I think there's an interesting discussion to be had about how we construct ideas of genre in the first place because, I mean, it's not like "country music" sprang from the head of Zeus fully formed, and it's not like people haven't been hybridizing rap and countey already and I think a lot of the boundaries being drawn are probably influenced by race. but I don't really have the energy, it's a Friday afternoon

Like the song though

Right...there are plenty of C-List rappers and country artists who have made songs together.

Lbr, country rap is a large contingent of country music now.

I'm not an expert on country music trends but it does seem like it's been kind of a thing for a while stylistically even beyond the C-list stuff. Even looking at stuff like bro-country.

Nelly and Tim McGraw, Jason Aldean and Ludacris, Snoop Dogg and Willie Nelson

ayrt

Yup, totally C-listers. /s Really, though, morieris seemed pretty skeptical about hybridizing at all. Maybe I read that wrong, though.

I listened to it recently, and besides thinking "Well, this is catchy,"....I agree that I can't see how people said this should be on the Country 100 until Billy Ray Cyrus hopped onto the remix.

It sounds more country than most of the pop songs on country radio. If pop singers Dan + Shay and Maren Morris are country, fucking Lil Nas X is too.

As a Lifelong fan of country who’s bored to shit with what passes as country these days (I sang Pam Tillis songs in the Farm Bureau talent show as a kid), I love this fresh take. It lampoons country while still BEING country as well.

For others interested in different takes on country, too, I encourage you to listen to Jun and the Texas Special. They’re a Tokyo-based Japanese country band—songs are all in Japanese but they sound straight out of a Tim McGraw or George a strait album, twang and all!

Dreams In Amber (the first in the clip) is my favorite. What makes country? I can tell you the song does not mention anything about tractors or the ol’ Swimming hole or a dog dying or farms. But please someone try to tell me that isn’t a band singing traditional country music.

Sounds like you have a very narrow view of genres and what fits into them.

listened...

It can't be country, I don't hate it.

Also, I was laughing at how much Billy Ray sounds like my uncle.

Neither was Big and Rich's Save a Horse Ride a Cowboy. Throwing in a violin and a banjo does not make it a cowboy song. But it doesn't work the other way, does it? It was totally a mix of rock and rap making it more neo rock.
