Prior to this week, Solange's social media accounts had been dormant for months. She returned to both Twitter and Instagram to reveal photos, video snippets, album art and more to tout the long-awaited LP.
"Y’all! I’m filled w so much joy right now!!! Wow!" she tweeted shortly after the album's drop. "I can’t thank y’all enough for this moment and for all the feelings i feel in my body! I’m bringing home w me everywhere I go yalll and I ain’t running from shit no more. Your love lifts me up so high. Thank you"

This new music means we could get another sister moment sometime soon, not unlike when Solange and Bey performed together at Coachella in 2018. On her new BlackPlanet profile, Solange has listed a handful of upcoming tour dates, which currently consist of stops at international festivals like Orange Warsaw Festival in Poland and Parklife in the U.K. However, Americans need not despair, because she's also performing at Bonnaroo in June.
When I Get Home is out now.
