Written by on February 21, 2024

Beyoncé has made music history as the first black woman to top the Billboard’s Hot Country Songs chart after her track Texas Hold ‘Em debuted at number one.

This marks the 32-time Grammy winner’s latest foray into the genre, whose relationship to Black artists has often proved controversial.

Texas Hold’Em was released simultaneously with the single 16 Carriages in a surprise album announcement during the Super Bowl on February 11.

The feat also made her the second solo female artist to have a song go straight in at number . . .
