Beyoncé made history by leading the highest-grossing country tour by a female artist, bringing in $400 million — just short of her Renaissance Tour, which reached more than $500 million. The Queen Bee used Cowboy Carter to spotlight Black country pioneers, honoring legends like Charley Pride and Linda Martell and featuring new Black artists who have been overlooked.
The Houston native kept her family near during the tour, with Blue Ivy joining her onstage and Jay-Z and Rumi making surprise appearances.
Through her BeyGOOD Foundation, she pledged $2.5 million for wildfire relief and $100,000 to Texas Southern University’s band
As a visionary artist, cultural icon and philanthropist, Beyoncé is reshaping the story of Black creativity and pride.
