Background
There are many similarities between Beyonce's "Diva" and the song "A Milli" by Lil Wayne. This is due to the fact that both are produced by Bangladesh. In an interview with MySpace, Knowles was asked if she agrees that "Diva" is a woman's equivalent to "A Milli". Knowles replied "It is, in a way....it wasn't consciously."

Critical reception has been mixed. Entertainment Weekly magazine states, "'Diva', with its metallic kick drum and sly vocal stutters, carries itself like the feminine companion to Lil Wayne's hypnotic summer hit 'A Milli'"[5], while Allmusic notes, "'Diva', a variation on Lil Wayne's "A Milli", is the only track that could go toe to toe with the likes of... "Freakum Dress" or "Ring the Alarm" at least in terms of audacity.". British newspaper The Guardian, reviewed the song negatively, stating, "The sonic trickery on the most experimental track, Diva, isn't interesting enough to distract you from the absence of a tune."

Diva lyrics- Beyonce

I'm a, I'm a, a Diva (hey)
[x6])

[Chorus:]
Now diva a female version of a hustla
Of a hustla
Of a, of a hustla
[Repeat]

[Verse:]
Stop the track, let me say that
I told you give me a minute and I'll be right back
If you [? ] and they said that I couldn't get it
I done got so sick with Benji's that I can't spend it
How you gone be talking shit
You act like I just got a flick
Been the number one diva in this game for a minute
I know you read the paper; I'm the one that they call the queen
Every radio in the world know me cause that's where I be

I'm a, I'm a, a Diva (hey)
[x6]

[Chorus:]
Now diva a female version of a hustla
Of a hustla
Of a, of a hustla
[Repeat]

[Verse:]
When he pull up, wanna pop my hood up
Bet he betta have a six pack in the cooler
Getting money
Diva's getting money
If you ain't getting money then you ain't got nothing for me
Tell me something (tell me something)
Where yo boss at? (Where yo boss at)
Where my ladies up in here that likes to talk back (that like to talk back)
I wanna see ya'll (see ya)
I'd like to meet ya (meet her)

She ain't no diva

[Chorus:]
Now diva a female version of a hustla
Of a hustla
Of a, of a hustla

I'm a diva bets believe it you see how she getting paid
She ain't calling him or greet him don't need him her best man
This is a stick up, stick up

Take it to another level no passengers on my plane

I'm a, I'm a, a Diva (hey)
[x6]
This is a stick up, stick up
(I need them bags or that money)
I'm a stick up, stick up
(You see them bags or that money)

[Chorus:]
Now diva a female version of a hustla
Of a hustla
Of a, of a hustla
[Repeat]

I'm a, I'm a, a Diva (hey)
