Earlier this month, on Juneteenth, Beyoncé released a powerful new song called “Black Parade<\/a>,” where she declared, “I can’t forget my history is her-story, yeah \/ Being Black, maybe that’s the reason why \/ They always mad, yeah, they always mad, yeah.” She also made history in May when her new verse on Megan Thee Stallion’s “Savage” hit No. 2 on the Billboard<\/em> Hot 100, with Doja Cat and Nicki Minaj’s “Doja Cat” at No. 1 — marking the first time in the chart’s history<\/a> that four Black women occupied the top spots.<\/p>\n Also on Sunday, Bey announced a new visual album called Black Is King<\/em>, due to drop on Disney+ on July 31.
