BIG FREEDIA SPEAKS ON FEATURE Robin S is not the only sample to feature on Break My Soul. Bounce music artist Big Freedia's 2014 track Explode was also sourced by Beyonce's producers.
Speaking to Bustle, Big Freedia said of her feature: [I'm] excited and blessed, and like, I might faint!
Big Freedia also explained the meaning behind her lyrics, which include Release ya anger, release ya mind / release ya job, release the time / release ya trade which Beyonce fans have jokingly said will contribute to The Great Resignation.
Speaking of her own song, she said: Explode is a song about the daily stresses of life and coming to the club to release it all .
In Break My Soul, Big Freedia believed Beyonce was encouraging fans to let go of stresses in life, of relationship stress, work stress, pandemic stress .
She added: We've all had a tough couple of years, and it's time to release it all.
