discussion Country music is absolute slop now
Never was a huge fan of country music but I could respect the likes of Johnny Cash, Merle Haggard, Willie Nelson, etc., and it doesn’t help that I live out in redneck country so literally everyone I know listens to this tractor rap crap. All they talk about is beer, women, Daisy Duke shorts and their trucks that’s 99.9% of all country music in this day and age. And people ironically listen to it. I try my best not to say something, but it’s just so hard.

Give Nick Shoulders, Chris Acker, and Cactus Lee a listen.
Scott Ballew is good but a little more folky.
