Beyoncé's "Jolene" lives on COWBOY CARTER, her 2024 album, and the credits tell the story: Dolly Parton holds the writer credit, while Beyoncé shares the lyricist credit with The-Dream, Denisia "Blu June" Andrews and Brittany Chi Coney, so she has clearly put her own hand to the words. Beyoncé produced it with Jack Rochon, who plays guitar alongside Jack Siegal, and Khirye Tyler added production.
The guest list is the fun part. Stevie Wonder blows harmonica, a choir of eight stands behind her, The-Dream and Blu June sing background vocals, Willie Jones adds an extra vocal, and the handclaps come from Beyoncé, JAŸ-Z, The-Dream and Melissa Vargas. Stuart White recorded her lead vocal and mixed the track.
