Beyoncé

Beyoncé’s latest music has won her yet another culture-shifting accolade, this time in unexplored territory.

Last week, the 42-year-old confirmed the long-held fan theory that the sequel to 2022’s Renaissance: act i will be a country album, as she released two new singles in that style.

On Monday (February 12), just one day after the songs ‘Texas Hold ‘Em and “16 Carriages” went live, a fan account dedicated to the Houston native shared that “Beyoncé is the FIRST black female artist to reach the top of Apple Music US Country chart in history. She is also the first female black artist to occupy the first and second position on the chart simultaneously.”
