Police reports indicate that the hard drives held watermarked music, unreleased tracks, footage plans for the tour, and both past and future set lists. Alongside the hard drives, the thieves reportedly took laptops, two suitcases, designer sunglasses, clothing, and a pair of AirPods Max. Investigators told CNN that the hard drives have not yet been recovered.
Evans is now being held at Fulton County Jail on a USD 20,000 bond. Jail records reveal a long history of arrests dating back to 2002. This includes charges of armed robbery, aggravated assault, and previous incidents involving vehicle theft.
The theft has raised concerns among Beyonce’s team about the potential leak of unreleased music and tour plans. Grant and Blue, who work closely with the superstar, were the immediate victims. But the implications of the missing hard drives could extend to the singer’s broader team and upcoming performances.
