[Intro]
Shawty, whatcha name is?

[Pre-Chorus]
Them hustlas keep on talkin'
They like the way I'm walkin'
You saying that you want me?
So press record, I’ll let you film me

[Chorus]
On your video phone (Make a cameo)
Tape me on your video phone (I can handle you)
Watch me on your video phone (On your video, video)
If you want me, you can watch me on your video phone

[Verse 1]
I love how you approach me
Fresh white, with your pants, hanging grown man low
Everything you sayin' soundin’ good to me
No need to convince me anymore
Swagger, it's right, one blade is tight
And I smell your cologne in the air
Baby, you doin' somethin' right
You just cancelled every other man here
You say you love my bag, and the color of my nails
You can see that I got it goin' on
I wanna make sure you remember me
So I'm gon' leave my number on your video phone
I got no time for frontin'
I know just what I’m wantin'
If it's gonna be you and me
When I call, they better see me on your video screen

[Pre-Chorus]
Them hustlas keep on talkin'
They like the way I'm walkin'
You saying that you want me?
So press record, I’ll let you film me

[Chorus]
On your video phone (Make a cameo)
Tape me on your video phone (I can handle you)
Watch me on your video phone (On your video, video)
If you want me, you can watch me on your video phone

[Verse 2]
You a cutie
You should let me put you in my movies
Do shoot into a star of your own hit song
We can shoot the video right here on my cellphone
I never seen a smile so pretty
I need to know I'll always have you wit' me
So take your picture on my video phone
You can pick your own song
And you could be the only one
I know you like that
Turn you into a star? I got it like that
Like that, baby, don't fight it
'Cause when I miss your call, I hit you right back
On my video phone

[Pre-Chorus]
Them hustlas keep on talkin'
They like the way I'm walkin'
You saying that you want me?
So press record, I’ll let you film me

[Chorus]
On your video phone (Make a cameo)
Tape me on your video phone (I can handle you)
Watch me on your video phone (On your video, video)
If you want me, you can watch me on your video phone

[Verse 3]
You know them G's, they be hollerin', 'specially them hot ones
Brooklyn, Atlanta, Houston, to New Orleans
When they see me, they be like "Yo B, let me call you"
You breakin' my focus, boy, you cute and you ballin'
You like it when I shake it?
Shawty on a mission, what your name is?
What? You want me naked?
If you likin' this position you can tape it
On your video phone
Hustla keep on talkin'
You like the way it's poppin'
You sayin' that you want me
Press record and baby, film me

[Chorus]
On your video phone (Make a cameo)
Tape me on your video phone (I can handle you)
Watch me on your video phone (On your video, video)
If you want me, you can watch me on your video phone

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.
