You know Dolly is not going to say anything negative about nobody
But she could have said nothing if it's not sincere and truly how she feels.
That’s why she’s aging well, and still a legend
Maybe more people ought to be like Dolly and our world wouldn't be so messed up.
@eternalsmarvel2889 You know that old saying. If you can't say anything nice , Don't say anything. Mind your business.
Of course not she's trying out rock and roll now. Redoing songs by Mick Jagger.
Dolly. What a true southern polite sweetheart of a woman.
No she ain't she a damn thief and liar
The Woke went after Dolly about 10 yrs ago, she had to change some things at her Restaurant Stampede, she's not going to stir the Woke pot again! She's my Favorite Country Singer of all times, she's truly Authentic ,No one will take her History away!
She didn’t just say nothing negative
She said she wants Beyoncé to cover Jolene
That’s a full throated endorsement!!!
Lol no she ain't she's a lying thief
......who speaks truths!
I already knew what Dolly would say, she's ALWAYS been a class act and one of the best things for country music.
New Kids on the Block, Eminem, Robin Thicke, Kid Rock, Justin Timberlake, Sam Smith.... Traditional Soul, HipHop/R&B fans didn't ask for them, but we got them anyway.
And C&W fans didn't have a problem with it, because it wasn't their problem. But now that C&W fans have a problem, well.......
If dolly says okay then its okay cause...
and we KNOW why that is, right?
Girl the list goes on . Talk about the nerve them folks have.
Dolly herself has been putting out rock music. And i love it. What's the difference? Musicians have been swapping genres for a song or album for decades. Sometimes permanently. We live in a free country where people have a right to do that. Listeners also have a right to listen and enjoy it or not.
Amen
Preach
The difference is that "they" think it's fine for others to do it, just not black folks. Forget the fact that we helped pioneer the genre😅
The difference is Beyonce is Black American and along with all the other Black country singers who weren’t allowed access into what we originally created. Them folks just keep lying denying and omitting American history. But truth will be told.
THANK YOU!
Donna Summer, who, when she was the Queen of Disco, made her own history as the first African-American woman to co-write a No. 1 country single in 1980 with “Starting Over Again,” a tune that the late legend wrote with her widower Bruce Sudano for none other than Dolly Parton.
and has absolutely nothing to do with beyonce... but then, country music has nothing to do with country music either. so, guess it does fit... totally worthless and who cares?
That's an awesome fact that I never knew about the great Donna Summer. Thanks!!
Yeah cool fact
Just when I thought I was too old to learn anything new, I read your comment, and find out that Donna Summer was born in Africa. That's Amazing!
@@1980bwc Oh, cool!!
DONNA SUMMER was the first African American woman to write a country #1 HIT SONG in 1981 STARTING OVER for DOLLY PARTON ! AND a TOP #20 IN 96 for REBA MCENTIRE .
Donna Summer was great, to say the least. I fell out with Beyonce when she got a police escort to and from a Super Bowl game to sing an anti-police song. Her Texas Hold Em song had no fiddle or steel guitar music in it just like that ya hoo crap they call Country Music today. Plus, she dresses like a Basin Street hooker.
Beyoncé is from Houston Texas. I don’t understand why people are hating. I love the song. If you don’t like it don’t listen to it
Dolly says nothing negative about anything. It keeps her safe and untouchable.
Or it could be an example of her being kind. We all could learn from such lessons of kindness.
Ask anyone about Dolly from her hometown or who has worked with her.. she's just a good person.
She didn’t just say nothing negative
She said she wants Beyoncé to cover Jolene
That’s a full throated endorsement of how much she loves Beyoncé !
She will always be untouchable, because she’s loved by all . She has the biggest heart .
Im not a fan of Beyonce but she can do whatever music she wants. I didn't see no one fussing when Whitney Houston sang Dolly's song 'I will always love you' and made it her own. So Beyonce is doing the same thing.
Whitney's version of Dolly's song was never called country. It was not country. Are you trying to make this about race? It is not. It is all about music.
Thats because Whitneys version was a great version & she wasn't to big for her boots, Beyonce ruined jolen, it wasn't good at all, she should of dipped her toe in slowly & started with texas hold em & left jolen well alone, texas hold em is a good song
@@jkay8320no shade wasn't nobody listening to no Jolene but 20% of America. Just like nobody was listening to I will always love you until a SISTA sung it so girl . Stay mad . You always will ,and you always have.
@@IdressVinay-wr3eh well I'm from England and we love Jolene, don't get me wrong it's not one of dollys best song but still a good song, the 'I will always love u' song I do prefer Whitney's version and that had nothing to do with her being a sista, it was a great album as a little girl in the 90s, she had a great vocal range , I think the problem is Whitney never tried to come out as country , she just sang the song & imo improved it , where as Beyonce came out as country and again imo ruined it , I'm not a fan of Beyonce as a solo artist, the girl band destinys child I liked, she should of just came out with Texas hold em without saying she's going country and I think it would of gone down alot better
@@plchackerNashville is always about race when it comes to country music 🎶.
John Schneider is about country as a quiche.
Laughable, that he is even quoted, but of course maybe they pick an idiot. Does he really feel threatened by Beyonce? What a wuss. Yeah, real country of him...
He lied to get the part on Dukes of Hazzard and said he was from the south but he’s from upstate New York
However, the same can be said about Beyonce , nothing country about her .
@@Randy-1967yet she’s from houston Texas the Deep South 🤔
@@Randy-1967 but she is from Houston Texas!
I'm an old country fan from way back and I love it. Beyonce keep em comin,
What kind of a person tells an artist what they can paint, sing, or how they should dance, write, or act? Beyonce is a brilliant artist and we are blessed to experience her brilliance!!
You are about as non knowledgeable as it comes, don’t say the word blessed with demonic practices
I think it’s great that she loves Country enough to add to its history. Why is everyone acting like it’s an exclusive “Country Club” that can’t include anyone who can do it well.
