“I belong every place. I belong no place. I belong to myself.” Maya Angelou
Love to you❤
Yes!! Exactly. Spot on comment! 👏
👏🏾👏🏾👏🏾👍🏽
Well said 💯
Maya Angelou was a overrated self hating prostitute for Mexicans
what is that supposed to mean...
As a Texan everyone knows it its about a whole lot of different cultures besides horses and cows.
Nah
I agree sir
So what’s the country lifestyle exactly??? …… white?
@@TheTruthAintInYa Horses and cows and lots of hay I assume lmao
@TheTruthAintInYa always gotta be a race thing. Darius Rucker is a black man and we whitefolks accept, honor, cherish and appreciate him and his hospitality. Darius is an amazing and inspiring artist that doesn't treat the genre like Beyoncé
From the old period: putting on blue jeans and saddle boots doesn't make you a cowboy until you ride and work on a ranch.
You gotta pay your dues to walk the walk. Eminem did.
@@a.michelle9289 What do you mean? What does Eminem have to do with this? What dues did he pay?
@@a.michelle9289 Eminem was a real rapper from the start. He didn't play the role of a rapper and then worm is way into the genre. Beyonce is doing this because she has aged out of R&B, she's seen as a joke by everyone who knows the industry for what it is and she's trying to cash in on Lil Nas X's playbook. It's disgusting
that still don't make you country
@@iamcase1245even Beyonce r&b seem more hip hop and pop/urban base not blues. i like all types of music my favorite are blues music (not r&b) southern rock, country, techno
I'm so glad the guest you had mentioned the Mexican influence on country music
The guest mentioned the 🇲🇽Mexican influence on Cowboy culture, not Country music !
Same!
There are rumors circulating she’s going to sample/interpolate Selena in her album. Hence the “bending & blending of genres” comment.
@@angietorres5113 that would be a wonderful tribute to Selena and her crossover as a Mexican American Artist! I love that so much. ❤️
@@angietorres5113 people forget that Beyonce released Spanish language versions of her singles decades ago
Nothing like hearing a rich successful famous person whine about things being unfair. 🙄
Just like her husband whining that she should have won! New artists cone and go
Its the mindset of the Bt-1000 you can take the rat out of the hood but you cant take the hood out of the rat.
Let’s not forget Beyoncé and Jay Z took a few trips to Epstein’s island.
More like delivering a big FU to people who dissed her way back when.
@@PaisleyessNot true…. Beyonce was a teenager when that shit was going on😂
Rhiannon Giddens, is a folk, bluegrass, country singer from Greensboro NC. I have seen her perform in Greensboro at our folk festival ❤
NC in the house!!
And she's great. Her appearances on Public T.V. on music shows is always good.
Some people think they own everything, and they don’t even know the real history. Imagine thinking you own a genre of music and can dictate who can perform it. SMH.
She sux
Right? And they've been doing that for centuries, it didn't just start with music.
@@Prof.SeverusSnape facts 💯
Look what they said to emenem whey he entered the rap sceen he wasnt welcome because of his skin color. Black hipocrates
@@keithmercier3431 different histories
So Next year JZ will be on stage dissing a country singer..bkus that album not winning ish
does the award come with money??
JZ is a loudmouth repulsive idiot. if he couldn't play the race, what would he do? Do you know the race card is no longer credible the whole thing is just gotten really boring.
She can do whatever music 🎶 that she wants !
Anyone can. Music belongs to everyone. It's all a blend of cultures and none of it would exist without all of the influences and contributions of the past. Black, White, Latino, Asian. And don't forget it.
True story, free country! ❤
@@somebodysomething4242👏👏👏 well said!! ❤
Dawg there's a big difference in country. There's the real shit and then there's the fake shit like Luke combs. The real shit is struggle, ryan upchurch, demon, adam, jelly, they say the truth in their songs vs the other songs where artists don't know shit or.go back on their words like Luke combs and how he sang about being an outlaw and turned to a bitch.
You should clean up your language.
Beyonce (and some others in the comments) are trying to make it sound like she is the First black woman in Country Music, she isn't, currently there is Mickey Guyton, Rissi Palmer, Chapel Hart, just to name a few ... The issue with Beyonce is she even said ... this ISN'T a Country album, it's a BEYONCE album, she is going out of her way to not actually sound country, that is why people aren't welcoming it. Mix that with her trying to walk in like she owns the genre (like she does everything else) She doesn't.
