The two-disc Deluxe Edition will include the original songs in A minor in its entirety along with a second disc featuring two previously unreleased songs: the funky blues demo for “If I Was Your Woman” and an early version of “Typewriter,” recorded in Alicia’s Harlem apartment in 1997. The second disc also includes “A Woman’s Worth (Remix)” featuring Nas, the mixtape version of “Juiciest,” “Fallin’” from the Ali soundtrack, and “Butterflyz (The Drumline Mix).”

The three-disc 10th Anniversary Collector’s Edition contains the complete original album plus a second CD with the previously unreleased tracks “Ghetto Man” featuring Poet muMs da Schemer, “I Won’t (Crazy World)” (an original song from Alicia’s first demo), and “Girlfriend (KrucialKeys Sista Girl Mix – The U.K. Video Remix Edit).”
