Report: Jay Z and Beyonce in the Studio Working on New, Collaborative Album

Celebrities Seen At The Paris Saint-Germain Soccer GameJay Z and Beyonce are going into the studio to work on a new, top secret album together, sources tell Page Six.

The couple, who finished their On the Run tour in Paris last month, are secretly recording together and plan to release a surprise album later this year or early next year, a source said.

The couple hopes to repeat the success of Bey’s eponymous album Beyonce, which dropped in December to wild acclaim despite no advance promotion, marketing or fanfare.

This unusual release strategy, and the sales that followed, has even become the focus of a study by the venerable Harvard Business School. It’s believed that the famous couple will accompany the new release with simultaneous videos and even a movie.

The husband-and-wife entertainers have recently been spotted in Paris, where they looked at real estate near the Élysée Palace last week.

At their final Paris gig to wrap up their recent tour on Sept. 13, Jay had told fans the city was special to the couple because, “we got engaged here and this is where baby Blue was conceived.”

Democracy needs journalism it can trust.

This election season, the stakes are higher than usual — and so is the pressure on newsrooms to soften their coverage, stay quiet, or just disappear. Independent reporting, the kind that answers to readers instead of advertisers or political pressure, matters more in a moment like this, not less.

For over 14 years, Atlanta Black Star has stayed independent and reader-funded. We have no corporate owner and no shareholders telling us what to cover or how to cover it. That independence is also our biggest vulnerability: nothing protects it except readers choosing to fund it directly.

Newspaper ad revenue has fallen more than 80% since 2005, and local newsrooms are closing at a rate of roughly two a week nationwide. When outlets go under in a moment like this, it's rarely the independent, reader-funded ones that get to stick around.

We know a request for support isn't why you came here. But without readers choosing to fund this work directly, the depth of reporting we can do at home and abroad shrinks along with everyone else's. If you're not in a position to give, that doesn't change how much we value you as a reader.

If you are able to, a recurring contribution does more for us than a single one-time gift, because it lets us plan the next investigation instead of just the next invoice. It takes about 30 seconds, no long form, no account. Thank you for continuing to support independent journalism and freedom of the press.
