"Break My Soul" is a song by American singer and songwriter Beyoncé. It was released on June 20, 2022, through Parkwood Entertainment and Columbia Records as the lead single from Beyoncé's seventh studio album Renaissance (2022). The song was written by Beyoncé, Tricky Stewart, The-Dream, Jens Christian Isaken and Jay-Z, and produced by the former four. It samples Big Freedia's 2014 bounce song "Explode", written by Big Freedia and Adam Pigott, and Robin S.'s house song "Show Me Love", written by Allen George and Fred McFarlane.

"Break My Soul" has been described as a dance-pop and house track. The song was met with critical acclaim upon release, with praise towards its production and lyrics. "Break My Soul" topped the US Billboard Hot 100 and Hot Dance/Electronic Songs charts. Outside of the United States, "Break My Soul" topped the charts in Croatia, Ireland and Israel, and peaked within the top ten of the charts in several other countries, including Australia, Canada, and the United Kingdom.

Background and release

In an interview with the British Vogue in June 2022, Beyoncé announced her upcoming seventh studio album Renaissance, set for release on July 29,[1] and called it "her most ambitious musical project to date".[2] The song title and its release date were revealed through the singer's social media bios on June 20, 2022; no further announcement was made.[3] Several streaming services, including Spotify and Apple Music, immediately confirmed the news.[4]

"Break My Soul" was revealed to be the title of the album's first single.[5][6] Originally intended to be released at midnight Eastern Time on June 21 to coincide with the 2022 June solstice, the song was released to music streaming service Tidal and YouTube two hours prior, on June 20.[7][8][9] "Break My Soul" marks Beyoncé's first single release from a solo studio album in six years.[10]

Robin S. told British TV morning show Good Morning Britain that she only found out that "Show Me Love" had been sampled when her son called her to tell her that she was trending on Twitter. She told the hosts that she was grateful and open to collaborating with Beyoncé in the future.[11] The sampling also led to the singer being inundated with requests from record labels, corporations and other artists to license the song's master recordings for various purposes. Robin S. further praised Beyoncé for acknowledging and appreciating her music, calling it "one of the highest compliments ever".[12] American singer Crystal Waters, who helped make house music mainstream in the 1990s, said she was "ecstatic" when she heard "Break My Soul", and expressed gratitude for Beyoncé for helping shine a light on underappreciated house singers.[13]

Composition

Pitchfork writer Matthew Strauss described the song as "a dance song that is intended to mark the start of a new era with new anthems".[3][14] Mikael Wood of the Los Angeles Times called the track a "thumping 1990s-style house jam" with lyrics that connect the song "explicitly to its roots in Black and queer communities".[15] Others wrote that the record is a "boisterous and euphoric slice of '90s diva house" (Tara Joshi of The Guardian),[16] a "confidence-oozing comeback that embraces nu-disco" (Kyann-Sian Williams of NME),[17] and "the mother of all dance-pop tunes" (Jack King of GQ).[18]

Lyrically, the track sees Beyoncé "using her growliest voice to describe a search for liberation from a crushing job... and a nerve-jangling pandemic" and is "filled with dancefloor-friendly lines... and a repeated exhortation of 'Everybody'." In the chorus, "[t]he title is flipped" as Beyoncé sings "You won't break my soul".[14][15] Fans and media outlets drew connections between lyrics like "Now I just fell in love / And I just quit my job" and the Great Resignation, a surge in Americans leaving their jobs due to wage stagnation and dissatisfaction with labor conditions.[19] Glamour reported that some listeners had already quit their jobs due to these lyrics and expected others to follow suit.[20]

"Break My Soul" prominently samples Big Freedia's 2014 bounce song "Explode" and Robin S.'s 1993 house-pop single "Show Me Love".[21] According to Musicnotes.com, the song is performed in the key of G♯ minor with a tempo of 115 beats per minute in common time. Beyoncé's vocals span from F♯3 to D♯5 in the song.[22]

