Beyonce Has An 'Unreleased Secret Album' With Twenty Tracks, Was Recorded Before Her 2011 Album '4'

Beyonce has an “unreleased secret album,” said her producer The-Dream adding that it was recorded before her 2011's studio album, “4.” Queen Bey is someone who writes and sings her songs “all day” long and this album was just a creative exercise for her, added The-Dream. The album has twenty unreleased songs that Bey recorded long time back. The-Dream has worked with Bey on songs like “Single Ladies”, “Run The World (Girls)”, and “XO.”

“She said she wanted to do something that sounds like Fela. That’s why there’s so much of that sound in the “End of Time,”” said The-Dream on Genius. The-Dream, whose real name is Terius Youngdell Nash, said Bey was inspired by human rights activist Fela Kuti for the album's soundtrack. Fela was a Nigerian “multi-instrumentalist” artist and is considered a gem in the Afrobeat music genre.

The-Dream downplayed the news of Bey's unreleased album by saying that she might have “probably a hundred records just sitting around.” Great artists like her are always doing things like that, he added. It is not sure if the “Drunk in Love” singer will ever release her vintage album but various websites are speculating that Christmas might be the time for it. Bustle writer Alexis Rhiannon is asking everyone to be “super good for the next nine months” if they want the new album by Queen Bey “in our stockings come Christmas Day.” “Is this a possible Christmas offering from the superstar, perhaps?” ask Rachael Cruz from Movie Guide news.

Another producer, who is known as Dream, told Billboard in a January interview that he is working with Beyonce and her producer husband Jay Z on “new projects,” details of which he wishes to keep a secret. The producer also told the website that when one think of Bey and Jay Z, one thinks on a “full-length album.” Without divulging further details, the producer said that Bey and Jay Z might drop the album by the end of 2015. Beyonce's last album was a self-titled one that she surprise-released in 2014. The album was a huge success worldwide.
