It's unclear whether "Dolly P," "Smoke Hour Willie Nelson" and "The Linda Martell Show" mean the country music icons will be among the album's guest artists, but Wednesday's update does confirm that "Cowboy Carter" will feature Beyoncé's own take on the Dolly Parton classic "Jolene." The country music darling previously teased the cover in an interview with the Knox News Sentinel earlier this month.

Before her reveal on Wednesday, Beyoncé told fans on Instagram that she has a "few surprises" in store for "Cowboy Carter" listeners and "collaborated with some brilliant artists who I deeply respect," but didn't list any names.

"I hope that you can hear my heart and soul, and all the love and passion that I poured into every detail and every sound," she added.

Is there 'Cowboy Carter' merchandise?

Yes, and it all can be found in Beyoncé's online shop.

Currently, the Beyhive can shop for limited edition CDs, vinyls (in red, white, blue and black) and box sets that include a white T-shirt with a red or black photo of Beyoncé, a CD with a limited edition cover and a "unique back image" from her various "Cowboy Carter" shoots.

Most items in the current merch drop tout an image of the "Hustler" singer adding her own twist to the Statue of Liberty and its signature raised-arm pose. With long, beaded braids, Beyoncé holds a smoky cigar in her right hand, covers her chest with her left hand and poses in the nude, with a sash reading "act ii Beyincé" the only thing covering her body.

ICYMI: The sash's "Beyincé" is not a typo, but rather a nod to an alternate spelling of Beyoncé's mother's family name.

How can I listen to the new album?

"Cowboy Carter" won't drop until the clock strikes midnight Friday on the East Coast, but in the meantime, Beyoncé fans can take steps to ensure they won't miss a beat.

Spotify, Apple Music and Tidal users can pre-save "Cowboy Carter" via Beyoncé's website. After that, they'll just need patience until Friday, when they can finally get down, down, down.
