It’s not only the Beyhive who’s patiently awaiting new music from Beyoncé!

The superstar’s mom, Tina Knowles-Lawson, is also looking forward to rocking out to her daughter’s new album, Renaissance. 

In a recent interview with Entertainment Tonight, Knowles-Lawson, 68, raved about the project and teased what fans can expect come the album’s release on July 29.  

“She put two years of love into this. Many, many nights [she spent] all night working,” she said of the rumored dance and country multipart album. “I can’t wait for the world to hear it.”

“I’m a fan too. I’m very, very excited,” Knowles-Lawson said. “I just posted recently that I really miss her singing, and I do. I’m as excited as everybody else. I can’t wait for you guys to hear it.”

Fans got a sample of what’s to come on the album when Beyoncé dropped the first single, “Break My Soul,” early Tuesday morning. News of the new song arrived a day prior on Monday when the Grammy-winning singer changed her Instagram and Twitter bios to reflect the single’s release date.

Renaissance will serve as Beyoncé’s seventh studio project and first solo album since Lemonade, six years ago in April 2016. Shortly after the news of the album broke last week, British Vogue shared photos of the star’s July cover issue, written by the magazine’s editor-in-chief, Edward Enninful

Detailing his experience listening to the album ahead of its release, Enninful describes it as, “Music that makes you rise, that turns your mind to cultures and subcultures, to our people past and present, music that will unite so many on the dance floor, music that touches your soul.”
