Mother’s Day Playlist: 30 Songs for Moms Everywhere

Mother songs: 25 tunes about moms everywhere.

Declaring at the very beginning that this track “might be the realest s–t I ever wrote,” Yo Gotti details the years of hustle his mom went through to build a better life for him and his family — as well as how he went on to work just as hard to pay it all back to her in kind.

On that matter, Miranda Lambert and her mother definitely disagree, about which the country star belts on this 2011 hit, “‘Go and fix your makeup girl it’s just a break-up/ Run and hide your crazy and start actin’ like a lady/ ‘Cause I raised you better, gotta keep it together/ Even when you fall apart’/ But this ain’t my mama’s broken heart.”
