Beyoncé’s New Single ‘Break My Soul’ Hits Tidal Early

Beyoncé is all about surprise drops. After saying by way of her social media bios on Monday that her new music Break My Soul would arrive at 12 a.m. ET, the pop star appears to have launched the music early on some platforms. You’ll be able to presently stream it on Tidal and listen to it on YouTube. Break My Soul is the primary single launched from her upcoming album, Renaissance.

Renaissance will probably be Beyoncé’s seventh solo album, a follow-up to 2016’s Lemonade. A number of social media accounts (and Beyoncé’s website) have posted the album’s title alongside cryptic textual content that claims “act i.”

We have gotten our arms on another Beyoncé music within the years since Lemonade — she’s been busy with The Lion King: The Gift, a companion album to a 2019 remake of the animated movie; Disney Plus visible album Black Is King; Netflix live performance movie Homecoming; and All the things Is Love, a collaboration with Jay-Z. She scooped up an Oscar nomination (her first) for Be Alive, and received a Grammy Award for greatest R&B efficiency for her single Black Parade. However there’s nothing fairly like a Beyoncé solo album. This is a reminder of the 5 we have had along with Lemonade: Dangerously in Love, B’day, I Am… Sasha Fierce, 4, Beyoncé.

A tweet posted Wednesday by Beyoncé’s nonprofit BeyGood appears to recommend that that is certainly a solo album. The tweet features a collage of album covers, and a few eagle-eyed Twitter customers seen that one isn’t just like the others. “This album with the purple glove is not an actual album and the hand is pointing at brandy’s album… brandy’s album is titled B7 omggggg!!!! BEYONCÉ!!!,” one Twitter user wrote. Mainly, it seems the gloved hand is an easter egg teasing Beyoncé’s seventh solo album.

When is the brand new album arriving?

We are able to count on Renaissance on July 29. It’s going to be out there on streaming services together with Spotify, Apple Music, Amazon Music and YouTube Music.

What’s going to Beyoncé’s new album sound like?

On Thursday, British Vogue revealed a narrative from its Beyoncé-featuring July 2022 issue, written by Editor-in-Chief Edward Enninful. 

“Immediately, a wall of sound hits me. Hovering vocals and fierce beats mix and in a cut up second I am transported again to the golf equipment of my youth… It is music I like to my core,” Enninful wrote of listening to the album for the primary time at Beyoncé’s dwelling recording studio. “Music that makes you rise, that turns your thoughts to cultures and subcultures, to our individuals previous and current, music that can unite so many on the dance ground, music that touches your soul.”
