Beyoncé recently announced her upcoming album titled 'Cowboy Carter' on her website. This country music project is the highly anticipated 'Act II' of her 2022 'Renaissance' album and is set to be released on March 29. Beyoncé has already dropped two singles from the album: '16 Carriages' and 'Texas Hold 'Em,' the latter of which topped the Hot 100 chart, making Beyoncé the first Black woman to achieve this feat in the country genre.
The homepage of Beyoncé's website showcases a photo of a horse saddle adorned with a patriotic sash reading 'Country Carter.' Additionally, fans can find limited edition CDs and vinyl variants in red, white, blue, and black on the merchandise page, each featuring alternative cover photos and box set editions with bonus tracks and T-shirts.
Following the success of her 'Renaissance' album, which was the first part of a planned three-act project, Beyoncé's new record is highly anticipated. The 'Renaissance' album predominantly featured dance and house music, paying tribute to the Black queer community and club culture.
Beyoncé's upcoming album comes on the heels of her record-breaking world tour, which grossed an impressive $579 million. She also released 'Renaissance: A Film by Beyoncé,' a documentary-concert film that provided a glimpse into her global tour. The film premiered in London, after which Beyoncé released the single 'My House,' a nod to her Houston roots.
Fans can pre-save 'Cowboy Carter' now and look forward to the album's release. Beyoncé's foray into country music is sure to captivate audiences and further solidify her status as a versatile and groundbreaking artist.
