Kacey Musgraves reflects on controversy surrounding her breakthrough song ‘Follow Your Arrow' 12 years later.
When Kacey Musgraves released 'Follow Your Arrow' in 2013, she didn't expect it to emerge as one of country's most controversial singles. But it did. The third single from her debut, Grammy-winning studio album, Same Trailer Different Park, 'Follow Your Arrow' was quick to generate discourse within the country music community when it was released in October 2013. Musgraves, who was 25 years old when the song came out, received backlash for the song's references of same-sex love and recreational marijuana use. The Golden Hour singer-songwriter co-wrote the track with Brandy Clark and record producer Shane McAnally. With lyrics like, 'Kiss lots of boys/Or kiss lots of girls, if that's something you're into' and 'Roll up a joint, or don't/Just follow your arrow where it points, yeah,' the track made it onto Billboard's list of most controversial country songs of all time. While performing the song during the 2013 Country Music Awards, the lyric 'roll up a joint' was also censored and deemed inappropriate for primetime television. 'Oh my gosh, it was so controversial,' Musgraves told the Hollywood Reporter of the song in an interview for their May 2025 issue. 'It ended up tanking — it was banned by country radio. But I would never trade that for the love and the people it brought to my world. I'm not going to present a watered-down version of myself to be accepted.' Musgraves told the Hollywood Reporter that she didn't release the song, which went on to win Song of the Year at the 2014 CMA Awards, with the intention of being seen as a rule-breaker in country music. 'I'm just doing my job as a songwriter,' she said. 'When you look at country music as a genre and where it started, it is really textured, beautiful layers of real stories, heartbreak, things that aren't always easy to talk about. It's stories for the everyday person. And that's what always draws me back to country music: It's there for you, no matter what you're going through.' For fans of Musgraves, this sentiment couldn't be more true. On TikTok, fans have shared what the song means to them — and how it's helped them embrace themselves. Considered 'the queer fan's country music queen' by BuzzFeed, and the 'ultimate ally' by Them, Musgraves was the first country music artist to perform at the GLAAD Media Awards, which honors artists who use their platforms to spotlight the LGBTQ community. She also has a history of championing queer artists: She collaborated with Troye Sivan on the rerelease of his track 'Easy,' and previously toured with King Princess and electropop trio MUNA. The country music darling, who hails from Golden, Texas, told NPR in 2024 that while she did have a 'wonderful childhood,' she is from a 'very conservative' part of East Texas. Musgraves attributes her shift in perspective to an ex-boyfriend, whom she met after moving to Nashville. 'He was from a completely different upbringing than me, a liberal family in upstate New York. He had a ton of gay friends and he just sat me down one day and we had a real hard and honest conversation about it,' Musgraves said. 'He just helped me completely open up my eyes and see and I was just like, 'Damn, I'm so glad that I had the opportunity to get out of where I came from, and have my eyes and my heart open to this really wonderful community, and they've made me way more well-rounded.' Twelve years later, Musgraves still proudly plays 'Follow Your Arrow' at her shows. The country star played the song at numerous stops along her Deeper Well Tour in 2024. 'It was met with a lot of 'hell no's.' It was met with a lot of opposition,' Musgraves told a crowd in 2024, before launching into the song. 'They said, 'You're gonna go down in flames if you do this.' And I was like, 'Well, at least I'll be going down in flames for something I really believe in. At least it was my true self.''

