Saddle up, Beyhive. Cowboy Carter is coming!
Before the album’s official drop this Friday, Beyoncé gave fans a little taste of what’s to come via her Instagram, showcasing a vintage-style poster filled with what seems to be the titles of her new songs. The image also hinted at possible collaborations with big names, including Dolly Parton and Willie Nelson.
The list includes the earlier hits “Texas Hold ‘Em” and “16 Carriages,” along with fresh tracks like “American Requiem,” “Blackbird,” and “Protector.” Fans are also looking forward to tunes like “My Rose,” “Bodyguard,” “Daughter,” and a slew of others, including “Spaghetti,” “Alligator Tears,” and “Smoke Hour II,” which seems like a possible Willie Nelson collab.
It was already rumored that Bey recorded a cover of Dolly Parton’s classic, “Jolene” which is listed on the tracklist. And the rumors garnered even more flames when Dolly let slip earlier this month that Beyoncé might just have covered her iconic 1973 track.
“Well, I think she has,” Dolly said in an interview with Knox News. “I think she’s recorded ‘Jolene’ and I think it’s probably gonna be on her country album, which I’m very excited about that,” Dolly added.
Cowboy Carter arrives on March 29 and pays homage to Bey’s Texan roots while embracing country music’s rich traditions. But remember, this ain’t a country album — IT’S A BEYONCÉ ALBUM.
