The album was conceived as a continuation of the themes of infidelity and reconciliation explored in Beyoncé's album 'Lemonade' (2016) and Jay-Z's '4:44' (2017). The cover art shows the couple in front of the Louvre in Paris, and the title reflects a message of unity and family success. The lyrics address love, wealth, power, and social criticism, with a sound blending hip-hop, R&B, and trap.