On top of it, the B*LLSH!T she pulled with the REAL QUEEN'S song, "Jolene". Completely disrespectful!
The original song was a story, a beautifully sad, heartfelt plea. But still just a song, a story that Dolly thought up, after her husband, light-heartedly flirted (in front of her) with a bank teller named Jolene and it gave her the idea for the song, she let it flow, and wrote the song. But her song was mainly about the WOMAN, not about herself. But Everything Beyonce does is about herself, as we know.
@kimberly_neville what you wrote is very similar to what I was about to write about "Cowboy Carter" 👍
@@motorbikeray I'm completely over her, and all of this BS. The only reason she reached 1# on the Country music charts, is because she has such a huge fanbase. It's not a true 1#

I hear you. 👍
She will never be a true #1 in country music PERIOD
Callin daddy lessons a “country sounding” song is a felony. Daddy lessons is a country song.
It was intentional, trying not to piss off certain people. It most definitely is a country song.
Exactly, I cringe at that part. They need to stop playing in ppl faces. We are not dumb
She certainly does know what she's doing.And that's why we don't want her fake a** in country.We already have enough fakes let alone her hollywood planted ass

It’s not classical country you can clearly hear the blues and Jazz in the genre
Darius Rucker (Hootie & The Blowfish) was welcomed into Country music several years ago so I’m confused.
So you can't wrap your head around Beyonce being unwelcomed m
@@DarkBrandonForever no, not really. Maybe you can explain?
It’s not about feeling welcomed but the fact that her song just isn’t good. Darius Rucker actually has good songs. Her song doesn’t even sound like a country song and I think she can sing, just isn’t her best song.
He actually was met with alot of adversity when he crossed over, it wasn't open arms even with him.
They just hate black.women! That's all it is!
Beyonce said this ain't a country album..she's making a Beyonce album..period.
*But it IS a country song....*
What difference does it make if the country genre doesnt accept her? The pop genre is where her whole career has been.
@@kaygee1663 I don't think she gives a damn about being accepted..she is just simply stating she did it and that's it. It's that simple.
@@serveriamanning6313Didn't she say she didn't feel welcomed? Hmm?
@@kaygee1663 yep. And she said PHUCK YA'LL HATERS..🤣🤣🤣🤣YA'LL can't stop Beyonce. But carry on.
Stop the hate for a minute you might enjoy all genre's and artist for their art. Everyone can sing what ever they choose no matter, what they have sang in the pass or currently. Let that woman do her Thang and enjoy or don't, but no negativity needed warranted....
Beautiful truth!
Tell that to her and her husband too. Two winey hatefull people. I love the song but lets be real i get why people give her a hard time.
@@serena9543winey? Like 🍇? 😮lololol
Blacks are the only ones allowed to steal other ppls culture
Beyond race country is about being relatible and there is nothing to her about being relatible.I'm almost certain she was created in a jar in a lab decades ago
I’m not a fan of her music but she’s amazing at what she does. She can do any kind of music she wants.. Go girl…
For someone who won 32 Emmys, daaaang, she knows what she's doing!
Grammys
Called sucking dick.. very few women make it without using sexuality.
That's it! Whether people want to accept it or not.👍👍
Most Definitely.
Not album of the year. Which she has not earned. No matter how great you say she is. Not a fan, not a hater. Her profanity and lack of clothing don’t belong in country genre.
BLUES GAVE BIRTH TO COUNTRY AND ROCK AND ROLL.
In the same neighborhood at the same time. It's all American Culture.
Yeah, yeah, and Snoopy was originally a black dog with white spots. Don't y'all get tired of trying to take credit for everything. 🙄
@@Mickeymallory22 Ah man, finally a common sense reply. 👏
By the same group of people...
*Who hurt you?*
This is the equivalent of stepping in a remote rural bar and getting mad when they all stare at you. How unaware can you be 😂
The Grand Opry in Nashville TN won’t welcome her bc they know she’s not a real country artist but also when she tried calling the people there to see if she could perform there they had said bc she’s not a real country singer she didn’t know that in order to be able to perform there you have to be invited by a country artist who has already made their Opry debut there
I think country fans don’t want Beyoncé doing country music because she only started doing now that country is having a resurgence and r’n’b and rap have plateaued. She doing this for money and they can tell
PLEASE go bCk to your own music SHS IS NOT A .ATURAL AND ORETT LYNN AND MIRANDA LAMBERT IS AND DOLLY AND LAINEY THE REAL deal😅😅😅😅😂😅😅😅😅😅😅😅😅😂😂😂
She made a country song in 2016 and some of her 2000s songs have some country influences. They hate her because it's Beyoncé.
