Lainey Wilson “Whirlwind”

Lainey Wilson just dropped her new album “Whirlwind”, and I am loving the title track!

 

LOVE!!!

Then again, any song that mentons Palominos has my heart.

Here’s another few standouts for me on the album:

“Call a Cowboy”:

 

“Devil Don’t Go There”:

 

And of course, “Good Horses” with Miranda Lambert:

Lainey is so needed right now in Country music, with her legit Country sound, twangy voice, atitude and swagger. She’s got it all!

“Whirlwind” is out now, and you can catch her on tour- dates at http://LaineyWilson.com

 

“Nothin’ But a Good Time” Trailer!

Aaaaaaaaahhhh!

This looks so awesome.

The 80’s Hair Band docuseries  “Nothin’ But a Good Time: The Uncensored Story of 80’s Hair Metal” comes out on September 17th on Paramount +, and the trailer has me all kinds of ready:

So much yesssss… everyone from Poison to GNR to Def Leppard will be featured, and as a life long 80’s hairmetal fan, I definitely have this on my “must watch” list.

It’s a time that never will come again (thankfully) but oh, how glorious it was.

Like, in a really awesomely bad way.

Can we bring the look back, at least? I’m still a fan.

Who needs an Ozone layer when you can have hair like that?

Miranda Lambert “No Man’s Land”

Have I mentioned how much I love Miranda Lambert?

Maybe? Once or twice?

This new song of hers is just another reason why she is one of the best in the business- check out “No Man’s Land”:


Seriously, Miranda never misses. Her voice, delivery, and ability to evoke emotion through song is almost unmatched.  So far, I have loved every song she has put out off of her upcoming album “No Man’s Land”, which comes out September 13th.

Taylor Swift “I Can Do It With a Broken Heart” Music Video

Taylor Swift continues to slay with the music video for her latest single off of her “Tortured Poets Department” album.

The video for “I Can Do It With a Broken Heart” shows the hard work and effort that goes into putting on a tour as massive as the “Eras” tour:

Say what you will about Taylor, but she is incredibly impressive, and one hell of a businesswoman as well as a humanitarian. You don’t have to be a fan of her to appreciate what she has done.

“The Tortured Poets Department” is spending it’s 15th week on top of the Billboard 200 chart (the album chart), making it another banner year for Taylor.

The woman is unstoppable.

“Weeding Rainbow”

“There I Ruined It” (LOVE that creator) just made a parody of the hit 80’s kids’ TV show “Reading Rainbow” for the toking crowd called “Weeding Rainbow”.

As a fan of the show as a kid, I couldn’t help but snort out my coffee when I saw this:

@thereiruinedit There, I ruined your childhood. #readingrainbow ♬ original sound – There I Ruined It

This reminds me of the time I had my first gummy and cried in the shower.

I prefer wine to weed, but even I can appreciate the sentiment.

LaVar Burton is proud, I’m sure.

Post Malone Feat. Luke Combs “Missin’ You Like This”

Yesterday, Post Malone released his highly anticipated “F-1 Trillion” album, and as expected, it’s pretty damn fantastic.

Even if you’re not a fan of Post Malone infiltrating the Country Music scene, I don’t really think you could find fault in the music that he’s put out.  It’s solid stuff, and has some of the greatest in Country Music on the album with him. Oh, and then he also dropped the “F-1 Trillion: Long Bed” edition yesterday as well- a surprise 9 song album full of original Country songs of just Post Malone himself. And yes, they’re impressive, too.

I’ve been listening to “F-1 Trillion” these past 24 hours, and here’s my favorite- his collab with Luke Combs “Missin’ You Like This”:

 

Now, that’s some Country right there. Bonus points for the shout out to Kansas- one of the best states in the nation- and an Exxon station break-up.

Also, Post Malone sounds great on the track, as does Luke Combs (as always), and it’s been in my head for the past day.

Another couple of my favorites on the album include Post Malone’s Dolly Parton collab “Have the Heart” and his collab with Chris Stapleton “California Sober”:

 

 


I absolutely love the variety of the artists and sounds on this album, and like it or not, Post Malone just proved himself in Nashville.

Don’t hate it. Embrace it.

 

 

Lady Gaga and Bruno Mars “Die With a Smile”

What happens when you combine Lady Gaga and Bruno Mars?

Easily one of the best songs of the year. Maybe the decade.

Lady Gaga and Bruno Mars deliver the vocal heat with “Die With a Smile”:

Yeah, that doesn’t have to grow on me at all.

But then again, how can you go wrong with those two?

Both artists are working on new music, and this collab definitely bodes well for whats to come.

Kudos!!!

 

Post Malone at The Opry!

\

Last night, Post Malone made his Grand Ole Opry Debut last night, and it went pretty dang well.

Like, standing ovation well.

Not a bad way to get people ready for his Country album “F-1 Trillion” which comes out tomorrow.

Here’s just a few of last night’s performances:

Dammnnn…

Posty killed it.

If this doesn’t get you ready for his new album, I’m sorry about your life.

Seriously, I hink Post Malone is more talented than many have given him credit for, and clearly, he has all of Nashville’s support, so I’m for it.

And for the naysayers, look, having an artist like Post Malone on the Country scene will only bring more people to discover the Country genre.

That’s not a bad thing.

Lainey Wilson Teases Title Track off Her New Album “Whirlwind”

Just a week and some change away from Lainey Wilson’s new album “Whirlwind”!

And, like most artists do these days, she’s teasing songs off of it on social media, like the title track, which sounds like it’s gonna be a banger:

A post shared by Lainey Wilson (@laineywilson)

I love the vibe of this song, and the strains of the 90’s Country sound in it.

Thank you, Baby Jesus, for Lainey Wilson.

“Whirlwind” drops next Friday, and you can get more info at http://LaineyWilson.com

Kelsea Ballerini “Sorry Mom”

I’m going to be honest. I wasn’t really feeling Kelsea Ballerini when she first came out with her debut single “Love You Like You Mean It” in 2015.  Of course, that was when Bro/Pop Country was at it peak.  With songs like “Love Me Like You Mean It” and “Hey, Boy”, I was underwhelmed. But Kelsea has really grown so much as an artist and songwriter, and her latest release “Sorry Mom” shows how far she has come:


As someone who has a really close relationship with her mother, and who has done some dumb things that I know she didn’t approve of, this song is something I can truly relate to. And I know so many other women (and I’m sure men, too) will relate. After this and her collab with Noah Kahn “Cowboys Cry Too”, I’m really excited to see what she has in store for us on her upcoming album “Patterns” out October 25th.
