Beyoncé fuels conspiracy theories with missing Cowboy Carter vinyl tracks
Los Angeles, California - While Beyoncé's newest album, Cowboy Carter, breaks records, some fans were perplexed over the project's vinyls missing tracks.
Per Variety, the 42-year-old entertainer fueled internet theories after the fans who received their Cowboy Carter vinyl discovered there were several tracks missing.
Reportedly, the songs Spaghettii, Flamenco, The Linda Martell Show, Ya Ya, and Oh Louisiana are omitted from the exclusive vinyl while Flamenco was featured on the CD and not the other four.
The site shared that fans who issued complaints directly to the album's retailer received an automated response that their concerns would be answered in three to four days due to a "higher volume of emails than usual."
Still, internet sleuths have theorized that the Texas Hold 'Em artist may have changed and added songs very late into the process.
Is the Cowboy Carter vinyl the original version of Beyoncé's Act II?
Others have speculated that the vinyl edition is the album's original version, especially since the spine of vinyl and CD copies reads "Act II – Beyincé – Beyoncé."
This led to the theory that Cowboy Carter was originally titled Beyincé, and Bey changed the name at the last minute.
Prior to the anticipated release of Act II, the Virgo's Groove crooner revealed that the record was originally intended to drop before 2022's Renaissance.
"We wanted to dance. We deserved to dance. But I had to trust God's timing," Beyoncé said in a press release.
