  1. The blessing is that DESPITE the Racism/ White Supremacy of those who gatekeep and discriminate against Black artists/ Black women on country radio , these artists WILL GAIN MORE SUPPORT, more fans, more sales and history WILL KNOW THEIR NAMES, without them needing the validation of Racist Man and Racist woman! 🎉🎉

  2. erasure of the black roots and not embracing black artists in the genre is intentional. I hope this opens more peoples eyes to see the way american history is manipulated to exclude and erase black Americans.

  3. We have to push these artists and support them ourselves. There's nothing else Beyonce has opened up a new market for the black country artists

  4. I guess Dollys version was to sweet ? It showed a woman talking to the other woman . Working it out threw talking. Beyonce did the same thing all other styles of music are doing. Adding violence as the chosen alternative…!

    Talking something out is above her understanding

  5. Beyonce and jz driving recklessly shooting at mail boxes …? Assuming the laws was called for domestic disturbance. Because Beyonce answers the door with a machine gun. And shoots at police….! So someone give Beyonce a award.! She brought the violence , the automatic rifles to shoot police.. The first Black woman of country music. She really showed the decency of being black….?

  6. Some of these comments are very mean spirited….Beyonce has an amazing voice and does have talent. So to say that she is not talented is just mean….. Secondly, Country music has roots in the enslaved Africans brought here by English settlers… please read and do your homework

  7. She changes a classic song so much she ruins it but her lemmings of fans will gobble it up while crying about “cultural appropriation” anytime a white perosn makes a hip hop song. Besides. Nobody is trying to steal Jay Z from Beyoncé. 😂

  8. I’m glad how Holly kept it real. The work doesn’t stop here. Beyoncé is projecting her light on these woman but it will all be in vain if the gatekeepers at radio/CMA awards etc. Continue to keep black woman out of the conversation. I love this moment Beyoncé is having it has put all eyes on the practices of country music and the gatekeeping. But the world will eventually move on but I do want us to get our foot of their NECKS! These woman deserve recognition and a fair fighting chance.

  9. Father Lord be magnified in our lives. We're grateful for the gift of life and the opportunity to come before ur throne of mercy to worship and adore you. So grateful are we oh Lird for being partakers of this new month… Jesus loves you so much and wants to have a relationship with you today. Give ur life to Jesus today and make him the Lord and personal saviour of ur life ❤