Kacey Musgraves details extent of her past drug use... but laughs off the idea that she's totally sober
Eight-time Grammy winner Kacey Musgraves revealed she has significantly cut back on her marijuana use during an interview with The Hollywood Reporter. Although she laughed off the notion that she is completely sober, the country star, 36, set the record straight on whether she is still gets high and how often. 'I never said I don't ever partake,' she told the outlet. 'I just don't wake up and hit a gravity bong the size of my face anymore, which is what I did for a long time. But, hey, more power to whatever suits you.' Last year, it was widely reported that Golden Hour hitmaker was done with cannabis after she told The Cut that pot was 'not for this chapter' of her life. 'Maybe later, when I'm a 60-year-old lady with nothing to do and I'm just doing pottery all day, maybe. We'll see,' she said, at the time. Still, she said she wasn't quitting all mind-bending substances. During the 2024 interview, Musgraves also confessed to being a fan of psilocybin, the naturally occurring psychedelic compound produced by more than 200 species of fungi, aka magic mushrooms. 'When used with intention, I think it's a massive dose of compassion and reverence for nature, fellow humans, yourself,' she claimed to the outlet. In the title track to her sixth studio album, Deeper Well, released last year, she admitted that she 'used to wake and bake.' After those eyebrow-raising lyrics, she went on to declare she was 'getting rid of the habits that' she feels are 'real good at wasting' her time. During her chat with THR, Musgraves also reflected on how her 2013 track, Follow Your Arrow, which embraces weed and homosexuality, upset a lot of conservatives. 'Oh my gosh, it was so controversial. I was told not to [release the song] and all these reasons why,' she recalled to THR. 'I was nervous... it ended up tanking — it was banned by country radio.' Still, the singer insists she would never had traded that 'for the love and the people it brought' into her world. 'I'm not going to present a watered-down version of myself to be accepted,' she explained. 'Anyway, it ended up working out.' When asked if she can see how Follow Your Arrow helped make the country music scene more inclusive, Musgraves, a vocal ally for the LGBTQ+ community, clarified that she never set out to 'some martyr or freaking rule-breaker.' 'I'm just doing my job as a songwriter. When you look at country music as a genre and where it started, it is really textured, beautiful layers of real stories, heartbreak, things that aren't always easy to talk about,' she stated. 'It's stories for the everyday person.' Musgraves, who lives in Nashville, Tennessee, noted during the interview that she was on route to rural Williamsport, about an hour from her home. 'A good friend of mine has a beautiful farm on hundreds of acres,' the Texas native gushed. 'It's on the Duck River, which is one of the most biologically diverse rivers in the world. It has all these specific species of things that don't exist anywhere else.' While there, she raved about the 'peaceful environment' where she and her friends like to picnic and just live their 'best lives — barefoot, dirty, in the river.' 'It's so fun,' she said. Trips like these have, ultimately, influenced some of her most popular songs, like Space Cowboy, Butterflies, Cardinal and Oh What a World. Musgraves, who recently announced her return to the newly relaunched Lost Highway Records, pointed out that excursions like these and horseback riding have become 'an outlet for tranquility' in her hectic world. 'It's something that takes me outside of looking at my phone screen,' she explained. 'It gets me to look up, look out, breathe oxygen in.'

Kacey Musgraves Goes Full "Dime Store Cowgirl" for Ralph Lauren's Fashion Show
When you buy through links on our articles, Future and its syndication partners may earn a commission. When Kacey Musgraves said, "You can take me out of the country, but you can't take the country out of me," she was talking specifically about her closet. Despite her global success, the star remains true to her Golden, Texas, roots—in the music she writes, as well as the clothing she wears. The lyric felt particularly top-of-mind on April 17, when the "Deeper Well" singer sat front row at Ralph Lauren's Fall 2025 fashion show in New York City. Other A-list show-goers—such as Anne Hathaway, Naomi Watts, and Sarah Catherine Hook—channeled a posh, professional vibe, in khaki trench coats, neckties, and tweed, but Musgraves didn't waver. Despite the metropolitan venue, she came decked out in her Southern-girl best. Though she too, sported the brand's streamlined workwear, Musgraves did so with her trademark "Dime Store Cowgirl" flare. She chose a pair of sleek heather gray trousers and a simple white tank top, but was sure to add on plenty of country staples. As a tribute to her Texan upbringing, Musgraves accessorized with cowboy boots, Western-style statement earrings, and a brown leather belt covered in buckles. As a final touch, she finished with a beige 10-gallon hat that completed her outfit's neutral color story. Musgraves's country-chic ensemble may have been an outlier among the show's attendees, but she fit right in with the runway models. Staying true to his brand's own equestrian origins, Lauren wove themes of the American West throughout his newest collection. The designer showed suede suiting and boho ruffled dresses, styled with riding boots and silver jewelry. He also utilized romantic, vintage-inspired fabrics—like plum velvet and lace—to make each look feel like a modern relic of the Regency Era. This collection made clear that, for both Lauren and Musgraves, the South-Western aesthetic isn't just a passing fad. It's a way of life. $449 at Lucky Brand $160 at Stetson View Deal View Deal $79.99 at DSW View Deal View Deal
