When Lainey Wilson stepped onto the CMA stage, you could feel the electricity before she even sang a note. This wasn’t just another awards show performance—this was a homecoming. The reigning queen of modern country music brought dirt, desire, and diesel to Nashville with her new single “4x4xU,” and every heart in that arena was riding shotgun.
The song is a perfect blend of grit and groove—a country at its core, yet laced with fiery swagger. Lainey sang about freedom, love, and wide-open spaces with the energy of someone who’s been there and lived every word. From the way she moved to the roar of the band, it felt less like a performance and more like a celebration of the country soul.

Bridgestone Arena exploded with cheers. Even fellow artists were caught mouthing the lyrics and dancing in their seats. Social media lit up, calling it “the most Lainey thing ever” and “a performance CMA history won’t forget.” Fans praised her confidence, stage presence, and how she managed to stay 100% country while still pushing the genre forward.
If “4x4xU” is the wild ride, then “Watermelon Moonshine” is the warm summer night you never forget. This track shows Lainey’s softer, nostalgic side—and proves she’s just as powerful when she slows it down.
