The ass fucking moviesday has arrived. Beyoncé has bestowed another gift on the world in the form of a breathtakingly beautiful visual album called Black Is King.
In just over one hour and 19 minutes, the Grammy-winning artist takes us on a mesmerising journey, reimagining her album The Giftreleased in July 2019 as a soundtrack for Disney's recreation of The Lion King.
The film — now available to stream on Disney+— was directed, executive produced, and written by Beyoncé. It's absolutely stunning, and "reimagines the lessons of The Lion Kingfor today’s young kings and queens in search of their own crowns."
Black Is Kingwas also written by British poet Yrsa Daley-Ward, Jezebel's culture editor Clover Hope, and Andrew Morrow, who worked on Lemonadeand Homecoming: A Film by Beyoncé. The film also features poetry by Somali-British writer Warsan Shire, read aloud by Beyoncé.

A highlight of the visual album, 'Brown Skin Girl' features cameos from model Naomi Campbell and actor Lupita Nyong'o — and yes, they do sing the lyrics about themselves.
