Yes, Carrie Underwood has a baby Isaiah song for her new album
Carrie Underwood is hard at work on her next album, and there's a good chance she'll include a song inspired by her son, Isaiah, who was born in February.
"I kind of tried to stay away from it," Underwood told Paste BN backstage at Wednesday's CMT Music Awards, where she won three categories, including video of the year "I didn't want to force anything or have anything be cheesy or weird, like 'Oh, she had a baby, so she's singing about her baby.' It just kind of happened one day."
Underwood's pretty sure the song about her son will make the album, but it's not a given. "I'll cut anything" from the album, she says. "I have no loyalties to any song, even if it's one I wrote. But I think it'll make it on there."
The singer — who looked fantastic on the red carpet and when she performed her single Little Toy Guns — says she has "more than a good start" on the album. "We're taking things in sections," she says. "it's like, with these three songs, we know we're good, so let's do those. We'll do those, I'll vocal them, then we'll pick another group of songs. I'm figuring out the last few, I think.
"There are some things on there that are definitely familiar, but there's a lot of growth that has happened, as well. It's going to sound a little bit different — still the things that fans will obviously know is me. I'm not going crazy or anything , but it's a little bit of a shift."
