A feature in today's Los Angeles Times indicates that "What Are You Gonna Tell Her?" will be promoted to radio in June, with an album theoretically coming later this year. I think that is a good idea. The message is too important and with everything going on right now in the country/world, this stellar song could easily get lost in the shuffle. Hopefully by summer, things have made a turn and are starting to get back to somewhat normal, and this can be promoted properly. Really rooting for Mickey.

This song is a winner, beautiful and amazing lyrics. THIS should be the song to make her an A lister. (daydreaming much?) I do hope this smashes!

This song is beautiful and stops you dead in your tracks when you hear it. The lyrics are absolutely fantastic and pack a really powerful punch! I don't get emotional over songs that often, but this one brings tears to my eyes. The emotion in Mickey Guyton's voice is out of this world and gives you chills. Adore everything about this!

I don’t know if Capitol is still planning to get around to sending this to radio but they were at least brave enough to let Mickey put this out. Another beautiful song!

I know Mickeys original intent for this song, but i can’t help but think it also applies to what is going on now in the world. I hope Capitol pushes it to the radio. The world needs to hear it and i think maybe they are finally ready to listen.

This is not just a very relevant and important song for country music, it's actually a really GREAT song, period. It's huge 'win' in all fronts.
I'm so happy and proud of Mickey for sharing her perspective, one that enriches the country music landscape so damn much (even if it probably doesn't get the recognition it deserves)... I love everything about this ❤️

"Black Like Me" is even better than the song this thread is for. WOW. What a stunning song.

Mickey ain't playing with these last two releases!! Both are absolutely incredible songs with powerful lyrics and vocals, she has clearly proven that she needs to be a frontrunner in the genre. She's fantastic and out-of-this-world real... more bold and daring artists like her are definitely needed in not only country, but music in general.

"Black Like Me" is a MOMENT. I'm just awe-struck. I shared on my IG story that I loved it and she replied to me in a private message with heart & crying emojis. It isn't the first time she's acknowledge a comment I've made to her on social media either. I'm still holding out hope that something, literally ANYTHING, will happen with this girl. I'm getting tired of her talent being totally squandered. If we aren't going to get her on country radio, which would be a crying shame, then hopefully we'll at least see her carve out a niche following like Kacey Musgraves or Cam or somebody. I just want her damn album, above all else.

I'm in love with "Black Like Me". So powerful. So glad she shared this song.
Judging by first-day streams, it looks like it's going to pass "What Are You Gonna Tell Her?" streams in a week. I'd love if they push Black Like Me, even though country radio possibly wouldn't touch it.

I feel bad for thinking about strategies in times like these, especially with such a delicate subject. But had they released Black Like Me back in February like they first intended for Black History Month, maybe it would starting growing more as a single by now.

Not sure if it’ll be an official single or not but it’s there for radio if they want to play it. Many won’t but more Will.

This is a change to be a part of change that needs to happen with this genre.

It has much more impact now than it would've had if she'd put it out in February. If they'd done that, the song already would've been forgotten probably, because I doubt radio would've jumped on it. They actually might now with the pressure from society going on right now, and it's honestly her best shot.

Here’s hoping her team dumps the DOA “Heaven Down Here” and gives this one a shot. At least this is a good song.

I actually really like "Heaven Down Here." It's hard for me to rank the album/EP right now, because I had a positive reaction to nearly all of the tracks. Isn't this the single though? Just wondering since it has a single thread.

Just wondering since it has a single thread. It was going to be, and then it never got serviced. They pivoted to “Heaven Down Here” for the radio release, but this is picking up steam again following her ACM performance.

This is a great song, but also a great performance. The way she sings it it's perfect. Still loving this bit "What are you gonna tell her?/Maybe you can't/'Cause there ain't no way, you can't explain what you don't understand"

Mickey Guyton was a standout highlight from Wednesday night. Absolutely love her talent and I'm praying we get a damn album soon.
