Beyoncé recently revealed the inspiration behind her new album, Cowboy Carter
Beyoncé previously revealed what inspired the making of Cowboy Carter, which had been in the works for over five years. In a revealing Instagram post last week, Beyoncé thanked the BeyHive for their support of her recent hits and revealed what inspired her upcoming album. The Cuff It singer revealed that the album was not only five years in the making but that it was "created out of an event that I had years ago when I did not feel welcomed.”
She further wrote in the caption, "It was very clear that I wasn't. But, as a result of that encounter, I dove deeper into the history of country music and examined our extensive musical library. It's heartening to see how music can bring people together all around the world while also magnifying the voices of those who have dedicated their lives to educating others about our musical past."
Meanwhile, Beyoncé's new album, Act II: Cowboy Carter, is now available on streaming services to listen to.
