A Brief Recap On The Singer’s Country Debut
According to Variety, Beyoncé released her most recent project, ‘Renaissance,’ which was primarily a dance album, in 2022. At the time, the singer reportedly revealed that the album would be “the first of a ‘three-act project.'”
Then, in February 2024, the singer went viral after teasing two new singles called ‘Texas Hold ‘Em’ and ’16 Carriages,’ while starring in a Verizon commercial that aired during Super Bowl LVIII, per The Shade Room.
Bey’s announcement prompted many social media users to compare her and fellow singer K. Michelle, who also ventured into country music after primarily releasing R&B music.
However, K. Michelle quickly shut down the comparisons.
