Beyoncé’s sophomore classic could return to the Billboard 200’s top 10 two decades after its original No. 1 debut.
Twenty years later, Beyoncé’s B’Day may be heading back into the Billboard 200’s top 10.
According to Hits Daily Double, the classic album is projected to re-enter the chart at No. 6 with approximately 39,000 equivalent album units. The resurgence follows an expanded 20th-anniversary edition celebrating Beyoncé’s sophomore project.
Originally released in September 2006, B’Day debuted at No. 1 on the Billboard 200 after selling 541,000 copies during its opening week. It became Beyoncé’s second consecutive solo chart-topper and produced several defining hits, including “Déjà Vu,” “Ring the Alarm,” “Get Me Bodied,” “Beautiful Liar,” and “Irreplaceable.”
The anniversary edition expands the album with remastered material, Spanish-language recordings, B-sides, and previously unreleased songs. Notable additions include the Selena-assisted “Irreemplazable (Como La Flor),” the Maluma collaboration “Cuerpo Tumbao (Get Me Bodied),” and the Pharrell-produced “Can I Watch You.”
Beyoncé also upgraded the visual component by remastering the era’s music videos in 4K and releasing previously unseen photography.
Can you imagine winning off something you did 20 years ago? Beyoncé, you are unreal.
