CMT Host Cody Alan Says Beyoncé Extra Than Welcome on Nation Music Scene

Cody says having someone as big as Beyoncé shine the spotlight on country music is a big deal — and he’s totally embracing it.

A turn to country appears to be a bit of a trend recently as Cody reminds us of the success rapper Jelly Roll has had going back to his country roots — and while Cody isn’t certain Queen Bey’s country foray will translate to the masses, he thinks it super cool she’s even giving it a go.

Alan also notes that the music biz usually categorizes artists — but it’s a genius move on Beyoncé’s end to step out of the box ’cause that’s usually where the best music is found.
