Beyoncé seemed to have addressed the Jay-Z cheating rumours as well as the infamous Solange Knowles elevator incident on her new album, Rennaissance.
The global superstar, 40, released her highly-anticipated album on July 29, and there were many incredible messages within each track.
Her seventh LP has 16 tracks which had her addressing her relationship with Jay-Z, 52, and her sister Solange, 36.
In Plastic Off The Sofa, Beyoncé croons about the criticism of her relationship with the rapper, who she married in 2008.
“We don’t need the world’s acceptance/ They’re too hard on me/ they’re too hard on you, boy,” she sings.

She also sang about her acceptance of him: “Boy, I know you can’t help but to be yourself around me, yourself around me.
“And I know nobody’s perfect so I’ll let you be, I’ll let you be/ It’s the way that you wear your emotions on both of your sleeves/ til the face you make when I tell you that I had to leave.”
The Love On Top singer also seemingly hinted at the other women Jay-Z was rumoured to have been with.
“I’m one of one, I’m number one, I’m the only one,” she sings in Alien Superstar. “Don’t even waste your time trying to compete with me/ No one else in this world can think like me/ I’m twisted, contradicted, keep him addicted.”
At the beginning of the album, Beyoncé seemingly touches on Solange’s infamous fight with Jay-Z in a New York hotel elevator following the Met Gala in 2014.
CCTV footage had shown Solange hitting Jay-Z before a bodyguard dragged her off him. Beyonce stood still in the corner of the elevator.
In her second song, Cozy, she hints at the incident, singing: “She’s a god, she’s a hero, she survived, all she been through, confident and she lethal.
