Valdrin Sahiti
@beyonce

Though this custom Valdrin Sahiti bodysuit followed a similar silhouette to many of Beyonc\u00e9\u2019s form-fitting looks, its dramatic tulle shoulders and flowing train certainly spiced things up a bit. The singer rounded out the look with a pair of cat eye sunglasses and PVC heels by Mach and Mach.

Missoni
@beyonce

Unlike her Marni look which was heavy on mixed metals, this custom Missoni ensemble was pure silver.

She also wore a silver long sleeve top with built-in gloves underneath, Amina Muaddi heels, and custom Tiffany & Co. glasses.

Marni
@beyonce

Patchwork like never before. The singer donned this custom Marni look, composed of a cropped puffer jacket, bodysuit, and boots, for her Atlanta show. The silver and gold pieces were made of leather and fragmented crystals for some extra shine.

@beyonce

Alberta Ferretti
@beyonce

Alberta Ferretti has been a constant throughout Beyonc\u00e9\u2019s Renaissance wardrobe. So, naturally, the singer chose a scarlet bodysuit, complete with a sculpted bodice and plenty of crystals, for her Atlanta show.

Gaurav Gupta
Kevin Mazur/WireImage/Getty Images

The star opted for another Gaurav Gupta look, this one, from the brand\u2019s fall/winter 2023 collection. Like her previous ensemble from the brand, the green dress featured an array of smartly placed cut-outs and a thigh-high slit.

Carolina Herrera
@beyonce

If this Carolina Herrera ensemble looks familiar, that\u2019s because Beyonc\u00e9 previously wore a red version earlier on in her tour. Like the last wear, this one was made complete with a dramatic headpiece and opera-style gloves. The star also tied in a pair of Ala\u00efa cabaret sandals, a pari she\u2019s taken a liking to throughout her time on the road.

Lapointe
@beyonce

The star chose a Barbie pink look from Lapointe during her show in Charlotte, North Carolina. The curve-hugging mini dress featured a one-side feather sleeve and a draped train at the side.

Ralph Lauren

Nina Ricci

Beyonc\u00e9 looked straight out of a sci-fi thriller in this custom Demobaza look which featured a color blocked bodysuit, harness, and white boots.

Jean Paul Gaultier
@beyonce

Jean Paul Gaultier is known for their trippy prints, so it\u2019s no surprise then that the bending motif was the focal point of this custom bodysuit.

Valentino
Courtesy of Parkwood

The debate is still out on whether this look should be classified as Barbie pink or Valentino pink. Regardless, Beyonc\u00e9 nailed this custom look from the Italian brand. She paired the form-fitting bodysuit (which was layered under a cape) with knee-high boots and feathered shield sunglasses.

Marc Jacobs
@marcjacobs

For her New York show, Beyonc\u00e9, fittingly, wore one of the city\u2019s favorite designers. Her custom Marc Jacobs gown featured a dramatic slit, bending black and white stripes, and a slew of dazzling Swarovski crystals.

Georges Hobeika
@georgeshobeika

The singer looked ethereal in this semi-sheer Georges Hobeika gown. The piece featured delicate embroidery throughout and a strappy neckline at the bodice. Her sheer headpiece was crafted with 3D embroidered flowers and her opera gloves were trimmed with train-like pieces of fabric.

Ivy Park
Kevin Mazur/WireImage/Getty Images

Beyonc\u00e9 donned another custom Ivy Park look for her New Jersey show. This one kept up the camouflage theme with another pair of slouchy knee-high boots. Instead of a form-fitting bodysuit like she\u2019s worn in the past, her jersey-style long sleeve was decidedly more casual (yet still packed a punch with crystal embroidery). Blue Ivy had on a matching jersey, too.

Kevin Mazur/WireImage/Getty Images

Sparkles and (faux) fur took center stage in this Philosophy di Lorenzo Serafini look. Her long sleeve bodysuit was embellished with Swarovski crystals and layered perfectly beneath the apricot coat.

Miu Miu
Kevin Mazur/WireImage/Getty Images

The singer packed on the sparkle in this Miu Miu look during her stop in East Rutherford, New Jersey. The tank and cut-off shorts were embroidered with rhinestones and crystals as were her fringed knee-high boots, naturally. She paired the set with a custom Tiffany & Co. silver peephole cowboy hat and HardWear drop earrings.

Louis Vuitton
@louisvuitton

Louis Vuitton\u2019s newly appointed creative director of menswear, Pharrell Williams, designed this glittering catsuit for Beyonc\u00e9\u2019s Detroit, Michigan concert. The two have quite the history as long time friends and collaborators\u2014Williams has produced songs for Beyonc\u00e9 in the past and she recently attended his debut runway show for the French brand earlier this year. The custom bodysuit put a spin on the brand\u2019s famed Damier check through glittering crystal embroidery. Williams also created custom ensembles for Blue Ivy and Beyonc\u00e9\u2019s backup dancers.

Ivy Park and Ala\u00efa
Courtesy of Tiffany & Co.

Beyonc\u00e9 looked like liquid gold in this hooded mesh gown from Ivy Park.

To round things out, Beyonc\u00e9 accessorized the look with equally as flashy opera gloves and above-the-knee boots.

Courtesy of Tiffany & Co.

Beyonc\u00e9 traded her tour wardrobe of silver and gold for some Tiffany blue while in Chicago, Illinois.

Twister Collar Necklace.

Acne Studios
Courtesy of Acne Studios

Beyonc\u00e9\u2019s Acne Studios ensemble may have nailed the Barbie pink look, but it certainly did not disappoint during her Minneapolis show. She paired her reflective mini shorts and bustier with an oversized jacket and sparkling thigh-high boots.

Schiaparelli
@beyonce

Beyonc\u00e9\u2019s Renaissance wardrobe isn\u2019t just limited to bodysuits\u2014she\u2019s also been incorporating dramatic ensembles like this custom Schiaparelli mini dress and shawl. The strapless piece featured white feathered detailing which she paired with simple Dolce & Gabbana heels.

Balmain
@beyonce

Balmain has been a focal point of Beyonc\u00e9\u2019s Renaissance wardrobe and things got taken up a notch during her stop in Minneapolis. The singer opted for a sculptural latex bodysuit that she accessorized with knee-high boots, shield sunglasses, and a brimmed top hat.

Marine Serre
@beyonce

Beyonc\u00e9 stunned in silver with this custom Marine Serre look. The star wore a fitted bodysuit, complete with the brand\u2019s signature moon motif, as well as chain undergarments layered on top. She added in a brimmed hat and silver boots for good measure, too.

Alexander McQueen
@alexandermcqueen

This custom Alexander McQueen bodysuit is a riff on a similar look from the brand\u2019s fall/winter 2016 collection. The semi-sheer piece features sequin horse embroidery and a tulle base.

