Beyoncé wrote that her experience motivated her to do a “deeper dive” into the history of country music.

“The criticisms I faced when I first entered this genre forced me to propel past the limitations that were put on me,” she wrote. “act ii is a result of challenging myself, and taking my time to bend and blend genres together to create this body of work.”

While the singles off of “Cowboy Carter” have been country songs, Beyoncé wrote that,”This ain’t a Country album. This is a ‘Beyoncé’ album.” She also said the album is a “continuation of Renaissance.”

Beyoncé recently made history as the first Black woman to top the Billboard country chart with her single “Texas Hold ‘Em.” In her Instagram post, she said she was “honored” to do so.

“That would not have happened without the outpouring of support from each and every one of you,” she wrote on Instagram. “My hope is that years from now, the mention of an artist’s race, as it relates to releasing genres of music, will be irrelevant.”

Beyoncé announced her upcoming album during the Super Bowl and recently revealed the title as “Cowboy Carter.” The album will be released on March 29.
