Most definitely agree!! He's introduced me to alot of songs & artists I may never have run across because I'm retired and more of a homebody now. So barely ever listen to the radio anymore.... So now I get all my music advice from KZbin, mainly Grady's videos!! Idk of anyone else on YT that works as hard as he does putting out HONEST Country's Best & Worse lists. He doesn't go by the person's popularity, (like his honest opinion of Luke Bryan & FGL) he rates by their true talent, including every aspect of a good Country song-- lyrics, guitar-too much or not enough steel, acoustic & electric-- and then his honest opinion of how a song either moves him, or doesn't at all. Im sure not everyone out here always agrees with Grady, and that's okay..... we all have our personal favorites. But at least he's HONEST, and puts out true quality videos. I actually started a Grady's Playlist of ALL his videos, because I don't want to miss any! Then filling up a notebook of songs & artists he talks about that I know nothing about, or had forgotten about. So I for one really appreciate ALL the hard work he puts into each & every video! He has ALOT of subscribers, so I hope he himself is never an under-rated KZbinr, bec he's definitely one of the finest!!! #MadRespectForGrady

I started listening to Country in late 2017, when Cody Johnson’s album Gotta Be Me was huge in Texas. I listened to the radio a lot, and was lucky enough to hear his music on the radio since I lived in Texas. Basically the dude was the biggest independent artist probably ever. I mean, 80 mil streams on Spotify, 5 albums, sold out Houston Rodeo and no label? I think that when your independent you can only be played on radio stations in your state, so he basically got to the point that he couldn’t grow any more until he got signed. But, he stretched it out as much as possible, and really tested the limits. Being in Texas meant that he got a ton more airplay while independent than someone from Alabama would because the state is a lot bigger. I really don’t think getting signed was his goal, but eventually he went to the limit and had to. Hats off to him

I've been listening to his three albums a lot in the last few days. One of my least favorite country songs from the 2010s has to be Luke Bryan's "Country Girl (Shake it for Me)." I literally stopped listening to ALL country music after that. That's how much it affected me.

It's funny to think back 20 years ago that people were criticizing artists like Rascal Flatts for not being country. They didn't have the steel guitar but they had the soul, and that's what country has always been to me, across all generations, Hank Sr to Merle to George Strait. Today's country has no soul. It's not music, it's just white noise. And no one will remember it.

Eric Paslay's "She Don;t Love you She's Just Lonely" is the best written song of the last 10 years. It was nominated for song of the year, but i don;t truly believe it got the credit it deserved as a true country heartache song that should have been a monster hit

MERCURY" or Kellie Pickler - one of the guys when she says playing poker all night long whereas poker all night would have fitted perfectly for the structure

I attended a university an hour from Tyler Childers' hometown from 2014-2018, during his rise as a "hometown boy" in Eastern Kentucky. Everyone loved him, and trust me, he would get played at parties and everyone would go wild. It is so exciting to see him gain more nationwide success. I was ecstatic when he was nominated for a Grammy. Check out his song "Follow You to Virgie." It is about his friend's grandma passing away.

I think people need to understand that country music is changing. We might be in a bro/boyfriend country era, but it doesn't mean we have to hate everything coming from it. Don't get me wrong I don't like Luke Bryan and other pop country artists, but some songs are still nice to listen to even though they are not lyrically perfect. Some people grew in previous eras and dislike what is new, but I believe there is still a lot of good stuff coming from bro/boyfriend country.
