    On a night dedicated to honoring the game-changers of country music, rising star Ella Langley stepped into the spotlight as she received the Rising Star Award at Billboard’s Country Power Players 2025. And it was none other than Lainey Wilson — a modern country powerhouse — who handed her the honor, adding a meaningful layer to an already emotional moment.

    Held at Nashville’s Marathon Music Works, the annual event brought together the heavyweights and up-and-comers shaping the genre today. But the evening’s standout moment arrived when Wilson, herself a former recipient of the same award, took the stage to introduce Langley.

    “She’s not just a voice — she’s a force,” Wilson said. “Ella’s songs hit hard because they come from a real place — and country music needs that now more than ever.”

    Langley, known for her unapologetic lyrics and southern-rock edge, walked onstage to a standing ovation. Clearly moved, she thanked her family, team, and the artists who paved the way — but it was her heartfelt shoutout to Wilson that brought the room to its feet.

    “To be given this by Lainey — someone I’ve watched, admired, and learned from — it means the world,” she said. “This isn’t just about me rising. It’s about women in country rising together.”

    From Grit to Spotlight

    At just 25, Langley has already carved out a bold identity in Nashville. Her raw, rock-tinged country sound and magnetic live presence have earned her a devoted fanbase and critical buzz. In 2024 alone, she opened for major artists, hit Billboard’s Emerging Artists chart, and was spotlighted by CMT as one of their Next Women of Country.

    Wilson, whose own rise has been marked by fearless individuality and critical acclaim, emphasized the importance of staying true in a genre that often values tradition.

    “It takes guts to be yourself in this town,” Wilson said. “Ella’s not afraid to show up exactly as she is — and that’s what’s going to keep her star rising.”

    A Signal of What’s Next

    The Rising Star Award has become a bellwether of future icons — past winners have gone on to win GRAMMYs, headline major tours, and redefine what country music can be. With Langley now among their ranks, it’s clear she’s on a path toward lasting impact.

    Closing her speech, Langley turned to the next generation of artists:

    “Keep writing, keep showing up, and don’t wait for permission. Country music has room for your voice — I promise.”

    As the night rolled on with tributes to industry leaders and hitmakers, one truth stood out: the genre’s future is in bold, fearless hands. And with Ella Langley leading the charge, the next chapter of country is looking unapologetically powerful.
