In 2021, Guyton became the first Black solo female artist to earn a Grammy nomination in a country music category for her single \"Black Like Me.\"

Guyton captioned the post, \"With opportunity comes possibility. The possibilities are endless with you @beyonce.\"

\"God gave me an assignment and I followed,\" the \"Black Like Me\" singer continued. \"May the doors continue to stay wide open.\"

Beyoncé, in addition to putting her own twist on country music with \"Cowboy Carter,\" spotlighted Black country artists both past and present on the album.

The song \"Spaghettii\" features trailblazing performer Linda Martell, who is also featured on an interlude.

Elsewhere, Beyoncé's cover of a Beatles classic, \"Blackbiird,\" features some of today's rising stars, including Brittney Spencer, Reyna Roberts, Tanner Adell and Tiera Kennedy.
