Can’t Lainey be counted as big vocalist?
What she did on Heart Like a Truck ...
Personally I don’t like big vocalist and throughtout country music history I don’t think there are many..

I still think Lauren Alaina could've nailed that power ballad niche for the new generation, but she literally hasn't released anything to country radio that even appeals to that void that she could so easily have filled. Gabby Barrett is the closest thing to fulfilling that space right now, and she's also floundering lately despite having the vocal chops and the material to lean into that market easily. Not the "Like My Mother Does" & "Eighteen Inches" erasure LMMD 100%, but it was a bit on the generic side. I LOVE it personally and think her vocals are the strongest selling point of it, but it was a song that at the time of her recording it had been already cut by several other female artists and just didn't scream "breakthrough" hit.

The big glory note on HLAT is a bit of an anomaly for her imo. Lainey Wilson never gives me powerhouse vocalist vibes; she has a strong/solid voice, but she's more Miranda Lambert stylistically to me. Comfortably country with a lot of emotive/storyteller capabilities, but more understated. For me "big" vocalists would be the likes of Lauren Alaina, Mickey Guyton, Gabby Barrett... and not too many else in recent history. There's probably a few others that escape my mind atm.
