Beyoncé has vowed to alter the lyrics to one of her new songs after receiving criticism from the disability community.
In a statement released Monday, a representative for the Grammy winner confirmed she will change the words to “Heated,” a track from her seventh studio album, “Renaissance,” that includes an ableist slang term for “spastic.”
“The word, not used intentionally in a harmful way, will be replaced,” read the statement from Beyoncé's team, obtained by Variety.
