This is a side of Beyonce that we haven’t seen before. On some defensive MJ “Scream” shit…she wants you to “bow down, bitches!”
“Bow Down/I Been On” is (we suppose) the first single from the diva’s upcoming fifth album, and with assistance from it-producer of the moment Hit Boy, she creates a jam that is certain to have clubgoers dancing (and drag queens giving extra attitude.) Her hometown of Houston will be pretty happy as well, since the song is sort of a tribute to the chopped and screwed sound that put the city on the musical map (at least in the hip-hop world.)
To my ears, it doesn’t sound like much of a song, but maybe she’s trying to be avant-garde? Or maybe this is just a teaser and not an official single?
I probably need a couple more listens to develop a full opinion. Right now, I’m just sort of confused.
What say you, internet?

I never thought I’d hate a B song more than the song where she sings about girls running the world.
