About This Track

A Dork five-star record, 'RENAISSANCE' marked Beyoncé's exuberant return to dance and club culture after a decade of weightier artistic statements. 'THIQUE' arrives as the album's twelfth track, a braggadocious hip-hop cut where she raps about body confidence and desire over trap-influenced drums and a muted techno bassline. Produced by Beyoncé, Hit-Boy, and Lil Ju, the song finds her at her most playful and unfiltered, channelling the album's loose, carefree spirit into verses that celebrate physical presence without apology. The lyrics lean into swagger and provocation, Beyoncé crediting herself as she delivers lines like 'that's that real thique' and 'look at your body, right' across a production that nods to Miami bass and 1996 freaknik energy. It's body music in the most literal sense, part of the album's broader homage to black and queer dance culture, filtered through her singular prism. The track's dubstep-oriented framework and rapid-fire delivery sit comfortably within 'RENAISSANCE''s sequenced flow, a record designed to play as one long DJ set where even the stranger moments feel essential. Where 'Lemonade' offered emotional excavation, 'THIQUE' and its parent album prioritise physical release and celebration. It's Beyoncé at her most direct, the sort of track that makes no attempt to compete on introspection because it's too busy commanding the floor.

"THIQUE" is a track by Beyoncé, from the album RENAISSANCE, released 28th July 2022. The track is 4:05 long. It's filed under Pop. Full lyrics are available below. Dork has published 17 articles about Beyoncé.

Lyrics

THIQUE

Cash gettin' bigger
Racks gettin' bigger
Cash gettin' larger
He thought he was loving me good, I told him, "Go harder"
She thought she was killing that, I told her, "Go harder"
Just look at this alkaline wrist 'cause I got that water
Racks gettin' thiquer
Cash getting thiquer

That's that thique, that's that real thique
That's that jelly, baby, champagne and cherry, baby
That's that thique, that's that ball drop
That's that keep going, that's that never stop

That's that thique, that's that na-na, that oochy coochy, 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 thique all over that yacht, now
Uh, that's that freaknik, that's that 1996
That's that moon Miami bass, 12 in the trunk, 808
Uh, that's that Castro, eat that thick like Mastro's
She say she on a diet, girl, you better not lose that, though

That's that thique, that's that real thique
That's that jelly, baby
That's that really, baby
That's that thique, that's that ball drop
That's that keep going, that's that never stop

Baby, that's that thique
That's that thique
Baby, that's that thique
That's that thique
Look at this sh-

Ooh, it's that strawberry, this that grape and cherry
This that Ginsu, cut that b- like culinary
Ooh, this the bounce, spend my money, make it count
If it's lost then it get found
Just keep dropping that sh- down

That's that summer
That's them hummers
That's that girl, give me your number
That's that Jordy
That's that Scarlett
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
They got to make a fold out to fit in 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"

Racks getting thiquer
Cash getting thiquer
Cash getting larger
He thought he was loving me good, I told him "Go harder"
(That's that thique) thought she was killing that sh-, I told her "Go harder"
(That's that thique) look at this alkaline wrist 'cause I got that water
(Baby, that's that thique) racks getting thicker
(That's that thique) cash getting
Look at this

Ooh, baby, come feel me
Ooh, 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 your mind
I'm all up in your mind (I'll breathe you in, I'll think your thoughts)
'Cause I'll read your mind, I'll read
