I'm completely sold & ready for the country era of Beyoncé. LETS GO!

Beyoncé said “welp since y’all want to be mad about one little ass country song!…get ready for a whole fucking country album! Now seethe!” 🤣🤣🤣

the police boycotted her after the super bowl, she was cussed out by politicians after the BET awards, KKK members were protesting outside FWT shows… and yet she STILL went ahead and did this at one of the most racist institutions in the industry, AND brought out the chicks after all the smoke they got during the iraq war! 😭 this woman has GUTS, an unshakable spirit. not to mention top tier musicality. and this LOOK?!????! the dress is insane.

We Stan for this woman because during this time she was being denied the recognition she truly deserved! The racial hatred that followed after this performance is just only oneeee example of the reason why we as the HIVE will forever back her up! She’s a real philanthropist, an activist through her art! A True Artist, The Queen will forever be a staple in this world. 🤍🐝

The controversy this performance cause was wild. They hated her being there and even more that she brought the Dixie Chicks with her (as they had pretty much been banned for years). Bey really just keeps going regardless of what anyone says and i admire that about her. 💜 We got your back, Bey!

You should look up the interview where Natalie from the Dixie Chicks said that working with Beyoncé was the best experience of her professional career. Also, that they listened to the full Lemonade album every day while on their tour bus, and that they had such deep admiration for her talent that they were shocked and immediately accepted when she requested that they go live together and during practices were blown away by how much she busts her ass to get the perfect performance every time. You should also look up the interview where Dolly Parton said that the only remaining living person she wants to do a professional cover of Jolene is Beyoncé and she hopes Beyoncé will do to the song what Whitney Houston did to “I will always love you” which is transform it into a mega hit more than it already is. Real authentic bluegrass country women admire Bey, don’t let the haters tell you otherwise. ❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤

Beyoncé walked in there and said let me show y'all a performance 😂 she was also newly pregnant with her twins here!

I never understood the hate she got for this. The woman was brown and raised in Houston Texas, her father’s family had farms , she grew up in southern culture. Country is what she is . She has appreciated and experienced all genres that inspired her. The soulful sounds of RnB, energetic connection with pop, emergence of hip hop and humbleness of country. That is everything that she is. People attack her and make it a race thing when it doesn’t have anything to do with race at all. Either you got it or you don’t. Nobody can stand in a country song better than someone that is from the country. That’s just it.

They completely blew the roof off of that performance, and the crowd loved it. It was unfortunate that the CMA, who invited her to perform her song at this 50th Anniversary awards, decided to take this performance down on their CMA site because of really nasty and racist comments posted in the comments section. They claimed Beyonce called and told them to go ahead and remove it...but I think when you invite an artist to come to your event, that you should have their back. They should have just shut off the comments section, and released a statement that they do not support that kind of behavior on their platform...and left the performance up for people to enjoy. They wanted big view numbers so bad for this 50th Anniversary of the CMA show...so they knew inviting her was going to pay off because she has a dedicated following, and the Lemonade album was very well received with the public. The Dixie Chicks loved this song so much that they were performing it on the concert tour. Beyonce found out about it and was impressed. She said she grew up listening to them. So, when Bey was asked to perform this, she insisted that they come to perform it with her. Before the live performance, they went to the studio and recorded a version of this together(the studio version doesn't sound as big band as the live version), so once the performance happened, Beyonce dropped the song to purchase. The Dixie Chicks had been banned from the CMA'S for over a decade because they criticized the job performance of the, then President, George W. Bush, concerning the Iraq war, especially after 9-11. Can you believe that? Because they spoke their own thoughts about the performance of the president, they got black balled. I believe they were accused of being unamerican for not blindly supporting their president. Almost sounds like some right wing cult. I love this live version better though. It hits harder, and as you said, sounds full with, this big band sound. It felt more like a New Orleans Jamboree to me. Not even Kenny's sour puss face could kill the vibe. Mathew McConaughey was really feeling it. 😅

They were so mad about this performance and they’re mad about her new country album coming out and I couldn’t be happier! Beyonce SHAKIN THE TABLE! 😂😂😂

When people say her music is boring or she can’t sing…I just can’t help but to think they’re either jealous or racist because even if you don’t like her kind of music or the sound of her voice…saying those things are just ridiculous. Beyby girl is the whole TRUTH lol

This song came out 8 years ago. And was a smashing success with over 100M streams on Spotify. It’s as authentic and traditional as a country song can be with its roots in folk, banjos, blues etc. it’s as Louisiana and Texas as country can get. Beyoncé nailed it. Being that she is the only STAR rated vocalist to have debuted in the 21st century (the last two before her were the likes of Mariah Carey, Whitney Houston, and Celine Dion) the world knew she was going to give a killer live performance. This became the most watched performance in CMA’s history despite the racist backlash it received by the gatekeepers of country music. Now in 2024, with Beyoncé coming out with a new country album, and awakening my eyes like an explosion to this genre, this has become my favorite song ❤

One of my favorite Beyoncé performances.

