Well, she did it again. During her hourlong HBO special Saturday night, Beyoncé shared a new visual album, sending the Internet into a bonafide frenzy reminiscent of that fateful night in 2013 when BEYONCÉlanded. 

Granted, we've been expecting LEMONADE for awhile now, ever since the singer surprise-dropped the "Formation" video in February and announced a world tour. But that didn't stop the Beyhive from losing their collective minds when the album suddenly became available on Tidal. Dates for other streaming platforms or physical sales haven't yet been announced.

In an interview with Elleearlier this year, Beyoncé addressed the backlash she received upon the release of "Formation," a particularly political work for the singer. She said one of her goals with her new music is to create art that "makes people feel proud of their struggle."

"I hope I can create art that helps people heal. Art that makes people feel proud of their struggle," she said. "Everyone experiences pain, but sometimes you need to be uncomfortable to transform. Pain is not pretty, but I wasn't able to hold my daughter in my arms until I experienced the pain of childbirth."

Enjoy your Saturday, Beyhive.

Beyonce's Formation World Tour kicks off in Miami on April 27.
