Blanco Brown is one of the most creative artists in the country music genre. No matter what he is singing, he can reimagine any song to sound like a brand new track. Brown uses those skills on his rendition of the iconic country song, “Take Me Home, Country Roads,” out today.

Arguably one of the most recognizable songs in the country music landscape, “Take Me Home, Country Roads” is a song that many artists like to cover at their shows. However, Brown delivers a rendition unlike any we have ever heard before. Bringing a more modern flair to the song, the singer shows off his effortless vocals, while keeling with the honesty that the song portrays.

“Almost heaven, West Virginia // Blue Ridge Mountains, Shenandoah River // Life is old there, older than the trees // Younger than the mountains, growin’ like a breeze // Country roads, take me home // To the place I belong // West Virginia, mountain mama // Take me home, country roads”

On the new rendition of the classic, Brown brought his signature ‘Trailer trap” to the forefront, breathing new life into the already incredible song. Check it out below!

Blanco Brown Drops New Love Song “I’ll Never”

Blanco Brown’s brand new song, “I’ll Never” is out now, January 13th, on all streaming platforms. Listen to the brand new track below.

Nashville hitmaker and GRAMMY-nominated artist, Blanco Brown is a one-of-a-kind talent in the industry. Blanco Brown has certainly covered all spectrums of music throughout his country career. From the viral, number one dance hit, “The Git Up” to country trap collaborations with Nelly, the innovative singer-songwriter from Atlanta showcases a more vulnerable side with his brand new song “I’ll Never.”

The track is an incredible love song that will keep you swooning day after day. “’I’ll Never’ is about loving someone the way they need to be loved because everyone needs and deserves love in different ways,” Brown said in a recent press release. “Even if it means looking in the mirror and learning to love yourself just a little bit more.”

Written by Brown with Keith Justice and Allen Arthur, “I’ll Never” is quite possibly the wedding song of the year. Much like songs like Ashley Cooke and Brett Young’s “Never ‘Til Now,” “I’ll Never” feels like a warm hug. It is an emotional expression of love of all magnitudes, reminding us all that love is the universal connector. The lyrics center on a romance between two people and reminds listeners that love is one of the most beautiful and unique aspects of life. Brown’s stunning vocals mixed with backing steel guitar complete this beautiful country ballad.

“I’ll never stop loving you, holding you, kissing all on you  // I’ll never stop being me, doing all the things that I do // Even when I’m not around // You at least know a thing or two, // I’ll never stop, loving you, loving you”

This track follows Blanco’s latest releases of “Trap Still Bumpin’” with famed rapper T.I. and the funky “Let It
Slide” with the multi-platinum selling LOCASH and the beloved multi-faceted talent of the late Leslie Jordan.

Leslie Jordan, Blanco Brown, and LOCASH: “Let It Slide”

Leslie Jordan, Blanco Brown, and LOCASH collaborate on Leslie Jordan’s song idea, “Let It Slide,” out now on all streaming platforms. Listen to the brand-new collaboration below.

The world was devastated to hear about the passing of beloved talent and personality, Leslie Jordan nearly two weeks ago at the young age of 67. Known for his roles on screen and stage including “Will & Grace,” “The Cool Kids”, “American Horror Story,” and “Sordid Lives,” among others, he was just beginning his career as a singer, releasing a country/gospel album last year titled “Company’s Comin’” featuring artists such as Chris Stapleton, Dolly Parton, and Brandi Carlile. Today, we celebrate the release of his new track, his last gift to fans, “Let It Slide” with LOCASH and Blanco Brown.

Move over “Cha-Cha Slide.” This fun, pop-country tune is all about throwing your worries away and enjoying the moment. Lyrically, it’s simple and silly, and its funky rhythm mixed with the artist’s banter in between verses makes an amusing song perfect for a night at a honky-tonk.

“Let it slide to the left, slide to the right // Let it roll right off of your back, to your backside, get electrified // Let it roll right into your hips, shake it off like a Polaroid pic // Let it slide, slide, slippety slide // Kiss your blues bye-bye”

This song is right up Brown’s alley, who initially gained publicity with his 2019 hit, “The Git-Up.” This track fits LOCASH’s persona as well, known for tailgate hits such as “One Big Country Song” and “I Love This Life.”

Nelly Collaborates with Blanco Brown and Breland on “High Horse”

Superstar Nelly collaborates with Blanco Brown and Breland on their new song “High Horse,” out now.  Take a look below as we dig into the song.

