After reports surfaced that Beyoncé will change a lyric on her new album “Renaissance” following accusations of ableism, Monica Lewinsky is calling on the singer to make an additional rewrite.
Since the album’s release on July 29, Beyoncé has come under fire for a lyric on the eleventh track, “Heated,” which critics say contains an ableist term.
On the song, Beyoncé sings, “Spazzin’ on that a–, spazz on that a–.” Spasticity is defined as an “abnormal muscle tightness due to prolonged muscle contraction,” according to Johns Hopkins Medicine.