Texas Hold ‘em is a terrific, toe-tappin’, 2-steppin’, fun song that already has line dancers and everyone else singing it and twirling around the floor.
Yep! It makes this old lady want to get up and dance!
love it dance 🕺 💃 😍
Because it is not country. The first eight bars are old time banjo, beyond that the instrumentation is all wrong. Not only that, but flinging a bunch of popular country buzz phrases, with no real connection, or actual point is not how true country songs are written. Most every country song ever written has a point. Many tell a story. Some just focus on a particular emotion or event. But they all have a point. Further still country is seldom vulgar. This is rap/hip-hop in disguise. A very thin disguise at that.
This is clearly a dance tune. Nothing wrong with that. It is not bad, just not country.
It would be like adding actual real instrumentation (you know people playing real instruments like guitars, keyboard, horns, strings etc) and harmonies to RAP. That would never be allowed. And if it is not littered with MF this and that, and bitch hoe it will not be considered good rap.
Nobody is saying she should not be allowed to produce whatever she wants. Just do not call it something it is not. That is really hard for some people to understand. Maybe they don't listen to the lyrics and instrumentation. Most are not country fans to begin with, so transforming it to something they like seems acceptable to them.
Texas Hold ‘Em is not a 2-stepping song. It’s toe-tapping for sure, fun and catchy. It’s just not a country song.
@@courtneyr6645 funny you sound like the people who said in the 40's,50's,etc " Not country music"is what you think as "country" like Johnny cash,Waylon Jennings,Willie Nelson,Hank Williams,Bob Wills,etc which was scene as Not country and "a disgrace" LOL All that C&W music all stems from blues &Jazz which all stemmed from Black entertainers. Problem I see is the white community I hear complaining are all saying "they" which obviously is stating that C&W music is "whites Only" while sometimes outright stealing & or profiting off the black artist who either wrote,influenced,performed many hits & never getting proper respect for the huge contribution black,native,hispanic,etc people have made in C&W music. So YES it is country music by it's own definition as defined as (NOUN) a form of popular music originating in the rural southern US,popular vocal music characterized by simple harmonies accompaniment by stringed instruments,repeated choruses,and often narrative lyrics. Her songs so far follow that definition.
Who has a meltdown when Madonna or Cher go half naked? Who has a meltdown when Dolly makes a rock album? I've never been a fan of Beyonce but this country song along with her new look is HOT!
It’s not supposed to be sexual it’s supposed to be pleasing to the ears not the eyes
Haters got to hate. At least not all artists try to make their names by hating. It says more about them than what they are complaining about.
It's all satanic symbology moloch worship. She and JZ are owned by the dark side it's well known by most. This song gets country fans to participate in Satan worship.
I have always liked country music, but as a Black woman, I was considered "weird" for liking it. So, if Beyonce can make this genre of music popular so any race, including Black people like me, aren't considered weird for listening, so be it. I actually like the other song better, but this one is good, too. People need to realize that ANY type of music can be sung by anyone because it's UNIVERSAL. PERIOD. Can't wait to hear the full album. And as for Ms. PARTON? BRAVO to you for sharing your opinion based on what country music is supposed to be: a story with good music!!
Darius Rucker! Heyyyyy momma Rock me like wagon wheel. 🎵🎶🎶🎶🎶
You are so right AngelaKHarrell! I love it too! There are a whole lot of people of all races in Texas who share your opinion!
❤😊 Well said, Angela Harrel.
Queen Esther: The true origins of country music
Music is for everyone, and I’m glad you enjoy country music as well! Beyoncé is from Houston, and her mother is Creole. There is no way that she didn’t have exposure to country music as a kid.
The history of country music can trace its roots to African American folk-music, blues, creole, bluegrass, and Appalachian music. It also has influences from Tejano music and other music too depending on the region the artist comes from.
It’s history is that of a blue collar working person, and some people seem to have forgotten that.
If Beyoncé can bring more people into country and give it the revival it desperately needs, I’m 100% behind it. She has a great voice and the song is a fun and catchy tune.
Is it your “traditional” song? I’d say that country music isn’t of one tradition, but of many. Personally I’m not a fan of the modern “bro-country,” but to each their own.
Dolly is a genuine sweet soul ! ❤
Music is universal, that ONE thing in life that brings us together, that we can share! I’m so thankful my parents were open books when it came to us experiencing all genres of music. No we are not going to gravitate to all music, but we don’t have to be mean, just don’t listen to it. One thing I’ve found is, as we grow older our taste matures, we mellow out! But one thing for sure is, everyone loves a song that makes you want to dance, be you 5, or 105, your soul can’t help but be happy!
Come on people we can do better as humans, It’s not that hard…❤❤❤
Hallelujah!! And Amen!! 🙌🏼🙌🏼 💖
And Texas Hold Em makes you want to sing and dance and I also love 16 Carriages, it’s a beautiful song.
It's all satanic symbology moloch worship. She and JZ are owned by the dark side it's well known by most. This song gets country fans to participate in Satan worship.
Look, this isn't like someone whose career is going south and suddenly they think "Hey I know I'll go Country", If everyone would stop and just think for a second, then maybe they would realize that by Beyonce doing a Country Album, she is bringing a whole new audience to the genre, AND maybe while there, this new audience will not only listen to the stars of today, but also the Greats of Country Music. Beyonce is putting out an album, if you like the music, listen to her, if you don't, change the channel. It's that simple.
Her music isn't country, and neither is her audience.
@@Randy-1967you don't know that. Country is not just tractors and straw between your teeth. Many accepted artists are multimillions.
Country Music went off rails years ago. It now far from The Real Country
@@PhilipMarcYT I remember when country musicians didn't like drums in country music let alone an electric guitar.
There are some good artist.
Not sure what that means but country music started with black artists just like rock & roll, blues and jazz!! Nothing in art is dominant and owned by anyone. We all are part of music and that’s what makes it beautiful for EVERYONE!!
