| Posted: 31 Jul 2020 05:00 PM PDT  Stream Black Is King starting July 31 on Disney Plus. Gareth Cattermole/GettyImagesDisney Plus subscribers now get to watch an exclusive treat: Beyoncé's newest visual album, Black Is King, which became available on the streaming service on Friday. The cinematographic album is doing well so far on Rotten Tomatoes with a 96 percent audience score and a 100 percent "Tomatometer" score, which is based on critics' reviews. Queen Bey wrote, executive produced and directed the project, which picks up where her album The Lion King: The Gift left off in honoring Black excellence and culture. The singer's first foray into the world of visual albums was in 2013, when she dropped her fifth album, Beyoncé, as a surprise release. In an Instagram post, Beyoncé explained the goal of Black Is King. "With this visual album, I wanted to present elements of Black history and African tradition, with a modern twist and a universal message, and what it truly means to find your self-identity and build a legacy," she wrote. Black Is King follows the stories of Black families throughout time and tells "a tale about a young king's transcendent journey through betrayal, love and self-identity," Disney described in a press release. The young king's loved ones help guide him to reclaim his home and throne. It features appearances from Lupita Nyong'o, Kelly Rowland, Naomi Campbell, Pharrell and more. Members of Beyoncé's family, like her daughter, Blue Ivy, and her mother, Tina Knowles-Lawson, were also in the film. The film has sparked controversy among members of the African community over its portrayal of African cultures. In the Black is King trailer (embedded below), the characters are seen wearing animal skins and face paint. Here's how you can watch Black Is King now that it's live on Disney Plus.
