Miley Cyrus Twerk Gets Shout-Out From Jay-Z In ‘Magna Carta Holy Grail’ Song

Miley Cyrus's twerk is all anybody can talk about and now rapper Jay-Z sings about Miley's dance moves in a song from his new album "Magna Carta Holy Grail," which hasn't yet been released. It's difficult to discern if Jay-Z is praising Miley's twerk or making fun of it.

Jay-Z raps about Miley's twerk at the end of his song "somewhereinamerica."

Jay-Z sings: "When I was talking Instagram / Last thing you wanted was your picture snapped / Feds still lurking / They see I'm still putting work in / Cause somewhere in America / Miley Cyrus is still twerkin', HA! / Twerk, twerk, twerk, twerk / Twerk, Miley, Miley, twerk / Twerk, Twerk, Miley, Miley, Miley, twerk / Twerk, yeah, ugh-huh / Twerk, Miley, Miley, Miley / Only in America."

During this verse in the song, Beyoncé's hubby also can't stifle some laughter, The Huffington Post reports. It sounds like Jay-Z can't take Miley seriously, and his chuckle seems like he's mocking the 20-year-old and her dance moves.

Jay-Z was returning the shout-out to Miley, who in her 2009 hit "Party in the U.S.A" sings that a "Jay-Z song" made her want to dance.

However, The Huffington Post reports that despite the lyrics, Miley had never actually heard one of the rapper's songs. Maybe now that her name and dancing skills are featured in one, she'll give "Magna Carta Holy Grail" a listen when it officially drops July 9.

The Daily Mail reports that Miley has admitted she worked really hard to master twerking, which requires a lot of "booty action," she said. 

"I've been practicing probably for the past two years, in my own time in my living room," Miley revealed.

Despite Miley's practice, Jay-Z doesn't seem impressed.
