Hayley Williams is taking to social media to name her two favorite albums right now, which echoes the sentiments of millions of others.
Williams, the frontwoman of Paramore, will be touring with Taylor Swift for The Eras Tour's European leg in May 2024.
Hayley Williams Rave About Beyoncé's 'Cowboy Carter
In celebration of Record Store Day, Williams revealed on Instagram some of the albums that have kept her company in the past few days, including Beyoncé's history-making country album, Cowboy Carter.
"I cry at the same part of American Requiem, every time. Showed my mom and she got chills around the same time. When Beyonce sings "if you ain't got no grits get the f--- up out the south" I feel the kind of southern pride that exists - subversively amongst hatred and fear," the Mississippi native wrote.
Cowboy Carter officially becomes the first country album by a Black female artist to hit No. 1 on the Billboard 200 albums chart, while its lead single "Texas Hold' Em," becomes the first country song by a Black artist to debut at No. 1 on the Billboard Hot 100 chart.
The album received glowing reviews from critics and fans, praising Beyoncé's masterful transition to the country music genre after feeling unwelcome in it in the past.

Similarly, Williams also included Swift's most recent release, The Tortured Poets Department, specifically its anthology version that contained 31 tracks.
"Had me from the storytelling alone, my friend. Every one of us knows this kind of grief! It's so impressive to me how specific and colorful Taylor's words get without ever losing the universal thread. I'm so ready to be tour-mates," Williams said.
Paramore has opened for Swift several times on The Eras Tour leg in North America, including the opening show in Arizona in 2023. Paramore will return as Swift's opening act in Europe starting in May.
Williams also named Brittany Howard's What Now, Rufus Wrainright's Want One, Bee Gees' Main Course, Tierra Whack's World Wide Whack, Radiohead's The Bends, The Smile's Wall of Eyes, Idles' TANK, and Blonde Redhead's Sit Down for Dinner as her favorites.
