Beyoncé released her seventh studio album “Renaissance,” on Thursday, (July 28) as planned, calling out the leakers who released the album two days early and thanking her fans for their patience.
“So, the album leaked, and you all actually waited until the proper release time so you all can enjoy it together. I’ve never seen anything like it. I can’t thank y’all enough for your love and protection. I appreciate you for calling out anyone that was trying to sneak into the club early. It means the world to me.”

The singer has desccribed the record as the first of a “three-part endeavor,” and a review by Variety is forthcoming.
Despite the fact that the album’s lead track, “Break My Soul,” was published more than a month prior to the article’s publication, Beyoncé had only released a few of brief teaser videos from the project.
The initial plan was for two albums, but it now appears that a video collection will round out the effort. With the 2016 release of her previous solo album, “Lemonae,” Beyoncé also released a 65-minute film that featured a number of music videos.
