They came by his fucking ass: Country singer explies Beyonc in Rant fed by whiskey
Country Gavin Adcock singer is demonstrating how some in the United States still have a problem when it comes to Beyoncé’s journey to country music genre.
In a video posted on Instagram on Monday, filmed during one of his recent concerts, Adcock spoke a speech fed by whiskey that served as a kind of warning for Houston’s native.
“There are only three people in front of me in the lists of Apple Music Country, and one of them is Beyoncé,” Adcock said. “You can tell him that we will come for his damn butt.”
When the crowd applauded the approval, Adcock doubled: “That shit is not country music, it has never been country music and it won’t be country music.”

With the volume in his ego he turned to the Max, Adcock continued with another Instagram video posted the same day.
“When I was a little boy, my mother was throwing a little Beyoncé in the car. I heard a lot of Beyoncé songs and I actually remember that her Super Bowl’s part -time program was quite surprising in the day, but I really don’t think her album should be labeled as country music,” he said. “It does not sound in the country, it does not feel in the country, and I simply do not believe that people who have dedicated their entire life to this genre and this lifestyle must have to compete or see that album simply remain at the top just because it is Beyoncé.”
In the February Grammys, Bey took home the album of the year for “Cowboy Carter”, while becoming the most presented artist in the history of the program.

However, it is no stranger to the intense scrutiny in the world of country music. In March, when he launched the cover of his album, he included a legend that talked about how he was not accepted in the genre.

“This album has spent more than five years. He was born from an experience that I had years ago in which I did not feel welcome … and it was very clear that I was not,” he wrote. “But, due to that experience, I made a deeper immersion in the history of country music and studied our rich musical archive.”
The singer of “Texas Hold ‘Em” continued: “The criticisms I faced when I first entered this genre forced me to boost the limitations that were put on me. Act II is the result of challenging myself and taking my time to fold and mix genres to create this body.”
