"Thique" (stylized in uppercase) is the twelfth track of Beyoncé's seventh solo studio album, Renaissance.
Background[]
Produced by Beyoncé, Hit-Boy, and Lil Ju, it is a braggadocious track where Beyoncé raps about her accentuating body appearance, in addition to flaunting her wealth, over a dark trap-infused hip-house beat.
Performances[]
Along with "ALL UP IN YOUR MIND" and "Drunk In Love", the song was originally on the opening night setlist of the Renaissance World Tour, accompanied by stage visuals of Beyoncé in a robot costume, and giant inflatable metallic breasts on stage. The entire section was cut for the remainder of the tour, sparking outrage from fans. The song's removal from the setlist prompted a "Justice 4 Thique" campaign across social media, even going so far as fans making posters for Beyoncé to read. In response, on August 14, 2023, Parkwood posted across its social media accounts a compilation video of fans outside the Mercedes-Benz Stadium proclaiming "Justice 4 Thique". [1]
On August 14, 2023, Beyoncé returned all three songs to the setlist for the final night of her three-night Atlanta stop at Mercedes-Benz Stadium, surprising fans and prompting speculation whether the songs will remain for the rest of the tour.
Lyrics[]
Ass getting bigger
Racks getting bigger
Cash getting larger
He thought he was loving me good, I told him, "Go harder"
She thought she was killing that shit, I told her, "Go harder"
Just look at this alkaline wrist 'cause I got that water
Ass getting thicker
Cash getting thicker (Thicker, thicker)
That's that thick, that's that real shit
That's that jelly, baby, champagne and cherry, baby
That's that thick, that's that ball drop
That's that keep going, that's that never stop
That's that thick, that's that na-na, that uchi, Gucci, la-la
Yeah, this that Fiji agua, candy girl, piñata
Hit it in the car and take you back to the casa
Bet I got you rock now, that thick all over that yacht, now
Uh, that's that Freaknik, that's that 1996
That's that new Miami bass, twelve in the trunk, 808
Uh, that's that Castro, eat that shit like Maestro's
She say she on a diet, girl, you better not lose that ass, though
That's that thick, that's that real shit
That's that jelly, n*gga, that's that really, n*gga
That's that thick, that's that ball drop
That's that keep going, that's that never stop
Baby, that's that thick
That's that thick
Baby, that's that thick
That's that thick
Look at this shit
Ooh, it's that strawberry, this that grape and cherry
Ooh, this that Ginsu, cut that bitch like culinary
Ooh, this the bounce, spend my money, make it count
If it's lost then it get found, just keep dropping that shit down
That's that summer, that's them Hummers
That's that, "Girl, give me your number"
That's that Jordy, that's that scholar that I just got out of college
That's that "I don't do this usually, I don't know what you do to me"
That, "I don't do this usually, I don't know what you do to me"
Boy you crazy, body mean, back it up like limousine
You gotta make a fold out to fit a magazine, right
Girl, look at your body, right
Boy, take this in slow, don't let go
Tell me how bad you been wanting it
And hurry up, quick, 'fore the moment ends
I like what I hear, might be sleeping in
Screaming, "Beyoncé," chocolate
Ounces, sit on that, bounce it, bounce it"
Ass getting thicker
Cash getting thicker
Cash getting larger
He thought he was loving me good, I told him "Go harder" (Baby, that's that thick)
Thought she was killing that shit, I told her "Go harder" (That's that thick)
Look at this alkaline wrist 'cause I got that water (Baby, that's that thick)
Ass getting thicker (That's that thick)
Cash getting
Look at this shit
Oh, baby, come feel me
Oh, baby, I'm all up in your mind (It's all yours)
Come here, come here (Let's make love)
Make love to your mind (I'm all up in your mind)
Make love to you (Make love to your mind)
Close your eyes (I'm all up in your mind)
I'll breathe you in, I'll think your thoughts
I'll read your mind, I'll read your mind