New Country isn't country either. It all depends on WHO is doing it. With only the DeFord Bailey and Charlie Pride exceptions there are no other minorities in the Country Music Hall of Fame. Even those with Hispanic backgrounds like artists Freddy Fender and Linda Maria Ronstadt are excluded. They have the credentials with their music contributions, promoting country, and bringing many more fans to that genre. Just be honest and state the industry's ugly truth, it's obvious.
Sing whatever genre you want to sing, but have the decency to make it sound good. DAMN!!!
That song makes me ill, everytime I hear the first note of it.
Swipe swipe swipe!!!
Well IMO Beyoncé can sing any genre she wants. And if there are two lanes, 4 lanes, 8 lanes etc, she can sing in all of them💕
Yea I heard she wants to make country music. Can't wait to hear it
You all need to stop.....her songs sound like all her other songs. Not country.
I agree but ‘country’ music no longer sounds honky tonk.
This.👍
Here is what I truly don’t understand: she’s from Texas! Also, I think people need to really review the history where country originated from. This is why music education is important.
She is a disgusting BLM thug. She isn't from Texas
teach us where did it come from. I think the blacks who were called negros those slaves started country music
teach us where did it come from. I think the blacks who were called negros those slaves started country music
Exactly! Just because she is from Texas is a ridiculous reason to say she can make Country music. It's like saying, well someone was born in New York, they can be a rapper! Or in Oakland! They are from there, so that is enough of a reason.
@@kimberly_neville you are a racist we know white people do not actually like Beyoncé.
K Michelle Paved the way for This road for any black women that came after..Let's just keep it AH Buck..
I grew up in a household where old style country was played along with modern country. In highschool, I also developed a love for folk, rock, pop, and more... I have heard all kinds. I LOVE this song!! I think that a lot of peoples' issue is the same sour grapes they get when anyone who's already rich and famous tries something new. "How dare they?!" Good grief.... It might surprise many people to know that there are many rockers who list country singers as some of their biggest musical influences, and vice versa. Why can't we all just enjoy good music, period? If it sounds good and feels good, why does it matter who's singing it?? Alice Cooper and Glenn Campbell were the best of friends for decades. If they could get along despite being at pretty much opposite ends of the modern musical industry, Beyonce can sing country if she wants to!
Who is cowboy carter wheres he ?
Cowboy Curtis brother from pee wee Herman
Real country folks don’t care what makes you country. She can sing whatever genre she wants to. Politics don’t belong in music it’s art and has nothing to do with anything but art and music and musically talented artists expressing thier talent. Music should bring us together instead of dividing us. Miranda Lambert one of country’s biggest stars cited Beyoncé as am imfluence . I think all artists influence each other. Her role in Star records was a great historical musical influence to all artists and how not to let fame drive you crazy. Keep sanging and we’ll keep listening!
Country music is for politics. Are you serious? Just because they only sing about beer and trucks now doesn’t mean the roots of the genre aren’t in activism.
@@sandrajones651 I’m going to disagree. Are you a musician? No because I am and any musician worth thier salt will agree that politics has nothing to do with music. We play what we feel and if politicial statements are made in any genre of music it’s because musicians exercise our freedom of speech however not evety piece of music is about politics. Some times a song is just a song and just an expression of our freedom of soeech. Are you serious trying to scold me for exercising my freedom of speech? Because I don’t condone your critical tone trying to hush me up.
@@sandrajones651 I didn’t say the artists aren’t for it, I’m just saying not every song is about it.
Amen to this statement
Real country folks do care about what makes you country. If they didnt then she wouldn't be feeling that way.
Secondly what does music have to do with singing in this context. You can make a country tune, that doesn't mean that you can sing a country song let alone make a good one.
And cool your a musician, make yourself useful and go join an orchestra or something.
