"Heated" is a song recorded by American singer Beyoncé for her seventh studio album, Renaissance (2022).
Controversy[edit]
The song was met with criticism online for its use of the word "spaz" in its lyrics, which disability advocates said is an ableist slur.[1] Other users online said that "spaz" has a different meaning in African-American Vernacular English and is synonymous with "freaking out".[2][1] Beyoncé announced the following day that the word would be removed from the song, with the word soon being replaced with "blast".[3]
Commercial performance[edit]
After the release of Renaissance, "Heated" debuted on the Billboard Hot 100 chart at number 51 and on the Hot R&B/Hip-Hop Songs chart at number 20.[4]
