The new song previews her forthcoming debut album
Lauren Watkins returns with “Mama, I Made It” just in time to debut at her hometown’s largest play, Nashville’s Nissan Stadium, opening shows for Morgan Wallen this weekend.
Driving in the same sonic lane as Kerosene-era Miranda Lambert, the upbeat toe-tapper written by Watkins, Rocky Block, and Lauren Hungate and produced by diamond-certified studio ace Joey Moi, finds Watkins in the eye of the storm, heartbroken and breaking things over a relationship gone off the rails. Pissed off and vengeful, she turns her co-penned phrases on a dime with fire and a wink, bragging: This train’s a wreck / it’s such a mess / and Mama, I made it.
“I’ve been dying for y’all to hear this one,” Watkins shared on socials last night. “Hope ya love it.”
The track is the latest preview to her anticipated full-length debut due this summer via Big Loud/Songs & Daughters.
