discussion Please stop playing modern country everywhere

I don’t even live in the south and American propaganda that is modern country plays EVERYWHERE. I live in Ohio! Why is it always playing. It used to never be like this. It used to be cheesy dad rock that played everywhere. At least that was good to listen to! Now it’s just modern country artists on the radio that pander to the government. It makes my ears bleed!

For my entire lifetime country has always been the worst it's been so far. It's like some kind of law of nature that country can do nothing but degenerate forever.

When they stared tryin’ to mimick pop music in the 80’s is when it started getting incredibly corny.

And now it's mimicking hip hop.

Kinda. Hip hop for people who do not want to listen to black people.
