The star has dropped her first video on the social media platform: a compilation of fans busting a move to her latest hit, “Break My Soul.” In living rooms and offices, on the street, the beach and elsewhere, people shimmy and shake to the track she released June 20. One of them is Cardi B, who’s so excited that she added her own voice to that of the “Formation” singer.

“Seeing y’all release the wiggle made me so happy! Thank you so much for all the love for BREAK MY SOUL! – Love B,” Beyoncé captioned the clip posted Thursday.

Beyoncé’s used the hashtag for her upcoming seventh album, Renaissance, which will be released July 29, and tagged all the creators featured.

As the footage shows, the lead single has already pumped up the Beyhive and beyond.

Billboard reported Thursday that “Break My Soul” has already become Beyoncé’s 20th top 10 hit, ranking seventh on last week’s Billboard Top 100 chart. And with that, she became one of just three artists in chart history to achieve “at least 20 top 10 hits as a soloist and at least 10 top 10 hits as part of a group.” The other two: one-time Jackson 5 member Michael Jackson and Paul McCartney, a former member of the Beatles.
