November 11, 2015 @ I agree. Others with a more selfish perspective dont ever want to see true country music become accepted in the mainstream because theyve built their entire identities around being oppressed as a traditional country fan.

Well, Lavigne started her career out by releasing an album that I still consider to be her most mature to date..then gradually continues to grow increasingly immature with each subsequent album as a whole and seems to have no clue how to grow up with her initial fans. Luke Bryan and Tim McGraw, among others, is the chosen one who will finally rescue us fans of good country music. Well, Stapleton may very well save at least the keyboard warriors with an inferiority complex who are somehow still without an Internet connection.

Where you dont have to wait to hear or read the credits to know whos singing. November 11, 2015 @ 12:21 pm. All Im asking is for certain traditional country fans to pump the brakes a little bit before anointing Stapleton the most talented/end all/conqueror riding in on a white horse to save country music. Hunter Hayes wrote every song and played every instrument on his DEBUT major label release but he gets no love around here. Traveler is a great album, period.

Stapleton is the James Buster Douglas of country music today. 12:52 am, Jeb Barry November 11, 2015 @ At one point in 1979, despite being one of the best-selling artists in the history of country music, he was bankrupt and destitute, living in his car, weighing around 100 pounds and living off of junk food. But are any of these truly terrible songs from a songwriting perspective, or do we just hate them more because of who sang them, and how they were produced? 09. For the airplay he got, anybody would write what he wrote. Then he sought out Cobb and here we are. Again, I think Hayes has true talents, especially with musicianship and melodic composition. I had no idea what he looked like at that point (really until Trigger wrote a piece on him). 11:51 am. Just because Timberlake is more liked than most pop stars in country and beyond, doesnt remove the fact that hes still a pop star, and one who got his start in a boy band to boot. 11:56 am.

Robby Turner Great point! Stapleton doesn't deviate from what he does best: simple, honest story songs that lean heavy on his once-in-a-lifetime voice. Why? 1. Trigger one question has been eating at me since the CMAs. Haha. Oh snap. Stapletons name has been on a number of songs that certainly havent done any favors in furthering the hopes of either substance or country roots making a resurgence in the mainstream. But still, to think Sturgill had an influence on ANYONE that led to a #1 album and 3 CMAs is a story of its own. I always think of it likes this..A kid graduates high school, lands a construction job and gets married. But Timberlake was also one of the catalysts for all of this success. Chris Stapleton will be a superstar within a year or two. I feel like Im having to defend the opinions of other people. Ryan Real Country Music will be gone.

Its just the marketplace for petes sake, and damn it, Im tired of the implication that I should second-guess myself for NOT flipping through radio stations and scrolling through iTunes as if I were a minuteman on patrol.
