Thursday 12/22/22 8pm ET: Feature LP: LeAnn Rimes – God’s Work (2022)

God’s Work opens with “Spaceship,” a show stopping ballad where LeAnn Rimes is yearning for deliverance, suggesting that the album will be filled with the kind of showstoppers you’d expect from a vocalist who took home the crown on the fourth season of The Masked Singer. She may retain a taste for grand gestures, but God’s Work does indeed deliver upon its titular promise: it’s not a gospel album but rather a spiritual journey, one infused with questioning and hope. This interior quest allows Rimes to look far beyond herself, a widened perspective that is assisted by a number of guests including Aloe Blacc, Mickey Guyton, Ben Harper, Robert Randolph, Sheila E, Ledisi, and Ziggy Marley.

Margaret LeAnn Rimes Cibrian (born August 28, 1982) is an American singer, songwriter, actress, and author. Rimes rose to stardom at age 13 following the release of her version of the Bill Mack song “Blue”, becoming the youngest country music star since Tanya Tucker in 1972.

Rimes made her breakthrough into country music in 1996 with her debut album, Blue, which reached No. 1 on the Top Country Albums chart and was certified multi-platinum in sales by the Recording Industry Association of America (RIAA). The album’s eponymous lead single, “Blue”, became a Top 10 hit, and Rimes gained national acclaim for her similarity to Patsy Cline’s vocal style. When she released her second studio album in 1997, You Light Up My Life: Inspirational Songs, she moved towards country pop material, which set the trend for a string of albums released into the next decade.

Rimes has won many awards, including two Grammys (both in 1997 for New Artist & Best Country Female Vocal Performance), three ACMs, a CMA, 12 Billboard Music Awards, and one American Music award. She has a total of 8 Grammy Award nominations, 1 for Song of the Year (1997 – “Blue”), 1 for Best New Artist (1997), 1 for best country song (1997 – Blue) and 5 for best country female vocal performance (1997 – “Blue”, 1998 – “How Do I Live”, 2007 – “Something’s Gotta Give”, 2008 – “Nothin’ Better to Do”, and 2009 – “What I Cannot Change”).

She has released ten studio albums and three compilation albums and two greatest hits albums, one released in the U.S. and the other released internationally, through her record label of 13 years, Curb Records, and placed over 40 singles on American and international charts since 1996. She has sold over 37 million records worldwide, with 20.8 million album sales in the United States according to Nielsen SoundScan. Rimes has also written four books: two novels and two children’s books. Her hit song “How Do I Live” was ranked as the most successful song of the 1990s by Billboard magazine.

Artist Countdown

Saturday 5/8/21 12pm ET: MaxCountry Saturday Artist Countdown: LeAnn Rimes Top 30 Hits

American singer LeAnn Rimes has released 12 studio albums and placed 32 singles on the Billboard Hot Country Songs chart since 1996.

At the age of nine, Rimes released her demo album in 1991 on an independent label. Disc jockey Bill Mack became aware of Rimes’ album and was impressed by her voice, and soon began to cultivate a plan for Rimes to make her breakthrough in the country music industry. Rimes recorded Mack’s self-penned “Blue” and released it as a single in 1996, and it became a major country hit, propelling Rimes to her breakthrough only at age 13.

The album sold over six million copies in the United States. Her second album, You Light Up My Life: Inspirational Songs, is the only album to ever debut at number one on three individual charts at the same time. It spawned an extended mix of the number two pop hit, “How Do I Live”, which brought Rimes to crossover pop stardom. Rimes’ later releases focused on the pop music market. After the commercial decline of her 2002 album, Twisted Angel, Rimes released the album This Woman, which returned Rimes to recording country music.

Rimes is mainly known for her pop hits in Europe, Australia, and Asia. Her 2002 pop album, Twisted Angel, went gold in Australia. In 2004, The Best of LeAnn Rimes album, reached number two in the UK and was certified platinum. A remix edition of The Best of album was released in Europe later that year. In 2006, she released the pop album, Whatever We Wanna, internationally due to a rise in sales of This Woman after “Something’s Gotta Give” was released as a single.

In the United States, Rimes’s success is primarily from her country hits. The 2007 album, Family included two Top 40 country singles, as well as “What I Cannot Change”, which hit number one on the Hot Dance Club Play chart in February 2009. LeAnn has also garnered Dance Club success with remixes of “Nothin’ Better to Do”, “Headphones” and “Good Friend and a Glass of Wine”.

Rimes has sold over 37 million records worldwide to date, with 16.5 million albums and 5.5 million singles certified by RIAA. Rimes was ranked the number 17 Best Selling Artist of the 1990-99 decade by Billboard. She was also ranked at number 184 on Billboard 200 Artists and number thirty-one on Country Artists of the 2000-09 decade.
