20
21	!Tropes present in her work
22	* AcCENTUponTheWrongSylLAble: "80s Mercedes" has the line "Just keeps gett''ing'' sweet''er'' with age / She's classic through a''ny'' de''cade''."
23	* AdvertisedExtra: A barely-noticeable backing vocal on Music/ThomasRhett's "Craving You" and on Music/TaylorSwift's "You All Over Me".
24	* {{Bowdlerise}}: "Rich" has two examples: "Big-ass pile of dimes" becomes "Big, big pile of dimes", and the line "[[PrecisionFStrike Shit]], I'd be rich" gets a SoundEffectBleep in the form of a cash register ding.
25	* EarlyBirdCameo: Before having any hits of her own, she penned album cuts for Music/TimMcGraw, Music/KellyClarkson, Music/BrothersOsborne, and others.
26	* HeavyMeta: "I Could Use a Love Song" has her asking for a positive song to help her cope with heartbreak.
27	* IfIHadANickel: "Rich":
28	-->If I had a dollar every time that I swore you off \
29	And a twenty every time that I picked up when you called \
30	And a crisp new Benjamin for when you're here then gone again \
31	And a dollar every time I was right about you after all \
32	Boy I'd be rich...
33	* ThePowerOfLove: "The Bones":
34	-->We're in the homestretch of the hard times\
35	We took a hard left, but we're alright\
36	Yeah, life sure can try to put love through it, but\
37	We built this right, so nothing's ever gonna move it
38	* ProductPlacement: "My Church" name-drops Sirius XM's "The Highway" channel.
39	* ShapedLikeItself: In "Rich": "If I had a dime every time that you crossed my mind / Well, I'd basically be sitting on a big-ass pile of dimes."
40	* ShoutOut: "My Church" name-drops "Cold, Cold Heart" by Music/HankWilliams and "Ring of Fire" by Music/JohnnyCash.
41	* SignatureStyle: Her music is notable for the presence of luxury, money, and material wealth. "Rich", "80s Mercedes" and "Loose Change" are prominent examples.
