Ballerini released her much-anticipated sophomore album, Unapologetically, earlier this month and was also nominated for “Female Vocalist of The Year” by the CMAs (the award went to Miranda Lambert).
“’UNAPOLOGETICALLY’ means leading with your heart, trusting it, following it and not letting other people’s opinions sway it,” Ballerini revealed on her website. “From heartbreak to finding the love of my life and embracing the ‘in-between’ – this album is all in order, just like it happened. Life, loss, love… this is my story, unapologetically.”
The album showed Ballerini has a grown up, yet still very young woman. A progression from her first project.
“When I’m in ‘person’ mode, and I’m at home or with my friends or with my mom, I’m a kid. I let myself call my mom and ask her to make me soup, you know? But when I’m in work mode, and when I’m trying to be the artist that I want to be — and that this album deserves for me to be — I think that’s when I try to be an adult,” Ballerini said.
