What is the title of Beyoncé’s seventh studio album, released in 2022?

The story behind the answer

Renaissance is Beyoncé’s seventh studio album, released in 2022.

Parkwood Entertainment and Columbia Records released Renaissance on July 29, 2022. It was presented as the first act of a planned trilogy and followed 2016’s Lemonade as Beyoncé’s next solo studio album.

The album draws heavily from house, disco, dance-pop, funk, and R&B. Its lead single, “Break My Soul,” became Beyoncé’s eighth solo number-one single on the Billboard Hot 100 in the United States.

Renaissance received nine Grammy nominations at the 65th ceremony and won four awards, including Best Dance/Electronic Music Album. The title is sometimes confused with the 2023 concert film Renaissance: A Film by Beyoncé or with Cowboy Carter, the later album that became the trilogy’s second act.
