Beyoncé & JAY Z Drop Surprise Album ‘Everything Is Love’ & Visuals For “APES**T” [STREAM]

For years a collaborative album between JAY Z and Beyoncé has been on everyone’s wish list. The wait is over with the power couple releasing their surprise ‘Everything Is Love’ album exclusively on TIDAL, upon completing their U.K. “OTR II Tour” dates.

The Carters announced the album during their London stop on tour. After wrapping up their performance on Saturday night, the screen at London Stadium blacked out and read: “ALBUM OUT NOW.”

Packed with 9-tracks, the collaborative release follows Bey’s 2016 album ‘LEMONADE’ and JAY Z’s 2017 album ‘4:44’. On the album Hov and Bey address several topics like the NFL, social issues, the GRAMMYs, streaming, Meek Mill’s ongoing case, Kanye West, and more.

Stream it below.

Along with the album release, the Carters dropped the Ricky Saiz-directed visuals for the lead single “APES**T,” which was shot at the Louvre museum in Paris, France.

Jay-Z & Beyoncé Announce Their “On The Run II” Tour [PEEP]

Four-years after setting a precedent and joining forces for the original “On the Run” tour, Jay-Z and Beyoncé officially announce the sequel of the critically-acclaimed tour.

There had been several rumors alluding to the power couple reuniting for a joint tour and last week a flyer of the tour was even leaked. Remaining mum, neither Hov nor Bey addressed the situation and instead went all the way live with it today.

The “On the Run II Tour” will kick off this summer in the United Kingdom, before expanding to Europe and then coming to North America. It is a 36-date stadium tour set to start on June 6th in Cardiff, U.K. and hit other cities overseas like Manchester, London, Barcelona, Amsterdam, Glasgow, Stockholm, Rome, and wrap up July 17th in Nice, France.

From there it will hit the second leg in North America beginning July 25th in Cleveland, Ohio. The tour is set to hit major cities like Los Angeles, New York, Houston, Chicago, Boston, Philadelphia, and more. It will culminate on October 2nd in Vancouver.

Their last tour included an HBO special in 2014 of the trek, which was nominated for an Emmy. The preview video for the tour shows footage from that tour and is soundtracked by Marcia Aitken’s “I’m Still In Love (With You Boy).” There has also been talks of a joint album, although there isn’t much info on it as of now. If the joint album is going to happen, there couldn’t be a better time for that to come to fruition.

Pre-sale tickets for Citi, TIDAL, and BeyHive members will start on Wednesday, March 14th. General tickets will go on sale March 19th. Select European markets will have to wait till March 23rd to purchase tickets.