DIVINE PERFORMANCE! Bee is so complete and versatile that you can't help but love her, and Dixie Chicks is the icing on the cake! All on point! ❤❤❤

All the haters in the audience- it’s kind of funny because they are all about to find out the history/origins of country music! Research if you dare-start with the banjo… This is gonna be fun! Get ‘em Bey! 🧂😂

The sax player is named Leo and started playing in the subway at Union station.. He has played all over the world as is pretty famous now..

She’s gonna sweep them awards!!!

Do NOT skip Renaissance tracks because you’ll miss out on its crazy transitions!

Folks love "freedom of speech" when it pertains to *their* speech. Anyone else trying to use that ability, they scream "oppression". It's the American way. That being said, this performance always makes me smile. I love the way Natalie Maines voice compliments Beyonce's. They sound incredible together.

“Play that thang boy “ and then starts swinging them hips 🤧🤤🫶🏽🫶🏽

I remember when this happened and I had coworkers angry about how good it was lol felt like she shouldn’t be singing country, but couldn’t deny how good the song was

They're called "The Chicks" now.

The CMA musicians hate black people getting praise in country and still hate it.

If you're excited about the Beyoncé rock era you should react to the song she did with Jack White! It's called Don't Hurt Yourself and it's also from Lemonade

Beyoncé is the GOAT. Hands down an absolute masterpiece in all ways. Anyone throwing shade is either jealous or racist and I feel bad for them because they are missing out on a legend.

Beyoncé is the epitome of an all around superstar. Once in a generation type of talent and presence.

I remember this performance, and I thought it was so cool! Beyoncé coming with a country album it sounds very natural to me, because I remember this performance. Obviously she likes country music, and music is above genre and race. Madonna once said: “Music makes the people come together.”

She's literally a southern girl from Texas!!❤

The Chicks are known for their harmonies so B harmonizing with them is amazing

That was a PHENOMENAL performance! Ooooh the goosebumps I got while listening to this.....speechless.

This also was not Beyoncés first country song she did irreplaceable with Sugarland before this check it out it’s good great reaction video

She was pregnant during this set and nobody knew. This live version is better than the recorded one. If you're deep into the Beyonce lore you'd also know her daddy is also a clown but we love Matthew lol. They mad cause every genre we touch turns to gold so I'm excited for her new era 💖

YOU NEED TO REACT TO LEMONADE!! That album will show you this womans range.

This performance made me want to leave my life behind and move to New Orleans

Here in Germany most of her Fans are in love with the two new songs. It's just her voice and the way she makes music so unbelievable strong❤! And country is not at all a thing here.

That live performance was INCREDIBLE....and the others hated them for it. 😂

This is one of my favorite Beyoncé performances of all times! She's the GOAT!

this performance caused viewership for the CMAs to spike to the highest they’ve ever been in history. and you know how they thanked her? by deleting it off all their platforms.

That insertion of “Long Time Gone” was smooth… would love to hear them release a full version of all of them singing it.

And the song is practically saying when men like her dad come around, shoot because they aren’t good like her daddy. But she probably isn’t directly talking about Papa Knowles so yea 😭

Finally more Beyonce. YOu need moreeeee HONAYYYYYYY

Well said brother. Bey is the definition of renaissance. This is very exciting.

I was hoping to see a Dixie Chicks collab with Bey now that she's doing country. Love to see it!

This is from 2016. Great performance.

Beyonce live is an experience without comparison. 🎉

Lemonade 🍋 was such an iconic era for Beyoncé 🔥🔥🔥💕💕🦄🦄 you don’t have to like her to appreciate her talent. She’s just everything, and then she has the nerve to be beautiful 😍

Loving the support and commentary!

Is she killed country in 2016 That's when this is from I can't imagine what the new countries gonna sound like. Sonically this is one of the best things ever.

I hope no country artists are planning to release albums this year because they’re wasting their time. Bey will top the charts and get ALL the awards!

Please have more reactions about Beyoncé 😊

They look like they are having so much fun love it.

Are the country stations even playing this song? The Dixie Chicks got canceled back in 2003 before we even knew what being canceled meant, I hope we hear more from them, Beyonce sounds great in this song. Most country stations will not play her other two songs Texas Hold-Em or 16 Carriages. And both of the songs are awesome! It's a pity, isn't it?

The Versatility makes Beyonce one of the true G.O.A.Ts in the music industry. So much talent, growth, stage presence and vocal prowess 🔥👑🐝.

