Sometimes a heaping taste of their own medicine is just what the doctor ordered… and Megan Moroney turned that concept into a honky tonk heater. Just about a week ago, she released her highly-anticipated third studio album Cloud 9, which is off to a hot start as it debuted at #1 on the Billboard 200 albums chart, which is her first #1 debut on that chart, this week. It’s a huge accomplishments that coincides with Ella Langley finding her way back to the top of the Billboard Hot 100 chart with “Choosin’ Texas,” marking the first time who female country artists have topped those two charts simultaneously. You absolutely love to see it, and they certainly make country music look good… On the 15 song-tracklist Cloud 9 has to offer, I’ve been stuck on the two duets, “I Only Miss You” with Ed Sheeran and “Bells & Whistles” with Kacey Musgraves, but over the last several days, I’ve had “Medicine” stuck in my head, which Megan wrote with Connie Harrington, Jessie Jo Dillon, and Jessi Alexander. The lyrics find her admitting that she is happy to give her ex a taste of his own medicine, after finding out he gave his number to “an L.A. blonde,” responding by saying she “gave your quarterback mine.” To quite lyrics from her song “Wish I Didn’t,” hell hath no fury… The chorus is even more straightforward, where she asks how bitter it tastes to be the fool in the relationship as the rolls are suddenly reversed in terms of who is being the playboy, or playgirl, in this case: “I ain’t heard from you in three long days You won’t hear from me for five Oh, you gave your number to an L.A. blonde? Well, I gave your quarterback mine And you don’t like my short black dress Well, it’s going out tonight And if it hits a floor, it won’t be yours this time Is it bitter going down, down, down? You don’t like it too much, do you? Coming back around, round, round Ain’t as fun when it’s happening to you Oh, poor, poor you, now, who’s the fool? Say I’m messing with your head again Well, how you like the taste of your own medicine?” I mean, truer words have never been spoken… and as per usual, Megan says this one comes from personal experience, as she’s found that when a guy isn’t treating her right, and she turns around and does the same thing back, they don’t like it too much: “In my experience, anytime a guy hasn’t treated me well and I’ve gone and treated them anything close to the same way, they really don’t like it.” She added that she took a risk with some of the lyrics, particularly the line about “crying int he shower,” but she knew her fans would get it: “There’s a lot of lines in ‘Medicine’ where I’m showing my sense of humor, like when I say, ‘You should try crying in the shower, it’s really great.’ In the past I might’ve overthought things and asked if it was too weird to put that in a song, but now I don’t feel the need to be anything but myself. My fans know me by now, and they’ll totally get it.” Because there was so much buzz with the previously-released songs, a well as the one fans think is about Riley Green “Who Hurt You?”, I feel like some of the others haven’t gotten the attention they deserve, and at her core as an artist, Megan is an incredible writer and songs like “Medicine” really show that off. In addition, the production here is easily one of the most country songs on an album that certainly leans into her pop sensibilities in many ways, which makes me love it that much more. It’s fun, twangy, upbeat, and pretty dang vindictive… so I’m here for it. It’s one of those turn your volume all the way up on a sunny day and sing it at the top of your lungs songs, and you should definitely check it out if you haven’t yet: “Medicine” Megan also performed it on ‘The Tonight Show Starring Jimmy Fallon’ last night: Cloud 9 Tour Dates: 29 | Columbus, OH – Schottenstein Center 30 | Indianapolis, IN – Gainbridge Fieldhouse 2 | Chicago, IL – United Center 5 | Baltimore, MD – CFG Bank Arena 6 | Greensboro, NC – First Horizon Coliseum 8 | Atlanta, GA – State Farm Arena 12 | Louisville, KY – KFC Yum!

After an incredibly successful, sold-out inaugural event in 2025, Music City Rodeo will be back at Nashville’s Bridgestone Arena May 28-30. The Professional Rodeo Cowboy Association (PRCA) is returning to Downtown Nashville for another thrilling event filled with broncs, barrel racing, team roping, and country music. Music City Rodeo will run across three days, and each night will be capped off by can’t-miss performances from some of the biggest names in country music. Do the names Miranda Lambert, Charley Crockett and Jon Pardi ring a bell? If you really think about it, Music City Rodeo is three straight days of stars – both country and rodeo – taking center stage. After all, this is the largest rodeo east of the Mississippi and the largest in the entire Southeastern Circuit, and it’s important to note that the 2026 Music City Rode has been designated as an official Cinch Playoff Series Rodeo. What does that mean? Well, that designation will undoubtedly bring in the top rodeo stars Rocker Steiner, Stetson Wright, Hailey Kinzel, and over 30 other World Champions. In last year’s inaugural event, over $292,000 in prize money was paid out. This year there will be over $330,000 up for grabs. So there’s a lot on the line when Music City Rodeo comes to Nashville at the end of May. The 2026 edition of MCR is set to showcase some of the world’s best cowboys and cowgirls in a number of major events, and will feature the most decorated bullfighting duo in professional rodeo: Cody Webster and Dusty Tuckness. Last year’s Music City Rodeo was completely sold out all three days, so you’ll want to make sure you get your tickets before they’re gone. Tickets are on sale now!! Join us May 28-30 for three nights of PRCA ProRodeo action and full arena concerts from @mirandalambert, @CharleyCrockett, and @JonPardi… Lock in your seats while they're still available! pic.twitter.com/n8N4mDEtop — Music City Rodeo (@MusicCityRodeo_) December 12, 2025 And just in case you were wondering…. yes, Music City Rodeo is fun for the whole family. In addition to the rodeo competitions, there will be plenty of other, interactive activities like mutton bustin’, clowns, Rodeo Queens and much more for the entire family to enjoy. And the competition itself should be fierce, as the path to the gold world champion buckle now passes through Nashville. Then each night ends with a performance from a stellar country music act… it’s a win-win for absolutely everybody. Where else can you take in the best rodeo has to offer and some of country’s hottest performers all in one place? The first night of the event (May 28), the three-time Grammy-award winning superstar, Miranda Lambert, will take the stage. Then the next day (May 29), the Grammy nominated “country crooner,” Charley Crockett, has the honors of entertaining the Music City Rodeo crowd. And finally, multi-platinum artist, Jon Pardi, will certainly bring down the house with his Music City Rodeo finale performance on May 30. It’s a cultural celebration that brings together rodeo and country music in the heart of Nashville, Music City Rodeo is guaranteed to provide unforgettable moments.
