The great JAY-Z's got a lot of people talking after the release of his 4:44 album, and one of them is singer Eric Benét, whom he name-drops on the first song of the project.

On the song in question, titled "Kill Jay Z," Hov describes the details of his once-crumbling marriage with his wife Beyoncé. To contextualize the situation—his being on the verge of losing a woman perceived to be amongst the world's most beautiful—the Roc Nation boss compared it to the time Eric Benét divorced Halle Berry, who's also seen as being a world class beauty.

"You almost went Eric Benét/Let the baddest girl in the world get away/I don't even know what else to say/Nigga, never go Eric Benét/I don't even know what you woulda done/In the future, other niggas playin' football with your son," Hov raps on the No I.D.-produced track.

Now, Benét's clapped back, saying he's still got the baddest lady on the planet. "Hey yo #Jayz! Just so ya know, I got the baddest girl in the world as my wife....like right now! ," Benét tweeted earlier this morning (June 30).

Benét married Manuela Testolini, who is the ex-wife of the late Prince, about six years ago. They've had two daughters together and from the looks of things, they're still going strong.

Check out Benét's tweet below. Peep fans' reaction to 4:44 in our gallery beneathe that.
