The Texas Hold ‘Em singer’s brave decision to pursue an unorthodox genre with her latest album Renaissance Act I drew mixed reviews. However, her most recent success in the genre has garnered major notice for the singer.
Beyoncé made history as the first black singer to reach the top of the country charts, and a music icon congratulated her right away.
Dolly Parton turned to Instagram to express her excitement, writing, “I’m a great fan of Beyoncé and really pleased that she’s done a country album. So, congratulations on your Billboard Hot Country number-one single.”
The statement follows Beyoncé’s announcement that the second section of her album, Renaissance Act II, would be country after the first part focused on only Dance tracks.
It is worthy to note here that previously the 9 to 5 singer also remarked that she would love if ‘someone like Beyoncé ’ would re-record Jolene and expressed admiration for her talent.
