Danielle Bradbery’s Unique Take on Ariana Grande’s “God is a Woman”

With her “Yours Truly: 2018” project, Danielle Bradbery proves once again that she isn’t afraid to step outside the country music box. Kicking things off with an unexpected yet stunning cover of Ariana Grande’s “God is a Woman,” Bradbery reimagines the pop hit with a delicate, soulful twist—one that effortlessly blends her country roots with a modern, ethereal sound.

A Bold Transformation

Originally released on July 13, 2018, Grande’s “God is a Woman” served as the second single from her hit album Sweetener. The original version, a powerhouse anthem filled with bold, soaring vocals, became an instant hit, reaching No. 11 on the Billboard Hot 100.

Bradbery, however, takes a different approach. She strips the track down, infusing it with a subdued, almost country-soul ambiance. Her soft, yet commanding voice brings an emotional depth to the song, making it feel more intimate and reflective. By doing so, she manages to honor the essence of the original while simultaneously making it her own.

A Personal Musical Journey

This cover is just the beginning. As part of “Yours Truly: 2018,” Bradbery is set to release three songs over three weeks, highlighting her favorite tracks of the year across different genres. In a conversation with Billboard, she shared how these songs deeply inspired her, reflecting her evolving artistry and broadening musical influences.

For country fans who appreciate fresh interpretations of mainstream hits, Bradbery’s “God is a Woman” is a must-listen—an enchanting blend of country finesse and contemporary soul.
