Beyoncé and Jay-Z's joint album as the Carters, EVERYTHING IS LOVE, will be getting a physical release July 6th. As Fader points out, the audio CD version of the album is currently available for pre-order from Amazon. It is unclear if the album will also be given a vinyl release.
EVERYTHING IS LOVE was shared as a surprise digital release on June 16th. It first appeared exclusively on Tidal before expanding to Spotify and Apple Music in the following days.
The joint project missed the No. 1 spot on the Hot 100, where they were outsold by UK band 5 Seconds Of Summer. The underperformance was likely due to the album being exclusive to Tidal for its first few days, and the fact that it was released on a Saturday rather than a Friday. Also, 5 Seconds Of Summer is just that big, and the unexpected passing of controversial rapper XXXTentacion resulted in the biggest streaming album of that week.
Beyoncé and Jay-Z are currently in the middle of the European leg of their On The Run II tour. They will be bringing the show to North America in the fall. In related news, Beyoncé ran into technical difficulties at a concert this weekend. The singer was briefly stranded on a floating stage after it malfunctioned. She was able to climb down after the crew brought a ladder to her.
