Ballerini Celebrates First Top 5

Kelsea Ballerini is celebrating the ascent of her debut single, “Love Me Like You Mean It” as it climbs into the Top 5 and continues to move up. The song is on Ballerini’s new CD The First Time, which was produced by Forest Glen Whitehead and Jason Massey. “As a new artist releasing a first single, all you want is for it to be heard, to make a good first impression,” shares Ballerini. “The fact that country radio is embracing it, is more than I could ask for. I want to hug everyone.”