Diesel
Courtesy of Diesel

It\u2019s no secret that Beyonc\u00e9 has been all in on the bodysuit style throughout her tour. But this custom Diesel look for her Louisville, Kentucky show may just be one of her most unique styles thus far. The trompe l\u2019oeil look featured a print mimicking denim and grey crystals throughout. And to round things out, the piece\u2019s boots and gloves were connected to the main portion of the ensemble.

Raisa Vanessa
Courtesy of Raisa Vanessa

Pulling out the sequins in Louisville, Beyonc\u00e9 dazzled in this custom mini dress by Raisa Vanessa.

Dsquared2
@dsquared2

Beyonc\u00e9 donned this Dsquared2 bodysuit\u2014complete with layers of dazzling embellishments and a plunging neckline\u2014for the opening act of her Louisville concert.

Alexander McQueen
Courtesy of Alexander McQueen

Alexander McQueen was a staple throughout Beyonc\u00e9\u2019s European performances, so it\u2019s no surprise that she\u2019s returned to the British brand when stateside. During her Nashville concert, the singer wore a custom bodysuit, gloves, and boots complete with crystal embroidery. She stopped it off with a UFO-shaped chapeau appropriate for an alien superstar. The outfit seemed to be a shorter version of a look she wore earlier on in the tour.

David Koma
@beyonce

The singer opted for another dazzling custom look from David Koma. Unlike her previous printed mini dress from the British designer, this red number had plenty of sequins throughout as well as an asymmetrical train detail. She rounded things out with patent leather boots, a ruby belt, and pendant necklace.

Ivy Park
@beyonce

The McQueen look wasn\u2019t the only repurposed silhouette Beyonc\u00e9 wore in Nashville. She opted for a pink Ivy Park jacket, halter top, and shorts that are, again, a shorter iteration of a similar bodysuit she previously wore in Europe. She also mixed in a pair of custom Tiffany & Co. sunglasses and Gedebe boots to make things even more Renaissance worthy.

Valentino
@beyonce

Beyonc\u00e9 certainly leaned into some drama (and disco) with this custom Valentino look in Philadelphia. The focal point was the seemingly never-ending sequined train that connected to the pouf bodice of the bodysuit. She paired the flashy piece with coordinating boots, and towards the end of the show, she flew above the crowd in this look while mounted on a horse.

Givenchy
@beyonce

The singer mixed in some more sequins in Philadelphia with this custom Givenchy mini dress. The piece featured intricately placed cut-outs as well as fringe throughout the dress. She rounded things out with strappy heels and sheer black opera gloves. She, of course, also had on diamonds from Tiffany & Co. in the form of a ring, drop earrings, and a tennis bracelet.

Ivy Park
@beyonce

Beyonc\u00e9 went with another camouflage look from her label Ivy Park, this one a two-piece set. The crop top had built in sleeve-gloves and the mini shorts also featured chaps-like detailing that extended into her boots.

Tiffany & Co.
@beyonce

Beyonc\u00e9 has been wearing plenty of Tiffany & Co. jewelry throughout her tour, but she took it to another level for her first North American stop in Toronto, Canada. The singer donned a dazzling bespoke mini dress from the brand complete with layers of chains and stones. The mesh look of the piece was inspired by the designs of Elsa Peretti and took nearly 200 hours to make. Beyonc\u00e9 paired the piece with custom Malone Souliers heels as well as vintage earrings and an anklet both from Tiffany & Co.

Fendi

Also while in Toronto, the singer traded her layered mini dress for a dazzling custom Fendi gown. The piece is a riff on a similar look from the brand\u2019s spring/summer 2021 couture collection and features a daring slit as well as crystal embroidery meant to imitate the appearance of honeycombs. She rounded out the look with another pair of clear heels and statement tassel earrings.

Ivy Park
@beyonce

Leave it Beyonc\u00e9 to make comouflage cool. During the Toronto stop of her tour, the singer wore a fully patterned ensemble from her brand Ivy Park. The look featured a cropped jacket, over-the-knee boots and a plunging bodysuit.

Balmain
@beyonce

For the final stop of the European leg, Beyonc\u00e9 went with a slew of sequined and silver ensembles while performing in Warsaw, Poland. This look, by Balmain\u2019s Olivier Rousteing, featured a dramatic bodice that cascaded down her side as well as a daring slit at the skirt. The singer rounded out her look with velvet gloves and a pair of Manolo Blahnik heels.

Richard Quinn
@beyonce

While Beyonc\u00e9 has had some pretty avant-garde outfits, this Richard Quinn number may be her most \u201cAlien Superstar\u201d yet. The look featured legging-style pants with large crystal embellishments as well as a peplum-inspired top finished with similar adornments. However, the focal point of the ensemble is certainly the UFO-like headpiece that obscured everything but the singer\u2019s eyes.

Daily Paper
@beyonce

Outfitting an entire crew and Beyonc\u00e9 is certainly no small feat, but global brand Daily Paper seemed to be up for the task. During the "Opulence" section of her concert in Warsaw, Beyonc\u00e9 donned an embellished black jumpsuit and reflective track jacket from the brand\u2014which she paired with knee-high boots and one of her signature top hats. In addition to Beyonc\u00e9\u2019s look, Daily Paper designed over 100 custom tracksuits for her crew and dancers, mostly in silver reflective nylon.

Carolina Herrera
@beyonce

Just one night after sporting a similar hooded piece while in Paris, Beyonc\u00e9 went with another veiled look, this time, for her concert in Hamburg, Germany. The ensemble is designed by Carolina Herrera creative director Wes Gordon and features a plunging bodysuit, sheer red tights, and a silk hood that connects at the head and arms. Of course, the singer also had on her signature opera gloves and glitzy earrings to round out the look.

Ivy Park
@weareivypark

Again in Hamburg, the singer chose a look from Ivy Park\u2014one of a wider selection of pieces from an upcoming collection between her brand and Adidas. Naturally, backup dancer\u2019s leotards matched her ruched mini dress and knee-high boots.

Ferragamo

Ferragamo\u2019s creative director Maximillian Davis designed this red glittering gown for the singer\u2019s show in Amsterdam. In honor of Juneteenth, Davis was one of several Black designers that Beyonc\u00e9 wore throughout the show.

Balmain
Kevin Mazur/WireImage/Getty Images

This robo-couture custom Balmain look featured silver-plated detailing that paneled the singer\u2019s bodysuit. She paired the piece, which drifted into gloves, with a pair of knee-high boots.

\u201cIn the industry where we have to all fight, I want to thank [Beyonc\u00e9\u2019s] support last night [to] all the Black designers that had created their own space in this tough industry,\u201d Balmain designer Olivier Rousteing said. \u201cThis was the celebration.\u201d

Off-White
Kevin Mazur/WireImage/Getty Images

This is the second all-red Off-White look worn by Beyonc\u00e9 during her tour. Her second version, however, featured a shortened silhouette and an accompanying top hat that was designed by the brand\u2019s art and image director Ibrahim Kamara.

