Brooklyn Baby Posted April 5 Posted April 5 "I just feel like it's quite an interesting thing to do when you're trying to tackle a new genre & you just choose the biggest song in that genre to cover. I mean, you do you, Beyoncé, and she literally is doing her. Or is she doing Dolly?" 7
Sheep Posted April 5 Posted April 5 I'm sure if the covers/interpolations weren't Dolly Parton, The Beatles, and Patsy Cline somebody would be fussing about how she's stealing from lesser known artists. Lily has been particularly bitter towards the girls after her career went down the drain. 14 3

Erotica Posted April 5 Posted April 5 This woman is a Beyonce hater, she's said other unpleasant things about Bey in the past… losers like that, best to ignore. 1 1 1
futuresuperstar2023 Posted April 5 Posted April 5 That woman also said Beyonce has a youthful appearance because she is getting help which is stupid AF to say. Sorry but Black just don't crack especially for BW. 1 1
Galah Posted April 5 Posted April 5 I really don't get all the discourse about this song. For one, it's not a cover. If anything, it's an answer song, which were popular in 1950s country and R&B music, which is... kinda the point of the album. Taking it back to country's roots. Secondly, Dolly Parton is literally on the album, and has an interlude leading into the song. If the author of the original song is clearly co-signing and endorsing it, it's literally not up to anyone else to call it "weird". You can dislike it all you want on a personal level, but that has nothing to do with the integrity of the song. Finally, "Jolene" is far from being the biggest song in the country genre. Sure, it's considered a classic now, but it barely scraped the Top 60 upon initial release. We haven't forgotten that Lily Allen also decided to shade Beyoncé unnecessarily on her 2014 single "Sheezus". Seems like somebody needs to go back to the drawing board, but it sure ain't Beyoncé. 3 1

mathekr Posted April 5 Posted April 5 She's entitled to her opinion, but what I find very weird is that out of everything it's Jolene that's causing discourse
LittleStarmen Posted April 5 Posted April 5 Stream Not Fair the superior country song and heir to Jolene 9 2
SoundsandSongs Posted April 5 Posted April 5 Not everyone talking about Jolene when Dolly herself approves Bey's version, has talked about wanting Bey to sing it for years and has the full writing credit on Bey's version. The only opinion which matters is Dolly's who's a full supporter of Beyonce. 6
