‘I’m no longer motivated by charts, sales’ – Beyoncé

American superstar Beyoncé has said she is no longer motivated by charts and commercial success.

The 42-year-old singer said “growth” has changed her perspective on musical success.

The pop star, who recently went out of her way by releasing a country music album ‘Cowboy Carter,’ said she was grateful for the “extraordinary success” of the new album, adding that it changed her life.

“There was a time in my life when charts and sales excited and motivated me,” Beyoncé told The Hollywood Reporter.

“Once you have challenged yourself and poured every ounce of your life, your pain, your growth and your dreams into your art, it’s impossible to go backward.

“I’m very grateful and humbled for the extraordinary success of the new album.”
