Does Beyonce's song "Irreplaceable" empower women?

Or is it misandry? Could it be both?

This question is meant for Gender Studies.

Update:

Isn't it objectifying a man to say he can easily be replaced? Is teaching women to objectify men empowering to them?

    No. It's just a stupid song trying to pump up women's egos (mainly Beyonce's) and degrade men in the process.

    I don't know if it "empowers" women, but it makes them want to dance.

    Beyoncé, like a lot of female "artists", sings a lot of misandric songs, and says a lot of misandric things. Like all of the popular media, mainstream feminism has infected the music industry, as well.

    It's neither. It's about her kicking a guy out of her house after he cheated on her.

    no. it's the truth men seem to neglect. men are as available as women.... so... if you don't want to be special - you don't HAVE to be. NEXT!

    Her songs like "Independent", "Who runs the world", "Bootylicious" (made around 2002 or 2003), "Grown woman", "Surviver"...those are some of the songs she made that empowers women. "Irreplaceable" is a song she made to give women strength after a breakup
