It’s not totally dead. Cody Johnson is keeping traditional, Texas country music alive and well.

Never gets old. Been happening since the start of time. No cure.

Country music has ALWAYS incorporated the popular musical trends of the day....even disco.

That comes and goes...but the country part remains.

Yep. Cowboy music from the ‘30s - ‘40s had a lot of jazz.

Bro Country, Tractor Rap, etc., etc. The kids love it but it’s not for me. My dad told me the same thing when I listened to the Beatles. To each his own and that includes to generations.

I have no idea what that stuff they’re producing now is. One thing for sure, it ain’t country. I listen to Sean Hannity’s radio program. He has some Gawd awful noise as his theme. I think that trash is supposed to be modern country music.

Yep, certainly a factor, as well.

If you wear a cowboy hat while you’re singing, that makes it country. Right?
