“‘You Ain’t Woman Enough’ is such a fun, tongue-in-cheek song that I’ve loved since I was a kid! When I got the chance to record my debut EP, this Loretta Lynn classic was the first song I wanted to tackle. I was excited to add my own unique twist and make it feel a bit more Kayla Rose. I’m really proud of how it turned out and hope everyone enjoys it as much as I do!”
