New track launches 60-day countdown to 'B'Day' 20th anniversary edition.
About This Track
A limousine becomes the setting for Beyoncé's most explicit portrait of desire, the track built around the instruction to a driver and what follows once the partition rises. The production, co-handled by Timbaland, Justin Timberlake, and a cluster of collaborators including The-Dream and Mike Dean, pairs a sparse synthesised arrangement with a thrusting bassline and heavy drums, the electro-R&B framework stripped back enough to let every detail land. The Monica Lewinsky reference arrives without euphemism; the whole second half of the song operates in the space between preparation and abandon, forty-five minutes of getting dressed undone before the club is even reached.
The first half adopts a different register entirely, Beyoncé surveying a room full of admirers with diamond fangs and a Brooklyn brim, the call-and-response 'Hey, Ms. Carter!' establishing hierarchy before the narrative shifts. The contrast between public performance and private encounter is the song's architecture, the partition itself both literal barrier and conceptual hinge. It remains one of the most sexually forthright moments in her catalogue, the candour delivered without apology or distance.
"Partition" is a single by Beyoncé, released 13th December 2013. The track is 5:19 long. Full lyrics are available below. Dork has published 17 articles about Beyoncé.

We’ve all agreed that Beyoncé can do whatever she wants by now, right? Over the course of a flawless 30-year career, she’s been a member of one of the most influential pop groups of all time before releasing a run of boundary-pushing solo albums alongside game-changing live performances. She’s more than earnt the right for complete creative freedom and she repeatedly does things her own way tonight at the first of five sold-out stadium shows at London’s Tottenham Hotspur stadium.
The singer-songwriter continued to sweep major awards for her recent work.
The 65th Grammy Awards show is set to air on February 5th.
The greatest DJ set you'll ever hear from the greatest pop star of the modern age.
The record will feature 16 tracks, including recent single 'Break My Soul'.
