Queen Bey is back! Beyonce has released her highly anticipated sixth album, Lemonade, exclusively on Tidal.
The 12 track album premiered overnight with a short film, which Beyonce had been teasing prior to its release. According to Tidal, Lemonade is a "conceptual project based on every woman's journey of self-knowledge and healing."

The album includes collaborations with Kendrick Lamar, Jack White, James Blake and the Weeknd. Lemonade also features samples from Led Zepplin's 'Don't Hurt Yourself, Yeah Yeah Yeahs' 'Hold Up' and Animal Collective's '6 Inch'.
Beyonce deals with issues of race and misogyny in the hour long film, which premiered on HBO last night. Serena Williams and Jay-Z make guest appearances.
Lemonade isn't expected to be streamed on Apple Music or Spotify any time soon. A source confirmed to The Verge, that it will exclusively be streaming on Tidal, which is only available in 46 countries. It's also reported Lemonade will likely be available for purchase in some capacity over the next few weeks.
