Last week, fans noticed the singer\u2019s social media platforms had been wiped clean with everything \u2013 including her profile pictures \u2013 disappearing overnight from Instagram, Twitter, Facebook, TikTok and YouTube. Many speculated it meant there was an announcement coming, and they were right: on 16th June, with one single succinct tweet, Beyonc\u00e9 announced her seventh studio album as a solo artist, \u2018Renaissance,\u2019 is on the way, a follow-up to 2016\u2019s wildly acclaimed \u2018Lemonade.\u2019 Specifically, the album, which appears to be two-parts, will be out next month on July 29.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">The news was shared in a tweet by the music streaming platform Tidal, which Beyonc\u00e9\u2019s husband, Jay-Z, launched in 2015. It read simply, \u201cact i \u2026 RENAISSANCE.\u201d Streaming platforms including Spotify, Apple Music and Tidal quickly posted minimalist artwork featuring the same wording while offering fans the chance to pre-save the release. As <\/span><i><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">The Guardian <\/span><\/i><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">notes, the Apple Music listing suggests the project will consist of 16 tracks.<\/span><\/p>\n<blockquote class=\"twitter-tweet\" data-width=\"500\" data-dnt=\"true\">\n<p lang=\"fr\" dir=\"ltr\">Beyonc\u00e9 <br \/>RENAISSANCE <br \/>July 29 <a href=\"https:\/\/t.co\/ZenmtPQM9W\" target=\"_blank\">pic.twitter.com\/ZenmtPQM9W<\/a><\/p>\n<p>&mdash; TIDAL (@TIDAL) <a href=\"https:\/\/twitter.com\/TIDAL\/status\/1537304528713809920?ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw\" target=\"_blank\">June 16, 2022<\/a><\/p><\/blockquote>\n<p><script async src=\"https:\/\/platform.twitter.com\/widgets.js\" charset=\"utf-8\"><\/script><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">In an interview with <\/span><a href=\"https:\/\/www.harpersbazaar.com\/culture\/features\/a37039502\/beyonce-evolution-interview-2021\/\" target=\"_blank\"><i><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Harper\u2019s Bazaar<\/span><\/i><\/a><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"> last year, Beyonc\u00e9 hinted new music was on the way, saying, \u201cWith all the isolation and injustice over the past year, I think we are all ready to escape, travel, love, and laugh again,\u201d she said. \u201cI feel a renaissance emerging, and I want to be part of nurturing that escape in any way possible. I\u2019ve been in the studio for a year and a half.\u201d Though we didn&#8217;t know it at the time, she was giving us the album\u2019s name on a platter.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">She added, \u201cSometimes it takes a year for me to personally search through thousands of sounds to find just the right kick or snare. One chorus can have up to 200 stacked harmonies. Still, there\u2019s nothing like the amount of love, passion, and healing that I feel in the recording studio. After 31 years, it feels just as exciting as it did when I was nine years old.