@@DrGMac95Not sure what that means but country music went off the rails years ago.
@@PhilipMarcYT Oh yeah, the man who wrote about a boy named Sue, who was a drug addict and cover Nine Inch Nails' "Hurt" is just rolling over in his grave. GTFO with that stupid ass horse crap.
I love Texas Hold’em and wish her well on her country album!
As a country music listener, I am thrilled.
@@PhilipMarcYT lol, because no country song has ever had a curse word in it, sheesh.
What makes y’all so angst about this? Damn.@@whitakerjennifer9542
You need to find something to do.@@PhilipMarcYT
@@whitakerjennifer9542you see the flag in his profile, it makes sense 😂
I Say Be All You Can Be While You Can Be. Life Is A Beautiful Ride.
Totally agree.
Amen!
People who have negative energy will always have negative feelings about people. Focus on your self!
Stop calling everything negative that’s what people do when they don’t want to know the truth. Also do you not know that it takes a negative and a positive of a battery to start a vehicle. With that said negative and positives both work together
Love country music. I think Beyonce can sing any kind of music. We all can relate to some types of music. So great for her.
Dolly is never gonna be anything but classy and authentic. That’s all I’ve ever seen her and in general, country isn’t my thing but I like some songs. She made me a fan of some country music. A co-sign from her to Beyoncé is a big deal. Congrats Beyoncé! The songs are growing on me 😊
Hmmmm.
More the merrier there's plenty of boots for all of us 🤠
Yep 👍
Now this is how it should be!
This is so sad, this is not country. All the cussing and half dressed is not country. Country music used to have morals and integrity. Disgusting and disappointing
Rinestone Cowboy isn't a country song that was a popular country song and Garth Brooks used a bunch of KISS licks in his country music. Bro country is hip hop with twang. There were plenty of Dolly Parton boob jokes in the 1970s and 1980s.
Newsflash, country music was invented by Black people. Even the term Cowboy was used to describe the Black horse wranglers in the late 1800's. School yourself. This music was like everything else, highjacked from Blacks.
lol that is the biggest lie I ever heard. County music definitely uses profanity and doesn’t have morals all the time just like every genre. You just don’t want a black woman doing country. Wait till you discover black people created country music. Have a seat mam
@@orlock20,Garth Brooks wouldnt perform at Trumps inauguration . He went along with the mob. He has turned out to be a dissapointment . He even bashed Trump supporters at a convert .
@blueeyes2990 Oh you mean like the white girls who wear Daisy Dukes and shirts tied up with their breasts showing.
Just imagine a new country song with Dolly Parton ,Laney Wilson, and Beyonce ❤. GLAMOR, GRIT,and GRACE ! That would be incredible on soooo many levels. Just might break the internet 😊 . Much love and respect, ladies !
It's her choice if she wants to join country music some people like it some people don't I've only heard a little bit of Texas hold em it seemed okay I'm not into much new country music now days but I do wish Beyonce the best. With this new opportunity if it goes well if it goes well. if it doesn't it doesn't it's according to the people who makes successful it's the fans who make it all possible
I don't care for Beyonce's music at all...that's just my opinion. I don't have anything against her at all. I really don't care for Jay-Z he always has something hateful to say about people in general like his speech on the Grammy's.
They are both pollutants
@@karendowell-k1cwell Jay-Z is not country or even in the conversation.
Hats off to Charlie Pride! RIP
And DeFord Bailey!
that's 'Charley'.
Beyoncé needs to add extra yards of material to her wardrobe.
Isn't she most of the time like that. She's the only artist i've heard of who looks like they're trying to make somebody see as much as they can and still be called classy.
@@AnaJonedit's not classy it's class less
She's a joke that's a flat-out insult to anyone who cares.
It's like she can't make music unless people are staring at her body. Put some damn clothes on. Maybe then I might listen to the music. Until then, she could disappear tomorrow, and I wouldn't even notice along with most of the population. Just leave country alone. Your music isn't country. It's not even close. And that little stunt that she pulls with her fingers As a pretend gun is something that our children can't even do playing in school yards anymore. It's against the rules and if they get caught doing it, They get suspended because it's considered a threat to life.😅😅😅
No class what so ever!
@@AnaJoned Why? Because you said so? 😂😂😂 jealous.
I find it hilarious that the people who say “it’s not country” can never articulate why it’s not or even what country music is…Beyoncé is a southern woman born and raised in Houston Texas, she herself is quite literally country!! She’s making it her own, there are currently various different styles of country. To the people who say this isn’t country…..you’re exposing yourselves and your biases. This song is quite obviously country, stop saying otherwise cause you aren’t a fan
Just because you are born in a southern state does NOT make you country. there are Definitely parts of Texas that are as county as it gets,(coming from someone who has relative's who live in those parts) but i don't think Houston Texas is part of that. and it definitely does Not make her country.- i respect your opinion and i hope you do the same for me.😄
Pop/Country crossovers happen so regularly it's a popular radio format called Young Country. Beyonce fits in perfectly and will climb those and pop charts easily despite the efforts by some to cancel her freedom of expression.
@@AnnabelleE7479 You do know black people created country music?!
@jemseed yes and I am so grateful I love country music and it means so much me and my family. Also, bluegrass country was inspired by African Americans.
First of all, she has to trade in her Lexus for a truck.
I hate to admit this and I know i will get a lot of flak, but I feel the opposite.
I liked Taylor swift because she was country( i personally love all types of music) and was mad at her when she left.
I think that she was pretty and used country to build her fan base and when she got what she wanted, then left and never looked back. I may be wrong but i just felt she was fake in country and she was really another type of singer.
I would have respected her more if she just started in the genre she is in now and not used country.
I think anyone adding to country is great. Let's face it. Country turned into 70s rock a long time ago and now is country pop.
