Beyoncé's New Album Is Apparently Country, And The Reactions Are Hilariously On Point

    "YEE — and I cannot stress this enough — HAW."

    Beyoncé teased a new music "drop" during a Verizon commercial at the Super Bowl, and she stopped the world.

    Beyoncé saying, "Okay they ready, drop the new music!" in a scene from the commercial

    Fans quickly discovered the announcement for Act II on her Instagram, along with two brand-new songs, "Texas Hold 'Em" and "16 Carriages."

    So, yes, the cowboy ensemble at the Grammys was a full-on Easter egg because Taylor and Bey refuse to take their foot off the necks of their obsessed fandoms with coded new music announcements.

    Fans long thought Act II was going to be a country album, but the overall excitement for the announcement on Super Bowl Sunday itself was unparalleled.

    Now that the Beyhive has had a full day to process the fact that a Beyoncé country era is upon us, more and more viral hilarious reactions have surfaced.

    Here's how we're collectively going bananas over Beyoncé's potential country album.

    Beyoncé makes me proud to be from Texas and I ain’t even from Texas.

    Beyoncé is making a country album.

    We are about to see generational, hall of fame worthy racism.

    Essentially all the acts are a reclamation of lost Black music- House/Dance, Country, then Rock. Once the trifecta is complete, we will get the visuals in which we will see a Beyoncé-esque multiverse to tell a complete story taking place in Echoville. Yup yup yup!!! pic.twitter.com/eYzdI1r5yT
