Beyonce To Change Lyrics Of 'Renaissance' Post Backlash For Ableist Slur

The album “Renaissance” debuted on 29 July, but one lyric from the song “Heated” caused a lot of outrage on social media. The song includes the word “spaz” in a verse that goes like this: “Spazzin’ on that a**, spazz on that a**.”

Now, medically speaking, the term “spastic” refers to a disability that causes difficulty for people when it comes to controlling their muscles, especially in their arms and legs.
