Blake Shelton defends Beyoncé’s musical choices, including her country-flavored track “Daddy Lessons,” despite criticism that it isn’t authentically country. Shelton dismisses critics, asserting that everyone has the right to make music as they please.

The most notable criticism came from CMT, questioning the song’s country authenticity. Shelton, known for his outspoken nature, doesn’t believe such harsh critiques are justified. Even the Dixie Chicks have covered the song live, indicating a broader acceptance within the country music community.

Shelton’s outspokenness extends beyond music criticism, evident in his role as a coach on NBC’s “The Voice” and his candid Twitter commentary. His forthcoming album, “If I’m Honest,” features a collaboration with girlfriend Gwen Stefani, reflecting their willingness to defy expectations. Shelton emphasizes that they no longer care about public opinion, prioritizing authenticity in their music.
