I mean a fair bit of old country music was just "I love it here, but sometimes it sucks, but it's right where I want to be" and taking pride in that. It seems like a lot of modern music has just distilled and broken that into "I'm gonna get fucked up and laid and if you ain't from round here then git out".
The soul just got sucked out of it and the scraps got wrapped in plastic and makeup.
I was driving through western Washington near Idaho recently, scrolling through the radio to see what they had going on out there, and the song literally went "find you a girl who loves her daddy, and talkin bout babies makes her happy" likeeee cmon this is straight up Christian white nationalism dog-whistle, let us be honest with ourselves.
I love Lucinda Williams
If you like country, you need Euro Country. Ciara and the gang have plenty of soul, they're feckin' class.
