Kelsea Ballerini Says Top 20 Single “Miss Me More” Has an Important Message for Women: “You’re Always Worth Standing Up For”

Kelsea Ballerini has another Top 20 hit on her hands with her current single, “Miss Me More,” which is No. 17 on Billboard’s Country Airplay chart after 19 weeks.

“Miss Me More” was penned by Kelsea, David Hodges and Brett McLaughlin at a time when Kelsea says she was rediscovering herself after a bad breakup. The tune is featured on Kelsea’s 2017 sophomore album, Unapologetically.

As Kelsea told Kix Brooks of American Country Countdown, “Miss Me More” has an important message—specifically for women.

“It’s kind of my sass-bomb on the record, but really when you listen to it, it really is about fighting for yourself and knowing that you’re worth it and worth fighting for,” says Kelsea. “I just feel like in our world right now—specifically right now for females—it’s important to know that you’re always worth standing up for and fighting for, so I’m proud of it.”
