You guys are really slow with her news other than some chast storys.
The lyric is from yeah yeah yeah and he just tweet it and that's all.
2003 – yyy’s release “maps”
2011 – i think “what if it was ‘hold up’ instead of ‘wait’?” & tweet a tweet
2014 – i’m in the studio with diplo. i really like this one andy williams loop thing he’d been messing with. we decide to make it a song. i try to think of something to go over it. i write a hook based on the maps tweet, adding new lines/melodies. originally it was “there’s no other God above you, what a wicked way to treat the man who loves you.” i figured it was going to be a vampire weekend song, but was easily convinced it could be better/go to a new place as a beyonce song.
2015/2016 – lots of other stuff happens to that demo in terms of producing/writing. beyonce 100% made it her own & i’m very glad to have been a part of it. of course, i made sure that YYYs were credited. shoutout to diplo and everyone else involved !
From his twitter.
The 1minute song/demo was made in 2014.
