With no promotion or even a mention, Beyonce released a surprise visual album overnight via iTunes just in time for Christmas. Every song on the album has a video which is also available on iTunes.
Just minutes before midnight EST Friday (Dec. 13) morning, Beyonce released her fifth album, a self-titled set, exclusively on iTunes. Details are still emerging on confirmed producers, but guests credited on the "exclusive visual album" are Jay Z, Drake, Frank Ocean and daughter Blue Ivy. Beyonce's self-titled album -- her fifth studio effort, and first since 2011's "4" -- arrived on Thursday night (Dec. 12) without prior warning. The 14-song collection features "Drunk In Love," a new collaboration with husband Jay Z; "Mine," featuring Drake; Superpower, with her "I Miss You" collaborator Frank Ocean; and "Blue," a song with her daughter, Blue Ivy Carter. "XO," long rumored to be a single from the singer's new album, also appears on the track list.
