We know at this point that the couple has been together for at least three years. Though they still have not yet confirmed their relationship at this point, Beyoncé releases her first solo album, Dangerously in Love, along with her first solo single, “Crazy in Love,” featuring Jay-Z. In a 2008 interview with Seventeen, Beyoncé retroactively confirms the relationship rumors, saying, “I was 18 when we first met, 19 when we first started dating.” So, Bey and Jay’s first encounter would have been in late 1999 or early 2000. In the visual, the couple - though their relationship is under wraps at this point - plays modern-day versions of the infamous 1920s bank robbers. This is the music video that starts dating rumors. In honor of the Carters’s latest visual collab, the Cut compiled a complete history of Beyoncé and Jay-Z’s relationship, as told through their music videos.

Bey and Jay also released a visual for their song Apeshit, a Ricky Saiz–directed video that was shot in the damn Louvre. The couple - or should we say, The Carters - announced the collaboration during their Saturday night On The Run II concert in London, after which the nine-track album showed up on Tidal. The whole world collectively canceled their plans last night when Beyoncé and Jay-Z, in typical Bey fashion, surprise-dropped their long-rumored joint album, Everything Is Love.
