Ready for the biggest movie soundtrack of all time? Beyoncé just released her companion album to Disney’s live action recreation of The Lion King and it has some big names on it… major ones, even. The queen of the Beyhive teas up with Major Lazer and Shatta Wale on “ALREADY” for the album.
The Major Lazer influence is immediately apparent in the dancehall rhythm of the track, though Beyoncé is no stranger to the rhythm herself. Shatta’s verses accentuate the production while Bey’s flawlessly smooth vocals glide effortlessly along.
Listen to the full album here, and check out “ALREADY” below.
