Who is country singer Lily Rose?
Lily Rose, a Georgia native, burst onto the country music scene in 2020 with her viral smash hit, Villain. Her unique blend of country-meets-R&B sound resonated with listeners, propelling the track to the top of the iTunes all-genre chart and SiriusXM's The Highway Hot 30 Weekend Countdown.
Rose's debut project, Stronger Than I Am, was released in 2021, further solidifying her position as a groundbreaking artist in the industry. Her music combines personal lyricism with hooky sonics, bridging the gap between genres and captivating a diverse fanbase.
In the era of social media, TikTok played a significant role in launching Lily Rose's career. By sharing her music on the platform, she caught the attention of her now-manager, Rakiyah Marrshal, leading to a record deal with Big Loud/Republic Records.
Villain climbed the charts, reaching No. 6 on Billboard's Emerging Artists chart and No. 36 on Hot Country Songs. Her advice to aspiring artists on TikTok is to "stay authentic "and connect with their audience through "genuine expression."
Lily Rose's impact goes beyond her music. In 2022, she became the first country music artist to win a GLAAD Media Award for Outstanding Breakthrough Music Artist.
