Country music singer-songwriter Thomas Rhett's wife Lauren would like for him to dump this particular song from his concerts...
Country music star Thomas Rhett’s wife Lauren always has his back, but doesn’t hold back when giving her honest opinion about his music.
“My wife is the first one to be like, ‘It’s not my favorite,'” Rhett recently shared with The Boot and other media outlets. “Or, ‘That’s one of my favorite songs you’ve ever written.'”
So is there a song that he cut against her advice? Yes, and it was a hit.
“She hated ‘Make Me Wanna’ with a passion. Still does,” he confessed. “Every year she asks me, ‘Are you taking ‘Make Me Wanna’ out of the setlist this year?’ But it worked. For the most part, though, Lauren’s been spot on.”
Although the singer-songwriter takes his wife and two young daughters’ thoughts to heart, he sometimes finds himself going after songs that didn’t go over well with his family.
“There are some songs that [none] of them like that I love too much to not cut, but for the most part, I listen to a lot of opinions. At the end of the day, I try to take all those opinions and put ’em in a pot and make a decision for myself,” the star continued. “But my kids do have a huge role in picking song, which is hilarious.”