Out here making tunes with no vocals. Sheesh! 😂
I just drove from South Florida to Nashville this past weekend, and I heard Texas Hold ‘Em on the old school radio played by a “new country” station. It’s the only song I would have recognized because I’m not normally a Beyoncé fan, and I’d only watched her THE video when the song first came out, but it’s a tough fit to cross over and expect to be welcomed with open arms for any music artist. How popular has Dolly Parton been with her foray into rock? In her case she’s done famous rock covers that were already known and popular and it hasn’t been an easy sell. My best to Beyoncé. I love to sing to her song “Halo” that she did at the children’s hospital. She is an earth angel! 💕
There's no official music video yet. You probably saw fan made edit lol
Love your post! So true! That Halo video of Beyonce in the hospital is really special. Her songs and Halo especially, has gotten me through some tough times. She brings so much strength and inspiration to many women who have endured feeling UnWelcome for an entire Lifetime - and how to move forward in these kinds of atmospheres. I love her and know she Can and Will Succeed at whatever Beyonce so chooses to do ! Brave Onwards Beyonce 🎶💪🙏💝 ~
@@AngeBiampandou-- Though there isn't an official music video, Beyonce's UA-cam channel has released 2 official videos tied to Texas Hold 'Em-- a lyric video and a visualizer video.
Go and interview all of the country singers that walked out of the CMA awards ceremony when she performed…
Lmfao i wanna see
She's culturally misappropriating a culture that is alien to her. Stick to gyrating your hips and twerking your lips.
Bunch of snowflakes
@@kacodemonio blue you prob are a snowflake
What’s interesting is If these two songs were released by her without her stardom from her other Genres she made her name in they wouldn’t be hits or billboard chart leaders. She Is a mega star and has just “borrowing” a culture/genre of music for her own success (same as white people trying to be rappers) . She is smart she knows country is like the #1 streamed music genre these days and she is riding the wave. I barely consider morgan wallen to be country and this is miles from that.
Country is not the most #1 streamed genre nowadays...
I understand her pain I worked at a community college by the name of Crafton Hills College and I was judged and I hated it, so I understand what she
She doing what the late charlie pride did he was welcome in country music 3:46
Charlie Pride started & finished 100% country music super star. His sound was always country.
But Charlie Pride wasn't a pop star going out of his way to look like a revolutionary. He was just country music.
He was a white,black man that's why he was welcomed read between the lines
❤
No comparison, none at all
It’s sad cause I was a Bey fan but after her husband stood up at the Grammys and chucked a racist victim tantrum for the world to see I can’t watch or listen to her new songs…. What was it your husband was saying to Taylor stick to your own genre… Sad I would call myself a Bey fan over a Taylor but Taylor a real women she’s classy and she doesn’t need to insult people to get fans
Of course Taylor wouldn't have too because of white privilege
@@lindsaym6607 white privilege I’m in Australia darling the only thing we have over here is black privilege… so hold up with your racist remarks cause I’m still awaiting on the world to acknowledge the truth about my ancestors and torture and slavery they endured…
@@lindsaym6607 ?? Why do you gotta be a stereotypical African American and race bait for a reaction! Just leave country music and there fans alone. They ain't do nothing to hurt you!

@lindsaym6607 well beyonce didn't say that but her ghetto trash husband did. Why are we listening to a guy who stabbed a producer back in 2001??? White privileged you say? More like fan privileged for bey because her fans ignore all her musical art and performances she has done throughout her career.
The horses hair is her wig. Lol
Everyone should experience the Houston Livestock Show and Rodeo.
Alright! Guys, coming up next will be the punk rock/ heavy metal album. So all you lovers of this music, get ready to welcome her with open arms! She will be the next punk rock/heavy metal artist.
She might have to start smoking for that one! Get some rasp in there. 😂
That's a good point. Most of the post makes it about race, when it's about an artist elitist who has issues being humble coming in and saying they want to do a country album. Yes there are racist gate keepers for sure, but I'm willing to bet it's the former.
She's literally from Texas, born and raised. She's a country girl. Y'all just look for any reason to pretend it's not racism.
I’m sure hip hop radio stations would love Kacey Musgraves’ rap album
Hip hop? You are so painfully white.
I’d love any Kacey videos. Period.
True musicians welcome her. But few lame and outdated artists are just disappointment to their country.
The video for her country song was just of her posing, not singing. She is a talented artist that deserved to have been show cased with something better than no singing, and just sexy clothes. I hope the live performance of that song will be done better.
Did Beyonce care about the other black country artist who have worked harder than her and faced more racism than she has. FO Beyoncé.
You know she didn’t! 😂
You better tell that truth!
Is that why she's putting black country artists on her new album
She did. That's why she brought one of them (Linda Martell) on her record.
Never seen anyone at a rodeo dressed like that. Imagine riding in something like that? This is not country.
