Beyonce new album rumoured for April release: Here's everything we know about the singer's sixth record

There's also the possibility of a second LP with Jay Z

After the surprise release of ‘Formation’, the Beyoncé rumour mill went into overdrive, with hundreds of people eagerly expecting an album to suddenly appear any minute now.

Thanks to Hits Daily Double (via Dazed), we’ve now got word that Queen B is apparently in talks with Sony Music to drop her sixth album in April, the same month she embarks on her ‘Formation’ tour.

Adding further fuel to the fire is Beyoncé’s part-time producer Noel ‘Detail’ Fischer (Drunk in Love) who has been posting pictures on Instagram of himself and the singer.

That’s not all; apparently the 34-year-old is working on another album, one with husband and rapper Jay Z - something that has long been rumoured to be in the works.

While neither are officially confirmed, a new Beyoncé album really is looking more and more plausible by the hour, especially when you consider her world tour sold out in minutes, she stole the Super Bowl halftime show and hasn’t released new music in almost three years.

Numerous artists linked to the album already, including Clean Bandit (who called their time in the studio with Beyoncé “insane”), Ed Sheeran, Future (who once mentioned he was at “Jay’s place” but was actually “working with Bey”), D.R.A.M. (pictured in the studio with the singer), Naughty Boy and - strangely - Car Delevinge.

Fingers crossed a new album out in April, it might be a good month to renew that TIDAL membership.