Multi-platinum-selling superstar Nelly has dipped his toes into the country world a few times over the years. Now, the rapper is solidifying his staying power in the genre officially releasing a country-inspired album Heartland, due out on August 27th. Last week, Nelly released the second song off the project, “High Horse,” featuring Blanco Brown and Breland.

Full of country twang and vocals, “High Horse” is another funky collaboration. Similar to Nelly’s collab with Florida Georgia Line, “Lil Bit.” The three artists are proving that genre lines do not need to be so solid. Brown, Breland, and Nelly combine all their unique talents and voices in a song that is truly a genre of its own.

“Get up off that high horse // Get up off of this train // Get up off of that high horse // And drop that thing on me // Get up off of that high horse // Get up off of this train // Get up off of that high horse // And drop that thing on me”

Nelly has had crossover success in the country genre since 2004 with Tim McGraw on “Over and Over” He is in a league of his own. It is encouraging to see him take other promising artists under his wing. Blanco Brown and Breland are both rising stars in their own right!

Blanco Brown Releases New Song “Nobody’s More Country”

Blanco Brown released a brand new song, “Nobody’s More Country” available now, June 18th, on all streaming platforms. Check out the brand new track below.

Finally, Blanco Brown returns with another incredible creation. After a scary accident in 2020, the singer-songwriter is back with a restored lease on life. His brand new song “Nobody’s More Country” is everything we hoped it would be.

The new song is a certified bop. It is catchy, effortless, and unifying, all mixed together. Written by Brown with Tyler Hubbard of Florida Georgia Line, Jordan Schmidt, and Quintin Amey, “Nobody’s More Country” is a song that showcases the singer’s Georgia roots, groovy beats, and his vast life experience. On the track, Brown shares everything he loves about his home state. He also mentions places that country music has allowed him to travel to. Ultimately, he comes to the conclusion that there is “no place like home.”

“I’ve been back and forth from here to Georgia // Carolina to California // Across the hills of middle Tennessee // I’ve been mountain high in Colorado // Seen some things but one thing I know // No one loves the country more than me”

“I’ve been all around the world and have seen people of all ages, nationalities, and backgrounds uniting over their love of Country music—the music ties us together,” shared Brown in a recent press release. “It’s the sound of home, it’s the sound of my Georgia heart. It’s hard to imagine anybody loving it more than me.”

We could not agree more! We’re happy to see Brown blazing the trail for equality, acceptance, and love in country music. It doesn’t hurt that the new song is so fun too.

Parmalee’s “Just The Way” featuring Blanco Brown earns them number one song as the tune hits the top spot on the country charts this week.

It has been seven years, since country band, Parmalee found themselves at the top of the charts with “Carolina.” Now, their smash hit with fellow artist and friend, Blanco Brown, “Just The Way” revitalized their career and exponentially grew their prospective fanbase. Today the upbeat song found its way to the top of the country charts, marking Brown’s first number one on country radio.

“I love you just the way God made you // Girl, he don’t make mistakes // What you call your imperfections // I call beautiful, babe // So let my eyes be your mirror // And you’re bound to see it too // ‘Cause I was made for loving // Just the way God made you”

Parmalee and Brown take turns singing their prospective verses. During the chorus and bridge, the band and singer show how effortless their voices mesh together, as well as, how incredibly talented they all are.

Exclusive Blanco Brown Showcase in NYC

Blanco Brown

Last night songwriter, artist and producer Blanco Brown took the stage at Bowery Electric to perform an exclusive showcase hosted by his record label Broken Bow Records. His debut song “The Git Up” is going viral, highlighting the catchy nature and fun dance moves reminiscent of The Cha Cha Slide, The Macarena or even going further back, The Electric Slide.

At last night’s showcase, Brown kicked the night off after a warm and humbling welcome from BBR Music Group’s EVP, Jon Loba.  He told the story of the first time he met Brown and how different and exciting he thought his music was. Brown told Loba, “I want music without classification, music without borders.”

Blanco Brown NYC

For traditional country fans, Brown’s music may stretch the genre too far past the limits however, his talent is undeniable. He opened his set with Sam Cooke’s “A Change Is Gonna Come” and from the moment he hit the chorus, his silky smooth vocals captivated the intimate crowd. He then performed the songs from his debut, self titled EP including “Georgia Time”, “Ghett Ol Memories”, and “TN Whiskey”.

For anyone willing to continue to support the genreless music movement, Blanco Brown’s tunes are catchy and you won’t be able to stop bopping your head to his unique beats. While “The Git Up” is the very first introduction, the artist manages to introduce a new subgenre to the country music umbrella, what he likes to call “Trailer Trap”. Read more about his backstory and how he grew up listening to country music with his grandma here.
