History may prove Beyoncé's B'Day to be a rare double-whammy of an achievement. Not only is it destined to hold up as one of the thumpingest, most polished-sounding discs of 2006, it's also bound to loose a new phrase into the popular lexicon: a "freekum dress" (n.), as described on a same-named track halfway through this excellent CD, is a "right-fittin'" garment owned by every woman; "when they act wrong, that's when you put it on." Linguistic hijinks aside, here is Beyoncé as the public rarely sees her: fully liberated and artistically fearless. "Ring the Alarm," a big-banging, fire-alarm-clanging wake-up call to a cheating man, finds her seething; "Kitty Kat," a feline-like size-up of a stale relationship helped along by the still innovative Neptunes, shows her spurned; the womanly, fire-in-the-belly come-on "Suga Mama" gets her way, way worked up; and the crackling, vocally volcanic "Resentment" steeps her in Aretha-caliber soul. For all the disc's solo trailblazing, though, where it really soars is on one of two duets with Jay-Z: While "Up Grade U" chugs along entertainingly enough about the good life ("I'm talkin' spa bags and fly pads and rooms at the Bloomberg"), opener "Deja Vu" blasts out a bomp-bomp beat nobody with a head to nod could resist. Cake, candles, and Cristal or no, B'Days rarely get this good. --Tammy La Gorce More from Beyoncé and Destiny's Child

 B' Day (Deluxe Edition) March 30, 2009
David Ogletree (Cleveland, OH)
I love this album. This CD is a hit just like her first album. She belts, sings, and pours out her heart on this album. This album is a celebration and a milestone. Soulfully deep, emotionally expanseive, musically far reaching and filled with banging beats,muscular rhythms and lyris that are mature, smart and flat out sexy. The sound of an artist raising the bar is this record. This album has been certified 3x Platinum.

I received the cd very fast; haven't listen to it yet but it appears to be in excellent condition as promised.
Could be better...but not bad by any means March 31, 2008

Definitely an "Upgrade" and necessary revision of her previous load of scraps album B'day the original! I didn't purchase the original B'Day because I knew I would be ripped off paying 10+ dollars for a ~9 track album that Beyonce finished in two weeks! However, this revised copy was not too bad, and should've been the original B'day.
The album is overall VERY consistent, but at the same time it doesn't really have any groundbreaking masterpiece song that boasts the quality of Beyonce's previous "Crazy In Love", "Speechless", Be With You", "Me Myself and I" masterpiece tunes featured in "Dangerously In Love". The only ones that come to mind is "Listen", "Irreplaceable", and "Amor Gitano". "Listen" basically exposes Beyonce's voice for what it is, moderately powerful when it needs to be, and a good depiction of her necessary emotion and shades of soul and impressive range(she belts out an Eb5 in FULL VOICE!). Her voice truly does shine on this piece, and definitely solidifies her as one of the top five singing divas of today's modern age. The lyrics are also virtually immaculate, which always helps tons in a ballad! It is overall, one of Beyonce's better songs in her inventory, and quite possibly, her best ballad. "Irreplaceable" was milked to death over the radio, but it was a huge hit for Beyonce, and for good reason. A very catchy pop tune where Beyonce's voice soars with its attitude and supporting guitar sounds in the back. "Amor Gitano" is a fierce duet between Alejandro Fernandez and Beyonce. An upbeat, infectious Spanish tune. The rest of the album is tolerable, very consistent, and filled with mostly third and fourth single potential songs that are spread evenly throughout track list. However, some of the songs don't have the necessary hook or production that are necessary to catch the listener's ear upon first hearing. The beats are loud, chaotic, and work well for clubs, but in a more reserved audio or speaker system, the some of the songs' weaknesses and lack of melodic production might appear stale at times. It would also be nice if Beyonce could showcase that melodic voice of hers from time to time! The only song in here that showcases her impressive vocals and range is pretty much, "Listen" and "Resentment".
One thing about this is the overall new sound Beyonce took. Not an innovative sound by any means, and pretty much absent of the robotic, futuristic sounds of Justin Timberlake's Futuresex/Lovesounds, but it's a far cry from Beyonce's previous "Dangerously In Love". While "Dangerously In Love" focused more on R&B, slow sultry sounds, this album's focus was more on chaotic, dance tunes, without the electronica tint. So fans who are expecting R&B sounds or electronically dance infused pop music should be warned right now. 4/5 stars.

Its Good But Not Better Than Her Last Album November 14, 2007
Adviser (Seattle,Wa)
ok i like this CD i love how there is a lot of dance songs but its not better than her first one i thought she put more into it then this one she made this one after she did dreamgirls she said it inspired her but i thought if she would have took more time it could have been a better album. her slow songs of course are great she really knows how to sing about love an how it feels or how it hurts an i appreciate her for that. its good to hear someone else going through or feeling what your feeling if you love beyonce you would buy this album
