Beyoncé’s ‘Cowboy Carter’ Opens at No. 1 With the Year’s Biggest Sales: The pop superstar’s new album also reigns on Billboard’s Top Country Albums chart ...

nytimes.com/2024/04/08/arts/music/beyonce-cowboy-carter-billboard-chart.html

Quick Glance: Has Beyoncé Already Created Her Rock Album?

Beyoncé blends R&B, country, and hard-hitting guitars on Cowboy Carter, hinting at a potential rock album, with some arguing that this album could already fit that genre.

Tracks like the Prince-meets-Sheryl Crow pop-rock gem 'Bodyguard' and the spectacular Tina Turner-style anthem 'Ya Ya' support the notion, along with the proggy elements in the Jon Batiste-assisted opening track 'American Requiem'.

However, with 27 often wildly disparate tracks, Cowboy Carter is challenging to categorize. In a new episode of Rolling Stone Music Now, many tracks are discussed, speculating that Beyoncé's next album, the third in the trilogy, might be an official rock album.

One of the album's guest stars, country singer Willie Jones, expresses excitement about collaborating with one of his biggest inspirations on the ballad 'Just for Fun' in the episode.

Quick Glance: The Ed Sheeran Era: Transforming Music as a Relatable Megastar

Ed Sheeran's popularity stems from his talent, adaptability, and fanbase. He reshaped pop music through genre-blending and relatability, becoming a dominant force in the industry.

Quick Glance: Elton John and Bernie Taupin Honored at Gershwin Prize Ceremony with Metallica and Annie Lennox

The Library of Congress recognized the hit makers on Wednesday with an all-star concert - including Joni Mitchell, Maren Morris and many more - that will air on PBS in April.

Elton John and Bernie Taupin were recognized by the Library of Congress for their contributions to modern music at a gala where the songwriting duo was awarded the Gershwin Prize for Popular Song.

The event at Washington, D.C.'s D.A.R. Constitution Hall featured performances by famous fans of the duo singing their songs, with Metallica performing "Funeral for a Friend/Love Lies Bleeding", Annie Lennox performing "Border Song", and Joni Mitchell and Brandi Carlile performing "I'm Still Standing", among others.

The concert will air on PBS on April 8, and members of Metallica told reporters how much John and Taupin's collaborations meant to them. Frontman James Hetfield said, "They're an inspiration to us", and guitarist Kirk Hammett added, "They're responsible for some of the greatest songs of my childhood".
