Screw the CMA's

I know one Jason Aldean song, My Kind of Party, which I actually like. Otherwise, not my kind of music.

 

Seeing the story about Gannett using AI for preps gamers made me think country music will probably be improved when they start using AI to write lyrics to new songs.

 

I assumed they already are considering Top 40 country requires references to girls in short shorts, driving on a dirt road, drinking on a tailgate, the troops and loving America.

 

Lawd have mercy.

I assume with this collection of talent opening for Zach Bryan, that means he’s made it.

 

Isbell in a stadium. This seems a like a trial run for the next level.

 

Zach Bryan has the best openers ever. At a festival next year, he’s got Billy Strings, Turnpike Troubadours and Charley Crockett.

He once said he wanted to be big enough to play stadiums, but without the financial need to do so.

 

Today in Zach Bryan: No. 1 on the Hot 200 albums chart, No. 1 on the pop chart.

Where Did Zach Bryan’s Enormous Chart Week Come From?

Is this what Grady Smith seems to think it is?

 

Have you looked at Zach Bryan concert tickets? Holy shit, I could see three Isbell shows for one ZB concert. (Crossing fingers I get Tyler Childers seats for April.)

 

Is it just me or has country music shitcanned every artist (outside of Underwood) who has been in the business for more than 10 years?

 

For mainstream/radio country, it seems like the shelf lives are pretty short. Maybe fans are more into the moment than the artist.

Toby Keith was whining about how he can’t get radio play, and he had a long run at the top and I assume could churn out the same type of songs today.

 

I'm kind of just psyched that now Kacey Musgraves has a #1 to her credit.
