[@sherricooley2572]

@@rachelwagner1400 They are correct, for sometime now country radio has been pop country, rap country, bro country, crap. It’s a sad day when artists like George Strait (the king of country) and Alan Jackson, both who have had a tremendous amount of successful recordings can’t get air play on a country radio station. It’s nice to see a young voice embracing a traditional country sound. I wish him a successful career.
