Beyoncé reveals a stacked list of collaborators for her upcoming album, "Renaissance."

Beyoncé has slowly unveiled new information regarding her forthcoming album over the past few weeks. She kicked off the campaign with the dance-friendly, "Break My Soul," which has had TikTok on lock. Though we haven't received any other singles off of the project, she offered fans some brief insight into the body of work after sharing the tracklist yesterday.

The official album credits appeared on Apple Music once the pre-save link went live, and it's about to be a stacked body of work. As previously reported, Drake does have writing credits on the song, "Heated." However, Bey also got some assistance from Jay-Z, who has three credits on Renaissance. Pharrell and Chad Hugo are rumored to have shared production duties on the single, "Energy" as The Neptunes. Additionally, Beyoncé recruited Tems, No I.D., Mike Dean, Hit-Boy, and more.
