Levi’s is paying tribute to Beyoncé after she praised the brand on her new album.
On Friday, the star’s second meal in it renaissance album series, Cowboy Carter, dropped — and includes a reference to a brand of denim. In his song “Levii’s Jeans,” which features Post Malone, he sings, “Boy, I’ll let you be my Levi’s/ So you can hug it– all day long.”
The double “I” in the title of the song is a reference to Cowboy Carter which serves as act II in renaissance series. Several other track titles also get the double “I” treatment including “AMERICAN REQUIEM,” “SPAGHETTII” and even her cover of the iconic Beatles song “BLACKBIIRD.”

Shortly after the album’s release, Levi’s Instagram account got in on the fun. The fashion company updated its profile pictures to spell out the brand’s name with two “I’s” and changed its bio to read: “FKA [formerly known as] Levi’s 🐝.” The bee emoji is, of course, to denote Beyoncé’s Beyhive fandom.
The denim brand also shared a post mentioning it on the star’s album. On Friday, Levi’s posted several photos of its classic jeans with the caption: “Oh, to be Levi’s jeans right now 👖🤠.”
Beyoncé fans took to the comments section to share their excitement about the brand getting involved in the Cowboy Carter fun.
“The lion is in the beehive >>>> 🐝🐝👑,” wrote one commenter.
“Levii’s jeans are the new national anthem,” joked another.
“DENIM ON DENIM!” another fan chimed in, referencing the new song’s lyrics.
