Beyoncé has announced a new visual album, entitled “Black is King”, which she wrote, directed and executive produced. The album is based on the music of “The Lion King: The Gift”, which Beyoncé dropped to coincide with the theatrical release of Disney’s new animated remake of “The Lion King”.While “The Lion King: The Gift” was described by Beyoncé as “a love letter to Africa,” “Black is King” is said to “reimagine the lessons of ‘The Lion King’ for today’s young kings and queens in search of their own crowns.
According to a press release, the visual album celebrates the voyages of Black families throughout time, and tells the story of a young king’s journey through betrayal, love and self-identity.
