What was the name of Beyoncé’s 2022 studio album, her seventh?

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

The album began a planned three-act project and followed 2016’s Lemonade. Its sound draws heavily on house, disco, dance-pop, funk, and other club traditions, linking modern production with earlier Black and queer dance-music histories.

“Break My Soul” served as the lead single and became Beyoncé’s first solo number-one single on the Billboard Hot 100 since “Single Ladies (Put a Ring on It).” Renaissance received strong critical acclaim and won the Grammy for Best Dance/Electronic Music Album.

Renaissance is sometimes confused with Cowboy Carter, Beyoncé’s eighth studio album, released in 2024. The title is also written in all capital letters in some official styling, but the conventional album title is Renaissance.
