Headline: Beyoncé celebrates birthday by releasing deluxe edition of B'Day album
Caption: To mark turning 45 this week, the music superstar announced on Friday that she would be releasing a 20th-anniversary deluxe version of her 2006 second studio album. In a statement, Beyoncé reflected on what it was like to record the original album two decades ago. "I wanted the album to be big, percussive, hard, up-tempo, and energized, and it was important to me that we used live instrumentation," she remembered. "Hip-hop was taking over at the time, but I was fighting to preserve the bridges, melodies, and harmonies that have always been at the heart of R&B.”