Balmain
@beyonce

For her second Balmain look in Amsterdam, Beyonc\u00e9 went with another iteration of the bee-inspired catsuits we\u2019ve seen repeatedly on her tour thus far. This time, she paired the ensemble with a coordinating top hat rather than her infamous insect-like antena.

LaQuan Smith
@beyonce

New York designer LaQuan Smith crafted this silver, shattered glass bodysuit for the singer\u2019s Amsterdam stop. She paired the plunging piece with an equally as disco-worthy cape and heels.

Feben

London-based brand Feben outfitted Beyonc\u00e9 in a color-blocked catsuit. \u201cThank you for inviting me into your world,\u201d the designer wrote on Instagram. \u201cWhat an incredible moment to be a part of, and a pivotal one for myself, and my inner child. It means the world to be supported and seen as a Black female designer in the industry.\u201d

Ferragamo
@beyonce

This deep silver mini dress was the second look from Ferragamo the singer wore in Amsterdam. The look featured ruched detailing that drifted into a train and above-knee boots.

Ivy Park

While Beyonc\u00e9 has, seemingly, unlimited access to a never-ending roster of designers, she went with her own label Ivy Park for this pink look in Amsterdam\u2014and rightly so. Designed by the star herself, the piece featured daring slits, opera-style gloves, and a halter neckline.

\u201cI started designing this collection over a year ago,\u201d she said on Instagram. \u201cI was so engulfed in all things Renaissance and was inspired by Studio 54, Bob Mackie, and the disco era.\u201d

In Amsterdam, the singer went with a custom Gucci corseted leotard. The glitzy piece featured sheer detailing and draped crystal fringe that fell across the bodice area.

Iris van Herpen
@irisvanherpen

Naturally, Dutch designer Iris van Herpen was a standout of Beyonc\u00e9\u2019s wardrobe for her first night in Amsterdam. The custom look, which took over 700 hours to make, featured a flowing train paired with a sculptural mini dress.

Georges Hobeika

Yes, you can always count on Beyonc\u00e9 to wear a form-fitting catsuit. But this one by Lebanese designer had a handful of eye-catching details. The bodice was composed of various strands of rhinestones and crystals and the sheer portion wrapped entirely around her body (even down to her boots).

Jacquemus
@beyonce

French designer Simon Porte Jacquemus is from Marseille, France so it\u2019s fitting that he outfitted the singer for her tour stop there. Jacquemus, who attended the concert, designed a form-ftting mini dress, boots, and gloves that featured disco ball-esque paillettes.

\u201c[Beyonc\u00e9] is the first singer I saw live in Marseille 15 years ago,\u201d he wrote on Instagram. \u201cI\u2019m so happy and proud. What a night in Provence, means a lot.\u201d

Alberta Ferretti
@albertaferretti

This custom gown by Alebrta Ferretti has an embroidered leotard and a gold draped train that cascades down the singer\u2019s side. Beyonc\u00e9 wore the eye-catching piece with matching knee-high boots and black opera gloves (which have been a running theme in many of her looks throughout the tour thus far).

Stella McCartney
@beyonce

Beyonc\u00e9 went with a sparkling, disco-inspired Stella McCartney dress and stirrup leggings for her concert in Barcelona, Spain. The custom look was made of environmentally friendly materials such as silver lead-free crystals.

\u201cIt is a life moment to dress someone as iconic and inspiring as Beyonc\u00e9\u2014a visionary pioneer, disruptor, and artist who has worked tirelessly to make the world a better place,\u201d the British designer said. A pair of clear Amina Muaddi heels rounded out the ensemble.

Fendi
@beyonce

The star wore a custom Fendi leather intarsia catsuit for her show in the Spanish city. It was paired with over-the-knee boots, matching gloves, and an upcycled fur cape inspired by illustrations by Antonio Lopez as seen in Fendi\u2019s spring 2022 collection.

Mary Katrantzou

For her fifth and final show in London, Beyonc\u00e9 wore a custom Mary Katrantzou surrealist mini dress with black and gold detailing. The look, meant to resemble a perfume bottle, also featured a custom Stephen Jones bottle top headpiece, latex boots, and gloves.

Robert Wun

The 41-year-old singer opted for a dramatic \u201cBlack Blossom\u201d Robert Wun look. The form-fitting ensemble featured a plunging blazer accented by ruffled sleeves and asymmetrical pleated detailing.

Andreas Kronthaler for Vivienne Westwood

Beyonc\u00e9 again went with another British label for her third London show, this time a custom Andreas Kronthaler for Vivienne Westwood look. The mini latex dress features corset-style detailing and sheer spiral sleeves.

Roksanda

Beyonc\u00e9 wore a custom royal blue Roksanda number for her London show. The piece is a riff of a similar dress from the brand\u2019s fall/winter 2023 collection.

Alexander McQueen
Kevin Mazur/WireImage/Getty Images

Alexander McQueen has been a staple of Beyonc\u00e9\u2019s Renaissance wardrobe thus far. Here, she wore a custom deep red embroidered dress with coordinating boots and opera gloves\u2014an iteration of a similar look from their fall/winter 2023 collection.

Paco Rabanne

The signature silver paillettes of Paco Rabanne fit perfectly into the visual aesthetic of Renaissance, so its no surprise the star opted for a piece from the brand. She wore a glitzy custom gown for her show in Paris.

Brandon Blackwood

The 41-year-old looked ethereal in a custom light blue gown by New York brand Brandon Blackwood. She paired the off-the-shoulder number with coordinating opera gloves and silver jewels.

Valentino

Ditching the catsuits that fill the latter half of her concert, Beyonc\u00e9 has chosen a series of stunning gowns for the opening segment of her show. Here, she wore a white Valentino dress complete with a train and coordinating opera gloves.

David Koma

The singer was worn several looks from London-based brand David Koma over the course of her tour\u2014one of them being this asymmetrical mini dress that features glittering fringe and wide shoulders.

Loewe

The star has worn a silver two piece set from Loewe for several of her tour stops. On top of the long sleeve, she layered a molded breastplate and rounded out the look will silver boots.

Dolce & Gabbana

This custom Dolce & Gabbana bodysuit is one of many bee-themed looks that Beyonc\u00e9 has worn (there\u2019s a reason she\u2019s referred to as the Queen B after all). The piece features black and yellow embroidery as well as coordinating opera gloves.

Balmain

Beyonc\u00e9 continued her longstanding relationship with Balmain\u2019s Olivier Rousteing\u2014here, she wore an silver asymmetrical mini dress, thigh high boots, and wraparound sunglasses.

