Beyoncé fans think ‘Act III’ could be a rock album – and here’s what they want from it
Beyoncé fans are speculating that her next album could see her venture down a rock route.The rumours about potential new directions for Bey arrive less than a week after ‘Cowboy Carter’ dropped – the second part of her ‘Renaissance’ trilogy, which saw her experiment with country music.The album has made countless headlines already, including for Beyoncé becoming the first Black woman to reach Number One on the US country chart with ‘Texas Hold ‘Em’, the first Black woman to score a Number One country album in the US charts, and gathering support from huge names including Michelle Obama and Paul McCartney.However, eager fans are already getting their eyes set on what part three will hold, and many are convinced it will see Beyoncé turn her focus to rock music.Rumours have run rampant for a while, although got a huge boost back in February after the singer donned an impressive mullet for a CR Fashion Book photo shoot. Since the release of ‘Cowboy Carter’, they have continued to expand – particularly after the ‘Lemonade’ singer sent flowers to Jack White, and personally thanked him for how much he influenced her on the new record.As highlighted by Complex, her nods towards the rock genre have also been seen throughout her career, including her close relationship with rock and roll legend Tina Turner, time working alongside Prince, and a surprise appearance at the Coldplay Super Bowl Halftime Show.Now, fans have begun sharing their thoughts on who Bey could collaborate with to make the album into a reality, and shared their suggestions for who could work with her sound.“Now if Beyonce’s does do a Rock album imma need to see Paramore on it,” one fan wrote on X, urging the singer to lock in a duet with Hayley Williams.

Jennifer Lopez rebrands tour as greatest hits show after low ticket sales and dates scrapped
Jennifer Lopez has quietly rebranded her tour as a greatest hits show following low ticket sales and some dates being cancelled.Originally, the tour was branded as her ‘This Is Me… Now’ tour, and announced back in February to coincide with the release of her album of the same name.Now, seemingly because of low ticket sales, the tour has been rebranded by the singer as ‘This Is Me… Live | The Greatest Hits’ – distancing itself from the new LP.As highlighted by outlets including Variety and The A.V. Club, the album struggled to find an audience upon its release, selling 14,000 copies in its first week and arriving at Number 38 on the Billboard 200 – the second of her nine studio albums to place outside the Top 10.The studio release was one part of a self-financed $20million multimedia project, including the tour and two films: This Is Me…Now: A Love Story, and a documentary titled The Greatest Love Story Never Told.The A.V. Club has claimed that the rebranding of the tour may come in a bid to boost ticket sales and stop fans from thinking that the live show will see Lopez predominantly sing tracks from the new LP.Lopez’s reps and Live Nation, which is producing the tour, have not publicly responded to Variety’s request for comment, and Live Nation’s site hasn’t been updated to reflect the tour’s name change.

Pharrell Williams and Chad Hugo in legal dispute over Neptunes name rights
Pharrell Williams and Chad Hugo, who previously formed the songwriting duo The Neptunes, are currently in a legal dispute over the group’s name.The lawsuit comes as Hugo accused Williams of “fraudulently” seeking sole control over the trademarks without consulting him.The Neptunes rose to prominence in the early 2000s, after both Williams and Hugo were friends in their childhood. They produced a run of hit tracks at the turn of the century including Gwen Stefani’s ‘Hollaback Girl’, Snoop Dogg’s ‘Drop It Like It’s Hot’, Justin Timberlake’s ‘Rock Your Body’ and Nelly’s ‘Hot in Herre’.They reached the peak of their success before Williams went on to become a solo musician, and they were inducted into the Songwriters Hall Of Fame in 2022.However, the two have run into legal action following Hugo filing a lawsuit against his songwriting partner last week at a federal tribunal – accusing Williams of attempting to unilaterally register trademarks for the Neptunes name.

Beyoncé gives Dolly Parton sole songwriting credit on ‘Jolene’
Beyoncé has given Dolly Parton full songwriting credits on her reimagined version of ‘Jolene’.The artist dropped her new country album ‘Cowboy Carter’ last week, which features a reinterpretation of Parton’s 1973 classic.While Parton’s version sees her plead with Jolene (“I’m begging of you please don’t take my man“) Beyoncé’s takes on a more empowered edge as she sings: “I’m warnin’ you, don’t come for my man.”The re-written lyrics seem to address Jay-Z cheating on her, as she refers to someone trying to “come between a family and a happy man”.While Beyoncé included several re-worked lyrics in her version of the song, the writing credits on streaming credit solely Parton, while Beyoncé is credited as the performer and producer.Parton has since given her verdict on Beyoncé’s cover, writing on Instagram: “Wow, I just heard Jolene. Beyoncé is giving that girl some trouble and she deserves it! Love, Dolly P.”It came after she previously gave Beyoncé’s country pivot her blessing, saying: “I’m a big fan of Beyoncé and very excited that she’s done a country album.” Ahead of Beyoncé’s version, Parton asked fans to stream her original track.Nancy Sinatra also expressed her admiration for Beyoncé after she sampled ‘These Boots Are Made For Walking’ on ‘Cowboy Carter’.Beyoncé unveiled the news of her new album a month ago, dropping two songs ‘Texas Hold ‘Em’ and ’16 Carriages’ in February and announcing the record in an ad at the Super Bowl.

She’s a beautiful girl and a great singer.”She also gave her blessing to Bey covering the track, adding: “We’ve kind of sent messages back and forth through the years.
