Reba Breaks Her Own Record With Powerful “Trailblazer” Collab Featuring Miranda Lambert & Lainey Wilson
Country icon Reba McEntire has just set a new personal milestone—and it’s all thanks to a powerhouse anthem celebrating the women who paved the way in country music. Her latest collaboration, “Trailblazer,” featuring Miranda Lambert and Lainey Wilson, has not only captured hearts but also earned Reba the biggest streaming debut of her career.
A Song Written in Tears, Inspired by Legends
It all began when Miranda Lambert and Lainey Wilson teamed up with acclaimed songwriter Brandy Clark to pen a tribute to the fearless women of country music—those who gave today’s stars “a seat at the table.”
From Dolly Parton to Loretta Lynn, Patsy Cline to Tammy Wynette, the lyrics of “Trailblazer” pay homage to the past, while celebrating the deep friendships and unity among country’s fiercest female voices.
The song struck such an emotional chord that Miranda and Lainey reportedly cried while writing it. They knew exactly who needed to sing it: Reba McEntire, a true legend and mentor to generations.
Reba’s Emotional Reaction: “I Couldn’t Find a Flaw in It”
When Reba first heard “Trailblazer”, the emotion was instant.
“I remember listening to it in the dressing room,” Reba told Billboard. “I couldn’t find a flaw in it, not a word. It was that great. I was very emotional when I heard it.”
And fans felt it too.
Trailblazer Debuts at the 2025 ACM Awards
On May 18, 2025, the trio delivered their first live performance of “Trailblazer” during the ACM Awards—and the crowd was visibly moved. The emotional performance quickly became the standout moment of the night, drawing praise across social media and entertainment news outlets.
Shortly after the show, Reba uploaded the performance to her official YouTube channel, where it skyrocketed to over 780,000 views and more than 600 heartfelt comments.
Streaming Explosion: Reba Breaks Career Record