Cowboy Carter (also referred to as Act II: Cowboy Carter) is the upcoming eighth studio album by the American singer Beyonc\u00e9, scheduled to be released on March 29, 2024, via Parkwood Entertainment and Columbia Records. It is the second installment of Beyonc\u00e9's three-act project, following Act I: Renaissance (2022). It was announced on February 11, 2024, following a teaser in a Verizon commercial aired during Super Bowl LVIII that starred Beyonc\u00e9 and actor Tony Hale. Beyonc\u00e9 also announced the album's release date via social media and simultaneously released the album's two lead singles: \"Texas Hold 'Em\" and \"16 Carriages\". The album is reported to be influenced by country music.[2]\n

\n

Background[edit]

\n

Beyonc\u00e9 first released country music with the track \"Daddy Lessons\" on Lemonade (2016).[3] A remix featuring the Chicks was released as a promotional single on November 2, 2016,[4] and they performed the song together at the 50th annual Country Music Association Awards. Some country music fans criticized Beyonc\u00e9's attendance due to, as Alex Abad-Santos of Vox wrote, \"Beyonc\u00e9's liberal-leaning politics [...] some of it was rooted in her perceived lack of country cred, and some of it was downright racist.\"[5] The Country Music Association (CMA) deleted promotional posts about Beyonc\u00e9's performance, which caused online backlash as many concluded this was done to mitigate criticism. The CMA denied such motivation, stating that Beyonc\u00e9's team had requested the removal of a promotional clip before the performance and that they provided their own documentation of the performance.[6] In December 2016, Lemonade received nine Grammy nominations, but \"Daddy Lessons\" was allegedly rejected by the Recording Academy's country music committee.[7]\n

\n

Beyonc\u00e9 was interested in country; I think she had a really bad experience at a country music award show, and she wanted to research its African-American roots. She discovered that 50 per cent of cowboys were Black, in the 19th and early 20th century, and country music, of course, has been largely appropriated. She wanted to reappropriate Americana and country music from a Black perspective, hence the cowboys and why they are wearing red. They are her eliding those two ideas of redlining in those towns and the cowboys. She made a series of extraordinary films during lockdown [not] out yet.

\u2014 Es Devlin speaking to British Vogue in November 2023.[8]
\n

In August of 2021, Beyonc\u00e9 told Harper's Bazaar that her \"Ivy Park Rodeo\" collection was inspired by growing up in Texas and American history, specifically the \"overlooked history of the American Black cowboy\".[9] In an exclusive with The Houston Chronicle, she said \"after understanding where the word \u2018cowboy\u2019 came from, I realized how much of the Black, brown and Native cowboy stories are missing in American history.\"[10]\n

\n
\n
\n

I grew up going to the Houston rodeo every year. It was this amazing diverse and multicultural experience where there was something for every member of the family, including great performances, Houston-style fried Snickers, and fried turkey legs. One of my inspirations came from the overlooked history of the American Black cowboy. Many of them were originally called cowhands, who experienced great discrimination and were often forced to work with the worst, most temperamental horses. They took their talents and formed the Soul Circuit. Through time, these Black rodeos showcased incredible performers and helped us reclaim our place in western history and culture.\n

\n
\n

Between 2020 and 2024, Dolly Parton said on multiple occasions that she would like Beyonc\u00e9 to cover her song \"Jolene\". She first said that \"nobody's ever had a really big hit record on [Jolene],\" in a December 5, 2020 interview with The Big Issue. She said that even though \"the song has been recorded worldwide over 400 times in lots of different languages, by lots of different bands, [she'd] always hoped somebody might do [it] someday, someone like Beyonc\u00e9.\"[11] On March 10, 2022, when asked by Trevor Noah on The Daily Show about her 2020 statement, she said \"I would just love to hear 'Jolene' done in just a big way, kind of like how Whitney did my 'I Will Always Love You', just someone that can take my little songs and make them like powerhouses. That would be a marvellous day in my life if she ever does do 'Jolene'.\"[12] After publicly showing her support for Beyonc\u00e9's 2024 venture into country in February[13], on March 8, 2024, in an interview with Knox News for the 2024 season opening of Dollywood, Parton said \"I think she's recorded 'Jolene' and I think it's probably gonna be on her country album, which I'm very excited about...\"[14][15]\n

\n

Promotion and release[edit]

\n

The album forms the second installment of a trilogy that Beyonc\u00e9 recorded throughout the COVID-19 pandemic, which she described as her most creative period.[16] The first act, Renaissance (2022), is primarily a house and disco album that highlights and celebrates the Black progenitors of dance music, leading some to believe that each album of the trilogy would aim to reclaim a genre that was first pioneered by Black artists.[17]\n

The album was announced during Super Bowl LVIII. Verizon showed a Super Bowl commercial, titled \"Can't B Broken\", in which Beyonc\u00e9 tried to \"break the Internet\" through increasingly outlandish means, such as releasing a jazz saxophone record, performing on top of the Las Vegas Sphere, building an AI version of herself, launching a Barbie doll collection, announcing her candidacy for a fictional political position, and flying into space for a performance.[18] After all of the ideas were unsuccessful, Beyonc\u00e9 concluded the commercial by remarking \"Okay, they ready. Drop the new music\".\n

After the commercial aired, Beyonc\u00e9 released the teaser video for Act II on Instagram.[19] Directed by British artist and filmmaker Nadia Lee Cohen, the video pays homage to Paris, Texas (1984), references border blasters and features Chuck Berry's 1955 track \"Maybellene\".[20][21] The same day, the artist's official website was updated to announce her eighth studio album, with the placeholder name Act II, scheduled for release on March 29.[22] Subsequently, the album's first two songs, \"Texas Hold 'Em\" and \"16 Carriages\", were simultaneously released on digital download and streaming.[23][24]\n

On March 12, 2024, she announced the album would be titled Cowboy Carter,[25] and listed album merchandise of limited-edition CDs, T-shirts and vinyl variants in red, white, blue and standard black.[26]\n

@beyonce

Though this custom Valdrin Sahiti bodysuit followed a similar silhouette to many of Beyonc\u00e9\u2019s form-fitting looks, its dramatic tulle shoulders and flowing train certainly spiced things up a bit. The singer rounded out the look with a pair of cat eye sunglasses and PVC heels by Mach and Mach.

Missoni
@beyonce

Unlike her Marni look which was heavy on mixed metals, this custom Missoni ensemble was pure silver.

Alberta Ferretti
@beyonce

Alberta Ferretti has been a constant throughout Beyonc\u00e9\u2019s Renaissance wardrobe. So, naturally, the singer chose a scarlet bodysuit, complete with a sculpted bodice and plenty of crystals, for her Atlanta show.

Gaurav Gupta
Kevin Mazur/WireImage/Getty Images

The star opted for another Gaurav Gupta look, this one, from the brand\u2019s fall/winter 2023 collection. Like her previous ensemble from the brand, the green dress featured an array of smartly placed cut-outs and a thigh-high slit.