😂😂😂😂dive bar stripper
Even Jean's, cowboy boots and a t-shirt is more Country that what she wore lol
Nomatter what kind of song that she sings it Always makes a hit
Most music today don't sound alot like when it first started. Music evolves & grows. People continue to attempt to hold on to what's familiar. Guess what? The world doesn't work that way. Everything changes. You're either a pioneer or a follower. Everything else gets left behind.
Would love to see a country singer try to venture into R&B/Hip Hop music to see how they would be received and welcomed by those artists.
Jelly roll got his first country music award this year even though he is country rap artist and faith evens and Kelly Clarkson can sing r and b music like no body business 1:54
T Swizzle did it

@@littlelizardpsycho5178 Never heard of Jelly Roll ? Lol i hate Country Music and still know Jelly Roll. He's been all over the news, between testifying on capital hill to releasing Fast Car again and performing with Tracy Chapman at Grammy's !
T pain did his redition of Tennessee whiskey and a black male rapper also did a country song and hooty from hooty and the blow fish cross over to country from rock music and the late Charlie pride first black American to sing country music
Her saying she’s country star and making it number one on the charts reminds me of a man joining the woman swimming team and coming in first place in an all woman sport.
Not having my first trap album that I wrote accepted for distribution by gatekeepers in the industry was devastating for me. I cannot understand why nobody wanted to listen to it, even though it had some Christian themes in the songs, it was easily the most spectacular trap album written by a writer of mixed ethnicity. It was absolutely shocking why this amazing album was not popularized due to the gatekeeping in hip hop/trap music and the fact that many of my lyrics rapped about Jesus, God, stopping crime, and promoting positive cultural themes to American Youth! I still believe it is one of the best trap albums ever written, but due to gatekeepers in the industry not liking my positive message, religion, or ethnicity, the album never made it. It also had trilingual lyrics and could have been marketed internationally! To this day I am shocked and insulted beyond words that I did not have the #1 trap/hip hop album in the world. It is devastating but I will keep writing and trying! God bless everyone!
This topic is not smart. I viewed the video from the attention about it and heard her talk about bitches. Why would someone talk about bitches is a country song and expect a warm welcome? That is after all the bare butt blatancy that is also not country music. She can sample country style as R&B or hip hop! That does not mean that as a very first endeavor showing interest in country music from her own release that she now defines country music talks about bitches as puts bare butts in people's viewpoints. It's so unfortunate what has happened to media since digitization, but let's remember that we can think and discern if not analyze.
Amen, she has an agenda as to why she's doing this which I already made a comment on, bit long story short this is not country, and she continues to sexualize everything she does.
It cool for Taylor Swift ( who's from PA) to sing country, but not Yoncé?
They don't want to🙄 have that conversation
Seriously. Pop country sucks anyway. They should be thanking Beyonce for getting more people interested in the genre.
Taylor Swifts dad is a country singer...
I think the country genre has rejected Taylor now.
@@ericcollins349 no, he’s not even a singer lol
It's okay not to feel the ❤
What does she want ppl to bend the knee? if you music resonates with ppl it results in sales otherwise go back to gyrating your hips and twerking your lips and your hubbie talking gangster and pimping the minds and pockets of useful idiots.
Love Beyonce ❤
She sux so badly
My goodness:
She'll NEVER get a Grammy for Record or Album of the Year this way, and she'll NEVER be Mrs.Cartwright, whitefolks will see to that🤣
Stirring Controversy is not the way. You cannot force people to accept you.
She can't keep up with Adele OR Taylor Swift, I'm telling you right now. They'll always win Album or Record of the Year over Beyonce. That's how whitefolks got it hooked up.
She should concentrate on making THE BEST music she can, and let her work speak for her.
Happy Easter everybody 🙏😇
Df is you talking about sthu
Do yk how racist you sound😂😂 Taylor swift and Adele looks up to Beyoncé??? Didn’t you see Adele crying and thanking Beyoncé for the songs she made 🤣🤣🤣 y’all speak on things you don’t know just sit back and enjoy the ride remember what you said on her not winning a Grammy 😁 I bet you she win

True! Which is why I don't understand all the fuss brought up in the Good Morning America video clip.
Her album is not country but that one single is a country song
She might consider wearing a bit more clothes. It not always about being more than half naked. Welcome to country values.
Exactly country wears clothing does not expose upper anatomy
"cut-off jeans" "painted on jeans" are such a staple for men in country to sing about. Those values?
