Emily Ann Roberts Turns Home Renovation Into a Country Hit With Playful New Single “Whipped”

Emily Ann Roberts has a gift for finding a great song in an everyday moment. Her new single “Whipped,” out now via Sony Music Nashville, turns the chaos of home renovation into a playful, spunky country track that’s fun from the first second to the last.

Roberts wrote the song with Jeremy Spillman, Trent Willmon, and Ryan Beaver, drawing inspiration from her husband Chris and all the projects he’d taken on renovating their first home together. “This song is playful, dramatic and fun from the first second to the last,” she shares. “I can’t wait to play it live.”

That live energy is coming soon. Roberts joins Cody Johnson for his Live ’26 Tour in the U.K. and Ireland later this year, a high-profile run that puts her in front of some of country music’s most passionate audiences. She’s also actively writing and recording new music alongside select headlining dates across the country.

“Whipped” is a confident, charming single from a rising country voice who knows exactly how to connect with an audience. It lands with warmth, humour, and the kind of effortless relatability that makes country music work at its best.