Carolina Herrera
@beyonce

If this Carolina Herrera ensemble looks familiar, that\u2019s because Beyonc\u00e9 previously wore a red version earlier on in her tour. Like the last wear, this one was made complete with a dramatic headpiece and opera-style gloves. The star also tied in a pair of Ala\u00efa cabaret sandals, a pari she\u2019s taken a liking to throughout her time on the road.

Lapointe
@beyonce

The star chose a Barbie pink look from Lapointe during her show in Charlotte, North Carolina. The curve-hugging mini dress featured a one-side feather sleeve and a draped train at the side. Of course, she had to add in a pair of sequined knee-high boots and fringe sunglasses from A-Morir for good measure.

Gaurav Gupta
@gauravgupta

This Gaurav Gupta bodysuit may be Beyonc\u00e9\u2019s most detailed one to date\u2014the piece featured elaborate infinity draping that cascaded throughout the look. She then paired the top half with garter-inspired crystal leggings that transitioned into boots.

Ralph Lauren

Gucci
@beyonce

Tinsel chic? Beyonc\u00e9\u2019s latest custom Gucci look (a fringe bodysuit, sculptural hat, boots, and overcoat) turned heads for all the right reasons at her D.C. show.

Nina Ricci

Beyonc\u00e9 looked straight out of a sci-fi thriller in this custom Demobaza look which featured a color blocked bodysuit, harness, and white boots.

Jean Paul Gaultier
@beyonce

Jean Paul Gaultier is known for their trippy prints, so it\u2019s no surprise then that the bending motif was the focal point of this custom bodysuit.

Valentino
Courtesy of Parkwood

The debate is still out on whether this look should be classified as Barbie pink or Valentino pink. Regardless, Beyonc\u00e9 nailed this custom look from the Italian brand. She paired the form-fitting bodysuit (which was layered under a cape) with knee-high boots and feathered shield sunglasses.

Marc Jacobs
@marcjacobs

For her New York show, Beyonc\u00e9, fittingly, wore one of the city\u2019s favorite designers. Her custom Marc Jacobs gown featured a dramatic slit, bending black and white stripes, and a slew of dazzling Swarovski crystals.

Alexander McQueen
@beyonce

This Alexander McQueen may look familiar. The singer wore a similar version just a few stops ago in Minneapolis, Minnesota. This one, however, featured a slightly different color way in bronze and silver and was accented by a dramatic reflective cape.

Georges Hobeika
@georgeshobeika

The singer looked ethereal in this semi-sheer Georges Hobeika gown. The piece featured delicate embroidery throughout and a strappy neckline at the bodice. Her sheer headpiece was crafted with 3D embroidered flowers and her opera gloves were trimmed with train-like pieces of fabric.

Ivy Park

Beyonc\u00e9 donned another custom Ivy Park look for her New Jersey show. This one kept up the camouflage theme with another pair of slouchy knee-high boots. Instead of a form-fitting bodysuit like she\u2019s worn in the past, her jersey-style long sleeve was decidedly more casual (yet still packed a punch with crystal embroidery). Blue Ivy had on a matching jersey, too.

Kevin Mazur/WireImage/Getty Images

The singer packed on the sparkle in this Miu Miu look during her stop in East Rutherford, New Jersey. The tank and cut-off shorts were embroidered with rhinestones and crystals as were her fringed knee-high boots, naturally.

Louis Vuitton
@louisvuitton

Louis Vuitton\u2019s newly appointed creative director of menswear, Pharrell Williams, designed this glittering catsuit for Beyonc\u00e9\u2019s Detroit, Michigan concert. The two have quite the history as long time friends and collaborators\u2014Williams has produced songs for Beyonc\u00e9 in the past and she recently attended his debut runway show for the French brand earlier this year. The custom bodysuit put a spin on the brand\u2019s famed Damier check through glittering crystal embroidery.

Beyonc\u00e9 traded her tour wardrobe of silver and gold for some Tiffany blue while in Chicago, Illinois. The look was created in partnership with designer Giles Deacon and featured a sculptural bodice and sheer organza gloves. She paired the dress with, of course, a custom Tiffany & Co. Twister Collar Necklace.

Beyonc\u00e9\u2019s Acne Studios ensemble may have nailed the Barbie pink look, but it certainly did not disappoint during her Minneapolis show. She paired her reflective mini shorts and bustier with an oversized jacket and sparkling thigh-high boots.

Schiaparelli
@beyonce

Beyonc\u00e9\u2019s Renaissance wardrobe isn\u2019t just limited to bodysuits\u2014she\u2019s also been incorporating dramatic ensembles like this custom Schiaparelli mini dress and shawl. The strapless piece featured white feathered detailing which she paired with simple Dolce & Gabbana heels.

Balmain
@beyonce

Balmain has been a focal point of Beyonc\u00e9\u2019s Renaissance wardrobe and things got taken up a notch during her stop in Minneapolis. The singer opted for a sculptural latex bodysuit that she accessorized with knee-high boots, shield sunglasses, and a brimmed top hat.

Marine Serre
@beyonce

Beyonc\u00e9 stunned in silver with this custom Marine Serre look. The star wore a fitted bodysuit, complete with the brand\u2019s signature moon motif, as well as chain undergarments layered on top. She added in a brimmed hat and silver boots for good measure, too.

Alexander McQueen
@alexandermcqueen

This custom Alexander McQueen bodysuit is a riff on a similar look from the brand\u2019s fall/winter 2016 collection. The semi-sheer piece features sequin horse embroidery and a tulle base.

Diesel

It\u2019s no secret that Beyonc\u00e9 has been all in on the bodysuit style throughout her tour. But this custom Diesel look for her Louisville, Kentucky show may just be one of her most unique styles thus far. The trompe l\u2019oeil look featured a print mimicking denim and grey crystals throughout. And to round things out, the piece\u2019s boots and gloves were connected to the main portion of the ensemble.

Raisa Vanessa

Pulling out the sequins in Louisville, Beyonc\u00e9 dazzled in this custom mini dress by Raisa Vanessa. The dress took nearly six months to make and featured a plunging neckline and two slits on either side. The singer rounded out the look with glittering knee-high boots and goggle-style sunglasses.

Dsquared2
@dsquared2

Beyonc\u00e9 donned this Dsquared2 bodysuit\u2014complete with layers of dazzling embellishments and a plunging neckline\u2014for the opening act of her Louisville concert.

Alexander McQueen
Courtesy of Alexander McQueen

Alexander McQueen was a staple throughout Beyonc\u00e9\u2019s European performances, so it\u2019s no surprise that she\u2019s returned to the British brand when stateside. During her Nashville concert, the singer wore a custom bodysuit, gloves, and boots complete with crystal embroidery. She stopped it off with a UFO-shaped chapeau appropriate for an alien superstar. The outfit seemed to be a shorter version of a look she wore earlier on in the tour.

