Recently, the slang “Spaz” gained popularity after it was used in a song by Beyoncé and Lizzo.
Both songs have caused controversy on social networking platforms such as Twitter.
There’s a debate on Twitter about whether its use is an obscenity.
Some say the word is not offensive while others say it is a derogatory term.
In this article, you’ll learn why Beyoncé and Lizzo cut “Spaz” from their album and which songs have that slang.

Which Beyoncé song is “Spaz”?
Beyoncé’s song “Spaz” is “Heated”.
It was part of Renaissance, the seventh studio album released by Parkwood Entertainment and Columbia Record.
The song’s official lyric video was released on July 29, 2022.
It has over 1 million views on YouTube.
The backlash was “Spazzin’ on that ass”.
Apparently, the word is a profanity originating in Great Britain.
In medical terms, “spasticity” is a disability that prevents people from controlling their muscles.
Beyoncé announced the next day that the word would be removed from the song and replaced with “blast”.
Currently, the lyrics of “Spazzin’ on that ass” have been changed to “Blastin’ on that ass”.
There is a debate on Twitter about the meaning of the word.
It is clear that the use of “Spaz” in Beyoncé’s song is not aimed at people with cerebral palsy.
This is because its main definition is “loss of physical or emotional control”.
However, the sub-definition of the word is “Twitching”.
Therefore, some people interpret the word as mocking people with disabilities.

Lizzo’s song with “Spaz” is “Grrrls”.
It’s from the musician’s upcoming album—Special.
The official audio version of the song was released on June 10, 2022 and has been viewed more than 1.3 million times.
According to Lizzo’s tweet, she knows that “Spaz” is bad for some people.
So she created a new version of Grrrls with changed lyrics.
This is the result of her listening and acting.
She went on to say that she never wanted to promote any offensive language.
The tweet that caught Lizzo’s attention was from @hannah_diviney.
She said that her disability, Cerebral Palsy, is classified as Bilateral Spasticity, so “Spaz” is a vulgar word.
The tweet received over 9,500 likes and over 900 retweets.
Political correctness is increasingly important—but harder to achieve in this generation because of the rapid emergence of new groups, ideologies, and definitions.
Therefore, it is not uncommon for an artist to misplace the lyrics that might offend the group.
