Artist News Releases
Beyonce and Jay-Z release joint album, Everything Is Love
By Andy Malt | Published on Monday 18 June 2018
Beyonce and Jay-Z released a surprise new album together over the weekend. ‘Everything Is Love’ is available exclusively on Tidal. I bet it’s had a billion, trillion, gazillion streams already. According to Tidal maths anyway. Allegedly!
The album was released as the couple played the final show of their UK tour at the London Stadium on Saturday night. “Because we love you all so much we have something special for you”, Beyonce told the audience. The video for new track ‘Apeshit’ was then played, ending with the words “ALBUM OUT NOW” flashed up on the screen.
This all follows two solo LPs where both musician’s referred to Jay-Z’s infidelity. On ‘Everything Is Love’, they celebrate having overcome this and having found love again, as well as providing some political commentary, taking aim at President Trump and the NFL, among others.
The ‘Apeshit’ video was filmed in the Louvre art museum in Paris, highlighting the lack of non-white faces in the art displayed there, and also another theme of the album: the immense wealth they share between them.
