or be able to refund altogether
since the CDs and vinyls delivered
are not what was listed, Fan, via Instagram.
Beyoncé previously said that 'Cowboy Carter' took "over five years" to create, which may explain why some vinyl and CDs are missing tracks, BBC reports. .
Albums have to be submitted to
vinyl pressing plants far in advance, so Bey may have added more songs after the fact.
Others noticed that Beyoncé changed the album
title on CD and vinyl copies to 'Act ii: Beyincé.'.
Bey's maternal grandparents were
reportedly called Beyincé, so she
referenced the name in her new work.
Meanwhile, Beyoncé recently talked about how she "wanted to go back to real instruments" on this album.
I didn't want some layers of instruments
like strings, especially guitars, and
organs perfectly in tune. I kept some
songs raw and leaned into folk. , Beyoncé, via statement.

All the sounds were so organic and

snaps and even the sound of birds
and chickens, the sounds of nature, Beyoncé, via statement