No, we're not going to be doing that. We're not going to tell grown people how to dress and we're not going to shame people for being comfortable in their skin. Nope! It is 2024! It is too late in our year to be this goddamn conservative about the human body And normal human sexuality. No!
"Honky tonk badonadonk" ring a bell? Who cares?? Country values? Yeah the value of racism and trying to keep Black artists out of the genre.

Amazing Topics
barriers oh please !
The song is nice, but this is just like a DRAG PERFORMANCE and a ANOTHER COSTUME for her. She is not rooted to country music, THAT'S WHY the country music community isn't welcoming her. SHE WILL MOVE ON FROM COUNTRY, just like she already moved on from dance/house music like she did on her last album. And she'll just go back to R&B. This is just a one-album thing for her, it's all gimmicks, that's why they don't embrace her. Just like I'm sure the rap community wouldn't embrace Justin Bieber or Ariana Grande if they suddenly dropped a surprise album and started rapping all over it calling it "hip hop".
The gatekeeping needs to stop. Who are yall to tell her she can't sing country music? No one "owns" country music. Its funny people welcomed Taylor Swift who was from Pennsylvania with open arms in country music but because its Beyonce, a women born and raised in Texas, all of a sudden its a problem? Cut the crap!
Brush Taylor Swift is still honored as a country star even when she's released multiple albums outside that genre
As the most famous person to ever walk earth, Michael Jackson, performed on national tv as a cowboy but he still was not welcomed by white country music people.
So Beyonce shouldn't be surprised. Country music people treasure their country music way of singing the genre. they are protecting it.
It may have started with black people just like rock and roll but white people have made it their own.🤷♀️and they don't want to let it go. They're preserving it. Maybe i agree with them.
Many things have been poluted in modern society
I loved the interview piece with Kyle Denis…informative and highlighting the history of music and all contributions across the board in regard to country music. Folk music, the story-telling, songs sung and hummed by slaves…rich history that I hope we can continue to highlight, learn from and pass on to each new generation. The blues …the list goes on. Our artists are getting older and I would encourage to go out and attend their concerts and those festivals that highlight their music.
she needs to get rid of her marketing team. They made her look like a heax in the video and promo which is great for rap/rock or pop, but people into get into country to get away from that headache. Her songs are great but she presented the wrong image for the market.
Its not about her skin color, it's about her character.
No, it’s about misogyny and racism. Stop lying.
......of stupidity
beauty puppets cant do country
Exactly her character is shit, she miximg ratchetness with country, coming all half naked and all sex appeal bullshit
Grasping at straws.
Bro any song that has “Lexus” and is labeled country is an absolute joke and a mockery of country
Period
The most accurate definition of country music is music that country people feel, make, or just listen to. Beyonce is an R&B / pop singer from the city and made an album of R&B & Pop songs then labeled it country music so go figure as to why she isn’t accepted in country music.
If she genuinely was making an album because she loved country music she’d be welcome, but my inclination is that she doesn’t. I’m not sure why she is making this album, but it’s not for her love and devotion and respect for country music.
She literally talks about her love of country over the years and her mom talks about how country music surrounded them as children. She went to the rodeos as a child and teen. Shes from Texas, her mom family from Tennessee, and her dad from Alabama. She is country as hell.
Queen Beyonce you are awesome i love the song andso many others let hater hate just jealous live your life baby girl God bless you and your family much ❤️ ❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤I❤❤❤
before all you country fans complain..You all are forgetting about Johnny Cash...one of the greatest singers of all time. Not is he only loved by country fans but everyone loves Johnny cash, you have people in the hip-hop field who love Johnny cash and grew up with his music... He was more than just Country he was in almost every genre of music. I'm a huge Johnny Cash fan and in the beginning he went against the traditional country "roots" by wearing all black (which was not traditional in country music back then), also him and Waylon Jennings were considered "outlaws" because they combined rock with country...Johnny Cash's latest song "God's gonna shut you down" has been described as "techno/Country"
K Michelle has been trying to sing country and was not welcomed way before the few black females who have made it, she even won a scholarship in yodeling. It's so sad that color is still an issue in 2024. Thank you Beyonce for kicking the door in for so many more ladies of color❤
It's just an R&B song nothing about its country honestly it sounds and looks more like a Super Bowl ad trying to play the stereotypes I love the Beyonce lovers who have never listened to a ounce of country music in their life gaslighting people into saying it's a country song Just because they started listening for more than a week Dean Martin when he did his first country song was more of a country song than this actual country comes to mind are people like Dolly Parton Reba McEntire Big Al Downing Alan Jackson Johnny Cash Willie Nelson
A lot of black people grew up on country music. I grew up listening to country music and that's where it originated from black Blues and country is where country music comes from. But *this Beyonce woman is phony and just copying other artists* who said that they were gonna do a country album. It’s just about money to her she's not authentic at all and people can see that. Maybe her fans probably don't listen to country music but black people do and a lot of black folks are from the country and our very country!
