Recorded back in April, an in depth discussion of the emergence of Neo-Neo Traditional Country sound, a term we may have unknowingly coined on this podcast in October of 2022. Since then we have seen it pop up a few times online and thought we should discuss exactly what we mean by Neo-Neo Traditional Country Music, where it came from, and some of the artists that encapsulate the sound.

Part 1 of 2 part discussion ahead of "Act II: Cowboy Carter" release. The biggest question everyone has been asking about Beyoncé’s latest music has been: "Is it Country?" Beyoncé has said herself “This ain’t a Country album. This is a ‘Beyoncé’ album.” Yet everything about it from the horses, hats, boots, and initial tracks, are signalling full-out country record. There’s a complicated history with Beyoncé and the country music establishment and an even more complicated hidden history of black artists and innovators in country music. We discuss her initial Country Carter tracks as well as 2016’s Daddy Lessons in the context of country music, but also her broader mission of reclaiming black contributions to country music. A Part 2 follow up episode with a discussion of whole record will follow!
