Fivio Foreign samples the Destiny Child track "Say My Name" on his B.I.B.L.E. track "What's My Name."
However, to clear the sample he had to take some notes from Beyonce.
Hov's wife said that Fivio's original bars were too vulgar so he had to clean them up.

“Shoutout Destiny’s Child, appreciate that, they cleared that joint,” Fivio explained to Ebro. “[Sony exec] John “Big John” Platt and them. Beyoncé had to hear it. She heard it. It was a little vulgar, a little bit for her, at first. I cleaned it up, I cleaned it up, I cleaned it up a lot.
“It was like, ‘You can’t be talking about girls like that."
Platt then explained to Fivio that by making the lyrics less vulgar, he could make the record bigger. Fivio said he appreciated the advice.
