Beyonce’s publicist, Yvette Noel-Schure, took to Instagram to unveil the cover art and track list for the forthcoming album, The Lion King: The Gift.
She shared the art work first which shows two gold plated lions, presumably representing Scar and Mufasa, at each other’s tails.
The visuals for the lead single “Spirit” by Beyonce is slate to air tonight at 8pm E/T on ABC, Noel Schure announced in the caption above.
The #Beyhive definitely began buzzing after the revelation of the album’s stunning art work. But things went into high gear when her publicist also dropped the star-studded track list.
The collection features Bey, JAY-Z, Kendrick Lamar, Childish Gambino, Tierra Whack, Burna Boy, Tekno, Jessie Reyez and more. To top it off, the album was executive produced by the Queen Bey herself.
“This is sonic cinema,” said Beyoncé. “This is a new experience of storytelling. I wanted to do more than find a collection of songs that were inspired by the film. It is a mixture of genres and collaboration that isn’t one sound. It is influenced by everything from R&B, pop, hip hop and Afro Beat.”
The only thing we’re waiting to find out is if we’re going to receive the soundtrack at the same time as the movie.
