Beyoncé Dropped A Surprise New Single Just In Time For The Super Bowl

by Gillian Fuller

I interrupt your Saturday afternoon festivities to bring you a very important message: BEYONCÉ JUST DROPPED A NEW SINGLE!

The track, titled “Formation,” was released Saturday afternoon on Tidal, Jay Z's music streaming service.

A music video for the song, filmed shortly before Christmas in Louisiana, debuted shortly after on YouTube (and is, of course, already blowing up).

It's rumored the song — which samples New Orleans rapper Big Freedia — will receive its first live performance on Sunday, during Beyoncé's Superbowl 50 halftime show.

No word yet on if there's more where “Formation” came from, but we'll be keeping our fingers crossed.

Download the track on Tidal and check out the video up top.
