The same text was shared to Beyoncé's official website, and then Beyoncé confirmed that an album was on the way with a series of items that she listed on her store.
In her shop, the “Halo” singer has four different Renaissance box sets available for pre-order, and the description says, “Begins shipping July 29th upon album release.” In the write-up for the product, it says that each box set includes a collectible Renaissance box, a t-shirt and a CD. While the album's cover art has not yet been released, fans can choose one of the four box sets at random to pre-order for $40. According to Apple Music, the new album will have sixteen tracks.
Along with the music announcement, Beyoncé also revealed that she will be the cover star for British Vogue's July 2022 edition, which will coincide with the new release.
In the interview, author Edward Enninful gets to listen to a taste of the star's new music, and he writes, “Instantly, a wall of sound hits me. Soaring vocals and fierce beats combine and in a split second I’m transported back to the clubs of my youth. I want to get up and start throwing moves. It’s music I love to my core. Music that makes you rise, that turns your mind to cultures and subcultures, to our people past and present, music that will unite so many on the dance floor, music that touches your soul. As ever with Beyoncé, it is all about the intent.”