David Koma
@beyonce

The singer opted for another dazzling custom look from David Koma. Unlike her previous printed mini dress from the British designer, this red number had plenty of sequins throughout as well as an asymmetrical train detail. She rounded things out with patent leather boots, a ruby belt, and pendant necklace.

Ivy Park
@beyonce

The McQueen look wasn\u2019t the only repurposed silhouette Beyonc\u00e9 wore in Nashville. She opted for a pink Ivy Park jacket, halter top, and shorts that are, again, a shorter iteration of a similar bodysuit she previously wore in Europe. She also mixed in a pair of custom Tiffany & Co. sunglasses and Gedebe boots to make things even more Renaissance worthy.

Valentino
@beyonce

Beyonc\u00e9 certainly leaned into some drama (and disco) with this custom Valentino look in Philadelphia. The focal point was the seemingly never-ending sequined train that connected to the pouf bodice of the bodysuit. She paired the flashy piece with coordinating boots, and towards the end of the show, she flew above the crowd in this look while mounted on a horse.

Givenchy
@beyonce

The singer mixed in some more sequins in Philadelphia with this custom Givenchy mini dress. The piece featured intricately placed cut-outs as well as fringe throughout the dress. She rounded things out with strappy heels and sheer black opera gloves. She, of course, also had on diamonds from Tiffany & Co. in the form of a ring, drop earrings, and a tennis bracelet.

Ivy Park
@beyonce

Beyonc\u00e9 went with another camouflage look from her label Ivy Park, this one a two-piece set. The crop top had built in sleeve-gloves and the mini shorts also featured chaps-like detailing that extended into her boots.

Tiffany & Co.
@beyonce

Beyonc\u00e9 has been wearing plenty of Tiffany & Co. jewelry throughout her tour, but she took it to another level for her first North American stop in Toronto, Canada. The singer donned a dazzling bespoke mini dress from the brand complete with layers of chains and stones. The mesh look of the piece was inspired by the designs of Elsa Peretti and took nearly 200 hours to make. Beyonc\u00e9 paired the piece with custom Malone Souliers heels as well as vintage earrings and an anklet both from Tiffany & Co.

Fendi
Courtesy of Fendi

Also while in Toronto, the singer traded her layered mini dress for a dazzling custom Fendi gown. The piece is a riff on a similar look from the brand\u2019s spring/summer 2021 couture collection and features a daring slit as well as crystal embroidery meant to imitate the appearance of honeycombs. She rounded out the look with another pair of clear heels and statement tassel earrings.

Ivy Park
@beyonce

Leave it Beyonc\u00e9 to make comouflage cool. During the Toronto stop of her tour, the singer wore a fully patterned ensemble from her brand Ivy Park. The look featured a cropped jacket, over-the-knee boots and a plunging bodysuit.

Balmain
@beyonce

For the final stop of the European leg, Beyonc\u00e9 went with a slew of sequined and silver ensembles while performing in Warsaw, Poland. This look, by Balmain\u2019s Olivier Rousteing, featured a dramatic bodice that cascaded down her side as well as a daring slit at the skirt. The singer rounded out her look with velvet gloves and a pair of Manolo Blahnik heels.

Richard Quinn
@beyonce

While Beyonc\u00e9 has had some pretty avant-garde outfits, this Richard Quinn number may be her most \u201cAlien Superstar\u201d yet. The look featured legging-style pants with large crystal embellishments as well as a peplum-inspired top finished with similar adornments. However, the focal point of the ensemble is certainly the UFO-like headpiece that obscured everything but the singer\u2019s eyes.

Daily Paper
@beyonce

Outfitting an entire crew and Beyonc\u00e9 is certainly no small feat, but global brand Daily Paper seemed to be up for the task. During the "Opulence" section of her concert in Warsaw, Beyonc\u00e9 donned an embellished black jumpsuit and reflective track jacket from the brand\u2014which she paired with knee-high boots and one of her signature top hats. In addition to Beyonc\u00e9\u2019s look, Daily Paper designed over 100 custom tracksuits for her crew and dancers, mostly in silver reflective nylon.

Carolina Herrera
@beyonce

Just one night after sporting a similar hooded piece while in Paris, Beyonc\u00e9 went with another veiled look, this time, for her concert in Hamburg, Germany. The ensemble is designed by Carolina Herrera creative director Wes Gordon and features a plunging bodysuit, sheer red tights, and a silk hood that connects at the head and arms. Of course, the singer also had on her signature opera gloves and glitzy earrings to round out the look.

Ivy Park
@weareivypark

Again in Hamburg, the singer chose a look from Ivy Park\u2014one of a wider selection of pieces from an upcoming collection between her brand and Adidas. Naturally, backup dancer\u2019s leotards matched her ruched mini dress and knee-high boots.

Ferragamo
Kevin Mazur/WireImage/Getty Images

Ferragamo\u2019s creative director Maximillian Davis designed this red glittering gown for the singer\u2019s show in Amsterdam. In honor of Juneteenth, Davis was one of several Black designers that Beyonc\u00e9 wore throughout the show.

Balmain
Kevin Mazur/WireImage/Getty Images

This robo-couture custom Balmain look featured silver-plated detailing that paneled the singer\u2019s bodysuit. She paired the piece, which drifted into gloves, with a pair of knee-high boots.

\u201cIn the industry where we have to all fight, I want to thank [Beyonc\u00e9\u2019s] support last night [to] all the Black designers that had created their own space in this tough industry,\u201d Balmain designer Olivier Rousteing said. \u201cThis was the celebration.\u201d

Off-White
Kevin Mazur/WireImage/Getty Images

This is the second all-red Off-White look worn by Beyonc\u00e9 during her tour. Her second version, however, featured a shortened silhouette and an accompanying top hat that was designed by the brand\u2019s art and image director Ibrahim Kamara.

Balmain
@beyonce

For her second Balmain look in Amsterdam, Beyonc\u00e9 went with another iteration of the bee-inspired catsuits we\u2019ve seen repeatedly on her tour thus far. This time, she paired the ensemble with a coordinating top hat rather than her infamous insect-like antena.

LaQuan Smith
@beyonce

New York designer LaQuan Smith crafted this silver, shattered glass bodysuit for the singer\u2019s Amsterdam stop. She paired the plunging piece with an equally as disco-worthy cape and heels.

Feben
Kevin Mazur/WireImage/Getty Images

London-based brand Feben outfitted Beyonc\u00e9 in a color-blocked catsuit. \u201cThank you for inviting me into your world,\u201d the designer wrote on Instagram. \u201cWhat an incredible moment to be a part of, and a pivotal one for myself, and my inner child. It means the world to be supported and seen as a Black female designer in the industry.\u201d

Ferragamo
@beyonce

This deep silver mini dress was the second look from Ferragamo the singer wore in Amsterdam. The look featured ruched detailing that drifted into a train and above-knee boots.