I've gotten used to it. At least Beyoncé is famous already and really doesn't need to prove she's awesome. She just is.
Now she trying to share her art to a different audience but she's not going to leave the people that made her a star.
Just my humble opinion and how i see it.
✌️and God bless.
As a lifelong Country fan (among other genres), I agree fully with everything you said. And I'd bet we're not the only two who feel as you stated about Taylor and her switch. I honestly never understood why she got multiple awards at every CMA, for doing, even then, "not really Country Music". And she did use that genre to build her fan base, and didn't even bother to say thank you, when she left!
@charlotte50224 thank you. For years, I thought I was missing something. Seriously, thank you so much for your reply.
I'm not alone.
I started out with soul music in the 70s and fell in love with country tru Urban Cowboy. It became a part of my life when I joined the Rodeo club in the Airforce, and it kept me awake and safe when I drove over the road.
I owe country singers and the music they make a great heart felt thanks. ♥️
Be blessed 🙏
y'all take things too seriously. it ain't that deep.
@76metiche considering the subject matter of this video, I think it's the correct amount of deepness. 😊
YOu really, really don't understand how music works for musicians. They make what they want, and they grow in whatever direction their talent and experience takes them.
Not a fan…
Congratulations nobody cares lol
And………
@JacksonFan96 you cared enough to comment lol also it's called having an opinion, oh right, you don't know what that is
You don't have to be. She's doing well w or w/o. I do ❤ how she shook the country music folks up and got so many bothered. There's enough room for all.
You don't need to be. She has plenty of those.
Strange how country music artists seem to be the only ones who think they own the genre and no one else can try. Its free speech peoples
And after people let them in they try to keep others out.
People do whatever they want when they want, if they want and don’t give a rat’s 🫏 who doesn’t like or dislike it. She’s doing her thing. I kinda really respect that. Dolly has a big heart with love for everyone. Not everyone will agree or disagree with this comment 🤷🏻♀️💕
Having that Beyonce kind of attitude... I don't give a damn because I am all that will cost her and other females the like to blow her own socket......at this stage SOONER than later.
So Taylor goes country to pop, and beyoncé goes pop to country.. lol
Beyonce is from Texas!!!! Is there a state "more" Country. Besides Country music had its roots from The Blues (African Americans).
All music is a Universal Language!!!
It's not country music, not the country music I know and love. Sorry, just how I see it.
No one cares what you think. That’s why it debuted at number 1. Stay mad troll
She isn't a queen,her "country music"really isn't that,she should stay in what she's always done.Why the sudden interest in country music. All the sudden black singers are in country.I love Darius, Jimmie Alan,Kane Brown but most of the ones trying to imitate being country shouldn't.Really ,now they want to do it all.💩🚫❓
There’s no such thing as country music. It’s just a label that record companies came up with to create lanes. Music is music. Anybody body and everybody can create music.
@@marilynwemmer2085 You do know it was BLACK people that invented country music, right??
Agree, go back to your body showing acts that are suggestive at best
Her dress code leaves much to be desired😢
Her Dress code is disgusting
Yes, that’s the only thing I don’t like. Dress code isn’t country.
💯
You don’t have to desire it. Dress the way you want to.
So far, her predecessors aren’t fairing that well in country music. No one wants agenda driven social justice country music
The problem is they have beat it to death in most other genres and the fans are over it, so now they want to try tap into a new market.
Political music was alright in 2020 and needed, but they are just repeating the same crap over and over
@@comercole1940 even rap is the same, political rappers are turning country. A mate told me last week country is the fastest growing genre, everyone trying to get a piece.
I am for anyone doing what they want. But politics need to go away and not be the center of everything
@@BlazeBuds hmmmmm. Those who can hide behind politics are the ones that claim politics shouldn’t be talked about. It’s uncomfortable when folks are called out and forced to face some, um, displeasing facts about their views.
Exactly
I do. I have loved Steve Earle for decades. And Johnny Cash for decades before that.
Is John Schneider mad about country rap too? How did politics get into this? Someone tell him that with 8 billion people on the planet there are 16 billion ears to listen to about 230 million songs that are estimated to exist. Hardly a scarcity situation.
I think Beyoncé needs to stay in her lane and not contaminate the county scene. Her lack of respect for herself and others reflects in how immodestly she dresses. My husband, children and grandchildren do not like the inappropriateness of Beyoncé’s immodest apparel. Wow, when your children and grandchildren see a problem, that is saying something for this “anything goes” generation…
Her lane is music point blank period!
You just wish you could fit into one of the outfits! Underlaying insecurities! She probably has one shoe that costs more than your whole life has acquired!
And your lane would be your family. So swerve back in your lane and stay out of hers. She’s an adult doing adult stuff. She doesn’t owe you, your husband, children/grandchildren anything
If yall don’t like her then don’t listen to her!!! She is a grown ass woman who has earned the right to sing whatever she wants and to dress however she pleases so how dare you say she needs to stay in her lane!!!! You sound racist as hell!!! When country singers sing other types of music do you say they need to stay in their lane??? Singers sing whatever the hell they want--you either listen to it or don’t!!! Queen B recognize and respect her or shut the f up!!!!!
@@user-lw8fp1io3hthis is what's wrong with people like you. Get all offended when someone else tries to install good values in their family. There's too much looseness in society today. If you don't stand for something you'll fall for anything. God sees all. Jesus is coming soon. Be aware.
I didn't care for Beyonce's new country songs I prefer her in hip hop. So I'm really confused on how she's this big thing in country all of a sudden. Be careful wolf in sheep's clothing
Why do you prefer an r&b singer in hiphop? I never liked hiphop Beyoncé tbh. I much prefer her R&B music that showcased her full vocal abilities over her attempts at hiphop that just felt like following trends.
She’s a country girl from Texas that can do multiple genres of music including Country. She’s not a sheep or a wolf‼️
“All of a sudden”? She’s an artist 1, just your fave isn’t versatile….
