bu. Posted November 3, 2016 Author Share Posted November 3, 2016 (edited) Beyoncé Slays the Country Music Awards—A Political Statement Unto ItselfBeyoncé blessed the CMAs with controversy, artistry, and crucial viewers. And of course she made us wait for it. In the hours leading up to Beyoncé’s performance, which most fans expected to kick off the show, the CMAs’ Twitter hashtag was a pissed off Beyhive of Beyoncé diehards who couldn’t believe that they were actually suffering through the CMAs. If Beyoncé’s ulterior motive was making sure the entire world got very familiar with co-host Carrie Underwood, then mission accomplished.But then, finally, she appeared. Because this is Beyoncé, her collaboration with the Dixie Chicks wasn’t lacking in showmanship. Bey sported a glittery white-beaded jumpsuit, with cleavage down to there and huge sleeves puffed to the gods. Perhaps fearing that her show onesie was too subtle, she topped that all off with a thick collar of pearls. Visually, the stage was arresting—Beyoncé and her musicians and back-up singers dressed in white, with the Dixie Chicks outfitted all in black. The ensuing rendition of “Daddy Lessons” was country to its core. The acoustic cover featured a pared-down, relaxed Beyoncé—a far cry from her famously precise and demanding performances. She put on her country charm, encouraging band members to “play that thing,” and exhorting members of the crowd to put their hands together. Multiple times throughout the performance, she even appeared to be blowing kisses at someone in the audience. As Bey and the Dixie Chicks sang for their native Texas, their Southern sensibilities shined through every aspect of the performance, from a saxophonist in cowboy boots to Beyoncé’s vocal drawl. By the end of the song Bey had hardly even gyrated her hips, as she and the country trio warbled their way towards a big a capella finish. Then, instead of fixing the crowd with a glare or vanishing in a cloud of white smoke, Beyoncé sweetly hugged every Dixie Chick and walked herself offstage.As soon as the CMA news broke, people began speculating that this might be the perfect—not to mention most controversial—platform for Bey to take a political stand. While Beyoncé has never been on Katy Perry’s level, it’s easy to guess who she’ll be casting her vote for come Election Day (who are we kidding, Bey absentee ballots all the way). As the election and/or Armageddon quickly approaches, hip-hop’s first couple has steadily increased their outreach, with Jay Z headlining a concert for the former Secretary of State in Cleveland. Fans who expected Beyoncé to take a strong political stance at the CMAs will be sorely disappointed. Then again, Beyoncé’s authentic, strictly country performance was, in and of itself, politicalThe decision to have country’s prodigal daughters perform with a true genre outsider is the most subversive statement the CMAs has pulled off in years—hence the number of stone-faced fans in the audience while Beyoncé performed. That’s why Beyoncé’s decision to perform a country song with bona fide country singers, devoid of all of those signature Beyoncé bells and whistles, was such an important one. Unlike, say, “Formation” or even “Irreplaceable” with a fiddle, “Daddy Lessons” should be unobjectionable country content. So any viewer who wants to argue that Beyoncé doesn’t belong at the CMAs won’t have a strong musical case to do so, and might be forced to admit the real root of their discomfort. Tonight, Beyoncé and the Dixie Chicks were proudly country, on their own terms. And the CMAs was better for it.http://www.thedailybeast.com/articles/2016/11/02/beyonce-slays-the-country-music-awards-a-political-statement-unto-itself.html Edited November 3, 2016 by Dammn Bu Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
