“Mi Gente” is the third fastest music video to reach 400 million YouTube views, so there’s no doubt you, like the rest of the world, have listened to and grown addicted to this remixed French track. But do you know the lyrics?
We gave you the low-down on what the words meant. Now, we’ve added Bey’s lyrics, in Spanish, for the full experience, so that the next time you inevitably get down to this global, trilingual, multicultural dance anthem, you know exactly what words you’re moving to:
Mi Gente (My People)
If the rhythm makes you move your head
We got off on the right foot
My music doesn’t discriminate against anyone
So we’re gonna tear it up
Everyone moves to my stuff
I carry the party in my genes
And I’m the queen of all the boys
My people don’t stop, no one wants to leave here
The rhythm is in your head, now let go and move your feet
I love it when that bass plays, the level starts to rise
Everyone moves to my stuff
I carry the party in my genes
And I’m the queen of all the boys
My music has everyone dancing, and this is how you do it
All my people move
Look at the rhythm how it controls them
I make music that entertains
The world loves us, loves us
And it loves me
All my people move
Look at the rhythm how it controls them
I make music that entertains
My music has them dancing strong and this is how you do it
We’re tearing up the club
The party doesn’t stop, it’s just beginning
It’s like this, It’s like that
My sweetheart, la la la la la
France, Colombia
Houston (Freeze)
J Balvin, Willy William
Beyonce (Freeze)
DJ’s don’t lie, they like my people
And that went world-wide (Freeze)
We won’t turn it off, We’ll never stop
It’s another hit, and Blam!

(But do move your head)
Azul, are you with me?
Say yeah, yeah, yeah

Corner to corner, from there we go
The world is big but I have it in my hand
I’m really hard, yeah? Ok, here we go
And with time we keep moving up
And we’re still tearing it up here

Bottles up, yeah
My people don’t stop, no one wants to leave here
And where are my people?
(But do move your head)
