This unexpected release has thrilled the Beyhive, as Beyoncé had not provided music videos for her chart-topping Renaissance album in 2022. Fans had long speculated about her choice to keep visuals under wraps, even after the success of her recent album. The "Beywatch" clip, part of her Halloween-themed "Beylloween" series, follows a week where she dressed as Prince and Betty Davis, paying homage to cultural icons.

The video release also emphasizes Beyoncé’s support for Democratic candidate Kamala Harris. Recently, Beyoncé endorsed Harris by joining her at a rally in Houston, and her campaign anthem, "Freedom," was used officially by Harris. Through her influence and artistry, Beyoncé continues to energize fans ahead of the U.S. election.
