Beyonce Releases Surprise Album that Blows Up Twitter

Beyonce makes history by releasing her new album exclusively on iTunes in the middle of the night, without any publicity. As John Basedow (@JohnBasedow) reports, Queen B drops her fifth studio album, containing 14 new songs and 17 videos, with simple Facebook and Instagram posts. This unconventional move sent the Twitterverse into a tailspin, with professional media and regular tweeters all praising Bey's clever tactic.
