    The outward-focused side of this album alternates between staggering highs and moments that, while undoubtedly competent, pale in comparison to the heights Beyoncé has scaled in recent years. The LP is at its best when the singer pairs her urgent reflections with similarly urgent sounding music.

    While it’s clear from the off that COWBOY CARTER isn’t like any other Beyoncé record, it still very much is a Beyoncé album. And, despite country’s present-day popularity, it’s still a risky album which, if attempted by practically anyone else, could come across as desperate.

    It feels like a feast at a time when pop is offering up scraps. As she mentioned herself when announcing the album to a mix of anger, intrigue and confusion: “This ain’t a country album. This is a ‘Beyoncé’ album.” It’s also her fourth classic in a row.
