To credit the genre of this song as 'Bounce' is highly ridiculous. This yet another example of how random and flagrant subgenre tags are, and how they should not be used in the genre category. The song is R&B and should be labeled as such. The Real One Returns ( talk) 20:32, 12 February 2016 (UTC)
Is it a little bit strange to say Blue Ivy's appearance in the video is "tied in to Beyonce's appreciation for natural hair" because she and the two other girls "sported natural afros?" They're just children. Unless there's a source for this, or Beyonce has commented on it specifically, I think it's a leap. Sadiemonster ( talk) 14:30, 7 February 2016 (UTC)
While the article's language is a bit clumsy, the idea is appropriate. The relevant lyric is "I like my baby hair with baby hair and afros", presumably a response to critics of Blue Ivy's natural hair. -- Stargirl7 ( talk) 23:02, 8 February 2016 (UTC)

I mean how is there not a section about the Police Protests of her concerts? — Preceding unsigned comment added by 96.227.247.150 ( talk) 23:57, 28 February 2016 (UTC)
Hello fellow Wikipedians,
I have just added archive links to one external link on
Formation (song). Please take a moment to review
my edit. You may add {{
cbignore}}
after the link to keep me from modifying it, if I keep adding bad data, but formatting bugs should be reported instead. Alternatively, you can add {{
nobots|deny=InternetArchiveBot}}
to keep me off the page altogether, but should be used as a last resort. I made the following changes:

The song has been certified gold in Canada, as it can be seen here: http://musiccanada.com/gold-platinum/ Please add it to this page. -- Jimoincolor ( talk) 02:44, 10 July 2016 (UTC)
Red Lobster claims that this song was responsible for a 33% boost in their sales, important context for the impact this song has had on the outside world [1]. CBC reports that this has been a key factor in supporting lobster prices and fishing incomes in rural Canada. [2]
