1st April 2023
it was just gone 2pm by the time i got to the studio, i made myself comfy and just played around with some melodies when i got a message.
i looked at my phone and it was Jay.
Jay-Z: it's confirmed, REACT is the next single, release date is 14th April.
you need to start teasing the song in the coming days. get the fans hyped. we're gonna get you some good promo too. gonna be a busy promo run for this song, hope you're ready xi smiled at his message. and replied back instantly
me: thank you so much jay, for everything. i am always ready!!and he replied instantly.
Jay-Z: you're always welcome, want you in the dance studio too, come up with choreography. bey said this needs to be a big choreo moment.. filming for the video starts on the 7th, ready for release with the song on the 14th xxi couldn't help but smile.
i instantly replied:
me: thank you thank you thank you!! i'll get in the dance studio asap! just got a few things to clear up xxJay-Z: that's fine, and you're welcome xx
i smiled but didn't reply.
i then focussed on music.
working on numerous albums at a time is tough.
while i've been working on my own album, i've been working on beyoncé's trilogy album with her.
i began working with her on her stuff in early 2021. and it was a dream come true.
after working together on the savage remix with megan thee stallion, she loved me, my voice and my passion. and asked me to work with her.
and it's been the biggest honour of my life.we've already released Renaissance, i obviously worked on the full album
with her, like i said yesterday to jude.
we collaborated on Heated, and as little extras that weren't on the album we remixed break my soul and cuff it which was so fun!now, we're on the next album, which is set for release next year hopefully!
we've been working on it since last year also. but we've been feeling it outbecause it's a country album and we've never really done this before, we wanted to get it perfect and work with different writers and producers, we had to make sure we was working with the right people before we could truly make the music we wanted.
we've got a lot of songs already written and recorded, we want to do more and then listen to them all and see what feels right.
or, when writing and recording them we'll see what feels the most natural and fun to do, then that'll be on the album.you might be thinking 'you.. anastasia doing country music you're british' yes i am! BUT let's not forget my mother is from houston texas.
texas blood runs through me, a lot! my mum still sounds so country, and i have a mixture of her accent, and the yorkshire accent.
craaazzzyyyy mix. i know.but i am no less country than the artists ACTUALLY doing country music.
like... look at shania twain for example👀👀
no comment no comment.
i'm just saying, people can't be mad at beyonce and i for creating country music, who are southern/have southern routes, but support a white canadian women who does county. like bey are actually from the south/have southern routes running through them.
i spent a lot of time in houston growing up on the ranch my mom grew up on!i start thinking to what my mum used to always say went we went back to texas.. 'body roles at the rodeo i'm coming home' and 'on the trail ride to the zydeco i'm coming home'
i raise my brows and then sing them to myself i grab my phone and go onto beyoncé's and i message thread and press the audio record button
