William Earl Beyoncé’s new album “Renaissance” is a fast-paced soundtrack for the dance floor, filled with brilliant lyrics which can be funny, sexy, emotional and empowering — sometimes all in the same song.There are many layers and cultural touchstones woven throughout “Renaissance,” including revisiting and expanding upon her 2013 self-titled record, which pushed the love and marriage themes of “4” forward by embracing the sexiness of being a devoted wife. While 2016’s “Lemonade” took a detour into her examination of pain due to infidelity, it’s clear that her marriage to Jay-Z is strong.
After all, the album is partially dedicated to her “beautiful husband and muse,” according to her note to fans before the record dropped. Selecting Beyoncé’s best lyrics from any project can be a difficult task — after all, it’d be easier to cut and paste all of them.
But Variety has combed through several listens and identified our favorite parts from each song: The moments that made us laugh, think, rewind or pause because Beyoncé is just that damn good. Get ready for these lines to wallpaper social media posts for months to come.

Kelis has welcomed the removal of the ‘Milkshake’ interpolation from new Beyonce track ‘Energy’.An edited version of that track was pushed out to streaming services earlier this week after Kelis criticised the original version.In posts on social media last week, she confirmed that she had not been told that an element of ‘Milkshake’ would appear within ‘Energy’, though the writers of her 2003 hit – Pharrell Williams and Chad Hugo – were credited on the Beyonce song, suggesting they had cleared the interpolation.Kelis has criticised Williams and Hugo before, claiming that she was misled back in the day regarding who would be credited on the songs they all collaborated on, and how the copyright in those works would be shared out.It’s not clear why Beyonce decided to remove the ‘Milkshake’ interpolation from ‘Energy’, it may have been more a PR move than the result of any legal concerns relating to Kelis’s complaints. But either way, Kelis is happy that her criticisms were noted by the Beyonce camp.She confirmed this when responding to comments on an unrelated Instagram post, in which Beyonce fans were giving her grief about the re-edit.As noted by Complex, one person commented: “You happy Beyoncé took that sample off?? Cry baby”.
before their release, congratulations on making it to the future.For a second time since “Renaissance” dropped (checks notes) four whole days ago, Beyoncé has reached back for a record re-do, this time to squash a public beef with fellow pop singer Kelis, bits of whose 2003 hit “Milkshake” will no longer be heard on Track 5, “Energy.”Earlier this week, Beyoncé changed the lyrics to “Heated,” Track 11 on “Renaissance,” to remove a word that’s considered an ableist slur. Two days later, she quietly replaced “Energy” with a new version, too.The original “Energy” was interpolated with a bit of “Milkshake,” including Beyoncé singing a variation of the song’s memorable la-la-las.
Thania Garcia Beyoncé’s “Renaissance” has undergone a few post-release cosmetic changes. On Wednesday morning, Variety editors confirmed that Kelis’ “Milkshake” sample can no longer be heard on the track on Spotify — although the sample still remains on Apple Music.Given that many fans on social media expressed confusion as to what the sample actually was, popular TikTok music producer Jarred Jermaine broke it down in a recent post:This is the sample (interpolation) in Beyonce “Energy” off her album ‘Renaissance’ that uses Kelis “Milkshake” produced by Pharrell Williams & Chad Hugo.
A new version of new Beyonce track ‘Energy’ has appeared on some of the streaming services with an element borrowed from Kelis hit ‘Milkshake’ removed. The rework follows criticism from Kelis last week, who said that she was not aware that a track on Beyonce’s new album ‘Renaissance’ would include an interpolation of her song, even though the writers and producers of ‘Milkshake’ had seemingly signed off on its inclusion.Kelis recorded ‘Milkshake’ with her frequent early collaborators The Neptunes – aka Pharrell Williams and Chad Hugo – for her third album, 2003’s ’Tasty’, which was also released by the production duo’s label.She has criticised Williams and Hugo before, accusing them of backtracking on commitments regarding who would be credited on, and share in the copyright from, the songs they made together.
