We're waiting to see if we'll be blown away from what could be a truly incredible country cover from Queen Bey herself.
In a recent interview with Knox News, the legendary Dolly Parton hinted at a seismic shift in the music landscape: Beyoncé, the reigning queen of pop, maybe delving into covering country classics, with a rendition of Parton's timeless hit, "Jolene" on her new LP Act II. The mere thought of Beyoncé lending her incomparable voice to such a beloved song is enough to send shivers down the spine of both fandoms.
"I think she’s recorded ‘Jolene’ and I think it’s probably gonna be on her country album, which I’m very excited about that," revealed Parton during the interview. "I love her! She’s a beautiful girl and a great singer," added Parton, expressing her admiration for Beyoncé.
Fans have already taken to X, looking through the upcoming album credits for even more details, and some even speculate that Parton could be a collaborator on the track:
It’s true, Dolly Parton has credits on one song for act II, most likely a cover for Jolene, can be a sample too with a few changes made by Beyoncé.
