BILL GATES IS KIND OF
WEIRDED OUT BY
BEYONCÉ’S
‘FORMATION’ SHOUT-
OUT
Bill Gates has responded to
Beyoncé ’s shout-out in her new
single “Formation.”
“I just might be a black Bill Gates in the
making,” she sings in one of the song’s
verses. “Formation” dropped as a surprise
release the day before this year’s Super
Bowl.
“I hadn’t realized that she did that until
somebody in the office actually sent me a
copy of the lyrics,” said Gates in a new
interview with Wired. “I said, ’Are you
serious? This is kind of a strange set of
words here.’ I’m surprised.”
The song does include a lot of references
to black southern culture, which Bill
Gates might not be too familiar with. (It’s
safe to guess that he’s probably never
kept hot sauce in his bag.)
He did get that his name-drop was in
reference to his immense wealth: “I
guess it’s nice that people consider me
successful.”
And he couldn’t help from name-dropping
his own brand-name Microsoft products.
“I guess I should do a Bing search and
see if there are more uses of my name
that I don’t know about.” Smooth, Bill.
