"I signed my FIRST country music record deal. It might not mean anything to you but it means the world to me. Listen, I’ve always been off trend my whole life. I’ve Never been in the cool crowd. It used to hurt but it forced me to move alone, but strong. Just me, my mic, voice, pen, and God. I kicked, scream, begged, and pleaded to just sing what I wanted," she wrote via Instagram.

"I said f--k it! If I can't get invited to the party I’ll throw my own and that’s what I did. I packed up my s--t and moved back home to Tennessee. I deserve to do what I’m great at. It’s bigger than me. I represent the weird kids, the misunderstood, the have nots, the overlooked, women and men from all different walks of life. I am the underdog," the 42-year-old said.

The former Love & Hip Hop: Atlanta alum added, "I look forward to hitting stages everywhere to introduce the music I grew up on. A long hard road ahead of me, but I’m equipped for WHATEVER."
