\n\tIt\u2019s been 10 years since Beyonc\u00e9<\/a> dropped her self-titled visual album, and even the notoriously quiet Queen Bey had to acknowledge the momentous occasion. When the clock struck midnight on Dec. 13, Beyonc\u00e9 took to her official Instagram page to share a brief video montage commemorating her critically acclaimed, career-shifting fifth studio album.<\/p>\n\n\n\n\t\t\t\t\tRelated\t\t<\/p>\n<\/h3><\/div>\n\n\t\t\t<\/p>\n\n\n\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/p><\/div>\n<\/p><\/div>\n<\/p><\/div>\n\n\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\n\n\t\t\t\t\tCher, Brandy, Sabrina Carpenter & More Make Our Christmas List With Fresh Holiday Hits\t\t<\/p>\n<\/h3><\/div>\n\n\t12\/13\/2023\n<\/time><\/p><\/div>\n\t\t<\/a><\/p>\n<\/div><\/div>\n\n\t\u201cI still get scared with every album release,\u201d Beyonc\u00e9\u00a0says in the background of the reel. \u201cI\u2019m constantly searching for the deeper purpose of my art.\u201d The \u201cCuff It\u201d singer\u2019s reel is a compilation of behind-the-scenes footage previously seen in her five-part Self-Titled<\/a><\/em> documentary, performance clips, pieces of the album\u2019s 17 music videos, media clips and vintage fan reactions on that fateful night of Dec. 13, 2013.<\/p>\n\n\tWith the release of Beyonc\u00e9<\/em>, Queen Bey unleashed a 14-track visual album in the middle of the tracking week with absolutely no pre-release announcement or promotion.
