What name was used to credit Beyoncé and Jay-Z’s 2018 collaborative album?

Beyoncé and Jay-Z were credited as The Carters on their 2018 collaborative album.

The album itself is titled Everything Is Love, and it was released on June 16, 2018. Its artist credit uses The Carters, referring to the married couple’s family surname: Beyoncé was born Beyoncé Giselle Knowles, while Jay-Z was born Shawn Corey Carter.

The project followed several years in which both artists addressed marriage, fame, and personal conflict in separate music. Beyoncé’s Lemonade and Jay-Z’s 4:44 had each generated public discussion about their relationship, while Everything Is Love presented a more unified artistic statement.

The album was initially released exclusively through the streaming service Tidal before becoming available more broadly. Its lead single, “Apeshit,” was accompanied by a video filmed in the Louvre in Paris. The Carters should not be confused with Destiny’s Child, Beyoncé’s former girl group, or with Beyoncé’s solo artist credit.
