So I think you’re painting to way to broad a bush on country music. Yes a lot of it is the twangy stuff about trucks and tractors, but there’s also a lot of heart felt songs about love and loss that are way more serious and thought provoking that other popular music. Honestly I see similarities to some rap and hip hop. Don’t be the elitist music snob that many of our fellow midwesterners would claim you to be.
