Welcome to the Beyonce rodeo: New country album drops to praise

A rowdy, wide-ranging homage to Beyonce's southern heritage, the 27-track second act to her 'Renaissance' trilogy is a genre-bending triumph that vaunts Black country culture. — AFP pic, Beyonce’s rhinestone-studded, history-rich honky tonk of an album that’s rising in the charts after yesterday’s hotly anticipated release.

She ushers listeners through country’s evolution from African American spirituals and fiddle tunes to its pioneering women, like collaborator Linda Martell, and a vision of its future. She also drafted a mix of youthful stars — Miley Cyrus, Post Malone and Tanner Adell included — and old guard icons for her revue, including none other than Willie Nelson and Dolly Parton.

The elders appear on the album in the form of radio hosts of a fictional broadcast, with Nelson telling listeners: “Now for this next tune, I want y’all to sit back, inhale and go to the good place your mind likes to wander off to.”, drawing parallels between her own original tale of a lover fearing betrayal with Beyonce’s personalized version that calls back to her 2016 track“Hey, Miss Honey B, it’s Dolly P,” croons Parton in her interlude.
