S.and it is true that for the seventh studio album of Beyoncé there was a great expectation, it is at the same time true that nothing went as planned. A few hours after the release of Renaissancemany fans said they saw the songs on the web illegally. And they begged the network to resist the temptation, waiting for the official release.
Beyoncé: “Thank you for waiting”
It hasn’t been an easy hour for the winning artist of 28 Grammy Awards (including 20 solo). But knowing that many fans have kept their curiosity at bay for a few hours, so as to wait for the official release of Renaissanceheartened her.
At the same time, however, as the site reports Consequence of Sound, there was a probable theft of music files because the album was in a record shop in France (which should have been released today, Friday 29 July) was already on sale and on display on Wednesday 27.
Variety however, he reports positive statements from the artist: “The album leaked and you actually waited until the right moment for release so that we could all enjoy it together. I’ve never seen anything like it. I can’t thank you enough for your love and protection. ‘
And he continued Queen Bey: “I appreciate you for calling whoever was trying to sneak into the club early. It means everything to me“.
Renaissance: a three-part project
Renaissance is part of a “three-part project”. What it is is not yet clear. Since no video clips of this new album have yet been released (even if the first single, Break My Soulcame out over a month ago) some suppose that one of these three parts is a collection of all the video clips of the project.
Some time ago, in fact, there was talk of two albums and not three …
Something like this Beyoncé had already done for the record Lemonade of 2016, releasing a sort of feature film with more music videos inside.
In the cover of the album, the ex Destiny’s Child poses royally on the silhouette of a bright horse. Speaking of the record, he had said: «The creation of this album has allowed me a place to dream and find an escape route in a scary time for the world. It allowed me to feel free and adventurous at a time when little else was moving“.
And again: «My intention was to create a safe place, a place without judgment. A place to be free from perfectionism and excessive thinking. A place to scream, free yourself, feel the freedom“.
Over 80 professionals participated in the sixteen Renaissance songs. There are Nile Rodgers of the Chic, Skrillex, Pharrell Williams, Drake. There is a sample of Giorgio Moroder And Donna Summer and there is a sampling of a song by James Brown. There is a duet with Grace Jones and there are three songs that also see the signature of Jay-Z, husband of the record singer.
