You look like ice spice

You mentioned that someone said that the 4 laddies that sing Blackbird with Beyonce were new to country music. Actually, aside from Tanner Adel, the other 3 have been making country music for over 10 years. There are a lot of black county artists making music. You have to search for them on social media and streaming services. The problem is, you need support from record labels, promoters and radio stations to really make it. I've heard some of them in interviews and they say they don't get that support of radio play or at least not enough of it.

This whole album is in response to how she was treated at CMA. American Requiem is telling them about themselves. She researched and it took over 5 years for her to develop this album. The album is full of history and reclaiming music that black people/ slaves started, but were kicked out of once it became popular. Beyoncé uses her album to tell a story. It’s like watching a movie. You wouldn’t want to come in 1/4 of the way through, leave and then come back to watch the end or have people to tell you the best part and then go in just to watch that part of the movie. It’s weird, because I didn’t realize that until I watched someone react to her entire Lemonade album recently. Having said all that, let me give you an overview of the movie that is Cowboy Carter: This whole album is in response to how she was treated at CMA. American Requiem is telling them about themselves. She researched and it took over 5 years for her to develop this album. The album is full of history and reclaiming music that black people/ slaves started, but were kicked out of once it became popular. Let’s just point out that Country radio has an issue with playing black artists so Beyoncé told everyone about her new venture during the Super Bowl then dropped two country songs. The Bey Hive activated and most country stations played her music. But to top it off, her album is presented as its own radio station with country legends presenting her music. This Album was meant to be Act I. This was Beyoncé’s response to how she was treated at the CMA. The requiem funeral procession was trying to let us know that Country Music was rooted and started by blacks. If you look into the history, it started by people putting on black face for minstrel music making fun of the slaves with their banjos. Then people who are credited with starting country, came to black street artists to learn their craft. Once it became big, black people were pushed aside and they started gate keeping the genre. Same thing happened with rock & roll, jazz, blues, and many of the genres that are considered to have been started in America. Thus, Beyoncé is reclaiming all of the music that we’ve been kicked out of that we helped create. It’s why this album delves into all those genres and ends with her buckin breaking down walls and asking if we can hear her now. Then she says that we are the ones who have to clean ourselves of our father’s sins to end the funeral procession . Can we take a moment to realize that Blackbird was written not just about Civil rights, but in reaction to how those kids from the Little Rock Nine were treated. There were 5 little girls that were part of the Little Rock 9 and Beyoncé added 4 black female country artist to show 5 women being kept out of a segregated country genre music system. Alligator tears could be analogy of how America treats its black people. Just like Requiem America espouses big ideas, but when it needs to be built, saved from their own actions (Trump & white nationalist), it turns to black people to save it and gives us alligator tears but doesn’t change. Think about the celebrity Jewish people who said why aren’t black people coming to march and help us. Think about women’s rights to vote, that left black women behind, think about how Civil rights gave women rights that gave white women better pay and a seat at tables. Because the Civil Rights laws covers women and minorities. And what do they do, side with the people who fought to keep them from getting those rights. Now they watching all their rights stripped away now they looking at us to help them regain everything they gave away. I could go on, but you get the picture.

If you want R&B Beyonce, it all still available for streaming. She has a very clear direction on where shes going with these 3 acts. There's no reclaiming of R&B needed as it is very much represented by black people. So much in fact they want to just pigeonholed them to just that genre. That is the point of this project which does point to Rock and it's sub genres. Look at the landscape of Rock now, what do you see.....that's the point. I'll always love R&B Beyonce and she gives us sprinkles with the genre bends she does but she has evolved passed that sound.

I love that you loved the album! I really can‘t understand why there‘s so much hate right now for her winning AOTY. She earned it in my opinion Two things: The songs ‚Protector‘ and ‚My Rose‘ are actually for her two other kids. And the ending of the album‘s last track leads into Renaissance because this one was supposed to be released first Your reactions are great btw, so keep going!

Reage a "HIT ME HARD AND SOFT" DA BILLIE EILISH

Love your reactions ❤ a lot of ppl don’t like alligator tears but it’s one of my favs lol, it’s supposed to sound swampy and lethargic to give the imagery/feeling of the bayous
