These additions place material from different points in the album’s release history alongside the original songs and newly issued recordings.
Among the Spanish-language material are versions connected to songs from the original album. The release includes “Irreemplazable,” as well as Spanish versions of “Beautiful Liar,” “Listen,” “Get Me Bodied” and “If I Were a Boy.”
The edition also contains a Timbaland remix and a Norteña remix, giving the digital release additional versions beyond the original album sequence. The result is a 31-track collection rather than a simple remaster of the 2006 record.
Previously Unreleased Recordings
“Can I Watch You” is among the newly released songs with a specifically credited producer connection to Pharrell. The track was produced by Beyoncé and Pharrell, while the six unreleased recordings collectively provide material that was not part of the original B’Day release.
Maluma Collaboration Adds New Material to the Release
The anniversary edition introduces “Cuerpo Tumbao (Get Me Bodied)” featuring Maluma. The song is the first collaboration between Beyoncé and the Colombian singer and is included as new material on the expanded B’Day release.
“Cuerpo Tumbao” incorporates a sample of Celia Cruz’s “La Negra Tiene Tumbao.” Beyoncé produced the track with Edgar Barrera and Casta, with Ali Alvarez serving as co-producer.
The song is based on “Get Me Bodied,” one of the tracks from the original B’Day album. Its inclusion gives the anniversary edition a newly recorded collaboration while retaining a direct connection to the 2006 material.
Beyoncé’s collaborations have also extended to performances with Jay-Z. In July, she appeared during Jay-Z’s anniversary concert at Yankee Stadium, where she performed “Drunk in Love” with him.
Maluma’s appearance is one of two new collaborative elements specifically identified in the anniversary release. The other involves Selena Quintanilla, whose previously released vocals are used on a new Spanish-language version of “Irreplaceable.”
Selena Quintanilla Vocals Appear on Spanish “Irreplaceable”
The deluxe edition includes “Irreplaceable (Como La Flor),” a Spanish-language version featuring previously released vocals from Selena Quintanilla. Quintanilla’s estate approved the duet for the anniversary release.
Beyoncé had previously spoken about Selena’s influence on her connection to Spanish-language music. She remembered hearing the late singer on Houston radio and identified Quintanilla as an inspiration for her 2007 Spanish-language EP, Irreemplazable.
The new version connects “Irreplaceable,” one of the songs from B’Day, with Quintanilla’s previously recorded vocals. It also expands the album’s Spanish-language material beyond the recordings associated with the original release.
The anniversary tracklist includes additional Spanish recordings alongside “Irreplaceable (Como La Flor).” Those tracks include Spanish versions of “Beautiful Liar,” “Listen,” “Get Me Bodied” and “If I Were a Boy.”
Spanish-Language Tracks and Collaborations
The Spanish-language material forms a separate component of the expanded release, while the Maluma and Selena collaborations add two different approaches to the anniversary project. Maluma contributes newly recorded vocals to “Cuerpo Tumbao,” while Quintanilla’s previously released vocals appear on “Irreplaceable (Como La Flor).”
Remastered Songs and Updated Videos Complete the Edition
Beyoncé also remastered the B’Day recordings for the 20th-anniversary edition. The accompanying music videos were recolored and finished in 4K as part of the updated release.
The visual updates extend to the “Déjà Vu” video, which was revamped for the anniversary edition. The updated version features Jay-Z, who originally appeared on the song and its video.
The original album’s visual material is therefore included alongside revised versions rather than being presented only in its original form. The 4K finishing and recoloring apply to the videos associated with the anniversary release.
The anniversary edition brings together the remastered album, previously released bonus material, six previously unreleased recordings, Spanish-language versions, remixes and the new collaborations. Its 31-track digital format expands the original B’Day tracklist with material spanning recordings and releases associated with the album.
The original B’Day was released on September 4, 2006. Twenty years later, the anniversary edition adds newly available audio and updated visual material while retaining the album’s original songs.
Updated B’Day Visuals
The video updates include recoloring and 4K finishing, with the “Déjà Vu” visual receiving a revamped version. The anniversary project therefore updates both the audio recordings and the accompanying video material from the original album era.
