The Nashville-based artist Dylan Taylor has always been the person in the room willing to say what everyone else is thinking, but too polite to mention it. Growing up between Atlanta and Nashville, she got her musical education from her dad, Karl Braun, a former rock singer turned entertainment attorney, and family friend Harley Allen. But the real lessons came from life itself: navigating addiction, finding recovery at 20, and learning to rebuild when everything falls apart.

“What if the people with the biggest hearts ran the world instead of the people with the biggest bank accounts?”
“Billion Dollars” is Taylor throwing down a challenge disguised as a song. There’s no committee-approved messaging here, just one person asking a question that should be simple but somehow isn’t: what would change if we cared about people as much as we care about money?
The song moves, it breathes, it makes you think without forcing you to feel a certain way. It merely reminds us that art can still be dangerous and that songs can still challenge the way we see the world.
If you’ve been looking for music that actually says something, Dylan Taylor’s “Billion Dollars” might just be the song you’re looking for.
