“I’m baking sweet potato pies tonight, but first let me play in this camera with my new hair color and celebrate my INDEPENDENCE day,” K. Michelle posted to Instagram. “I officially own MYSELF and all my upcoming music rights. I can now put out music anytime and place I want and OWN it! I look good and feel good…Celebrate every win in your life.”
After parting ways with Atlantic Records in 2019, the singer embarked on a career as an independent artist and decided to go after her lifelong dream of singing country music, something she alleged her label didn’t see as a possibility. “Basically, I was told that going into R&B was the only route or at least the easiest route,” she said, according to PEOPLE. “So, that’s what I did. But there was always this little piece of loneliness and a sadness in me because I couldn’t do what I know I was supposed to do.”

Her dream would come true on Nov. 9, when K. Michelle took the stage at the Country Music Awards alongside Best New Artist winner, Jelly Roll, to perform their take on The Judds’ classic “Love Can Build A Bridge.” The “Can’t Love A Man” singer received a standing ovation and was brought to tears by the moment.
“I’ve prayed and cried to be able to be myself and just sing the songs in my heart. Many of you have witnessed the years of No’s and reasons why I couldn’t sing my song. I never and never will give up or in,” she said in an Instagram post. “That would be like giving up on who God made me. I’ve always said country aint something you can just pick up; it’s a lifestyle, it’s what your born into. To receive a standing ovation on a stage I dreamed of being on by being myself is an unexplainable feeling.”
K. Michelle is preparing to release a country music EP in 2024.
