Beyonce and Miguel Hint At Future Collaboration

Posted byBy ABS Contributor | Published on: CommentsComments (0)

Beyonce has returned to the studio to work on her fifth studio album. While the list of features, writers and producers continue to grow, R&B singer Miguel may soon join that list. The “Adorn You” singer “triple confirmed” a collaboration with Beyonce is in the works.

“I just got word that I’ll be in [the studio] with Beyonce tomorrow which is amazing,” Miguel revealed after his October 26 performance. Even he had to admit that when he first heard the news, he figured it was just a rumor.

“I heard it from my team, and I was like, ‘Are you serious? Are you sure? Are we talking about the Beyonce?’ And after taking a second to confirm and double confirm and triple confirm, I’m excited to hear the direction of her new material,” Miguel added.

Although the 26-year-old R&B crooner was excited to work with the “Countdown” singer, he did admit that he isn’t all that prepared for the experience so he’s going to just “ride that wave.”

“I think being a part of someone else’s creative process is all about having your surf board ready and just [being] ready to ride that wave,” he explained. “I don’t really know what she sees for herself or what direction she’d like to go with this album and I think that’s the exciting part about it. You just ride the wave and see where it goes, so I’m really excited.”

Democracy needs journalism it can trust.

This election season, the stakes are higher than usual — and so is the pressure on newsrooms to soften their coverage, stay quiet, or just disappear. Independent reporting, the kind that answers to readers instead of advertisers or political pressure, matters more in a moment like this, not less.

For over 14 years, Atlanta Black Star has stayed independent and reader-funded. We have no corporate owner and no shareholders telling us what to cover or how to cover it. That independence is also our biggest vulnerability: nothing protects it except readers choosing to fund it directly.

Newspaper ad revenue has fallen more than 80% since 2005, and local newsrooms are closing at a rate of roughly two a week nationwide. When outlets go under in a moment like this, it's rarely the independent, reader-funded ones that get to stick around.

We know a request for support isn't why you came here. But without readers choosing to fund this work directly, the depth of reporting we can do at home and abroad shrinks along with everyone else's. If you're not in a position to give, that doesn't change how much we value you as a reader.

If you are able to, a recurring contribution does more for us than a single one-time gift, because it lets us plan the next investigation instead of just the next invoice. It takes about 30 seconds, no long form, no account. Thank you for continuing to support independent journalism and freedom of the press.