2. She was born and raised in Houston Texas
Don't care if she was born in Texas her song sucked that's just my opinion get over it
@@NanaGiGi70 well it just climbed to no.1 on Spotify’s global Top 50 which makes it the biggest song right now on the world’s biggest DSP. So clearly a critical mass of people are enjoying the record. At the end of the day, the song found its audience. Can’t complain about that. Not my favourite Beyonce record but happy for the people who love it.
Dolly Parton, classiest entertainer ever. I'm not especially a country music fan, but I was drawn to her music, and through her, gained a greater appreciation of it. But even more I'm drawn to Dolly's big hearted way of seeing the world. She's the symbol of the US I'd like us to be.
Sorry but her country music is really bad
NO IT IS NOT
@@juanettalyons7915 sorry, but yes it’s absolutely garbage
You people think you own everything,😂and you really don't😂 Unfortunately,white people don't own everything,and there are more minorities than white people 😂😂😂 it's the way God planned it 😂 if you got a problem with it, you have to take it up with the MAIN MAN😂 otherwise live as long as he lets you and try to do your best and do what his son Jesus Christ wood do😂 Love thy neighbor as thyself😂
It's all satanic symbology moloch worship. She and JZ are owned by the dark side it's well known by most. This song gets country fans to participate in Satan worship.
You can't just throw banjos on a song and call it "country." Beyonce still sings with R&B inflections/ vocal runs, so to my ears it's a little jarring. I don't understand why Beyonce felt she had to do this. It's not like she has to win new fans. Country fans already know who Beyonce is.
Chris Stapleton sings with very soulful melismas too just like Beyonce does. That’s why many r&B fans adore him.
Her husband probably wanted her to do it
I think Beyonce did a great job with her Texas hold em. I'm with Dolly on this, and am also excited to hear the whole album.
Everybody is free to express themselves in whatever way they like. Period.
I'm for anything that can bring us closer together, but im an old guy so what do i know 🤷♂️
Not impressed at all..I really don't like Beyonce's music. Just my opinion.
Hater.
If the real history about this country is taught black people started country music
The Irish started it with story ballards
That's right!
@@tawneymcqueen7890in Ireland. We are talking about American country music
If Dolly can be inducted into the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame, we can give Beyonce a go at country.
I listened to her song "Texas Hold'em" and it's far from country. She needs to stay in her pop, RnB/ rap genre. Because that sounds more like it. In that song, she sounds like she's trying too hard. Country music just isn't her thing.
She’s been experimenting with genre for a while, Beyoncé hasn’t put out a conventionally R&B album in 10 years now.
Country?
Agree
Number 1 on the Country Charts! It’s Country ‼️
I agree 100%. JUST because she is from Houston, Texas doesn't make her country. Bounce needs to stay home and take care of her kids.
She’s reclaiming Country for the culture. Black people have always contributed to this country and no matter what the bigots have something to say, but nothing to say about the theft and lack of credit given to Country Music’s creators. Black slaves in the south. Play with it. Erasing history doesn’t change it. Your actions will determine what your history will be remembered for. Learn from it. Don’t and you’re doomed to repeat it until you do. Congratulations Beyoncé for being strong, resilient, multitalented and multifaceted.
I Love All Music And All Artist That Choose To Perform Them !!! Music Is One Platform “That Should Not Be Placed In A Certain Box “
I don’t like the lyrics nor the tune of her song. My local radio station played it so I listen and not happy that they keep playing her crap. I now change the channel when they play it. Not saying she’s a bad singer she just needs to stick with her current music and stop trying to be country. Country is not what it use to be but they need to stop trying to fit in every where. I will not support her on any country at all. I also don’t appreciate how this shows she is dressed it’s disgusting. I don’t think this is ok at all
Funny how you people steal others genre, make it your own and having a problem with people who you stole if from in the first place....you people have no originality js
She can literally do whatever she wants. You’re a real hater. And a fool. You need to find out where country music came from.
People can fit in wherever they want. Who the hell are you? YOU stay in your lane.
No one said anything when Ray Charles ventured into country music so.......what's the problem?
Ray Charles stuck to the format. Charley Pride stuck to the format. Darius Rucker stuck the format. It is not a black/white thing. It is a music thing. Eight bars of banjo do not make it country. I'm waiting to see hear the rest of the album. So far though, all this does is take popular Country one step further down the road to Hip-Hop. It is like trying to play baseball with a basketball. Making this about race is just stupid. Race has nothing to do with it. Time signatures, instrumentation, lyrics, and record production have everything to do with it. Are you not sophisticated enough to understand that?
@@plchacker No need to throw insults.Just a question.
And never said this was about race.
@@user-me5le6nv5q Just heading it off at the beginning. I promise you that was not far down the list. Being a straight, white christian married male automatically makes anything I say, racists, sexist, homophobic, bigotry, or some other trigger. In this case it would be racists because Beyonce is Black.
There are a lot of true country musicians out there that just happen to be black. Beyonce is not one of them. At least not from the first two releases.
@@plchacker Hear ya.
We created country music get over it. She's already broken so many records and will dominate that too so byyyyeee. Plus HELLOO she's literally FROM TEXAS and grew up on country music also. Sooooo it's not a stretch. WE CREATED THE GENRE.
Oh please. John Schneider is as much of a country artist as I am. I’m not. If you give 2 fucks for his opinion that says a lot about you.
She's not country. She needs to stop trying to be something she is not.
She’s a musician she doesn’t have to stay in one lane. Cry somewhere else
@@msbreezy8310 why don't you mind your business was asked what I thought and I gave my honest opinion!
Dad from Alabamee momma from Louisiana Beyoncé born and raised in Texas can’t get anymore country than that, now you just hush you mad the fact that she’s black 🤫
So.true
@@Nicole_Jewellit's a public forum B! can't take the heat, don't eat the pepper.
No, thank you!
Stay in your lane.
