Lainey Wilson about Beyonce's II Most Wanted

Lainey Wilson, who was not only nominated for the Country Song of the Year category at the iHeartRadio Music Awards 2024 but has also become the winner, was interviewed by Billboard’s Tetris Kelly. 

During their conversation, Kelly had brought up the album, for which Wilson was really excited about and was ready to embrace as part of a country genre compilation. “You’re a very very busy woman but have you listened to Cowboy Carter?” the interviewer asked the singer of Heart Like a Truck, the song for which she won the 2024 iHeartRadio Music Award.

The beautiful lady in the most dashing attire and a cowboy hat replied in her Louisiana accent, “I have.”

The Wildflowers and Wild Horses singer went on to say, “I have been cranking it up. I don't think anybody in America and probably the world has cranked it up (that much).”

When asked about her favorite track on the album, she exclaimed, “I was listening to the Miley one earlier today, and I love that one.” She spoke of the track called II Most Wanted. 

While collaborating with great names from the country music industry and more, Beyonce also welcomed Miley Cyrus to jam along on the track, in her recently released album. 

Further talking to Billboard, the Smel Like Smoke singer spoke about how her heavy country accent will always make her stick to the genre she is in but still plans to step outside of her comfort zone.
