Composition "Fight Like a Girl" is a country song about female empowerment. The song was inspired by the events of #SaladGate in 2015, when a country radio consultant said that women didn't deserve a lot of airplay on country radio, because they were the tomatoes and garnish of the country music salad. Shorr and her two fellow Song Suffragettes, Hailey Steele and Lena Stone, wrote the track in response to those comments. Critical reception "Fight Like A Girl" was discovered during a Song Suffragettes' performance in late 2015.

Tomato-gate
Tomato-gate (also called SaladGate) was a 2015 controversy in country music, stemming from comments made by radio consultant Keith Hill to the country radio trade publication Country Radio Aircheck, regarding the under-representation of women in the playlists of country music radio stations.
