“Break My Soul” also leads the Hot R&B/Hip-Hop Songs, Hot R&B Songs and Hot Dance/Electronic Songs charts, pulling in 18.9 million streams during the tracking period.

The song was also given an extra push with the “The Queens Remix” featuring Madonna. The two pop icons pay tribute to numerous women throughout the song, including Santigold, Nina Simone, Janet Jackson. Rihanna and the late Aaliyah.

Despite Renaissance being the biggest release of 2022 by a woman, its arrival faced a few hiccups. Not only was it leaked two days before its scheduled release date, but some people were also up in arms for her use of the word “spaz” on the single “Heated.” Considered an “ableist” term, the word forced Beyoncé and her team to scrub it from the song.

Beyoncé then had to contend with Kelis, who was upset Pharrell used a snippet of her 2003 hit “Milkshake” for the single “Energy.” The “la la la la la” interpolation was eventually removed from the song, but that didn’t stop the BeyHive from taunting Kelis. The singer wasn’t bothered though. After being called a “cry baby,” she was asked if she was happy it was omitted.

“Yes I am actually. lol nobody cried,” she replied. When another person suggested she should be grateful Beyoncé included her 2003 hit, she said: “And that’s why you are you and thank God I am me lol.”
