Reba McEntire Sings About Heartbreak And Cheating In First New Country Song After 3 Years

Feb 26, 2019 by apost team

Reba McEntire decided to turn back to music after divorcing her husband of 26 years. After she and Narvel Blackstock called it quits, Reba knew that she could find strength in music. She wanted to release songs that would touch the heart and soul.

McEntire released “Sing It Now: Songs of Faith and Hope” in 2017. This was her first-ever album of gospel music. The album contained two discs filled with originals and remakes of some of her favorite gospel songs. The album was well-received by both critics and fans after being released. It also won a Grammy in 2018 for Best Roots Gospel album.

Although Reba enjoyed her first-ever venture into gospel music, she decided to return to her country roots when it came to her next album.

She began to tease the public about a new album while participating in an interview with ABC Radio. She mentioned that the album she had in the works could be one of the most country-driven albums she has ever to record.

She then revealed what the title of her new album would be, along with the cover art, track list, and release date. “Stronger than the Truth” is the album that fans have in store for them, according to McEntire.

She stated that she can’t wait for her fans to hear it.

Devoted fans of the country superstar can already tell that the album is going to be very country-based on a small snippet of music that the artist shared. The full track is now available, and as promised, it is all country.

“Stronger Than the Truth” certainly packs a hearty punch. This is the first country song McEntire has performed since “Just Like Them Horses” was released in 2016. McEntire did not write the actual song, however. Reba’s niece Autumn, along with Hannah Louise Blaylock, penned the lyrics.

While she may not have written it herself, it is definitely a song that Reba can relate to.

The song includes some of the more common country themes such as cheating and heartbreak. When you listen to the hit song, you can clearly hear the pain and emotion behind every word. We know it will continue to be a hit as more and more fans get to listen to the heart-wrenching lyrics.
