KANE BROWN: AMERICA'S HOTTEST COUNTRY ST...

JAMPOT PRODUCTIONS
About this episode

Kane Brown is a trailblazer in country music, with two diamond records, platinum albums, and chart-topping collaborations that have set him apart. Despite his massive success, his path has been anything but easy: Kane is someone who finds it hard to open up, so I was honoured to get a chance to sit down with him…


We started by talking about emotions—how Kane’s struggle to feel them deeply stems from a tough childhood marked by abuse from his stepdads, and constantly moving, attending over a dozen schools. He shared how depression made happiness feel out of reach, but learnt to communicate through his music which has gone on to connect with millions of people - starting on Facebook and refusing to quit, he built his profile to be one of the biggest country stars of today. Kane also shared with me how his understanding of success has changed since becoming a father: his children are his greatest success.


This conversation is the epitome of showing resilience; the strength to keep going, find hope, and change your own path, even when life feels impossible.