sounds nothing like r&b. Maybe don't speak on music since you clearly don't know enough to be speaking on it
@@jny5179 please take your own advice
@TheBrownIsland I agree I've listened to Country all my life and I've listened to R&B all my life and because I don't think this is a country song I'm getting gasoline into it at best it's a Super Bowl ad if she wants to make a country song maybe talk to the legends that are still alive just because she was born in Texas doesn't mean anything she spent most of her life and work life out of Texas
Nothing country about it. The whole album was build straight from stereotypes.
Wooo❤
Cringe asf
This is nothing new for pop stars to experiment with different music genres and face music fascists ala Garth Brooks as Chris Gaines.
Fans can be like cult members while artists usually more open mined unless they are purists. If you research music producers and writers you'll find lots of crossovers.
My opinion is that country artist are afraid of the success she could possibly have in that genre. When you look at her career, people know her regardless. Whether you listen to her music or not. I think they are fearful of the success she could have and we all now that fear brings out the worst in people.
who cares how she feels...get over it
But she;s Beyond Sayyyyy and demands fellow artists of other genre's to bend the knee despite her culturally misappropriating other cultures music - its the mindset of a BT-1000 hypocritical hoodrat masonic lucierfarian special handshaking hoodious rattious.
A song speaks for itself ..people either feel it ..or they don’t…whatever era genre ..or age
❤❤❤
She just got into country music.
Give it some time and allow people to see that she's not dabbling.
That she takes the music seriously.
Five years in the making of the album deserves respect. That is getting real with the song
I hate country music - largely because of its innate biases and over-simplistic music - but love Beyonce for pushing the limits like this. I’m sure she angered some folks. I say good!!

Country Music Forever!!!! #JohnnyCash!!!
@@mikefeltner4216modern country music sadly doesn’t sound as good as Johnny Cash 😢
When I saw her performance of "Daddy Lessons" on the CMA's I remember thinking, "this performance is so good but I don't think the audience is feeling it." Sadly, I was right. There is too much racism and gatekeeping in country music. The country community needs to take a page from the rap community and be inclusive.
It's not about race. People just don't believe she's into country. Plenty of black and other races in country.
It is about race when a white person yells out “Get that black b*itch off the stage.” Allegedly that happened. The CMA’s also took down the performance due to racist trolling (but then put it back due to backlash). Not everything is about race but this my friend is. It’s disgusting.
@@geoalphaIt is about race. Her performance was TAKEN DOWN after backlash and racists comments
@nopo8011 as a black man I can assure you it's not about race. My reaction would be the same if it was Justin Timberlake or Pink making a country album. Maybe judge people by the content of their character and not the color of their skin?
@@geoalpha Then explain the racists comments after the performance?
I love country music. I love Dolly Parton's "Jolene". Beyonce gives her version of "Jolene" a different spin, but still a good song. She made a good collection of music.
This is all just silliness. The whole scenario was planned to create the wide range of emotions that it has created in people. It is so obvious.
So if it’s not a country album, why does she feel entitled to be welcomed into country music? She’s still singing other people’s lyrics. That’s not being a country artist. You need to have talent. Again, that’s not Beyonce. Someone steered her into doing something bad. This doesn’t fit her at all. When she gets more talented, then she’ll get welcomed. Get better at what you’re currently doing before making a huge business move. Facts.
No facts, all BS and haterade. Don’t like it? Don’t listen to it. Jog on, Karen
😂 your a joke
I like Texas Hold 'em, and I have nothing against Beyonce. But she'd be a bit more welcome in country music if she'd put some pants on.
Pants or trousers?
@@voice.of.reason I see Sirius Radio on TV has changed the graphics with Texas Hold 'Em from Beyonce wearing just a white heart between her legs to white pants, and she's on a white horse carrying the Stars and Stripes..Now, instead of looking like a stripper, she looks like a patriot. Unfortunately, looks can be deceiving.
