Justin Fisher
America but also the American music genre known as country.

How is it still acceptable to talk about country music as a monolith? If you tried that with any other genre no one would take you seriously.
John Williams
it was never alive. you were sold a lie
Zachary Reed

1980. George Strait killed country music.
Ethan Sullivan
Terrible.
Charles Reyes
Dwight Yoakum when he was still country. Johnny Cash before his Americana series.
Levi Foster
Nah, that would be Garth Brooks.
Elijah Gomez
it was dying for a while but 9/11 killed it for good
Jackson Cooper
I'm not sure how you can see Gene Autry as redneck. He was about as clean cut Hollywood Country as they got back then. Now if you want the real hillbilly stuff you got to go a bit dustier than that.

probably mid-70s, which is when we saw more country-pop crossover hits than ever before. Even non-country stars like Olivia Newton-John were called "country" back then. Before then, country songs that were very popular nationwide tended to be country songs, not pop hits that had a little twang to them.
Vietnam killed country music.
Noah Jenkins
He is the one who introduced that stock sounding 80s overproduction that became the popular sound into the 90s to today. His recordings sound like a fucking robot.
Joseph Johnson
(You) have shit taste.
Brody Sanchez
based on being a fucking drone lol
Jacob Hall
You listen to garbage. None of those nerds can sing a hook. You probably listen to fucking Johnny Cash but not Waylon Jennings.
Bentley Sanchez
1975, John Denver
