Roy Acuff would agree I reckon he is the King of Country Music after all.

What do you expect when the hip-hop "style" permeates everything nowadays. I was doing some clinicals at a rehab clinic when I was doing research for my degree and all the music that would be played day after day would be hip hop; did not matter what demographic of people were there for the clinic services.
I made the mistake after a week of listing to the same stuff to ask if something else could be played and I immediately was called a racist.

If that is the bar for being a racist they have removed any meaning that word once held.

Anyway yall need to remember good music from country stars.

There's still plenty of real country out there. It's far removed from CMT and pop country radio stations.

There is some , I do love me some Derailers

Well said! you beat me to it but thats OK because my assessment of it would have been a bit more critical and opinionated....

Country hasnt been country in a long time. Hearing all of those skinny jean wearing wannabe country guys singing about a "hard days work" makes me laugh. I bet their hands are soft as silk.

CMT and the rest of those rhinestone cowboys can pound sand.

This just emboldens my belief that country has lost its way. They are now Blue State Country. They wear the hats and sing about drinking, trucks and beaches.. but thats about it.

What I hate is the Country/Rap fusion that was getting all the dumbos exited about "the future of County" just a few years ago. BLECH!!!

Be careful! the "woke" will call you a racist!

Meh, that's just the new badge of honor. I've moved more towards the direction of actual racism since the wokeism and BLM started.

So, if I hate NFL, NBA, and Classical music, am I a racist for that too???

At any rate, CRT indicates I was born racist, so I've decided to embrace it.

 

[RobMa]

Don't get me started on crt (will not capitalize the abbreviation because it does not deserve it)...

Heard one of those too... AWFUL


"Hick Hop", lol. Love it, I'm going to use that.


^^this is an astute observation. I've been saying this for years. There are a lot of parallels between rap and country music. You might hear ACDC at a Honky Tonk but you'll never hear Nirvana or Elton John. But I am always surprised how many times I've heard an old Dr. Dre track. A lot of these country boys like their sound systems and their bass just as much as their urban counterparts.

OK, let's start a BEST COUNTRY SONG EVER list. I'll beging with what I believe to be the greatest country song ever written...."He Stopped Loving her Today" George Jones. Top that.....

'Desperado Love' by Conway Twitty.

Dang man, that is what I was going to pick even before I got there in your post!!!

I'll add: "All My Ex's Live In Texas" and "Don't Let Your Babies Grow Up To Be Cowboys"

Most hated: "Make The World Go Away"
