Beyoncé gave us one of her most moving songs with The Lion King inspired tune “Spirit” and she just dropped a music video that perfectly encapsulates the powerful message of her latest single.
This stunning video is filled with breathtaking scenes from the movie itself, but it also features a series of equally dreamlike sequences of Beyoncé, her backup dancers, and her daughter Ivy Blue who made a brief cameo at the very beginning of the video.
Beyoncé
wanted to capture “the beauty of color, the beauty of melanin, the beauty of
tradition” with this vibrant video. She’ll try to bring the same kind of
authenticity to the upcoming album The
Lion King: The Gift, produced and curated by her.
“This
soundtrack is a love letter to Africa and I wanted to make sure we found the
best talent from Africa, and not just use some of the sounds and did my
interpretation of it. I wanted it to be authentic to what is beautiful about
the music in Africa,” explained Beyoncé during ABC’s special The Lion King: Can You Feel the Love Tonight.
