Maddie & Tae have their first top ten hit with their debut single, “Girl in a Country Song,” and they are so thankful that being great singers and songwriters doesn’t require any math or science. Both girls are 19, so high school wasn’t too long ago, and Maddie says science was her least favorite subject in school, but more specifically, science that involved math. She says, “I did not like science because it was really complicated. I liked biology, stuff like that was interesting, but chemistry and physics and stuff, good Lord I could not do it. Math and science should not be together. Well they should for the experts that do that, but not for me.”
Tae agrees that math was her downfall in school. She says, “I have a very photographic memory and so in all the other subjects all I’d have to do is like memorize something and then take the test and be good. But math, you actually have to learn it and know what you’re doing and no, couldn’t do it.”
Maddie & Tae just released their four-song EP, which is available now wherever digital music is sold.

Maddie & Tae – least favorite subject in school :37
Maddie – “Mine was science. I did not like science because it was really complicated. I liked biology, stuff like that was interesting, but chemistry and physics and stuff, good Lord I could not do it. Math and science should not be together. Well they should for the experts that do that, but not for me.”
Tae – “My least favorite subject definitely was math. ‘Cause I have a very photographic memory and so in all the other subjects all I’d have to do is like memorize something and then take the test and be good. But math, you actually have to learn it and know what you’re doing and no, couldn’t do it.”
