Beyoncé’s father claims that although he isn’t referring to the CMA voters as racists, her rejection “speaks for itself.”
Remarkably, Shaboozey—who appears on Beyoncé’s country album—has been nominated for Single of the Year and Best New Artist for his song “A Bar Song.”
However, Mathew claims that the CMA’s decision-makers are adopting a negative stance against Beyoncé, which is understandable “given the current state of American culture.”
Mathew also states … “In America, there’s no accountability for people not being accepting of other cultures.”
Mathew’s statement that country music is a descendant of Africa is ironic, since he claims that the banjo originated in Africa.
