Bill Gates: Beyoncé's 'Black Bill Gates' Lyric Is a 'Strange Set of Words'

FUSE TV - Bill Gates: Beyoncé's 'Black Bill Gates' Lyric Is a 'Strange Set of Words'

On "Formation," the new Beyoncé anthem/early strong candidate for Song of 2016, Bey muses: "You just might be a black Bill Gates in the making / 'Cause I slay / I just might be a black Bill Gates in the making"

How's the original Bill Microsoft Man Gates feel about that? He gave Wired his take:

"Yeah, I hadn’t realized that she did that until somebody in the office actually sent me a copy of the lyrics and I said, 'Are you serious? This is kind of a strange set of words here.' I’m surprised—I’m not sure she said those words at the Super Bowl, though, did she?"

1: Yes, Beyoncé said "I just might be a black Bill Gates in the making" at the Super Bowl halftime show.

2: Um...?