Beyoncé country….lmao….about as country as pearl in a cow pie…
Country slang, huh?
Plenty of women who sing country music are very sophisticated. Keep up.
Listen, that dog comment was truly not necessary. But anyway, you go, Beyonce' spread your wings 🦋 🦋 😊 .... You're born talent when your lord and Savior gives it to you best be sure you are blessed humbly. Keep up with all that you're blessed with. Those who judge don't matter, and those who matter don't judge. Can't wait for the album.🎉🎉🎉😊❤
Oh my God, how can you blaspheme God, this lady does not serve God, you’re foolish she serves the devil
Was everybody this upset when Darius Rucker started making country music? Last I checked, both Darius and Beyonce are from the south, so what’s really the problem??? Darius did rock, r and b and country. They are artist, this is what artist do.
Hmmmm. Really?
The pointer sisters had a #1 country song in 1974. Get over it !
Why do people insist on reading so much into music? It's entertainment, it's fun, it's a bowl of candy on the table. If you like it, help yourself. If you don't like it, leave it alone.
It's supposed to make you feel good. If it does, be happy about it and appreciate the creator. If it doesn't, move on to the next one and leave it for those who do like it.
Beyoncé - & anyone else - can do whatever genre of music they like... nobody owns music - it belongs to the world - & every kind of music is a mosaic of influences... if you really know country music or American music in general then you're aware of the African-American roots of practically every style of American music, including country music.
I dont like it whatsoever but that's my opinion. Noone has to agree! I think if you like country music, then that's sure not it!
THIS IS NOT COUNTRY MUSIC...THIS IS CRAP..DOLLY IS JUST BEING POLITE....BEYONCE IS JUST SO PHONY..HAS NO REAL IDENTITY....AND SHES LIKE COUNTRY PORN..ITS GROSS...AND ITS ONLY TOP BECAUSE SHE HASCTIES TOVGETVIT THERE
that's fine if you genuinely don't like it. but many are hating simply because it's her.
@@76metiche Thank you! I felt it wasn't country but having listened a few times, I'm finding its not too bad and it's a good one to dance to. I'm still not convinced it's country but I'm starting to like it.
Hater. Where did country music come from, since you know so much. Girl, please!
Y’all think you can force someone to do something. That’s some bs.
I'm not a fan of country pop, but really, Ray Charles did it. Why not Beyonce?
I almost think she is trying to show Taylor Swift she can change genres and own it to. I really see no harm in it as long as its country music, and not this crap they call country today, just some moron with a southern twang singing about pickups, tractors or the country backed by the tired dull boring sound of click beat in the background. My cousin took 6 country songs from the last 5 years and stripped them to the music, mainly the beat, you almost couldn't tell them apart. Maybe she will bring a freshness to country that's needed. Of course, most white people think country was all white invented....WRONG!!!! Country began in the Appalachian Mountains around the 1920s, when Irish, Scottish and English folk songs were blended with black blues, which were basically given birth to from slave and black gospel. It was basically at first what we know today as Bluegrass, but the more the blues which was 100% black was learned the more the style was incorporated into the genre. There were very early recordings, but the first well remembered people recording country was Jimmie Rogers, which many called the Blue Yodeler and the Carter Family. Some people say that yodeling was European and indeed it was true, from the Swiss mountains from herders. But it also sounds a lot like the yell of black gospel slave or even some blues. The Carter family were always given 100% credit for their music. Maybel Carter claimed to have invented the Carter Scratch, a form of playing where you do the bass and treble on one guitar by what some call chicken picking. But little do many know the whole sound of the Carter family was popular because of a black man that A.P. Carter became best friends with by the name of Lesley Riddle. Many people said he taught them how to sound and play, many get mad a denied it. It was the mountains, and the 20s and 30s, and racism was still a normal way of life then. The Scratch is very similar to how blues was played, and Riddle had played the blues his whole life. But he and Carter were after the music itself, and to keep history of it as well as keep incorporating the genres together to bring together what is known as country. Any music fro America, aside Baroque, Polka, waltzes and opera, is based on black slave, gospel and blues. Big Band, Ragtime, Jazz, Rock and Country were mainly black. I had a buddy laughed and said blacks had nothing to do with blue grass. I asked him what it's played on mainly. he said a banjo. RIGHT, I said, and that's an African instrument, and Africans taught whites to play it. He still thinks I'm lying. So, if a modern-day black girl wants to sing country, I say go for it, your ancestors helped create it.....
I like the fact that she or anyone can make a good record write an awsome song or songs album or albums it doesn't matter does it??? Nope it doesn't at least not to me bc I love alllllll music songs well ya'll get my drift more power to them !!! So Good for THE BIG B.😂🎉🎉❤
It's all satanic symbology moloch worship. She and JZ are owned by the dark side it's well known by most. This song gets country fans to participate in Satan worship.
Country music is not a monolith, we have always had bluegrass that leaned more liberal but over all a music genre is not owned by a political party, ideology, or skin color. Beyonce is a pop diva, but if she wants to appreciate the art of country, then let her! She will be exposing a whole new audience to what makes the genre engaging
I've only seen 2 of her new videos and both are just a few seconds of her set on repeat throughout the video.
Those are not official videos, which she will release together after her trilogy of albums.
I read the lyrics and wasn't impressed.
Turn the channel. Damn.
I really hope Beyonce will give Mickey Guyton & several other deserving Black female Country singer-songwriters boosts. Guyton deserves to reach the next level.
She already has and they are thanking her for it. Beyonce is very generous and knows what she is doing. ❤
Country music is so popular now. Any artist who wants to try the genre, I say, go for it. To the public, I say if you don't like the album, don't listen. Why can't we all just be like Dolly??
Agreed, but getting Gibbons to play eight measures of banjo, does not make it country. That said, popular country is not really country anymore. The stuff pushed by Nashville is a long way from traditional country music. There are plenty traditional country musicians, they just don't get air time.
