Beyonce Roars in The Lion King!!!
Beyonce roars in Live-Action Remake of The Lion King. And…Queen Bey just dropped a brand new single Spirit to go along with the film. Disney announced that Beyonce Knowles-Carter will be producing the album attached to the film titled The Lion King – The Gift. The new single will be included on the soundtrack.
The first single to be pulled from the album, Spirit is an inspirational song with a gospel feel. The sounds of Africa will be all over it, with many global recording artists attached to the project. This is from Beyonce:
This is a new experience of storytelling. I wanted to do more than find a collection of songs that were inspired by the film. It is a mixture of genres and collaboration that isn’t one sound. It is influenced by everything from R&B, pop, hip hop and Afro Beat. I wanted to put everyone on their own journey to link the storyline,” she continued. “Each song was written to reflect the film’s storytelling that gives the listener a chance to imagine their own imagery, while listening to a new contemporary interpretation. It was important that the music was not only performed by the most interesting and talented artists but also produced by the best African producers. Authenticity and heart were important to me. – Beyonce
