In a new interview with People, Brittney Spencer reflects on her remarkable journey from being a young country music fan singing in church in Baltimore to becoming a Grammy-winning artist featured on Beyoncé’s Cowboy Carter. The 36-year-old singer was one of four Black female vocalists that Beyoncé recruited to sing on “BLACKBIIRD” from the Best Country Album-winning Cowboy Carter, getting to perform the song live for the first time on Christmas day with Tanner Adell, Reyna Roberts and Tiera Kennedy for Netflix’s Beyoncé Bowl. “I learned a great deal being with [Beyoncé], being with her team and getting a little bit of an inside look into how things run in her world,” Spencer recalls. “Gosh, that was a really defining moment for me.” Spencer also credits The Chicks, Loretta Lynn, Maren Morris, Shania Twain, Kacey Musgraves, and Willie Nelson with shaping her musical tastes and singing career. Those influences are prevalent on Spencer’s debut album, My Stupid Life, which was released in January 2024. (People)
