ASR: There were just so many men. JS: In suits. ASR: Telling you what you’re supposed to be or who you’re supposed to be when having this conversation across town. JS: I had to be a pop star because I signed on to be a pop star. No matter what, there was never going to be enough sales, there was never going to be recouping, because they would put so much into me trying to win. You’re a by-product of this company that’s making them money. I didn’t realize that until I was dropped in 2008 or ’09 by my country-music label with my first No. 1 country album. My country record was written in Nashville, and that’s where I felt very much myself. All of a sudden, there were these 360 deals and I wouldn’t sign. That was the first time I stood up for myself. But I was always defined by having a record deal. I had a record deal since I was 14 years old, so to be at the age of 28, 29 not having a record deal, I didn’t know where I was or what I was or who I was, and I didn’t know who I was working for. It took me a while to realize that I deserved to work for myself. Read the full interview with my sister, @ashleesimpsonross , now on TheCut.com.

“At some point along the way, it occurred to her that the music she liked to listen to and the music she could make didn’t have to be different things anymore. She owned her name, didn’t have a label, and didn’t have anyone (or more specifically, any man) asking her to sing a song that someone else wrote, while doing a little twirl someone else choreographed for her. And so, with a little Simpson-style cosmic urging from her kids, she came to Nashville.” Read the full article now on RollingStone.com! Article by: @marissarmoss

I sing because I’m happy, I sing because I’m free. His eyes are on the sparrow and I know He watches me. God told me I needed to feel the fear and do it anyway as I’m moving into my truth while embracing the beauty of uncertainty . And so I did… #NashvilleCanyon is the result of learning to hear my heart again, free from industry expectations. It’s about surrendering, letting my voice be my main guide, and trusting the journey ahead. Always inviting God into the room where music creates itself, with a voice that communicates on a spiritual level of grace without fear and allowing the music to be my main voice. Nashville Canyon: Part 1 is a FEELING. Now, with its release, I hope everyone that is meant to catch the vibes will wrap their heart and soul around it just like I have within their own journey. This project has kept me awake inside of my dreams. It doesn’t get better than this moment right here, right now, sharing this creative intuition with y’all. Listen now-link in bio.
My mentor, @tlabarbe , met my intuitive readiness to artistically push my own boundaries with her unique and limitless confidence, passion and enthusiasm. Soulfully rooted with the heart and free spirit of a dreamers conviction and divine collective connection, Teresa put me in rooms with incredible human beings and deeply connected writers who held me safe as I was becomin’ the artist God intended durin’ this life changin’ journey…this project would never have happened without her. My heart is damn near burstin’!!! Thank y’all for welcomin’ “Use My Heart Against Me” with open arms 🤍 Listen now usin’ the link in bio. #UseMyHeartAgainstMe #NashvilleCanyon
