But this one is getting more political heat than Beyoncé is used to.
Many are furious over what they perceive to be an anti-police message in the song and video. The video does show police in riot gear and a police cruiser sinking into the water.
But "Formation" is much more complicated than that. The song and video are rich with allusions, both direct and subtle, to black cultural pride, the South, New Orleans, Hurricane Katrina, and the violence done to black people, as well as Beyoncé's own success personally.
There's a lot to unwrap in "Formation," so we've broken down many of the references in it below:
