Crazy how real this stuff can sound. As Artificial Intelligence has become more and more prominent this year, creators (specifically on Tiktok) have been coming up with literally anything and everything they can think of to keep themselves and the internet entertained. From Spongebob singin’ Drake songs, to Donald Trump rappin’ “Gold Digger” by Kanye West, A.I. takes all the information it can from photos or one’s voice and cranks out some weirdly (and scary) realistic content. And as imagined, this thing has gotten a little out of control. One specific Tiktok user has been using A.I. to generate Taylor…
Two of the best up-and-comers in the game right now. Wyatt Flores recently joined Charles Wesley Godwin on the road for a short stint of shows out on the West Coast. Just after wrapping up their last show together in Washington last week, the duo took to social media for an ode to Chris Knight with a cover of his 2003 song, “The Jealous Kind.” Godwin recently featured a cover of the song back in February on his “Live From The Church EP” and if I’m being completely honest, I had never heard that specific Knight song before, or at…
This morning, Tyler Childers released his new song, “In Your Love,” the first taste of new music from the Appalachian artist in almost a year. Not only was the track released with an announcement of a new 7-song album coming in August, it was also accompanied by a music video that has fans divided on the subject matter.

While the song is completely different than Childers’ Purgatory era, and different from his already different…

Sure, his debut single, “Hicktown,” was released a few months earlier, but when your first impression with Country music listeners is something loud and rockin’ that they may not be completely custom to, you gotta wonder (for good or for bad) what else does this artist have to offer? Aldean completely switched gears and showed off his softer side in his second single (and first No. 1 of his career), “Why.” The mid-tempo is pretty much an apology ballad where…
A massive hit. Zach Bryan has become one of the biggest Country singers in the world and his rise and dominance in the genre doesn’t appear to be slowing down any time soon.
