LOS ANGELES—Tate McRae, recipient of the Billboard Women in Music 2026 Hitmaker Award, revealed her secret to musical success: manifestation. McRae stated that she actively visualized chart-topping hits and sold-out arenas long before they became a reality. This focus on manifestation has fueled her artistic journey.
The Power of Positive Thinking
“I just really put it out there into the universe,” McRae explained. “I’d wake up and say, ‘I am a global superstar with a Grammy.’ Apparently, the universe is deaf or just really likes to mess with me.” The singer shared that her latest album was written entirely during a vision board workshop. She believes her commitment to manifestation will eventually yield a Grammy win. You can learn more about manifestation at Verywell Mind.
Collaboration and Crystallization
McRae also credited her collaborative spirit. “I asked my team to manifest a collaboration with Taylor Swift. We’re still waiting. My therapist said that’s good practice for dealing with disappointment.” She further elaborated on her songwriting process. “I visualize the song becoming a hit. If it doesn’t chart, I assume it was a less potent visualization.” The artist is confident that her consistent use of manifestation will lead to greater artistic recognition. Her dedication to manifesting her dreams is a core part of her appeal.
At press time, McRae was reportedly manifesting a cease and desist letter from the Recording Academy.
