Baby, all I want is to let it go
Ain't no worries, no
We can dance all night
Get me bodied
That means come closer to me
While we grind to the beat
And your body...
Baby, all I need is to let it be
Ain't no worry, no
Boy, dance with me
Feel my body
That means come closer to me
While we grind to the beat
And your body

[Chorus: Beyoncé]
I ain’t worried, doin' me tonight
Ain't no shame, 'cause I gotta get mine
Swing my hair and kick off my shoes
Call me, boy, and let me work on you
I ain't worried, doin' me tonight
A little sweat ain't never hurt nobody
While y'all standin' on the wall
I'm the one tonight gettin' bodied
Gettin' bodied, gettin' bodied
Gettin' bodied, gettin' bodied
You want my body, won't you get my body?
You want my body, won't you get my body?
Yeah

Beyoncé

In the twenty-first century, no pop star was as poised, as polished, or as generally fierce as Beyoncé. She scored early success with Destiny’s Child, who started out as a sexier and sassier (if less adult) version of TLC, then steadily became more and more of a vehicle for Beyoncé’s operatic vocals and general diva-tude, which may have been the plan all along.

Whether appearing in TV spots, co-starring in films like Dreamgirls, or killing it every night on stadium tours, Beyoncé was omnipresent in the 2000s. Almost everybody, Beygency member or otherwise, loved shiny, hip-hop-fueled hits like “Crazy in Love”, and “Single Ladies (Put a Ring on It)”. Moving into the 2010s, Beyoncé fights on, gaining more and more traction in pop culture with her work and music.

She has made a significant impact upon the music landscape in general with her recent albums 4 and BEYONCÉ, which explored complex themes like motherhood, feminism, marriage, sexuality, and doubt in a greater depth. With Lemonade, she went a step further—the fierce, intimate exploration of marriage, infidelity, and forgiveness was her most personal and musically daring album yet.
