A self-titled Beyoncé album has surfaced on iTunes, featuring 14 new tracks and an additional 18 videos. Billed as a “visual album,” Beyoncé is described as a “provocative, unguarded artistic statement — revealing a side of the icon previously unknown to fans and cementing her status as a pop visionary.”
Earlier this week, Columbia Records chairman Rob Stringer said that ”obviously, at some point Beyoncé will put a record out, and when she does it will be monumental.” Over the summer, rumors surfaced that Beyoncé had scrapped 50 songs and started over on her fifth solo album.
The album features Jay Z, Drake, and Frank Ocean, with production by Pharrell Williams, Timbaland, The-Dream, Noah “40″ Shebib, and more. The tracklist for the album and its visual component are below.
