Beyoncé continues to amaze us. Last week she surprised us with her Netflix documentary Homecoming along with her live album.
This time, Queen Bey used her Instagram story for the first time to announce a new dance challenge for her remix to the iconic song “Before I Let Go” by Frankie Beverly and Maze. Her rendition brings a funky twist to the classic hit.
She posted a yellow page with the hashtag #BeforeILetGoChallenge next to a heart eyes emoji and her famous bumblebee symbol.
The Beyhive jumped on the opportunity and began posting their dance routines and tagging @beyonce and #BeforeILetGoChallenge.
The announcement of the challenge was only the beginning, however. The best part came after the superstar actually began to repost fans’ videos on her Instagram story.

Like many of Bey’s dance hits, the lyrics break down the dance moves:
I just wanna have a good time (Turn around)
Turn around, kick, then slide
And twirl that a– to the right, now
Ooh, bunny hop, bunny hop, drop, pop
Cross your legs, turn around and clap
Shuffle to the left, let’s glide now
Ooh, drop it down, drop it down low, low
So grab your friends, make your routine, and make sure you tag #BeforeILetGoChallenge so you can have a chance to be recognized by the queen herself.
