Kane Brown has a “secret weapon” he’s almost ready to break out: his wife, Katelyn Jae. After teasing a duet with the fellow singer, Kane has revealed more details about a very real, in-the-works collaboration. Kane and Katelyn have recorded a song called Mad at This World. Kane didn’t write the tune, nor has he revealed a release date for the track, but based on his description, it’s a timely one. Kane says it’s “basically a song calling out everything else that’s happened in 2020, from the tornadoes destroying Nashville, California getting hit by those fires, and all of that. It’s basically saying, ‘How could I be mad at this world when this world gave me you?’”
