Beyoncé really secured Big Freedia for their 'Break My Soul' anthem
When Beyoncé pulls through, it’s always memorable. Queen Bey went all out with the hype for her new ‘Break My Soul’ single and she made sure to pull through with the Southern queen Big Freedia.
Big Freedia and Beyoncé have teamed up
While the world had to wait until midnight Monday, it was well worth it with the anthem hitting hard and giving off the New Orleans crooner’s signature sound.
You Already Know! Big Freedia– the Queen of Bounce –is excited to announce that she lends her vocals and distinct New Orleans Bounce flavor to the new Beyoncé single, ‘Break My Soul,’ out today. The single comes out just one week before Big Freedia hits the screen again, this time on College Hill: Celebrity Edition. The reboot follows Big Freedia and other celebs–Nene Leaks and Lamar Odom– as they return to college to expand their educational horizons.
