Beyonce released her eighth studio album, “Cowboy Carter”, on March 29th. It features a cover of “Blackbird” by The Beatles produced by Paul McCartney who also played acoustic guitar on the album. “Cowboy Carter” also features Stevie Wonder, Willie Nelson, Dolly Parton and more.

“I am so happy with Beyonce’s version of my song ‘Blackbird’. I think she does a magnificent version of it and it reinforces the civil rights message that inspired me to write the song in the first place. I think Beyoncé has done a fab version and would urge anyone who has not heard it yet to check it out. You are going to love it.” – Paul McCartney
