Beyoncé has just released a ‘MORNING DEW’ remix pack via her label Parkwood.
The 4-track remix collection features three new versions, one with husband JAŸ-Z which samples Notorious B.I.G’s ‘Big Poppa’, an acoustic version and a new (DONK MIX) version.
The singer officially debuted the original on the 4th of July Holiday, starting a 60-day countdown to her next birthday, and the re-issue of her sophomore album ‘B’Day’, that was released two decades ago on September 4th 2006.
A demo of the track, titled ‘Donk’, had leaked online in 2023 and had since become a viral soundbite with listeners on TikTok. That version was recorded during sessions for Beyoncé’s record-breaking self-titled album, released in December 2013.
The final, revamped version – an innuendo-drenched slow-burner showcasing the singer’s vocal mastery, a distinct callback to her classic R&B roots – was written by Beyoncé, Pharrell Williams, The-Dream and Darius Dixon, and produced by Beyoncé and Pharrell Williams.
‘MORNING DEW (DONK)’ is the first new song Beyoncé since the release of her country-inspired album ‘COWBOY CARTER’ released in 2024.
