Cassadee Pope has been hard at work on her sophomore album, including writing a lot of songs to possibly record for the project. Cassadee says, “I’ve been writing with some really incredible writers like, Sarah Buxton and Kelly Archer, Liz Rose, Brett James.”
She says she and Kip Moore even wrote a love song together, even though it wasn’t what she had in mind when she went into the writing session. She says, “It was funny, I was like, awe we’re probably gonna write some sassy up-tempo song about beer and whatnot, and he was like, ‘Yeah, I really want to write a love song.’ I’m like, ‘What?!’”
Overall, the messages in a lot of the new songs are empowering. Cassadee says, “If it’s not full on, ‘I can do anything, I’m invincible,’ it’s about being an independent person and really being a strong person, even the love songs.”
Cassadee’s duet with Chris Young, “Think of You,” just broke into the top ten on the charts, and is continuing to climb. There’s a good possibility it could become Cassadee’s first #1 country single.

Cassadee Pope – writing for new album :42
“I’ve been writing with some really incredible writers like, Sarah Buxton and Kelly Archer, Liz Rose, Brett James. Kip Moore and I wrote a love song. It was funny, I was like, awe we’re probably gonna write some sassy up-tempo song about beer and whatnot, and he was like, ‘Yeah, I really want to write a love song.’ I’m like, ‘What?!’ So, that was cool. But a lot of these are very empowering and that’s the message even if it’s not full on, ‘I can do anything, I’m invincible,’ it’s about being an independent person and really being a strong person, even the love songs.”
