Beyoncé’s ‘Cowboy Carter’ Features Miley Cyrus and Post Malone, With Guests Dolly Parton and Willie Nelson
variety.comThania Garcia New details about Beyoncé’s incoming “Cowboy Carter,” out tonight (March 29), have emerged following yesterday’s tracklist reveal.
The follow-up to Beyoncé’s “Renaissance” features Post Malone on the song “Levii’s Jeans,” while Miley Cyrus lends her vocals for “II Most Wanted.” In addition, Dolly Parton appears in an interlude, as does Willie Nelson and Linda Martell, the first black female solo artist to play the Grand Ole Opry.
The initial tracklist reveal, paired with an earlier comment from Parton teasing her participation in the album, confirmed that “Cowboy Carter” also featured a cover of Parton’s “Jolene.” Beyoncé’s rendition of the 1973 classic plays shortly after Parton’s interlude and is just one of the many homages on the record. “Cowboy Carter” also touts a cover of the Beatles’ “White Album” hit “Blackbird,” which Paul McCartney wrote to address the racial strife in the American South in the 1960s.
As for other guests, hip-hop and Americana singer Shaboozey is on the track “Spaghettii,” while country singer-songwriters Tanner Adell and Willie Jones also appear on the album.
