In an unexpected twist, tech mogul Elon Musk has publicly criticized the iconic singer Beyoncé for her lack of country music. In a statement that quickly went viral on social media, Musk remarked, “She should be fined for pretending to be a country artist.”
The comment comes after the release of Beyoncé’s new project, in which she explores country music—a genre traditionally dominated by white artists from the southern United States. While many have praised her versatility and ability to reinvent herself, Musk’s reaction has sparked major controversy.
So far, neither Beyoncé nor her team has directly responded to Musk’s remarks. However, her fans have defended her venture into country music, emphasizing that music is a universal art form that should not be restricted by race or cultural background.
The controversy continues to grow, and both public figures are expected to address the issue in the coming days. Is this merely an opinion, or does it spark a deeper debate about cultural appropriation and the evolution of musical genres?
