Beyonc explains why she stopped making music videos

Beyonc has chosen not to create music videos for her latest albums 'Renaissance' and 'Cowboy Carter' to allow the music to stand on its own. In a discussion with GQ, she emphasized the richness of the music and the importance of focusing on vocals without the distraction of visuals. Despite her iconic past music videos, she believes the music's depth is more significant at this time. She achieved major milestones in country music with 'Cowboy Carter', including becoming the first Black woman to hit Number One on the US country charts, although the album did not receive nominations at the 2024 CMAs. Additionally, she collaborated with notable artists and incorporated historical elements into her work.
