As prominent artists continue to try out new genres and sounds, Beyoncé channels 90s house music sound for 'Break My Soul.'

Stream “Break My Soul” below. The latest pop star to dabble in house music is 28-time Grammy Award winner, Beyoncé. Following in the recent footsteps of Drake‘s heavily house-inflected Honestly Nevermind, Beyoncé is reminding the masses that house music’s origins started with black artists. “Break My Soul” is Beyoncé’s first single of 2022 and is a preview of her forthcoming album, Renaissance. While the Houston-native icon has not shared if the album as a whole will take on a house music framework, word has already surfaced that Honey Dijon plays a critical role in the oncoming record’s production, signaling to a house-fueled affair from Queen Bey.

Federal Reserve Chairman Jerome Powell wants to increase joblessness in the US in order to save the economy. But Beyoncé may beat him to it.

But if Beyoncé goes where Powell has not, "Break My Soul" also presents fans with somewhat of a predicament: "Now if I quit my job, how I'ma pay for the tour?" The song, Beyoncé's first single since Juneteenth last year, blends 1990s club culture with 2022 Pride vibes. "Release your anger/Release your mind/Release your job/Release the tide/Release your trade/Release the stress/Release your love/Forget the rest," sings Big Freedia, lyrics that embrace both the socio-economic pandemic fatigue and the desire to break free of it.

No one puts on a festival show quite like Beyoncé. From Glastonbury to Beychella, Billboard's rounded up photos of her most memorable sets.

(She was, however, already on her way to dominating the Billboard Hot 100 for the rest of 2003 with pre-release singles “Crazy in Love” and “Baby Boy,” which would go on to reign atop the chart for a combined 17 weeks from July to November.)

While we wait for 'Renaissance' to drop on July 24, the Beyhive is frantically trying to decode clues about the album to come. The speculation is the point.

Renaissance is described as “Act I” on Bey’s website, and British Vogue reports that there is a “thrilling abundance” of new music on the horizon. It’s not just about music, it’s about narrative, and fervid speculation is part of the deal. But, with the exception of 4, each of those projects was an almost complete surprise, with little to no advance warning, and now Beyoncé’s given us more than a month to anticipate her seventh studio album. The British Vogue shoot, in which Beyoncé was dressed as a stunningly wealthy club kid, gave us the first hint that Beyoncé’s house-music era has begun. At midnight on June 17, we received confirmation that Queen Bey would release her seventh studio album, Renaissance, at the end of July. Then last night, around 9:30 p.m. central time, she graced us with the first single, “Break My Soul,” a house bop that is both pro-boogie and pro-rest. But there is something wonderful on the horizon, a paradigm shift, the rumblings of which first appeared two weeks ago when Beyoncé Knowles-Carter mysteriously deleted all the profile pictures of her social media accounts.
