'6 Inch' is the fifth track on Beyoncé's sixth studio album 'Lemonade', released in 2016 through Parkwood Entertainment and Columbia Records. The song features Canadian singer The Weeknd and was written and produced by DannyBoyStyles, Ben Diehl, Beyoncé and Boots, with additional songwriting from The Weeknd.
The track centres on a woman who commands every room she enters, stacking money relentlessly from Monday to Sunday. Beyoncé frames her as professional, self-sufficient, too smart to crave material things yet grinding without pause. The Weeknd's verse sketches the details: pesos, Yamazaki straight from Tokyo, Ace mixed with Hennessy rushing through her veins. The bridge insists she fights for power rather than possessions, pushing herself through sleepless nights because she loves the grind.
The visual accompaniment for 'Lemonade' pictures Beyoncé in a dark plantation parlour swinging a red bulb like a lasso, the light illuminating a group of seated women, and later strutting through a burning house in lace and six-inch heels. The imagery gathers black women that history has cast into shadows, fitting for an album concerned with bringing such figures to light.
