Beyonce, shown here attending the 2016 MTV Video Music Awards, is slated to release a new album in July 2022NEW YORK - Beyonce, the paradigm-shifting music royal whose art has long established her as one of entertainment's seminal stars, on Friday released her hotly anticipated album"Renaissance," a house-tinged dance record primed for its summer needle drop.
Prior to releasing her opus Beyonce had dropped"Break My Soul" to acclaim, setting the tone for her house revival that highlighted the Black, queer and working-class artists and communities who molded the electronic dance genre, which first developed in Chicago in the 1980s. "It allowed me to feel free and adventurous in a time when little else was moving," she continued."My intention was to create a safe place, a place without judgment. A place to be free of perfectionism and overthinking."- 'Expansive listening journey' -
In a statement her label Parkwood Entertainment and Columbia Records lent insight into the decision, saying the artist"decided to lead without visuals giving fans the opportunity to be limitless in their expansive listening journey." That song closes by sampling a speech from Barbara Ann Teer, who founded Harlem's National Black Theatre.
She later made waves by releasing"Lemonade" -- the groundbreaking work that chronicled her own emotional catharsis following infidelity within a generational and racial context -- first on cable television, and limiting its streaming availability.
