Beyonce's "Rennaisance" is finally out, and the BeyHive has been buzzing stronger than ever.
The highly-anticipated Beyonce album has been stirring the headlines for the past few weeks - from the release of "Break My Soul," tracklist reveal, and the Grace Jones collab up until the leaked CDs this week.
But what fans of Queen B are raving about now is the seeming jab at his husband, Jay-Z's controversial 2017 infidelity - which is again referenced on a new track.
Beyonce References Jay-Z's Cheating Issue on New' Rennaisance' Track
Beyonce's rebirth in the music scene comes with "Rennaisance," her latest album since 2016's "Lemonade."
As fans described it, "Rennaisance" offers a new sound from Queen B but seemed to carry over some recurring themes from "Lemonade" - Jay Z's cheating issue.
Over to her 8th track of the album, "PLASTIC OFF THE SOFA," the GRAMMY-Winning singer referenced the infamous moment between the two of them.
"Boy, I know you can't help but to be yourself around me, yourself around me. And I know nobody's perfect so I'll let you be, I'll let you be/It's the way that you wear your emotions on both of your sleeves, 'til the face you make when I tell you that I had to leave," Beyonce sang.
Beyonce, who has always been upfront about the issue, did not hold back in the song. She even referenced herself as "the only one" in one of her lines.
"Don't even waste your time trying to compete with me. No one else in this world can think like me. I'm twisted, contradicted, keep him addicted," the line read.
Beyonce Songs About Jay-Z's Cheating
This was not the first time that Jay-Z's infidelity became a central subject in Beyonce's songs.
Famously, on "Lemonade," almost a chunk of the album has referenced the "Crazy In Love" hitmaker's emotions and state of mind during the heartbreaking moment.
In "Lemonade's" "Pray You Catch Me," Beyonce almost directly took a swipe at his husband.
Fans have also dissected Beyonce's "Hold Up," "Sorry," "Don't Hurt Yourself," "Sorry," "Becky," and even "Daddy Lessons" to have lyrics alluding to the cheating.
On the other hand, Jay-Z released "4:44" in 2017, which fans of the hip-hop mogul have described being his apology album to Beyonce's "Lemonade."
"Rennaisance" can now be heard through streaming services worldwide like Spotify and Apple Music.
