![]() Oh yeah, they managed to layer on a sample of Led Zeppelin, too, just in case you weren't sure Bey could rock. On tour, this will be where the all-girl band comes out to dust all the side chicks. The next two tracks, "Sorry" and "Daddy Lessons," (with a dash of "6 Inch" in-between, weirdly) are likely to be the most discussed on the album. "Sorry" will be quoted endlessly on Twitter for the line, "He better call Becky with the good hair." It's also that party song where Bey cuts loose and sings about putting herself first, which is always a massive hit with her fans. "Daddy Lessons" is what some are referring to as her "country" song and it's the only track she gives herself sole producer credit on. It shouldn't be a revelation that she's experienced that space musically: she's a Texas Bama, a Houston girl. ![]() Around there, country music is something you pick up by osmosis, because you hear it in the mall, you see it at the livestock show and rodeo, and you blast it out of your car when you drive down a little dirt road at night under the stars. It's as much a part of Beyoncé's history as the Geto Boys and the Third Ward. Using country music to revisit her own father's infidelity is the ultimate in accessing her past to inform the present. We get a small, hymn-like interlude in "Forward," which finds Bey singing along with James Blake before the banger drops.
