What is Beyoncé’s visual album released in 2020 called?

The story behind the answer

Beyoncé’s 2020 visual album is called Black Is King.

Black Is King was written, directed, and executive produced by Beyoncé. It premiered on Disney+ on July 31, 2020, and serves as a visual companion to The Lion King: The Gift, the 2019 album she curated alongside the film The Lion King.

The project reimagines themes from The Lion King through a contemporary story centered on African identity, family, ancestry, and cultural memory. It features music from The Lion King: The Gift and appearances by artists including Jay-Z, Childish Gambino, Shatta Wale, and Major Lazer.

The title is not the same as Homecoming, which documents Beyoncé’s 2018 Coachella performance. Black Is King is a separate film project with its own visual narrative, styling, locations, and creative team.
