Beyoncé finally fed her BeyHive new music on Tuesday (June 21), dropping a dance track titled “Break My Soul.” The single arrives less than a week after Bey revealed the title and release date for her new album Renaissance, which is slated to drop on July 29.
Bey collabed with The-Dream for the single, and the R&B crooner took to Instagram to respond to all the crazy reactions the singer’s new track is getting online.
“I Love Making You Guys Happy,” Dream wrote on Twitter, “and even if for a second I can give anything of my self to help you get through a moment in these crazy times I’d use my entire heart to do so. No one’s fucking sleeping tonight! @Beyonce we have done something special yet again my good friend.”

“Break My Soul” arrives after rumors of a 2022 Beyoncé release gained traction on June 9, when fans noticed the Grammy-award-winning singer had removed her profile pictures from all her social media pages. Renaissance will serve as the pop icon’s seventh studio album and first solo release since 2016’s 3x-platinum Lemonade. While fans are pumped to hear from their Queen, Beyoncé fed her fans a fair share of new music between these two projects.
She delivered a joint project with her husband JAY-Z called EVERYTHING IS LOVE in 2018, followed by The Lion King: The Gift soundtrack for the Disney film in 2019. The soundtrack included the song “Black Parade,” which won a Grammy in 2021 for Best R&B Performance, Bey’s 28th win overall. The achievement earned Beyoncé the most Grammys by a female artist and tied her up with Quincy Jones for most Grammy wins for a performer.
