Sabrina Claudio on how 'PLASTIC OFF THE SOFA', previously titled 'I Love It', came to Beyoncé
"Syd DM’d me about a year before the album came out, saying she heard that Beyoncé cut the record. I was at my parents’ house and we started screaming. I was like, “Wait, I don’t know if this is real.” I didn’t hear about it for a year and our team got a call about a month before the album. I went into her Parkwood Studios and her A&R played me her version. I was shook. Nothing’s confirmed until it comes out. A day or two before the album is released, the track list was leaked and I didn’t see my song on there. I’m like, “I knew it!” Truth is, she changed the title. I named it something like “I Love It.” I thought I didn’t get the placement. The credits dropped the day before the album and I saw my name. Then the whole Grammys thing happened and the song got nominated on its own."
