Beyoncé and Lana Del Rey have both announced new country albums. This shift in sound says more about them than the music industry.
For the first time in decades, country music is back in vogue. In the past two weeks alone, both Lana Del Rey and Beyoncé announced new country albums, while Luke Combs, Zach Bryan, and Kacey Musgraves are. For once, music’s mainstream current is flowing the other way: Country artists are no longer going pop. Pop is going country.
Del Rey’s songwriting, specifically, has already been arcing towards esoteric, autobiographical vignettes for sometime now. Her last album,, spanned gospel, gothic folk, trip-hop and pop, but its spirit was all country as she paid homage to her ancestors and parents and ruminated on having a baby. As her songwriting gets even more inner-facing, it only makes sense for country to be her next frontier.
