Anther buzz worthy album has just been released completely unannounced: Beyoncé and Jay-Z’s “Everything Is Love,” which credits the husband-and-wife team as the Carters and is available exclusively on Tidal. Bey and Jay have used their long-rumored collaboration as an opportunity to dish on the likes of Spotify (“If I gave…two fucks about streaming numbers woulda put ‘Lemonade’ up on Spotify.

“APESHIT” features Migos and Pharrell. The six-minute video is as grand and lavish as you’d expect:
