Beyonce has revealed a new version of 'Flawless' - referencing the infamousSolange and Jay-Z's infamous elevator fight, as well as a verse from Nicki Minaj. Listen below.

The new version features the lyrics, "Of course sometimes shit goes down when there's a billion dollars on an elevator" - a delightfully thinly-veiled reference to the recent incident during which her sister Solange was caught on CCTV attacking husband Jay-Z on an elevator.

Part way through the remix, Nicki Minaj joins in for an impressive rap verse of her own, and the song also features a small sample of Outkast's 'SpottieOttieDopaliscious'. Basically, it's bloomin' brilliant.

The song was revealed, as has become Beyonce's signature style, with no prior warning and very little fanfare, and Twitter erupted with joy.

The original version of 'Flawless' featured samples from a feminist speech by writer Chimamanda Ngozi Adichie, and was included on her 2013 self-titled album.
