The album "proves her adaptability and mastery, regardless of genre," according to the BBC's Mark Savage.

The genres overlap so seamlessly is evidence of Beyoncé's technical mastery, but also of her central thesis: that Nashville's marginalization of outsiders, and black women in particular, weakens the music in the long run, Mark Savage, BBC News music correspondent, via statement.

While some critics say that the album should have been less than 27 tracks, .

Larisha Paul from 'Rolling Stone' said that "every piece" of 'Cowboy Carter' was "meticulously thought out," from the album's length to the artwork.
