Beyoncé Has Released The Tracklist For ‘The Lion King’ Album – And The BeyHive Is Rejoicing - BET

Posted: 16 Jul 2019 12:00 AM PDT

  • Sometime between looking flawless on the red carpet and sitting down for a rare interview with Good Morning America in Bey Time, Bey has graciously rolled out the tracklist for her executive produced companion album, The Lion King: The Gift.

    Three days before the album officially drops, Bey dropped the tracklist for the 14-track project on her website, unveiling every artist she handpicked to feature on it. If you thought the film's original soundtrack was impressive, music fans will be floored by the lineup on The Gift.

    Fans' spirits have been lifted, and summer has been saved.

  • Half of the songs are Beyoncé related, but hip-hop's most sought-after artists are tapped to spotlight on tracks, such as Childish Gambino, Kendrick Lamar, Jay-Z, rising femcee Tierra Whack, Afro-pop stars Tiwa Savage and Yemi Alade, Mr Eazi, and the genre-defying Burna Boy.

    Blue Ivy even has a little something on the album, clocking on a track titled "Brown Skin Girl." Come through, baby Blue!

    Talking to Good Morning America, Beyoncé described the album as a "love letter to Africa," and explained how she fused different soundscapes together on the album.

    "The soundtrack is a love letter to Africa, and I wanted to make sure we found the best talent from Africa and not just use some of the sounds and do my interpretation of it," she revealed in a sneak peek of the ABC special that will air tonight.

    "I wanted it to be authentic to what is beautiful about the music in Africa."

    Mixing together native drums and chants with "incredible new sounds," Beyonce detailed how she and her creative team created "a new genre of music" to paint a visual picture of the film.

    "I feel like the soundtrack, it becomes visual in your mind. It's a soundscape. It's more than just the music, because each song tells the story of the film."

  • The BeyHive is rejoicing and is already anticipating that Blue Ivy is coming for all our necks.

  • The full tracklist can be read below and on Beyoncé's official website, here.

    The music video for "Spirit" will premiere tonight during the ABC special.

    CBD is officially more popular than Beyoncé. At least when it comes to internet research.

    According to CannabisMD's Knowledge Navigator, a backend tool used to survey consumer trends, online interest in cannabidiol, more popularly known as CBD, has spiked exponentially in the past year. The data analyzed was pulled from a wide array of user searches across the web, including over 12,000 URLs, along with social media platforms like Instagram and Twitter.

    As the Navigator-generated chart shows, the number of searches entered for CBD have consistently risen since 2017, with no peak in sight. As of 2019, the tool's graphs show CBD's popularity has surpassed several popular topics, including Beyoncé, Kim Kardashian, kale and veganism.

    For context, the Knowledge Navigator's data is in line with current Google search trends, which show a similar historical uptick for the term "CBD." The timing of the intense interest in cannabidiol taking off in 2018 makes sense; last year was when hemp saw a national decriminalization that helped get CBD production off the ground.

    Countless startups currently sell cannabidiol-infused products for wellness purposes, with benefit claims ranging from reducing anxiety to curing seizures. In fact, the marketing for many CBD-containing products has come under fire in recent months, with an increase in calls for industry regulation.

    It's clear that consumer interest is at an all time high, as the search data shows, and is expected to continue growing upward at this rate. After all, with the number of CBD producers increasing at an incredible rate—the market is set to reach $20 billion by 2424—consumer fascination with CBD is likely to continue trending up too.