I think everyone is throwing this way out of portion. With the sound of new country Beyonce actually fits right in with the rest of them. I don't see anything wrong except it being a new sound. People need to grow up and stop pointing fingers.
Let's all step back in history and talk about Olivia Newton -John winning CMA vocalist or Mac Davis, Shania Twain and John Denver winning CMA Entertainer. Give her a chance. We still have the old country to fall back on. But if country music didn't change or keep up with everything else there'd be not country music.
I think this is all to do with JZ. When she does not get the awards JZ thinks she should get he just switched the association!!! He wants her to be #1 and second will not fly!!!
Absolutely agree 100%
Exactly!
You must have watched his speech at this year's Grammy's show too. 😉
I just love Beyonce's Texas hold em far better than most country songs in my opinion for those country fans that are resisting I think they'll really catch on to Texas hold em
If she switches to country hope she leaves the nasty language out of it...
Love that Beyonce made this album and love Dollys response.
I think a country singer had a very specific voice and culture. I don't think people can just start being a country singer.
Get in your own (hater) lane.
I can't stand her country music at all
Then, quit being a hater. Find something else to do with your hating-ass time!
Don’t put your whole brain on display. Damn.
Just because a person is from Texas. That does not mean that they can sing country song. And even if it's made the top Number one Or Whatever it doesn't matter.I don't think the Song is worth anything and It doesn't sound country at all. Sometime You just need to stay in your lane What you're used to,and leave country Music to the people who Really can sing. I'm a little bit of both traditional and modernseen country songs When it comes to listening to music.I don't dislike Beyoncé. I just think sometime you just need to leave certain things alone.This is just my opinion
Well some like it and some don’t everybody has a right to their opinion. She still going to make her money regardless 👏🏽👏🏽👏🏽
“Leave country music to the people who can really sing.” Is such a crazy statement seeing how I haven’t heard one talented country vocalist.
Wow I love the insightful and thoughtful comments on this channel and video. I love what Beyonce has done, and I didn't expect to. I thought why classify yourself? I thought it was a cynical move to sell more albums. And then I listened to Cowboy Carter. It's incredible, it's a concept album inspired by the country music genre. As a core country music fan (Marty Robbins, Johnny Cash, Merle Haggard, Dolly Parton, etc) I love what she's done. She really understands the genre and created something new and old within it. Beautiful.
Modern country is a clown show. If you're gonna clown it up, might as well go big.
You’re a clown show, on your own.
I heard the lyrics and wasn't impressed at all. R n b is Beyonces genre. Stick with it.
Lucy,…..why don’t YOU stay in your lane?
YOU get in your damn lane. Know your place Lucy.
@blackmatter2769 have a blessed day and life. Everyone is entitled. I love to hear black people sing. Beyonce isn't one of then. So you stay in your own lane!
Nop never have never will! She is a thug with money.
Wow do you actually know what a thug is? It’s a violent criminal, she’s never done anything of the sort, you’re so used to referring to black peoples as such, too bad there’s no cure for racism, you’re sick
And that comment makes you what????? Broke and one!!!
…She’s a billionaire. For real,….i can think of some other thugs, lol. And “nope” is spelled with an E, at the end. Who’s the thug now?
@@blackmatter2769 You just proved my point. An error in typing. Another thug is exposed. There is no room in true country music for someone like her who is only looking to make a point and more money with the black community. That's all I have to say on this subject. Good Day
All of this NEGATIVE talk about BEYONCÉ COUNTRY MUSIC IS ABSOLUTEY DEGRADING AND UNFAIR TO HER PERIOD! I am bi racial and grew up mostly in the South during school years . I LIVED IN TEXAS FOR FIVE YEARS AND ATTENDED THE UNIVERSITY OF TEXAS FOR 3 years.
Listen, BEYONCÉ HAS A RIGHT TO WRITE AND SING SONGS THAT IS TRUE TO HER AND APPEALS TO HER FAN BASE. AS A TEXAS NATIVE , COUNTRY MUSIC ABIDES THERE.
SHE OBVIOUSLY LIKES COUNTRY MUSIC AND I LOVE COUNTRY MUSIC AND TEXAS!
From what I see from the NEGATIVE COUNTRY ARTISTS WHO MADE DEROGATORY COMMENTS , IT IS MY OPINION THAT THIS IS HORSESHIT AND JEALOUSY AND RACISM.
