Beyoncé is back and, once again, with surprises.

As she had hinted with some clues in her communication in recent weeks, it is not a single disc, but a project in three parts, which therefore begins with this "act I",

Rebirth

.

“This three-act project was recorded over three years during the pandemic.

It's a time when you had to be still, but also a time when I was the most creative.

Making this album allowed me to dream and escape during a scary time for the world.

He made me feel free and adventurous at a time when little else was happening.

My intention was to create a safe place, a place without judgement.

A place where one can break free from perfectionism and overthinking.

A place to scream, to break free, to feel freedom.

It was a wonderful journey of exploration, ”she explained in a message where she thanks her fans for their support and which can be found in particular in the booklet that accompanies the disc.

Angry

Still, not everything is rosy in the world of Beyoncé, if we are to believe her colleague Kelis.

The singer has indeed chosen to settle her accounts by social networks interposed by affirming that Queen Bey had sampled her song

Milkshake

without consulting her on the title

Energy

.

The interpreter of

Trick Me

goes further, since she accuses the singer and her producer on the title, Pharrell Williams (who was also in the production for the sampled title,

Get Along With You

, released in 2000) of theft!

"Last night I was posting stuff on my Bounty And Full page, doing my own stuff, and I read on one of my fan pages someone's message was, 'Oh, this is a collaboration between Bey and Kelis".

No, it's not a collaboration – it's called stealing, because the definition of "collaboration" means that we work together.

There is no collaboration if you don't even check to see if everything is okay.

This is a problem,” she explained in a video on Instagram.

In legend, the artist warned that she was going to fight to recover what belongs to her.

Neither Beyoncé nor Pharrell Williams have, for the moment, reacted to the controversy.
