Beyoncé releases a surprise new song, “Morning Dew (Donk),” which listeners can access as her first new track in about two years. Multiple outlets report that the single is tied to an upcoming 20th anniversary reissue of her 2006 studio album, B’Day. The Hollywood Reporter also says the release initiates a 60-day countdown leading into the anniversary reissue. Other coverage characterizes the track as an R&B-leaning song with a style reminiscent of early 2000s music, but the outlets largely agree on the broader rollout connection rather than offering conflicting details about the sound. Consequence of Sound and the South African both note that the track is new and linked to the forthcoming expanded edition of B’Day. Separately, the RSS News feed and Hollywood Reporter similarly state that “Morning Dew (Donk)” is expected to appear on the anniversary reissue. Across reports, Beyoncé’s release is presented as a promotional lead-in to the reissue rather than the first step toward an immediately announced new studio album.
