Beyonce is on the cover of the latest Complex Magazine looking better than a $100 million ATM receipt.

The “Girls (Run The World)” singer opens up about the first time she heard Frank Ocean, Kanye’s heartfelt song lyrics and how her husband Jay-Z is already a father. Check out what she had to say. 

On Frank Ocean and Odd Future: “Jay had a CD playing in the car one Sunday when we were driving to Brooklyn,” she recalls of hearing Frank Ocean for the first time. “I noticed his tone, his arrangements, and his storytelling. I immediately reached out to him — literally the next morning. I asked him to fly to New York and work on my record.”

On Kanye West’s Personal Song Lyrics: “The fact that he’s belting out his pain, his confusion, and his anger, with no pre-written lyrics, was so moving,” she says. “He’s singing his heart out for five minutes. He is so vulnerable. I love when an artist can be so honest.”

On Jay-Z’s Music: “Jay’s music is more than music. His lyrics have fathered generations,” she says of her husband of three years. “All that he has overcome gives millions so much hope. There are moments when I see his lips moving and I can see lyrics floating above his head and I think, ‘Wow! How did I get so lucky to be able to witness this level of genius so closely?’”