Ivy Park
Kevin Mazur/WireImage for Parkwood

While Beyonc\u00e9 has, seemingly, unlimited access to a never-ending roster of designers, she went with her own label Ivy Park for this pink look in Amsterdam\u2014and rightly so. Designed by the star herself, the piece featured daring slits, opera-style gloves, and a halter neckline.

\u201cI started designing this collection over a year ago,\u201d she said on Instagram. \u201cI was so engulfed in all things Renaissance and was inspired by Studio 54, Bob Mackie, and the disco era.\u201d

Gucci

In Amsterdam, the singer went with a custom Gucci corseted leotard. The glitzy piece featured sheer detailing and draped crystal fringe that fell across the bodice area.

Iris van Herpen
@irisvanherpen

Naturally, Dutch designer Iris van Herpen was a standout of Beyonc\u00e9\u2019s wardrobe for her first night in Amsterdam. The custom look, which took over 700 hours to make, featured a flowing train paired with a sculptural mini dress.

Georges Hobeika

Yes, you can always count on Beyonc\u00e9 to wear a form-fitting catsuit. But this one by Lebanese designer had a handful of eye-catching details. The bodice was composed of various strands of rhinestones and crystals and the sheer portion wrapped entirely around her body (even down to her boots).

Jacquemus
@beyonce

French designer Simon Porte Jacquemus is from Marseille, France so it\u2019s fitting that he outfitted the singer for her tour stop there. Jacquemus, who attended the concert, designed a form-ftting mini dress, boots, and gloves that featured disco ball-esque paillettes.

\u201c[Beyonc\u00e9] is the first singer I saw live in Marseille 15 years ago,\u201d he wrote on Instagram. \u201cI\u2019m so happy and proud. What a night in Provence, means a lot.\u201d

Alberta Ferretti
@albertaferretti

This custom gown by Alebrta Ferretti has an embroidered leotard and a gold draped train that cascades down the singer\u2019s side. Beyonc\u00e9 wore the eye-catching piece with matching knee-high boots and black opera gloves (which have been a running theme in many of her looks throughout the tour thus far).

Stella McCartney
@beyonce

Beyonc\u00e9 went with a sparkling, disco-inspired Stella McCartney dress and stirrup leggings for her concert in Barcelona, Spain. The custom look was made of environmentally friendly materials such as silver lead-free crystals.

\u201cIt is a life moment to dress someone as iconic and inspiring as Beyonc\u00e9\u2014a visionary pioneer, disruptor, and artist who has worked tirelessly to make the world a better place,\u201d the British designer said. A pair of clear Amina Muaddi heels rounded out the ensemble.

Fendi
@beyonce

The star wore a custom Fendi leather intarsia catsuit for her show in the Spanish city. It was paired with over-the-knee boots, matching gloves, and an upcycled fur cape inspired by illustrations by Antonio Lopez as seen in Fendi\u2019s spring 2022 collection.

Mary Katrantzou

For her fifth and final show in London, Beyonc\u00e9 wore a custom Mary Katrantzou surrealist mini dress with black and gold detailing. The look, meant to resemble a perfume bottle, also featured a custom Stephen Jones bottle top headpiece, latex boots, and gloves.

Robert Wun

The 41-year-old singer opted for a dramatic \u201cBlack Blossom\u201d Robert Wun look. The form-fitting ensemble featured a plunging blazer accented by ruffled sleeves and asymmetrical pleated detailing.

Andreas Kronthaler for Vivienne Westwood

Beyonc\u00e9 again went with another British label for her third London show, this time a custom Andreas Kronthaler for Vivienne Westwood look. The mini latex dress features corset-style detailing and sheer spiral sleeves.

Roksanda
Kevin Mazur/WireImage/Getty Images

Beyonc\u00e9 wore a custom royal blue Roksanda number for her London show. The piece is a riff of a similar dress from the brand\u2019s fall/winter 2023 collection.

Alexander McQueen
Kevin Mazur/WireImage/Getty Images

Alexander McQueen has been a staple of Beyonc\u00e9\u2019s Renaissance wardrobe thus far. Here, she wore a custom deep red embroidered dress with coordinating boots and opera gloves\u2014an iteration of a similar look from their fall/winter 2023 collection.

Paco Rabanne

The signature silver paillettes of Paco Rabanne fit perfectly into the visual aesthetic of Renaissance, so its no surprise the star opted for a piece from the brand. She wore a glitzy custom gown for her show in Paris.

Brandon Blackwood

The 41-year-old looked ethereal in a custom light blue gown by New York brand Brandon Blackwood. She paired the off-the-shoulder number with coordinating opera gloves and silver jewels.

Off-White
Kevin Mazur/WireImage/Getty Images

Beyonc\u00e9 chose a statement-making Off-White look for her London show. The red bodysuit features a bustier-style top and 40,000 red hotfix crystals throughout.

Valentino

Ditching the catsuits that fill the latter half of her concert, Beyonc\u00e9 has chosen a series of stunning gowns for the opening segment of her show. Here, she wore a white Valentino dress complete with a train and coordinating opera gloves.

David Koma

The singer was worn several looks from London-based brand David Koma over the course of her tour\u2014one of them being this asymmetrical mini dress that features glittering fringe and wide shoulders.

Loewe

The star has worn a silver two piece set from Loewe for several of her tour stops. On top of the long sleeve, she layered a molded breastplate and rounded out the look will silver boots.

Dolce & Gabbana

This custom Dolce & Gabbana bodysuit is one of many bee-themed looks that Beyonc\u00e9 has worn (there\u2019s a reason she\u2019s referred to as the Queen B after all). The piece features black and yellow embroidery as well as coordinating opera gloves.

Balmain

Beyonc\u00e9 continued her longstanding relationship with Balmain\u2019s Olivier Rousteing\u2014here, she wore an silver asymmetrical mini dress, thigh high boots, and wraparound sunglasses.

This trompe l\u2019oeil Loewe catsuit has become a fan favorite throughout the star\u2019s tour. The piece was custom made by the brand\u2019s creative director Jonathan Anderson and is a play on a similar dress that recently went down the runway.

Courr\u00e8ges
Kevin Mazur/Getty Images Entertainment/Getty Images

Beyonc\u00e9's Renaissance era is all about the glam.

Today, the pop star shared the official artwork for her highly anticipated seventh studio album, Renaissance, set to release on July 29. The stunning image features the singer wearing an ultra-sexy, custom diamond-encrusted harness (reminiscent of the crystal top she wore on her debut album cover for Dangerously in Love in 2003) by Nusi Quero while she sits atop a silver holographic horse. For her glam, she opted for '70s-inspired wavy tresses, a bold red lip, and sultry eye makeup.

