Washington DC, July 15

In a recent incident during singer-songwriter Beyonce's Cowboy Carter tour, her unreleased music has been reportedly stolen from a rental car used by the singer's choreographer and a dancer.

Hard drives containing Beyonce's unreleased music and several other items were stolen from a car that had been rented by her choreographer during a Cowboy Carter tour stop in Atlanta last week, according to police, as reported by CNN.

Officers responded on July 8 after receiving a call regarding a theft from a vehicle, according to police.

As per the preliminary investigation, two suitcases of her choreographer, Christopher Grant, and one of her backup dancers, Diandre Blue, have been stolen from the rented Jeep Wagoneer when it was parked on the first level of a parking deck at 99 Krog St. NE, the report said, as reported by CNN.

Two laptops and hard drives that contained watermarked music, unreleased music, footage plans and past and future set lists were among the items stolen, the report stated, as per the outlet.

Investigators with the Atlanta Police Department's Larceny from Auto Unit led the investigation. An arrest warrant has been issued for an unnamed suspect, according to police, reported by CNN.

Choreographer Grant also added that clothing, a pair of Tom Ford sunglasses and a Tumi book bag were also stolen from the vehicle, as per the report.

Blue added that a MacBook Air and a pair of headphones were among the items stolen.

Beyonce performed her fourth and final concert in Atlanta, and she will be heading to Las Vegas next for her upcoming show on July 25, reported CNN.

Why would they leave such valuable items in a car? Even in Mumbai we know better than this. Should have kept the hard drives with security at all times. Basic precaution missing here.

As an IT professional, I'm surprised they didn't have cloud backups. In this digital age, keeping unreleased work only on physical drives is risky business. Hope this serves as a lesson to all artists!

The thieves probably didn't even know what they were stealing! Just wanted the laptops and bags. Now they're sitting on gold without realizing. Hope the music doesn't leak online before official release.

Beyonce's team should offer a reward for return of the music. In India, this often works better than police investigation alone. The thieves might return it anonymously if the price is right.

So sad for the dancers too! Losing personal items during tour must be devastating. Hope insurance covers everything. Can't imagine losing my work laptop like that 😢
