Beyoncé, Linda Martell & Shaboozey – SPAGHETTII Lyrics [1]

[]

Date: 2024-04

SPAGHETTII opens for Linda Martell, who is known as the first African-American country artist to have commercial success and sing on Nashville’s Grand Ole Opry. Linda reflects on how musical genres are simple concepts, but tend to limit themselves.

This aligns with Country, where being a traditional genre has limited it to a purist version. Beyoncé made it clear that COWBOY CARTER was not a Country album, but a Beyoncé album, a metaphor where Beyoncé shows the versatility of her music, reinforcing the fact that her music can’t be defined by a specific genre, rather by her musical creativity and brilliance.

Shaboozey, a Nigerian-American artist, joins the song mixing the Brazilian Afro Funk “Aquecimento – Vem Vem Vai Vai Vai” by Dedé Mandrake in an album that in its first part felt very faithful to the classic Country.

Additionally, the Spaghetti Western film genre (named after the fact that many were filmed in Italy despite taking place in the American West) frequently employed scenes of shootouts and showdowns between heroes and villains.
