Tina Knowles has recently addressed the ongoing debate surrounding Beyoncé's venture into country music. The discussion arose after Beyoncé released two new singles during the Super Bowl, hinting at a possible country genre for her upcoming album. However, Tina Knowles was quick to assert that Beyoncé has always had a country influence in her music.
In a video shared on Instagram by Yvette Noel-Schure, Beyoncé's long-time advisor and friend, Tina showcased various magazine covers and outfits where Beyoncé had embraced the country aesthetic. Tina emphasized that growing up in Texas, they celebrated cowboy culture and understood that it did not belong exclusively to White culture. She pointed out that there is a significant black cowboy culture in Texas, which has always been a part of their lives.
