@rejemy Yep, see my link above. Of course the particular dog in question has color-shifting eyes and is a reincarnated medicine man, but you get my point.
I just watched this video. It's pretty clear she's saying "Me and my boo boo riding." The line "with his chick right beside him" pretty much seals the deal there. Not her boof (that's not a thing); her boo (that is a thing).
Also, Beyonce is the most boring pop star of all time.
y'all.. serious ? ' me and my boo and my boo boo ridin' ? me and my man and my big old ass taking a spin in my car.. y'all really ? i don't think you ready for this jelly...
I would only point out, it's a Beyonce song. Who gives a damn what a "boof boof" is?
Okay, okay, that's just curmudgeonly, but in truth I stopped paying attention to pop culture words back when everyone was still saying, "miggida mac".
I didn't care what bitch whoever wanted to smack up actually was.
I still have no idea what "subrabae" is. Neither do I care.
In the end, Beyonce doesn't move me any more than Kriss Kross or Prodigy.
Phat Sidy, however? Hell, them's some smokin' tunes. Doesn't really matter what the technical definition of subrabae is. If I ever learn, I'm sure it will change my relationship to the song and album, but I'm not going to hang the funk out to dry just because I don't understand what subrabae is.
Okay, I would also point out that it's zumba. But that's beside the point.
Also, @11 and @14, hate if you want, but Beyonce is one of the most (if not the most) talented pop stars working today. Have you seen this? Goosebumps. http://lifeandtimes.com/pregame

@18 I'm not denying she's a talented singer and performer, but her music is completely flat and lifeless and her persona is so conventional it's almost non-existent. She's just too safe for my taste.