Of course Beyoncé can sing any music she wants to do. Music is the international language of the world. She has stormed up the country & western charts at breakneck speed. She’s defiantly the fastest blond wig in the west.
I wonder if anyone would be interested in Darius Rucker's experience as a Black Country artist.
The lone ranger was Black Bass Reeves so country was always in the mix, no one's owns music
The lone ranger rode a horse called Silver and had a companion called Tonto. Black Bass Reeves was a ranger, but he wasn't a lone ranger because he was part of a group of Rangers.He may have worked alone, but so did every other ranger.
Get your facts straight.
@@AwesomeBabyBoomerThe character of the Lone Ranger was mostly based on Bass Reeves, who was one of the first African American US Marshals and the first to cover west of the Mississippi River, arresting over 4,000 people and serving over 35 years in what was known as Indian Territory, hence the “Lone Ranger. “It’s regarded as a part of the US Marshals history, and it was highlighted in their centennial celebration for the US Marshals Service back in the 1980s. I mean, if we’re gonna talk facts and all, let’s get it all straight.
ETA: Correction, it was their Bicentennial Celebration in 1989. Also, Bass actually had a white horse and an Comanche interpreter (whom the character “Tonto” is based on).
Just laying the facts on extra thick for ya 😂😂.
@YabbaDabbaDooooo You don't need to lay facts on me.I've read all about the gentleman as I am a native Texan, so I like my Texas history. He was a great Ranger, and just so you know, in the old West, many of the greatest cowboys that were ever there were black.
So again, you don't need tell me history because i've already read it.
Thank you anyhow.
Isn't music beautiful, when it's beautiful , no who the artist. Can't we embrace this for peace sake?
The same thing happened to Janice Joplin 50 plus years ago! The question is, why do you want to belong with these Good Old MFers? Do you realize what they represent? Good luck fighting this one… you’re on your own!
Let her break that door down to welcome others, Would love K michelle to release her album and collab with Dolly parton. Very much needed.
Why are u surprised they didn’t accept u for a Grammy so why would u think they would accept u now
She is not doing it for a Grammy, she is doing it to challenge herself. She doesn't care if she gets Grammys, of course its nice when she gets awards, but that is not her focus.
She needs to be specific on who made her unwelcome instead of implying every country star was against her
She’s a victim. America been so bad to get.
I've never seen, or even HEARD of black legends in the CMT network. Never though there was a such thing as.
Country and rock music get paid more on unit cells than soul or hip-hop. Artist. Of any genre need to get paid the same amount for units sold.
That’s the kind of stuff I’m talking about, I hate when people don’t welcome me into groups and music I totally understand Beyonce
I love Reba McEntire and i'm 61 & Black. They need to leave Beyonce alone an get on with 2024.
Beyoncé needs to quit being a whiny, played out bitch.
And she is a Beautiful person inside and out
😂😂😂😂😂
She’s literally doing this because a couple country songs became popular and she can make bank on it
The songs are doing "well" because its Beyonce....not because its actually quality songs....
I had gave some thought when I heard about her doing country and I thought to myself
She's gotta clean up her image
She sexualizes herself probably more than any Pop Star ever has. She leaves like nothing to the imagination. Unless there's some pop star that did Playboy once. That'd be the only one who could maybe compete with her in that department. Mariah Carey could probably compete as well.
Country music don't work that way. Those women tend to be modest
The exact opposite of what Beyonce does with her image
Are you kidding me!? I'm sitting here thinking of many female country singers who are very, very fem and sexy. Back in the day, they did dress like dowagers, but Dolly Pardon changed that.
lol
I've been to many places where I haven't felt welcome. Happens to everyone.
Lord,
I knew this exact conversation would be her 1st take on being accepted.She has always been very predictable
Beyonce is going for the album of the year award that she didn't receive on the other side. Her country music is terrible her dress code is tacky, and always out of touch, she
isn't the 1st black woman in the country music industry
she just got the money and close connections to push her ahead of so many others that's been around for a long time.
Terrible representation of country music
👎 👎 👎 👎 👎
No matter what great singer she's singing with on her album to get the boost in the CMA, she sounds terrible
a lot of people are followers, and it has nothing to do with her roots being from Texas, so it supposed automatically makes sense that she would sing country music. Please, Beyonce hasn't had a hit single or album in years, nor does her clothing line or perfume hit on desirable enough to wear.
Yep! She’s like, I’m going to get album of the year one way or the other! 😂😂
This!!!
