People are calling Maddox Batson country’s answer to Justin Bieber, and it’s easy to see why: while his vocal prowess is sophisticated beyond his years, he’s delivering his earnest country-pop songs about young romance wrapped in highly choreographed videos. And this 15-year-old Tennessee-singing sensation is completely unfazed by these lofty comparisons.


Batson first started making waves during the pandemic, doing covers (and GRWMs) with his dad. Now he’s playing the Grand Ole Opry, singing to sold-out shows of screaming girls. And it’s not just his solo work that’s popping off: he co-wrote Lana Del Rey and Quavo’s single ‘Tough.’ He opens up about the personal story behind that song (and some of his other hits), how a devastating sports injury was instrumental in his swerve towards music, towing the line between confident and cocky, TikTok fame, and much more.
