The new music follows the announcement last week that she would be releasing her seventh solo studio album next month.
In the single, listed as the sixth track on the new album, the singer declares: "Bey is back and I'm sleeping real good at night", as well as singing: "If you don't seek it, you won't see it, that we all know..."
The upbeat dance track was released on Tidal, the global music streaming platform which her husband Jay-Z has previously owned stakes in, and is also available to stream in other places like Apple Music, which showed a track listing for Renaissance as featuring 16 songs in total.

Beyoncé, who has been married to rapper and businessman Jay-Z since 2008, made history last year when she became the most decorated female artist at the Grammy Awards.
She won four awards out of nine nominations, making it 28 over her career, which surpasses the 27 of bluegrass-country singer Alison Krauss.
Renaissance is the follow-up to 2016's Lemonade, which was accompanied by a 65-minute film of the same title and went to number one in many countries.
