OK, Beyhive, we know you care: Beyoncé announced Tuesday that she’s dropping an incredible box set inspired by her ineffably gorgeous album “Lemonade.”
“Lemonade” celebrated its anniversary on April 23, but the limited-edition collectors’ edition box set is clearly created for those who want to celebrate it forever.
Naturally, the announcement for the set is just as beautiful as the work it’s about:
HOW TO MAKE LEMONADE COLLECTOR’S BOXSET from @Beyonce now available for pre-order on https://t.co/uubOG5L15D http://pic.twitter.com/IEjhBdEnOd

Aptly called the “How To Make Lemonade Box Set,” it retails for a cool $300 and offers a “comprehensive look at Beyoncé’s ‘LEMONADE’ journey.”
It includes a copy of “Lemonade” on vinyl, a numbered 600-page coffee table book with “hundreds of never-before-seen photos” from the making of the album, and audio and visual album downloads.
The massive book features a foreword from Michael Eric Dyson, poetry by Warsan Shire and Beyoncé’s personal writing and lyrics interspersed throughout.
The $300 price tag is pretty steep, but it is a collectors’ item. Though, Beanie Babies were once considered “collectors’ items” too …We’d say we’re conflicted, but let’s be real: We want one of these.
Twitter seems to agree:
me: Beyoncé expects me to pay $300 for a special collectors edition box set for Lemonade?!!
