 Release notes
 =============
+3.0.0 (2021-02-08)
+------------------
+New
+***
+
+-  All requests now go through the ``Sender`` object. This provides
+   features such as retries ``genius.retries`` and handling HTTP and
+   timeout errors. For more info have a look at the guide about `request
+   error handling`_.
+-  Added ``OAuth2`` class to help with OAuth2 authentication.
+-  Added ``PublicAPI`` class to allow accessing methods of the public
+   API (genius.com/api). Check `this page`_ for a list of available
+   methods.
+-  Added the ``Album`` type and the ``genius.search_album()`` method.
+-  Added the ``genius.tag()`` method to get songs by tag.
+-  All API endpoints are now supported (e.g. ``upvote_annotation``).
+-  New additions to the docs.
+
+Changed
+*******
+
+-  ``GENIUS_CLIENT_ACCESS_TOKEN`` env var has been renamed to
+   ``GENIUS_ACCESS_TOKEN``.
+-  ``genius.client_access_token`` has been renamed to
+   ``genius.access_token``.
+-  ``genius.search_song()`` will also accept ``song_id``.
+-  Lyrics won't be fetched for instrumental songs and their lyrics will
+   be set to ``""``. You can check to see if a song is instrumental
+   using ``Song.instrumental``.
+-  Renamed all interface methods to remove redundant ``get_``
+   (``genius.get_song`` is now ``genius.song``).
+-  Renamed the lyrics method to ``genius.lyrics()`` to allow use by
+   users. It accepts song URLs and song IDs.
+-  Reformatted the types. Some attributes won't be available anymore.
+   More info on the `types page`_.
+-  ``save_lyrics()`` will save songs with ``utf8`` encoding when
+   ``extension='txt'``.
+-  Using ``Genius()`` will check for the env var
+   ``GENIUS_ACCESS_TOKEN``.
+
+Other (CI, etc)
+***************
+
+-  Bumped ``Sphinx`` to 3.3.0
