“If Ella Wants It, You’re Doing It” — Miranda Lambert Says Ella Langley Didn’t Give Her A Choice In Producing ‘Dandelion’ Album

She didn’t take no for an answer, and that certainly paid off. Last Friday, Miranda Lambert released her new disco-inspired album Crisco, which she co-produced with Jesse Frasure, and of course, she’s been doing a ton of press around the release, so of course, plenty of people have asked her about her friendship with Ella Langley. Miranda co-wrote Ella’s record-breaking hit “Choosin’ Texas,” as well as their duet “Butterfly Season,” and Miranda co-produced the entire Dandelion record, which is easily one of the […]

“Unreal” – Kid Rock Claps Back At Calls For Him To Remove Songs From His Upcoming Christian Album ‘Halfway 2 Jesus’

Kid Rock’s forthcoming gospel album has some people up in arms, and the “Cowboy” singer is not having it. Though it might seem like an out-of-left-field move for Kid Rock, the rock/rap/country artist has already had a No. 1 hit song on Billboard’s Hot Christian Songs chart, in case you didn’t know. His cover of Cody Johnson’s 2022 hit, “Til’ You Can’t,” which featured a new verse about giving your life to Jesus, debuted at the very top of the […]

Reba McEntire Says This Era Of Her Life Might Be Her Best Yet: “I Don’t Think I’ve Ever Been Happier”

Reba McEntire Says This Era Of Her Life Might Be Her Best Yet: “I Don’t Think I’ve Ever Been Happier”

Reba McEntire is as happy she’s ever been. At 71-years-old-young, the country music icon is pushing ahead with new music, a popular sitcom on NBC, wedding planning, and being a grandmother. You would think that 3-time Grammy winning artist would want to slow things down at some point, but one could argue that this is the busiest that Reba has been in the entirety (one might even say McEntirety) of her illustrious career. The “Fancy” singer recently sat down with Woman’s […]

Dolly Parton Joins Welsh Artist Bronwen Lewis For A Posthumous, Bilingual Rendition Of “Jolene”

“Jolene” like you’ve never heard it before. Of course, the song is one of the late, great Dolly Parton’s biggest hits, and today, we’re lucky enough to hear her voice on it one last time. It’s hard to believe it’s been about a month and a half since the queen of country music passed away at 80 years old in Nashville, Tennessee following a “brief battle with cancer,” but there is no doubt she left a lasting legacy that will live […]