Loved this performance ❤

I love how she gives her voice a country twang in this song. I hope she gives us more twang in the album

She's also done rock if you're interested you can watch "VMAs beyoncé 2016"

Love your reactions!! Definitely subscribed!! One thing you will learn is her Live performances are believe it or not better than the tracks. You need to watch her live cover performance to “the beautiful ones & sex on fire” from Glastonbury. It should be in 1 video. Mind blown🤯

Beyonce is a once in a lifetime phenom!! If I w a an artist, I wouldn't like her either because she literally HAS IT ALL! What can this woman NOT do??

Daddy reacting to Daddy Lessons

You can go back further and watch her perform the country version of irreplaceable with sugar land

6:32 - 7:01 They had that synergy thing going. I am here for Beyoncé. Future rock album too😊

I didn’t know the Dixie Chicks were black balled. I loved them & I love this performance ❤️♥️💙

she ATE this they never had a better performance than this she was the ultimate as she always is 👑👑👑👑

I freaking love the Dixie Chicks, and this song is one of my favorites off of "Lemonade". I'm not even a fan like that, but this album is a classic.

You seem really sweet. Thank you for speaking out a bit at the end of your video.

Merci de réagir à cette chanson qui a fait beaucoup de controverse à l'époque comme si Queen B n'avait pas le droit de faire une chanson country La musique est universelle Elle avait mis le feu avec dixie chicks 👏👏👏👏👏

The Chicks covered Daddy Lessons in their 2016 tour MMXVI. Beyonce asked them to help her perform the song at the CMAs that year.

Can’t wait for her new album!!! Also you should totally review her live performance of All Night in tidal! Soooo beautiful!

She's GOATED!

If you like Rock do a reaction to her song "Don't Hurt Yourself" from the Lemonade album!

Beyoncé is the greatest! Love this performance and your reaction!!! ❤

What I find very telling about the performance which Beyonce and Dixie Chicks conducted were the TV ratings. That one performance had the highest rating of the entire show. Speaks for itself. BTW awesome review.

Lemonade is her best album in my opinion. The visuals are also nice. Renaissance is second, but you may not like it if you’re not into dance music.

This collab is amazing, I am a huge Beyonce fan. BUT I honestly couldn't stop looking at your beautiful blue eyes. Good lord Jesus, those are some gorgeous eyes you were blessed with!

I really appreciate your reaction, open attitude, & commentary. Music should bridge gaps, not be limited to a specific race. This was an outstanding performance. Continue to encourage unity as you’re done. Good use of your platform ❤

AND NOW SHES DOING A COUNTRY ALBUM 🤭🤭

E ela estava grávida dos gêmeos aí, ela sempre dá o melhor de si. Essa performance é simplesmente icônica, e foi assim que acederam nela a chama. Foi depois disso que ela disse vou gravar um álbum country. Todos de cara feias para elas, mas não puderam apagar seus brilhos. E ela vai brilha muito mais ainda, daqui à 3 dias vai ser p lançamento Hahaha. A maior que temos na indústria. ❤️‍🔥🐝👑🤠👢 Hi from Brasil 🇧🇷

I loved this performance so much. They sound so great together and the band is amazing. And watching Beyoncé and The Chicks piss off a bunch bigots will always be entertaining.

Think you might be slightly misunderstanding the song haha, in the song her dad isn't a good person, which is why there's the line "When men like me come around my daddy said shoot", basically saying if she ever comes across a man like him then shoot them lol. The song is about how her dad cheated on her mum a lot, but when her husband cheated on her, suddenly her dad was aganst cheating and it's hypocritical.

You should react to the studio version of this as well it’s off of Lemonade album , and If I were a Boy live at the Grammys

if you're interested in hearing Beyonce do rock, listen to "Don't Hurt Yourself" off of her Lemonade album!

do more live Beyonce performances omg!!! she's on another level

Love her for bring in the Dixie Chicks great job.

This was from the 2016 CMA awards.

This performance is giving me CHILLS 🤗

Beyoncé has been doing country since her destiny child days tbh

I hope you watched and reacted to the music video of Daddy Lessons too. So you could've appreacted the live more. Thank you for reacting

Camera crispy as hell man love seeing new reactors on the come up man keep it up homie 🔥💯👀

This was coachella on a hayride.

The Zydeco beat comes out during the musical parts. I want to break out into a Second Line.

you definitely should check out more of Bey's live performances she's the greatest entertainer alive i think you'll love it! i'd suggest watching crazy in love live from homecoming (aka coachella)

Please react to Don't Hurt Yourself featuring Jack White. It's on the Lemonade album.

Come on rep for Texas!, Queen!❤

You sir just gained a follower ! I love the way you speak about this performance and queen bey ❤️