WHERE DO WHITE PEOPLE IN THE COUNTRY MUSIC INDUSTRY GET OFF MAKING THE UNFAIR JUDGEMENTS. SHE WENT ON STAGE SINGING COUNTRY MUSIC WITH COUNTRY MUSIC ARTIST AND SHE WASNT LABELED AS A COUNTRY MUSIC ARTIST BUT YET YOU HAD HER THERE ANYWAY, Now she comes out with 2COUNTRY MUSIC SONGS AND ITS A HIT! I know she is not Technically labeled a country music artist or her previous music but what is wrong with making songs that crossover to country. Obviously she had it in her for a long time to do this kind of music. Instead of BASHING her , why can’t they welcome her if her music is top hits and popular. Country music is not owned by ANYONE! Who decided that black people are not allowed to perform country music and CROSSOVER to Adding Country music to their platform. The Country music industry treated CHARLEY PRIDE LIME CRAP AND DID NOT RECOGNIZE HIM UNTIL HE WAS NEARLY DEAD OR DEAD. JUST DISGUSTING BEHAVIOR BY RACIST WHITE PEOPLE WHO STILL THINK THEY ARE ABOVE AND BEYOND PEOPLE OF COLOR. WE WERE COWBOYS FIRST AND EVERYTHING ELSE AND HAVE RIGHT TO BE INVOLVED WITH COUNTRY MUSIC. ITS BAD ENOUGH THAT ALOT OF OUR SONGS LIKE “ YELLOW ROSE OF TEXAS WAS WRITTEN BY A BLACK MAN AND STOLE FROM WHITE PEOPLE . THEIR THINKING IS UNHOLY AND WRONG THROUGH LEARNED BEHAVIOR . ITIS TIME WE COME TOGETHER AND STOP THIS CRAP AS IT WILL ONLY DESTROY THIS WORK EVENTUALLY. THERE IS ENOUGH FAME , FORTUNE TO GO AROUND FOR ALL OF US AND THESE GREEDY INDIVIDUALS CONTINUE TO INSIGHT PREJUDICE BECAUSE THEY ARE JEALOUS, RACISTS AND CANT STAND IT WHEN PEOPLE OF COLOR CONTRIBUTE TO SOMETHING BEAUTIFUL. I SAY “ HOLDEM BEYONCE AND KICK IT UP A NOTCH AND SHOWEM WHO IS BOSS! Keep doing what you are doing because the younger generation eventually are going put a stop to this crap. WRITE YOUR SONGS AND MANY MORE AND BLOW THEM OUT OF THE WATER! The re is the old saying “ IF YOU CANT TAKE THE HEAT, GET THE HELL OUT OF THE KITCHEN”. Thank you to all who gave their support to her and WATCH OUT , HER DAUGHTER BLUE IVY, FITTING NAME FOR A COUNTRY ARTIST, MAY END UP TOPPING THE CHARTS ONE DAY LIKE HER HISTORY MAKING MAMA! YOU GO GIRL! ❤
And yes the BOLD TEXT IS FOR A REASON. TO MAKE YOU HEAR ME! STRAIGHTEN UP WHITE PEOPLE AND STOP THIS BS BECAUSE SHE IS NOT GOING ANYWHERE!
Destroy the world not work , but maybe it will destroy the work. Maybe I said it right t(e First time LOL!
Yeah you're doing too much, has nothing to do with her being black, her lyrics and instrumentals are just trash, that's all lol, and not to mention she's trying to be a TS wannabe, do anything for fame and money
Yep.
I know Beyonce is trying her hand at country music, I listen to this song of hers and personally it's not bad but it doesn't sit right with me. Because even though you add Banjo 🪕 and/or Fiddle/Violin 🎻 to song it doesn't make it Country, even adding Steel Guitar or a Mandolin probably work either. This is sadly why artist like George Strait, Alan Jackson and the Late Loretta Lynn questioned the state the industry in; I admit with some songs I'm trying write, I'm try too keep some of old and bit of new in it. I guess more because I listen to 90's/early 2000s Country music and that mostly my heart goes to, some of today are good but I also understand the origin of things and why I work so hard; mostly due to learning from past generations that if you want something in life, you have to work hard for it.
Country purists hated people adding drums and electric instruments to country music. Then people complained about labels hiring people not from the "country" and teaching these new singers to use a "Southern" accent.
You do know it was a black man with a banjo who started country music country music did start with Black people and Beyoncé is from Texas Houston at that and when it sounds like a genre people usually play it on their radio station just like if white people play something that soulful is played on a soul radio stationand it’s never a problem with that but it seems like when blacks try to go into something that’s majority why it’s a lot of criticism even from there and I don’t understand why
It's not about race! She is half white I believe! The lyrics suck!
@@joyceking8789maybe we should infiltrate ALL of the "blacks only" TV stations and award ceremonies and history months and colleges! White people aren't the ones who are starting Segregation all over again!! 🙄
Country was invented by Black people
The backlash towards beyance is about as ridiculous as as when people were trying to say Bruno Mars was appropriating black music.
Yes, he was.i agree
@@blackmatter2769But nobody tried to interfere with his success.
Today's country ain't country it's pop.
I'm not a Beyoncé fan, but, after Hold em Texas, Jolene and Cowboy Carter, I just might be one of her new fans❤. You go country girl😂
Honestly with a lot of country songs becoming more like pop than the older stuff, it's not a surprise that more people are crossing over. I do like the song Texas hold'wm as it's catchy and I wasn't even aware of it being Beyonce to begin with. That said, I am holding out to see how her album does and where she goes with it as I have seen some do great in country and there's others who shouldn't go that route. So I think her music will need to speak for itself.
Also, I know Dolly is a fan of music in general and really, I can't blame her. The more wholesome music we have the better. But I am just not sure how she will do since it will be a lot different than her usual work. Which is why I am waiting because honestly, we all know it takes more than one or two singles to really be good at country.
But I also understand why some artists are upset. Because there is some singers who are so iconic in their genres that it would be devastating to hear them switch. Can you see Brittany Spears as a country singer? I know I can't. How about Eminem? Beyonce was one of those but she does have the vocal range for it. It's just a matter if she has the heart, emotions, and twang for it. Because good country music.... Has that country twang.
Beyonce is a Country Girl thats the difference
Houston is country
Beyoncé, stay in your own lane.
Blacks created country music research
Be quiet racist
Beyoncé is her own lane.
you're basically telling every musician to stay in their own lane. Many singers/musicians experiment with different genres. it's how they master their craft and stay relevant. you're too uptight about this.
@@76metiche this is my opinion same as you have your opinion, she doesn’t belong in country music, she brings nothing to the table in country music my opinion,I will keep my opinion ,how you feel is OK with me, you be you, I will be me.
wait a second... is she 'Appropriating' blonde hair???
The same way you guys have appropriated “big lips”, “big boobs”, big butts”… Think BEFORE you decide to talk. Don’t put your full brain on display. Girl, please.
Y’all appropriate everything else. Since the beginning of time.
Who the hell are lefties? Dolly Parton released her Rock N Roll Album on her 78th birthday? The World Icon has introduced Rock songs to multiple generations & they love it! Today Country Music reminds me a lot of Southern Rock. When I was growing up. Music is like language because it is ever evolving.
We all know why Bee is singing her version
of Country, Nashville is on the Wokes hit list!
Stop it. Do you mean (Black) hit list? ….All this… for this?
