“Creating this album allowed me a place to dream and to find escape during a scary time for the world,” said Beyoncé in an Instagram. “It allowed me to feel free and adventurous in a time when little else was moving. My intention was to create a safe place, a place without judgment. A place to be free of perfectionism and overthinking. A place to scream, release, feel freedom. It was a beautiful journey of exploration. I hope you find joy in this music. I hope it inspires you to release the wiggle. Ha! And to feel as unique, strong, and sexy as you are.”

In a thank you note to fans via Renaissance’s physical copy, Beyoncé revealed that Renaissance is a part of a trilogy. “… this three act project was recorded over three years during the pandemic. A time to be still but also a time I found to be most creative.”

This three act project was recorded over three years during the pandemic. A time to be still, but also a time I found to be the most creative.
Creating this album allowed me a place to dream and to find escape during a scary time for the world. It allowed me to feel free and adventuous in a time when little else was moving. My intention was to create a safe place. A place without judgment. A place to be free of perfectionism and overthinking. A place to scream. Release. Feel Freedom. It was a beautiful journey of exploration.
I want to give a special thank you to Rumi, Sir, and Blue for allowing me the space, creativity, and inspiration and a special thanks to my beautiful husband and muse, who held me down during those late nights in the studio. A big thank you to my Uncle Jonny. He was my godmother and thefirst person to expose me to a lot of the music and culture that serve as inspiration for this album. Thank you to all the pioneers who originate culture, to all of the fallen angels whose contributions have gone unrecognized for far too long. This is a celebration for you. Thank you to my Parkwood crew, my slab, Dream, and all of the talented producers involved. Mama, I luhhhh you. To my father, my O.G., my first teacher, you inspire me in every move that I make. I love you.
To all my fans, I hope you find joy in this music. I hop it inspires you to release the wiggle, ha! And to feel as unique, strong, and sexy as you are.
Love y’all deep,
B.

Kanye West's 'Bully' Is Out Now miixtapechiick

Kanye West‘s long-awaited album Bully is officially out. The project arrived Friday, March 27 via his new partnership with Gamma and is available now on Spotify and other streaming platforms.

As previously reported by miixtapechiick.com, Bully was first announced for June 15, 2025 and was pushed back multiple times due to leaks, label changes, personal controversies, and criticism over AI use.

The album includes contributions from Travis Scott, Don Toliver, Nine Vicious, Ty Dolla $ign, Peso Pluma and CeeLo Green. West also incorporates sampled material throughout the project, including The Supremes‘ “You Can’t Hurry Love” on the track “I Can’t Wait” and Stevie Wonder‘s rendition of “Close To You” on “White Lines,” which features Andre Troutman.

Lebra Jolie Releases New Album 'Better Than Yesterday' miixtapechiick

Houston rapper Lebra Jolie has released her new album Better Than Yesterday via Interscope Records. The 15-track project is out now.

The album opens with “My All,” where Jolie reflects on the sacrifices she has made to get here, and carries that energy through “i8,” which focuses on independence and staying focused. “Girl Math” tackles relationship tension, while “Grandma’s House” pulls back for one of the more personal moments on the project.

A standout collaboration comes on “Don’t Panic” featuring Trina, bringing together two voices from Southern rap. The album also includes “F’in Wit Me (Remix)” featuring Diamond.

Better Than Yesterday is accompanied by an ongoing docu-style series also titled Better Than Yesterday, where Jolie speaks candidly about the mental weight of the industry, the sacrifices that shaped her work ethic, and her commitment to setting boundaries and protecting her peace.
