It's been a long six years since Beyoncé's last full-length album, Lemonade, came out. But now Queen Bey herself has finally given fans what they've been waiting for: a new album that will be dropping on July 29. Dubbed Renaissance, it will have 16 tracks and is available to preorder on Beyoncé's website.
Variety tapped an industry source who offered an inside scoop on the album. "The album will feature both dance and country-leaning tracks, the source says, with contributions from hit songwriter Ryan Tedder, who co-wrote her 2008 hit 'Halo,'" Variety wrote. Intrigued? So am I. Naturally, the news had the Twittersphere reeling, with Beyoncé fans expressing their excitement through hilarious memes and tweets. Scroll down to read some of the best reaction tweets.
