Blake Shelton‘s new song “Minimum Wage” is out now!

The country music super star shares that he’s actually had the track for a while now, “‘Minimum Wage’ is a song that I heard for the first time about a year ago…maybe a little but longer, and had a lot of ideas how I wanted to record this song.”

Blake recalls hearing “Minimum Wage” for the first time, “I fell in love with it instantly. I love the message of the song, and I love that it says something about how you don’t need a lot of money, you don’t need all the possessions in the world, you just need to have love.” And the best part for him, “The song on top of that…is just a blast.”

So, putting on his “judge hat” like he does on NBC’s The Voice, what is Blake’s assessment of his new song, “‘Minimum Wage’ is just all about having fun. Listen to this record, it’s got an awesome intro…which I love. It’s got a killer guitar solo…and I guess the singing is OK too.”
