Beyoncé is the first black woman to top the country music charts, and like you didn’t see that coming
Beyoncé has made music history being the first black woman to top Billboard’s Country Music chart with her single Texas Hold ‘Em debuting at number one. Even though it’s not strictly a country song.
After winning 32 Grammy awards across various genres, the artist is now trying her hand at country, perhaps not so big a surprise when you realise she is actually from Texas herself.
Texas Hold’Em was released simultaneously with the single 16 Carriages in a surprise album announcement during the Super Bowl ten days ago.
Additionally, Beyoncé is now the first woman to reach number one on both the Hot Country Songs and Hot R&B/Hip-Hop Songs since the lists began in 1958.
See the lazy video below which 11 days ago was first posted on YouTube yet has only achieved a lousy 7 million views. It’s so lazy, even record company insisted it only be dubbed an ‘official visualizer’.
Still, it’s more hits than your average porn video. Oh that’s right, it pretty much is a porn video.