The release of the album cover comes after Bey shared her first single off the project\u2014a house- and bounce-inspired track titled "Break My Soul" featuring New Orleans rapper Big Freedia\u2014last week. A video for the track is rumored to drop in the coming days.

Beyonc\u00e9 wrote a lengthy caption to fans (a rarity for the singer) about what the upcoming project represents for her on a personal level.

\"instagram\"View full post on Instagram

"Creating this album allowed me a place to dream and to find escape during a scary time for the world. It allowed me to feel free and adventurous in a time when little else was moving," she wrote. "My intention was to create a safe place, a place without judgment. A place to be free of perfectionism and overthinking. A place to scream, release, feel freedom. It was a beautiful journey of exploration. I hope you find joy in this music. I hope it inspires you to release the wiggle. Ha! And to feel as unique, strong, and sexy as you are."

Cowboy Carter (also referred to as Act II: Cowboy Carter) is the upcoming eighth studio album by the American singer Beyonc\u00e9, scheduled to be released on March 29, 2024, via Parkwood Entertainment and Columbia Records. It is the second installment of Beyonc\u00e9's three-act project, following Act I: Renaissance (2022). It was announced on February 11, 2024, following a teaser in a Verizon commercial aired during Super Bowl LVIII that starred Beyonc\u00e9 and actor Tony Hale. Beyonc\u00e9 also announced the album's release date via social media and simultaneously released the album's two lead singles: \"Texas Hold 'Em\" and \"16 Carriages\". The album is reported to be influenced by country music.[2]\n

\n

Background[edit]

\n

Beyonc\u00e9 first released country music with the track \"Daddy Lessons\" on Lemonade (2016).[3] A remix featuring the Chicks was released as a promotional single on November 2, 2016,[4] and they performed the song together at the 50th annual Country Music Association Awards. Some country music fans criticized Beyonc\u00e9's attendance due to, as Alex Abad-Santos of Vox wrote, \"Beyonc\u00e9's liberal-leaning politics [...] some of it was rooted in her perceived lack of country cred, and some of it was downright racist.\"[5] The Country Music Association (CMA) deleted promotional posts about Beyonc\u00e9's performance, which caused online backlash as many concluded this was done to mitigate criticism. The CMA denied such motivation, stating that Beyonc\u00e9's team had requested the removal of a promotional clip before the performance and that they provided their own documentation of the performance.[6] In December 2016, Lemonade received nine Grammy nominations, but \"Daddy Lessons\" was allegedly rejected by the Recording Academy's country music committee.[7]\n

Beyonc\u00e9 was interested in country; I think she had a really bad experience at a country music award show, and she wanted to research its African-American roots. She discovered that 50 per cent of cowboys were Black, in the 19th and early 20th century, and country music, of course, has been largely appropriated. She wanted to reappropriate Americana and country music from a Black perspective, hence the cowboys and why they are wearing red. They are her eliding those two ideas of redlining in those towns and the cowboys. She made a series of extraordinary films during lockdown [not] out yet.

In August of 2021, Beyonc\u00e9 told Harper's Bazaar that her \"Ivy Park Rodeo\" collection was inspired by growing up in Texas and American history, specifically the \"overlooked history of the American Black cowboy\".[9] In an exclusive with The Houston Chronicle, she said \"after understanding where the word \u2018cowboy\u2019 came from, I realized how much of the Black, brown and Native cowboy stories are missing in American history.\"[10]\n

I grew up going to the Houston rodeo every year. It was this amazing diverse and multicultural experience where there was something for every member of the family, including great performances, Houston-style fried Snickers, and fried turkey legs. One of my inspirations came from the overlooked history of the American Black cowboy. Many of them were originally called cowhands, who experienced great discrimination and were often forced to work with the worst, most temperamental horses. They took their talents and formed the Soul Circuit. Through time, these Black rodeos showcased incredible performers and helped us reclaim our place in western history and culture.\n

Between 2020 and 2024, Dolly Parton said on multiple occasions that she would like Beyonc\u00e9 to cover her song \"Jolene\". She first said that \"nobody's ever had a really big hit record on [Jolene],\" in a December 5, 2020 interview with The Big Issue. She said that even though \"the song has been recorded worldwide over 400 times in lots of different languages, by lots of different bands, [she'd] always hoped somebody might do [it] someday, someone like Beyonc\u00e9.\"[11] On March 10, 2022, when asked by Trevor Noah on The Daily Show about her 2020 statement, she said \"I would just love to hear 'Jolene' done in just a big way, kind of like how Whitney did my 'I Will Always Love You', just someone that can take my little songs and make them like powerhouses. That would be a marvellous day in my life if she ever does do 'Jolene'.\"[12] After publicly showing her support for Beyonc\u00e9's 2024 venture into country in February[13], on March 8, 2024, in an interview with Knox News for the 2024 season opening of Dollywood, Parton said \"I think she's recorded 'Jolene' and I think it's probably gonna be on her country album, which I'm very excited about...\"[14][15]\n

Promotion and release[edit]

The album forms the second installment of a trilogy that Beyonc\u00e9 recorded throughout the COVID-19 pandemic, which she described as her most creative period.[16] The first act, Renaissance (2022), is primarily a house and disco album that highlights and celebrates the Black progenitors of dance music, leading some to believe that each album of the trilogy would aim to reclaim a genre that was first pioneered by Black artists.[17]\n

The album was announced during Super Bowl LVIII. Verizon showed a Super Bowl commercial, titled \"Can't B Broken\", in which Beyonc\u00e9 tried to \"break the Internet\" through increasingly outlandish means, such as releasing a jazz saxophone record, performing on top of the Las Vegas Sphere, building an AI version of herself, launching a Barbie doll collection, announcing her candidacy for a fictional political position, and flying into space for a performance.[18] After all of the ideas were unsuccessful, Beyonc\u00e9 concluded the commercial by remarking \"Okay, they ready. Drop the new music\".\n

After the commercial aired, Beyonc\u00e9 released the teaser video for Act II on Instagram.[19] Directed by British artist and filmmaker Nadia Lee Cohen, the video pays homage to Paris, Texas (1984), references border blasters and features Chuck Berry's 1955 track \"Maybellene\".[20][21] The same day, the artist's official website was updated to announce her eighth studio album, with the placeholder name Act II, scheduled for release on March 29.[22] Subsequently, the album's first two songs, \"Texas Hold 'Em\" and \"16 Carriages\", were simultaneously released on digital download and streaming.[23][24]\n

On March 12, 2024, she announced the album would be titled Cowboy Carter,[25] and listed album merchandise of limited-edition CDs, T-shirts and vinyl variants in red, white, blue and standard black.[26]\n
