Does country music still

Exists. Reading an article this morning from an awards show last night and post Malone won for best male artist and Beyonce won best female artist. This wasn't even some satirical news article. So that country now....

Let me answer your question with a question..

John Cash, country royalty


was it country when he remade NIN's Hurt?


Then let me answer your question...

No.. country music doesn't exist anymore. Not the country I grew up with anyway.. it became soft pop.

This is the most country song I've heard in the last decade... and these guys aren't even country.

Country absolutely still exists but you won’t find much of it on award shows.

Love this song

We are in a pretty genreless era right now. Sort of a post internet streaming music phenomenon. At least that is the mainstream situation.

Indie scene is kind of the other direction. There is an incredible wealth of niche genre albums of incredible quality. A few folks you might want to check out depending on what you are looking for: Sturgill Simpson, Tyler Childers, Vincent Neil Emerson, Joshua Ray Walker, Charley Crockett, Fred Eaglesmith, American Aquarium, Reckless Kelly.

Also, as a certified Beyoncé hater, I listened to her new record after all the buzz and thought it was pretty incredible, but there is no accounting for taste.

This whole Beyonce country thing is honestly an embarrassment to the music industry. The fact that you can have a billionaire pop start buying country awards... it's a slap in the face to the women like Ella Langley, Kacey Musgraves, and Lainey Wilson who are actually making music that still sounds pretty country. I skimmed through Beyonce's album to see if there is anything even halfway decent on it and it's just trap beats and auto tune, but because she is wearing a cowboy hat on the album cover it's considered "country."

All awards (not just country or music) seem to be based on what or who is trending at the moment. It has nothing to do with the best.

Will they eventually require the country music voters listen to the music like they are going to make the Oscar voters watch the movies before they vote?

I wouldn't put much faith in the AMA's to be an accurate measure of Country Music. AMA,s tend to lean heavily towards the pop culture.

Country music hasn't been the same since the early 2000s, once they started allowing all these crossovers to put their own spin on what country music is....its been garbage.

if you think country music is gone (which it is, Hank, Loretta and George have rolled over in their graves) just sit tight, country rap is coming.

No. Country radio is awful. Only people keeping country afloat are Sturgill Simpson and Tyler Childers. Yet I feel Nashville's influence has always been around Tyler.
