The Album of the Year-winning “COWBOY CARTER” was released 2 years ago today.
The album debuted at #1 on the Billboard 200 making her the first artist to debut each of her first 8 studio albums at #1.
When it won Album of the Year at the Grammys, Beyoncé became the first Black woman this century to win.
One year ago today, Beyoncé became the first Black female artist to win the "Best Country Album" category at the #GRAMMYs.
She was also the first Black woman to win 'Album of the Year' this century.
Beyoncé on her goals for her art:
“I hope my work encourages people to look within themselves and come to terms with their own creativity, strength, and resilience. I focus on story telling, growth, and quality. I’m not focused on perfectionism. I focus on evolution, innovation and shifting perception (GQ, 2024)
Happy 44th birthday to the legendary Beyoncé.
The vocalist, performer and trailblazer has broken barriers time and time again, and continues to prove herself as one of the prominent figures in music history. She holds the record for most Grammys ever, male or female, and is regarded as one of the greatest performers of all time. She was recognized by Billboard as the Greatest Pop Star of the 21st century and continues to make her mark with projects like ‘Renaissance’ and ‘Cowboy Carter’ — which gained her Album of the Year and spawned the highest-grossing Country tour of all time.

One year ago today, I began my campaign for President of the United States.
Over the 107 days of our race, I had the opportunity and honor to travel our nation and meet with Americans who were fighting for a better future. And today, millions of Americans continue to stand up for our values, our ideals, and our democracy. Their courage and resolve inspires me.
Whether you are attending a protest, calling your representatives, or building community, I want to say: Thank you. We are in this fight together.
