00:00They were into it. I mean, how could you not be? Look at this. I mean, look at it.

00:12It's very cool. I've never done anything like this on the beach before. I mean, I've done

00:17other things on the beach, but I've never done this. Oh, and neither have we. The stunningly

00:22talented Britney Spencer has been on quite the journey since joining Beyonce's Cowboy Carter.

00:27Man, Beyonce is everything. She really is. I think she's the greatest entertainer alive.

00:32But we followed Britney on a new journey to the beaches of Mexico at Four Seasons Naviva

00:37Resort. Thank y'all so much for being here. I appreciate it. This is really beautiful.

00:42What a setting. Oh my gosh. Where we got a private show with new music and more.

00:47On the road again. Going places that I've never been.

00:54And we take you there and billboard all accents.

00:58It's more than a dream and a lesson when the radio's on. It's bigger than the soul.

01:10It was beautiful and nerve-wracking, honestly. I don't really play a whole lot by myself on guitar.

01:17Usually I have a guitarist with me. So this was a, it was a chance for me to kind of really stretch myself a bit.

01:30Naviva was a hidden oasis of luxury. All weekend you snuck away to the middle of nature for spa

01:35and so much more. Like an intimate cliffside concert of less than 30 guests and Britney Spencer.

01:42We can make it all right to the next fight. But we can let it go.

01:48Baby, hit the chainsaw. Is this alcohol?

01:51I'll be okay. See, this is where y'all get me messed up.

01:54Oh yeah, they are. We had a tequila tasting and couldn't even count the bottles.

02:00At Restaurant Copal, we had so many deliciously prepared meals. And got to hang with the amazing

02:05chefs that prepared them in private cooking classes. And even head down to the beaches to enjoy our meals

02:12there. An experience fit for a music star and her guests.

02:16I love the show last night that I do here at Naviva. I think it's really beautiful that they're having this

02:21really nice song series and bringing in different artists to just play in a setting like this.

02:42I've been so encouraged by artists like Halsey and Lizzo who have been talking about the challenges

02:48a lot of artists are facing in the industry right now. And I'm inspired about artists being honest

02:53about where they are and what's going on. And I'm an independent artist. And so that's the thing

02:58that's most inspiring me.

03:11My goodness. Anyone else's bedroom is like, wow, now this makes sense. This is what bedrooms are supposed to be.

03:18And she was right about those bedrooms with stunning views of the ocean and a private pool.

03:23Then I transitioned into some new songs that aren't out yet. And I felt the difference. And I think

03:27the biggest takeaway for me musically was that I'm getting way more personal and I'm getting way more

03:32into it.

03:34It's a habit, thinking revenge wouldn't end this game. I walked over, I'm goaded and letting us

03:43cycle spend on full cringe. And not only did Britney provide a soundtrack to your stay,

03:49but there were experiences like Temescal and sound baths to help you really bask in the beauty.

03:55How does Britney take it all in, including working with Queen Bee?

03:59Being able to sing with her was such an incredible experience. It was a learning experience for sure.

04:03It was like a crash course. Like just being with her and watching how she works, it definitely

04:10taught me a whole lot as a newer artist. And it definitely opens me up to collaboration and the

04:16kinds that I want to do moving forward. And it's a beautiful thing.

04:30Obviously the fruits of what I do or even what, I mean as a whole, what black country music has been

04:35able to do over the last like five years. Um, I think that even if we don't see the fruit of that

04:41right now, I know that we will. Thank y'all so much. I appreciate y'all for coming on. Thank you for having me with me though.
