Platinum by Miranda Lambert
Platinum is the fifth studio album by American country music artist Miranda Lambert, released on June 3, 2014, through RCA Records Nashville. Its lead single, "Automatic", has reached the top 10 on the Billboard Hot Country Songs and Country Airplay charts. The album debuted at number one on the Billboard 200 with sales of 180,000 in its first week, marking her highest peak on that chart. It also marked her fifth consecutive number one debut on the Top Country Albums Chart, making her the first artist in history to start her career with five number one albums.
Miranda Lambert is known for being a renegade, unafraid to let it all hang out—and this is probably her loosest album of all. She makes <i>Platinum</i> a party, opening up her door to a host of talented friends, including Little Big Town on the slow-rolling, R&B-flavoured "Smokin' and Drinkin'" and Carrie Underwood on the blues-rocking roof-raiser "Somethin' Bad". And whether she's delivering a honky-tonk ode to aging, like "Gravity Is a B**ch", or the wry, folky anthem of anachronism "Old Shit", Lambert sounds supremely comfortable in her own skin.
