Beyoncéwas dropping Easter eggs in her tour visuals — and fans were none the wiser.
On Beyoncé’sRenaissance World Tour, the singer, 41, pops up for an encore in a bee costume, performing her hit “America Has a Problem” from behind a news anchor’s desk. Behind her, stock tickers and headlines blast across the concert’s massive screens.
In one of these on-screen flashes, a newspaper called “The Echo” covers the length of the screen. Sporting “America Has a Problem” as the front-page headline, fans always assumed the graphic was simply an artistic callout to her hit, which sherecently remixedwithKendrick Lamar.
The single cover for “DELRESTO (ECHOES),” however, clued listeners into the real meaning of this newspaper. “The Echo” appears yet again in the song’s artwork, with the “America Has a Problem” headline visible but cut off. It seems Beyoncé has been teasing the collaboration for months, with no one knowing the graphic’s true meaning.

Beyoncé isn’t the only major name featured on Scott’s new album. Other artists on the album includeJohn Mayeron “Sirens,”Drakeon “Meltdown,”Bad Bunnyon “K-Pop” andSZAon “Telekinesis.” That’s just a sample of thesprawling list of artists featured on the album, which almost entirely go uncredited.
Notably, the “Deja Vu” singer has been bringing her daughter, Blue Ivy, out to dance with her for a portion of her three-hour set. Speakingexclusively to PEOPLE, Beyoncé’s momTina Knowlesshared her happiness at seeing her granddaughter on stage.
“She is 11 years old, and she had one week to prepare, and she’s just getting better and better,” Knowles said. “So I’m the proud grandma, always.”
Beyoncé’s former dance captain Ashley Everett alsochatted with PEOPLE exclusivelyabout the viral moment.
“Oh my gosh, I’m like a proud auntie over here,” said Everett of seeing clips of Blue Ivy hitting the stage and sticking all the moves on her superstar mom’s international tour stops. “I was [basically] there when she was born.”
