What Allmusic.com said about the "upgrade" on Beyonce's album.

They gave the album a postive review in general (the orignal verison) but added this comment to the review. It's very funny.

[Only seven months after the album was originally released, Columbia put together a two-disc deluxe edition, adding five largely inconsequential songs to the album proper, while resequencing the track list and tacking on a bonus disc that amounts to a Spanish mini-album. The booklet, of course, is overhauled as well, containing some new photos. Those who bought the original release have every right to be irritated.]

So did Beyonce fall to or overcome the sophomore cd test? An artists second CD after a big hit CD is usually a challenge but Beyonce got so much shit coming at me I dont know what to make of this. nuts

I saw on vh1 soul last night the 50 videos she got for the extra songs on
the cd and it looks like a hot mess. I must admit i like the shakira video.
Upgrade you is okay. That garbage she has call get me bodied up with the destiny's child girls and solange is wack as hell. It is just too much going
on in that song and video. I am not a huge beyonce fan anyway. I will just settle for the joint on the dreamgirls movie and upgrade you. I won't waste my time or money on this cd.
Don't laugh at my funk
This funk is a serious joint

MTV said she was doing a bunch of new videos, too. Aren't they gonna be packaged with the music?
