The 40-year-old R&B diva, who has 348.5 million social media followers, changed her Instagram/Twitter bio to “act i RENAISSANCE 7.29”.

Knowles-Carter first hinted last August that the follow-up to her 2016 hit visual album Lemonade would mark a “renaissance.”

“With all the isolation and injustice over the past year, I think we are all ready to escape, travel, love and laugh again. I can feel a renaissance emerging, and I want to help encourage that escape in any way I can,” the Be Alive singer said in her Harper’s Bazaar cover story.

“I’ve been in the studio for a year and a half. Sometimes it takes me a year to personally sift through thousands of sounds to find just the right kick or snare. A chorus can have up to 200 stacked harmonies.

“Still, there’s nothing quite like the amount of love, passion and healing I feel in the recording studio. After 31 years, it feels just as exciting as it did when I was nine. Yes, the music is coming!’

Beyoncé added, “I’ve paid my dues and followed every rule for decades, so now I can break the rules that need to be broken. My wish for the future is to keep doing what everyone thinks I can’t do.”

Knowles-Carter fans understandably raged on Twitter, posting hilarious memes that best conveyed their excitement about Renaissance.

On Tuesday, The Sun reported that the Houston-born, Texan’s team has already been ‘scouting’ venues in the UK for ‘live experiences, intimate shows and other pop-up performances’.
