Dolly Parton Defends Beyoncé Jolene Cover


Ever since Beyoncé dropped her "Renaissance Act II: Cowboy Carter album, country music purists have been decrying her reworked version of Dolly Parton's, "Jolene," where Beyoncé warns Jolene to stay away from her man, as opposed the original where Dolly shamelessly begs Jolene not to take him.

Welp, looks like Dolly is on Beyoncé's side...

In a post on Instagram, that was flooded with negative comments, Dolly gives her stamp of approval.

 


The next day Dolly dropped a pointed post with a clip from her cult classic movie, "Best Little Chorehouse in Texas," where she tells her clients if they don't like the way she runs her business they can leave. 

And in case the haters didn't get the message, the caption on the post read, "The door is that way."



Fun Fact: If you ever have to come to another woman about your man, either begging or warning, both of y'all are still in the same boat: Fighting over a man who was playing in your face.

I just think Beyonce"s album is being throwed down our throats. I mean all these awards she"s getting and record breaking. It's just so all of a sudden. It just doesn't feel authentic
The outfits just seem phoney
It all just seem phoney because the Grammys will not give het AOTY.

If they don’t like Beyoncé’s version they can always just listen to Dolly’s or Miley’s. Anyway Desert Eagle is not long enough for me! I need a part 2 or something 😩

I like your fun fact Snitch. It’s nothing better than having 2 chores fighting over you! Happy Saturday everybody!

If you can't seem to figure out how to come up with original songs you're basically begging to be honored for the works of others. Is that why you've never won a trophy for AOTY?

@2:33 - There are interviews where Dolly damn near begged her to redo her song, not the other way around.

@8:18- The Smokey Robinson came to her defense too. She has defended herself, sometimes your actions are enough to not be vocal. “You tell me that I’m not country enough to be at your award show, I’ll help take back the genre that belonged to us in the first place and help others that look like me get awards for our genre”. She’s made history and accomplished records that not even the likes of Dolly Parton or Garth Brooks have achieved. That’s not saying she’s the best at it but that she achieved success. You don’t like her and that’s cool but there’s nothing wrong with people that do.

Let’s keep it real, it artists Taylor Swift , Adele or many others was doing what Beyoncé is doing not a da** thing would be said. Her art ,her version , her vision, her way: stop 🛑 trying to keep her in a box 📦 . Stop 🛑 defaming her purpose of being a great person/artist. First Dolly has been trying for over 2 years for Beyoncé to redo her Jolene song and now she has and Dolly approves so haters and nay sayers get a life . Beyoncé flip it for her perspective and Dolly approves, yes 👏🏾 Beyoncé sing 🎤 Jolene

Dolly been in the business for many many years and she wanted Beyoncé to redo her Jolene song , and Beyoncé finally decided to redo it and flip it for her perspective and in doing so she got Dolly’s stamp of approval before she even released it
