Black Is King
Directed by Pierre Debusschere, Emmanuel Adjei, Dikayl Rimmasch, Ibra Ake, Beyoncé, Jake Nava, Jenn Nkiru, Blitz Bazawule
Produced by Parkwood Entertainment, Walt Disney Pictures
A visually sumptuous, high-energy musical celebration of Black identity and self-discovery, built on mythic themes and aesthetic excess rather than narrative coherence.
This visual album from Beyoncé reimagines the lessons of "The Lion King" (2019) for today's young kings and queens in search of their own crowns.
