are you ready to rock? Dolly Parton The iconic singer-songwriter has announced her debut rock album, Rock star, in May. “I am very excited to finally present my first Rock and Roll album. Rock star!” he said in a May 9 statement detailing the album. “I feel very honored and privileged to have worked with some of the greatest singers and musicians of all time, and being able to sing all the iconic songs on the album was a joy beyond measure. I hope you enjoy the album as much as I enjoyed creating it!
Rock star It apparently started in 2022, when Dolly was inducted into the Rock & Roll Hall of Fame and tried to take her name off the ballot. “Although I feel very flattered and grateful to have been nominated,” she said. he wrote in March 2022: “I don’t feel like I’ve earned this right. I really don’t want votes to be split because of me, so I must respectfully withdraw. I hope the Rock & Roll Hall of Fame understands me and is willing to consider me again if I am ever worthy. However, it inspired me to release a great rock’n’roll album in the future, which is something I’ve always wanted to do! My husband is a rock ‘n’ roll fan and he always encouraged me to make one. I wish good luck to all the candidates and thank you again for the compliment. To continue!
However, the Rock Hall kept Dolly on the ballot. A month later, Dolly said she would accept if she were admitted. “I will graciously accept,” she told NPR. “I would just like to thank you and I will accept it because the fans vote. But when I said that, I always believed that the Rock & Roll Hall of Fame was for rock people, and I recently found out that that’s not necessarily the case. But if they can’t go there to be recognized, where do they go? Then I felt like I was taking something away from someone who maybe deserved it, certainly more than me, because I’ve never considered myself a rock artist. But obviously there is more.”
As expected, Dolly era elected to the Rock & Roll Hall of Fame. She felt “humbled” by the honor and referred to the album it would be Rock star at the opening ceremony. “I’m sure many of you knew that when they said they were going to put me in the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame, I didn’t feel like I had done enough to deserve it. “I didn’t understand at the time that it was anything more, but I feel very honored and proud to be here tonight,” she said, via Weekly entertainment. “If I want to get into the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame, I’m going to have to earn it.”
In November 2022 he spoke to Polstar magazine and confirmed that he was working on the album. “Well, I am. When I got inducted into the Rock & Roll Hall of Fame, I thought, “Well, there’s no better time to do this.” “I’ve always wanted to do this,” she said. “My husband is a huge hard rock ‘n’ roll fan and for years I thought, ‘One of these days, I’d like to make an album especially just for Him, just to do this.’ When I got nominated, I thought, ‘Why not go ahead and do it while the iron is hot?’ Maybe some of the big names, the legends of rock ‘n’ roll, will sing with me.” “
He wasn’t joking. There are some legends on this album, including your goddaughter. Miley Cyrus. This is what we know about it.
