Disability campaigners are exasperated after the singer uses an ableist slur on her new song Heated.

"This is a direct hit at me [and] he does this stuff all the time. The reason I'm annoyed is because I know it was on purpose." It appears that the basis of Kelis's disagreement lies with them. Kelis said on Instagram. "It's common decency." that's not going away," she said in her video. It's very disappointing." Kelis said she had not been informed in advance, and that her "mind is blown" by the "level of disrespect". However, Beyoncé would not have had to seek Kelis's permission to reference Milkshake, as she is not a credited writer on the song and does not own the copyright. "It's not hard. "What was the point of Lizzo changing her lyrics if Beyoncé could just casually drop a song that has the same exact words in it?" "If you think of how many people that song will go through and not one of them thought, 'Hang on a minute', and not one person was not aware of the hoo-hah when Lizzo used the same word. "It's a word we would never, ever use in the UK - although we recognise it's sometimes used differently in the US."

“I thought we’d changed the music industry and started a global conversation about why ableist language — intentional or not — has no place in music,” Diviney wrote.

Activists condemned the use of the word in social media posts, pointing out that another pop star, Lizzo, had removed the same lyric from a song following similar backlash in June.

Just days after the release of her seventh studio album, "Renaissance," Beyoncé is changing her lyrics to the song "Heated."

So sick of non-disabled artists not recognizing harm in their words" A representative for Beyoncé has confirmed to Variety the lyrics will be replaced. As a fat Black woman in America, I've had many hurtful words used against me, so I understand the power words can have (whether intentionally, or in my case, unintentionally). I'm proud to say there's a new version of "Grrrls" with a lyric change. She said: "It's been brought to my attention that there is a harmful word in my new song 'Grrrls.' Let me make one thing clear: I never want to promote the derogatory language. But that doesn't excuse her use of ableist language."