"Break My Soul" was lauded by critics upon release.[23] In a five-star review for i, Lauren O'Neill described "Break My Soul" as a "floorfilling home run of a comeback" that makes you "give in to the impulses of your body and lose yourself in it". O'Neill praised Beyoncé for exploring new sounds on the track, while employing her impressive vocals and rapping skills "to offer something that feels completely new and still entirely her own".[24] British music critic Kitty Empire described the song as an "instant classic" and an "ecstatic house music anthem of our times".[25]

Variety's Jem Aswad described the song as highly anticipated by fans of Beyoncé, calling it "a driving dance track", before acknowledging the song's "plinking" and "insistent" hook.[14] Julianne Escobedo Shepherd of Pitchfork called the track "dancefloor liberation" that features "Beyoncé as an SSRI, her attempt to assuage widespread depression and crushing stress." She goes on to highlight the song's position in a lineage of vocal house music and "Black queer tradition", calling it a "palimpsest [with] evocations and sounds layered deep in the sense memories of club heads."[26] Writing for NME, Kyann-Sian Williams reported that "It's amazing to see a rise in black visibility in dance music" referring to Drake and Beyoncé projects. Williams finds some problems in the track, but nevertheless affirms that "singing over dance tracks is not easy, and only the best R&B stars can do so" in a song "sassy, full of pride; [...] It's more than a few tempo and melody issues, thanks to its beautiful message of confidence".[17]

Writing for Billboard, Larisha Paul highlighted the song's "nearly five-minute run time in an algorithmic streaming age where even venturing beyond three minutes feels like a risk." Further, she praised the production for "allow[ing] the record to breathe, trading in rushed, overcrowded urgency for high energy, four-to-the-floor beats."[27] Kyle Denis of the same publication praised Beyoncé for overcoming ageism in the music industry, writing that the elements of bounce and rap help the house track feel "fresh and uniquely Beyoncé." He further praised her for honoring dance music's Black and queer origins, building on her transformation into "one of the key sociopolitical artists of the past decade" that began with Lemonade (2016).[28]

Rolling Stone placed the song at number 108 on its list of the 200 Greatest Dance Songs of All Time.[29]

North America

In the United States, "Break My Soul" debuted at number 15 on the Billboard Hot 100 with only three days of sales, becoming Beyoncé's 41st top 40 single as a solo artist and her highest debut since "Walk on Water" in 2017.[31] The song also debuted atop the Digital Songs chart, becoming Beyoncé's tenth number one.[31] The following week, the song reached a new peak of number seven after a full tracking week, becoming Beyoncé's 20th top ten single as a solo act and her 30th career top ten single, which includes Destiny's Child.[32] The song also became Beyoncé's first top-ten single in the United States since 2020's "Savage Remix" with Megan Thee Stallion and her first solo top ten since 2016's "Formation".

This marked the charts longest gap between solo number one singles since Cher's "Believe" ascended to the top of the chart in March 1999, 24 years and 12 months since "Dark Lady" in March 1974.[34] The song also topped the Hot R&B/Hip-Hop Songs, Hot R&B Songs, and logged a sixth week atop the Hot Dance/Electronic Songs chart, becoming the first song ever to top all four charts simultaneously.[34]

Further, the song became only the ninth song ever—and the first since Toni Braxton's "You're Makin' Me High" debuted at number nine in May 1996—to debut within the top ten since the chart began in 1992.[35] The song topped the chart for the week ending July 31, becoming Beyoncé's 9th number-one on the chart, tying her with Chris Brown for the third most number one songs on the chart.[citation needed]

In Canada, "Break My Soul" debuted at number 29 for the week of July 2, 2022.

In the Republic of Ireland, the song debuted at number 18 on the Irish Singles Chart, becoming her 24th top 20 single in the country.[citation needed] The following week, the song reached a new peak of number two, becoming Beyoncé's first top ten single in the country since 2017's "Walk on Water" with Eminem.[41] Upon the release of Renaissance, "Break My Soul" rose two positions to number one, overtaking Kate Bush's "Running Up That Hill".
