"Love Drought" is a song by American singer Beyoncé. It is the seventh track on her sixth studio album, Lemonade (2016), released through Parkwood Entertainment and Columbia Records. The song's music video, directed by Kahlil Joseph, is part of Beyoncé's 2016 film Lemonade, aired on HBO alongside the album's release.[1]
It was written by Ingrid Burley, Mike Dean and Beyoncé while the production was handled by the latter two. Burley was inspired to write "Love Drought" following an unpleasant experience with representatives at Parkwood Entertainment. Following the release of Lemonade, the track appeared on several music charts, including 47 on the US Billboard Hot 100 and top 100 in the UK, Scotland, and Canada. Beyoncé performed the song in a medley with "Sandcastles" at the 59th Annual Grammy Awards in February 2017.
