Why Chris Stapleton Can’t Get Into the Country Hall of Fame - Secret History Revealed

[@TasteofCountryMusic]

What do you think? Should Chris have to wait another 12 years (minimum!) to become Hall of Fame eligible?

[@firstlady...]

Chris should definitely be eligible!!! He's a legend!

[@owenhall08]

No he should be eligible he is a country music legend.

[@lesawells849]

There is no way Chris Stapleton should have to wait to enter the Hall of Fame. A fabulous songwriter, gifted singer, and above all else a good person! Chris has written so many hit songs, and whether he recorded them or they were cut by someone else, they are still hits that he has sung

Chris Stapleton is amazing. So if he cant get in it's there loss not his.

[@kyliepollert8341]

As for Chris' other songwriting credits, how about Montgomery Gentry's "I Got Drunk", from their "You Do Your Thing" album? I knew that song for years, but didn't know it was written by Chris until a few years ago!

[@DianaVanGorden]

I think Chris is shy and humble. I really think it was Morgane that pushed him. We all have imposter syndrome. I do think he is not a “look at me person” so his songwriting feeds his soul. I am forever grateful that he did get on the stage. The two shows I have seen him perform life were amazing!

I don’t think he should wait 12 years, but Chris is far from being done. Way to many more #1’s to be written.

I love Chris Stapleton, he is a legend. Tennessee whiskey is one of my favorite songs. He has a voice that just transcends and he should be in the hall of fame.

[@mikaylas27]

But he is. I was literally in the Country Music Hall of Fame last year and he has the most in it… an entire wall actually - and it’s big. Why are y’all saying he’s not? 😅

[@paulmcneil609]

His rendition of the Star-Spangled Banner at the Super Bowl brought tears to my eyes and I’m a Canadian👍🏻🇨🇦🎸🇺🇸👍🏻

[@sherrybaldwin2544]

Who really cares, He’s way beyond needing them, Some that are in the Country Hall of Fame are sure not worthy to be there.. kinda pitiful!

[@PattySimkins-qk6ol]

I love Chris Stapleton!

[@Mr.NoName1972]

Chris Stapleton will get into the Country Music Hall of Fame. Chris Stapleton is the greatest country music singer alive today.

[@MrONELAST8]

Tennessee whiskey was not written by Chris Stapleton many artists have covered it since the 50's I think but if he's eligible why not it's not going to change him or his writing style. Kris Christopherson is beyond deserving for what he has contributed to the country music industry and beyond.

[@kyleregan9879]

No-one has stated that. He made it popular with a new generation

[@robinpalmer5260]

Who is in the CMHOF that doesn’t deserve to be there?

[@MaxRiley]

Sorry guys but I don't have 20 minutes of my life to spend to find out why he can't be in the country hall of fame. Can please someone recap why? Thanks

[@angelajean65]

I disagree that JT overpowered that whole performance at the CMA. I think the first half was Totally owned by Chris the second half was definitely JT.

[@linhunnicutt6556]

Jeannie Seely should have been inducted to the Hall of Fame years ago.

[@Pcordova484]

Cole Swindell should be eligible for Country Hall of Fame ❤

[@ChrisMartzWeather]

He’s good, but hasn’t had a long enough career or impact on future generations.

[@Pcordova484]

@@ChrisMartzWeather He has done more then he ever gets credit for!

[@Pcordova484]

@fredfj07628 fine

[@ChrisMartzWeather]

@@Pcordova484 he is not eligible yet for consideration. It’s really as simple as that. If he keeps punching out good songs that become smash hits like “She Had Me at Heads Carolina” or “You Should Be Here,” then absolutely agree.

Chris is great. But canadian music hall of fame is slower than molasses. Harry Hibbs still isnt even on it. His family has been waiting for over 25yrs
