Beyonce graces the July cover of Essence magazine, and in her self-penned feature she dishes on taking a break, celebrating the little things and new music.
Check out the highlights:
On taking a 9-month break:
"I had talked about taking a vacation before, but always ended up in the studio after two weeks, so no one believed me. This time, though, I was serious. I was going to give myself a year to do the things I never get to do. Simple things like play with my nephew, pick him up from school, visit museums, go to concerts, see some Broadway shows, learn to cook a meal and spend time with my husband... Yes, I needed some relaxation, but I wanted inspiration too, from regular everyday things..."
On new music:
"I feel like my job in the industry is to push the limits and I feel like I have to constantly evolve. I can never be safe... It’s hard to create a new-sounding up-tempo [song] that people are going to love, not only in America but around the world, or for different ages. One thing I’ve always stood for is making people feel good."
