The 40-year-old singer became a hot subject on the internet when the profile photos on all her social media pages suddenly disappeared last week on Friday.
Fans had already started speculating that a brand new album of the diva might be in the making.
Their anticipation was further heightened when Beyoncé’s mother, Tina Knowles shared a post on her Instagram page last week.
She uploaded a clip of her famous daughter singing live and captioned it with ‘I miss your singing.’
And it appears like their wishes come true.
Meanwhile, the celebrity also updated her official website which now states that the new album is available to pre-order.
You can now buy the four Renaissance box sets at $39.99. It will include a different T-shirt, a CD, a 28-page photo booklet, and a mini-poster.

Beyoncé might have hinted at her upcoming album in 2021
Following the exciting announcement, some sleuth fans noted that Beyoncé may have hinted at her seventh album back last year during an interview with Harper’s Bazaar.
She candidly spoke to the magazine while teasing that new music is in the making.
The mother of three said, ‘With all the isolation and injustice over the past year, I think we are all ready to escape, travel, love, and laugh again. I feel a renaissance emerging, and I want to be part of nurturing that escape in any way possible.’
The Crazy in Love artist continued, ‘I’ve been in the studio for a year and a half. Sometimes it takes a year for me to personally search through thousands of sounds to find just the right kick or snare.’
