Beyoncé Drops New Single Beyoncé is officially in album rollout mode, releasing her lead single “Break My Soul.”
Just a few days after revealing that her seventh studio album was on the way, Beyoncé surprised fans by dropping the first single from her upcoming project, Renaissance. Turning the music industry’s Friday release schedule (which she created so many years ago) on its head, Bey dropped “Break My Soul” on Tuesday. The house track samples Robin S’s 1993 hit “Show Me Love” and Big Freedia’s “Explode.”

The hip-moving House track (that samples Robin S’s 1993 smash hit “Show Me Love” and Big Freedia’s club-rocker “Explode”) will surely have day parties, and rooftop soirées, and bussit brunches jumpin’ this summer.
“Now, I just fell in love, and I just quit my job / I’m gonna find new drive, damn, they work me so damn hard,” she repeats on the song. “Work by nine, then off past five / And they work my nerves, that’s why I cannot sleep at night.”
“Break My Soul” comes just days after Bey shattered social media with her new album announcement and British Vogue cover story where she opens up about her very private life, a creative process during the pandemic, and upcoming album (rumoured to have 16 tracks).
Excerpt from the Vogue piece: “With minimal ceremony, she takes her laptop and plugs it in as we all sit on some sofas. Quietly, the superstar hits play on her upcoming album.
Instantly, a wall of sound hits me. Soaring vocals and fierce beats combine and in a split second I’m transported back to the clubs of my youth. I want to get up and start throwing moves. It’s music I love to my core. Music that makes you rise, that turns your mind to cultures and subcultures, to our people past and present, music that will unite so many on the dance floor, music that touches your soul. As ever with Beyoncé, it is all about the intent. I sit back, after the wave, absorbing it all.
The creation has been a long process, she explains, with the pandemic giving her far longer to spend thinking and rethinking every decision. Just the way she likes it.”
Naturally, the Hive swarmed her website which already features box sets with the ‘Renaissance’ album, T-shirt, and a collectable box with a 28-page booklet and mini-poster.
Not Beyoncé’s selling the merch without showing us what it looks like!
