I’ll readily agree to that.
Many of the old country music stars had their self inflicted demons, but at least they wrote great country songs and played great country music and stayed the hell away from topics they knew nothing about.
This new breed are a bunch of damned liberal pajama boy SJW frauds in glitter jeans with fake drawls and forced twang.
The classic country artists generally had the roots required to give country music its heart and soul. I don’t think that many people these days have those kinds of connections, the world’s just too homogenous now, in spite of all the “diversity”.
