Lady Gaga will be releasing a documentary to accompany her upcoming album, Joanne, which drops this Friday. The film will reportedly follow the singer throughout the process of creating her new record. It's unclear when the documentary will be released, but it's possible it could premiere at the same time the album does.

Gaga's plan for the video was briefly mentioned in the singer's new cover story in T Magazine. "A cameraman — she is making a documentary about the new project — filmed the whole time," part of the intro read. Naturally, her Little Monsters responded with enthusiasm online.

Joanne is expected to be a personal collection from Gaga, who hasn't dropped a solo album since Artpop in 2013. It's named after her late aunt who passed away from lupus when she was 19, but the singer explained that its personal themes are universal. "I believe everybody has a Joanne in thier life," she told The Sunday Times. For a body of work so personal, a biographical supplement like a documentary makes the perfect complement. Viewers can probably expect Gaga's whole album-making process in the film.

Though releasing a new album with an accompanying work is nothing new (Frank Ocean's Blonde had an accompanying magazine, for example), a documentary is still interesting choice, especially during a time when visual albums—from Beyonce's Lemonade to Drake's Please Forgive Me—are on the rise.
