Beyoncé and Jay-Z, the first couple of music, seemed to be having some serious trouble in their ten-year long marriage a couple of years ago. And while they were relatively tight-lipped publicly about their issues, the duo expressed themselves the best way they know how; through their music.
First Beyoncé released the critically acclaimed 2016 album, "Lemonade" where she unleashed her rage and disappointment in being cheated on by her husband. Jay followed not long after with his release, "4:44". And while he certainly addressed his shameful behavior and asked for forgiveness from his wife, Jay had other things on his mind like racism, hip-hop culture, the late artist, Prince and lovingly honoring his mother who is a lesbian.
Now the Carters are in a better place in their relationship and have salvaged their marriage. They are in the middle of their On The Run II world tour (which runs through October) and the day after their first show in the U.K. on June 16th, the couple dropped a surprise joint album entitled, "Everything Is Love". The nine-track record had been in the works off and on over the last few years and features assistance from many collaborators with some high-profile names include Ty Dolla $ign, Offset and Quavo from Migos, Dave Sitek of TV On The Radio and Pharrell Williams.
The first song released from the album is called "Apeshit" and what is notable about the music video for the track is the location. It was shot at the Louvre, one of the most famous museums in the world located in Paris, and the art-enthusiasts impressively managed to get permission to film there.
