@dbrent_:
"Do yall hear these stacked vocals on Alligator tears??! Yall favorite artist not doing this!"
@FvshionsWarrior:
"Live listening session adjourned. The verdict is in. It’s a hit. 10/10."
@carolinerenard_:
"Paul McCartney wrote Blackbird about a Black woman during the civil rights movement, so for Beyoncé to put the Black country girls on this specific song. I’m going to be so normal about my favourite song."
The story behind Cowboy Carter
10 days before the album debuted, Beyoncé Knowles posted a lengthy post where she explained that the country-inspired album was born from an unwelcoming experience.
Many people pieced everything together and assumed that Beyoncé was referencing her 2016 performance at the Country Music Awards (CMAs.)
Beyoncé performed Daddy Lessons with a band named The Chicks. Outrage ensued, and people threatened to boycott the ceremony. This resulted in her performance being removed.
Beyoncé and Michael Jackson had the internet reeling
In a previous report from YEN.com.gh, a viral video of a young Beyoncé Knowles and a young Michael Jackson performing I Wanna Be Where You Are at the same age, years apart, trended online.
Netizens expressed astonishment at their coincidence and praised the raw talent and influence of both legendary artistes.
