Music moguls Jay Z and Beyoncé are going to get those collaborative album rumors buzzing again. The inseparable duo have teamed up with DJ Khaled for the release of their new “Shining” single.
The Miami hitmaker unleashed the new must-hear anthem immediately following last night’s Grammy Awards ceremony.
The adorable cover artwork features Khaled’s infant son Asahd Tuck Khaled; find that below as well. Jay Z references 21 Savage at one point on “Shining,” and also raps lyrics that have led some to speculate that he’s dissing Drake: “I know y’all ain’t out here talking numbers, right? I know y’all ain’t out here talking summers, right? I know you walkin’ round, talking down/Saying boss shit when you a runner, right?” (Pitchfork)

Last night, Queen Bey dominated the Grammy Awards ceremony with multiple big wins.
Meanwhile, Queen Bey experienced quite a night at the 59th Annual Grammy Awards. Between making her baby bump debut with a stunning performance dedicated to the Knowles-Carter fam’s soon-to-be bundles of joy, two wins for Best Music Video and Best Contemporary Album, and daughter Blue Ivy Carter’s can’t-miss cameos, the night belonged to the Lemonade artist.

The infectious single is expected to appear on DJ Khaled’s upcoming new album.
Beyoncé may not have won album of the year at tonight’s Grammys, but she’s still giving us the surprise gift of new music. Following the show, DJ Khaled debuted “Shining,” featuring Bey and Jay Z, on Tidal. It’s the first single from his upcoming album Grateful, and the track is the first the couple have been on together since “Drunk In Love” from Beyonce in 2013. (ELLE)
Khaled went to Instagram last night to promote his new single.
