Beyoncé’s Album Has Reportedly Leaked – But Is It An April Fool?

Okay, ladies, now let’s get information. There have, in the last month, been rumours that a new Beyonce album will be released in April. The vaguely spurious suggestion broke on music website Hits Daily Double, which claimed that the star would released the record along with a joint album recorded with husband Jay-Z.

In February, Beyonce’s stylist, Ty Hunter, told Andy Cohen, host of the American TV show ‘Watch What Happens Live’, that he’d heard the record. “I’ve heard the new record,” he said, “and it’s awesome.” You bask in that reflected glory, Ty. Bask away, my friend.

Anyway, a Twitter user – words to be wary of in any report – now claims to have leaked a tracklist from the album, which is apparently to be released TODAY.

Now. Let’s think carefully about this. Does a Bey/Adele joint sound likely? On the one hand, Adele has been very vocal about her love of the ‘Formation’ singer. On the other, Beyonce is unfathomably cooler than Adele. So it’s a tricky one. Also, there’s a hyphen missing in the bit that says “Knowles Carter”. Case closed.

No, wait, let’s reopen the case.

There’s no sign of Future, Sia or rapper D.R.A.M, all rumoured to have been in the studio with Beyonce lately. And what about that release date? April 1. People tend to post stupid shit on the internet as an April Fool’s joke on April 1, don’t they? Our advice: get excited, but approach with caution.
