Act II coming soon.
Beyonce is saddling up into her Country era with the release of her new singles, “Texas Hold ‘Em” and “16 Carriages”.
After hinting new music in her cryptic Verizon commercial which aired during the Super Bowl, Beyonce broke the internet during the big game and unleashed the two records and announced her next album, Renaissance Act II.
“This ain’t Texas (Woo), ain’t no hold ’em (Hey) / So lay your cards down, down, down, down,” sings Bey on the uptempo, “Texas Hold ‘Em”. “So park your Lexus (Woo) and throw your keys up.”
Meanwhile, Mrs. Carter tones it down on the second single, “16 Carriages”. She sings, “At fifteen, the innocence was gone astray / Had to leave my home at an early age / I saw Mama praying, I saw Daddy grind / All my tender problems, had to leave behind.”
Renaissance Act II will be Beyonce eighth studio and solo album, which is scheduled for a release date of March 29. It is the follow-up to her 2022 chart-topping album, Renaissance.
