The backlash from the group that felt a lyric on her new album was offensive was heard by Bey.

The line "sp*zzin' on that ass, sp*zz on that ass" is included in the song "Heated". According to Variety, after being called ableist, Bey decided to replace it with something else.

The word was never meant to be used in a way that was harmful.

When the album was released, the singer was met with disdain online, with one saying she's still a powerhouse of a performer, before adding "But that doesn't excuse her use of ableist language."

The term "spastic" refers to the inability to control the spasms that occur in the body.

Lizzo dropped her single, "Grrrls," back in June, and this decision follows her call to do the same thing.
