The full album “Renaissance,” by the 40-year-old “Irreplaceable” icon, has been leaked online and is even currently being sold on CDs in Europe, according to Variety on Wednesday.
The distributor of the record, Columbia Records, as well as Beyoncé’s representatives did not immediately answer to Variety’s requests for comment.
The 16 tracks on the album’s tracklist were revealed by Beyoncé last week, and on June 20, the dancehall-inspired “Break My Soul” became the album’s first single.
On June 30, she unveiled the album cover, which features a holographic image of a mother-of-three seated atop a horse in the heavens with carefully placed objects hiding her private parts.
“It allowed me to feel free and adventurous in a time when little else was moving. My intention was to create a safe place, a place without judgment. A place to be free of perfectionism and overthinking. A place to scream, release, feel freedom. It was a beautiful journey of exploration. I hope you find joy in this music. I hope it inspires you to release the wiggle. Ha! And to feel as unique, strong, and sexy as you are,” she concluded.
The first full-length solo studio album from Queen B since she introduced us to “Becky with the good hair” on “Lemonade” in 2016 will be “Renaissance.” Prior to that, she abruptly released “Beyoncé” in 2013.
